I stopped watching after GRR because of the genocidal war they are waging against Yemen. It is good people are starting to notice, but sad that the deaths of thousands of starving people weren’t the main impetus.

To all those people complaining about traffic, we have here in the states an event called Critical Mass where basically every bike enthusiast gets together and blocks traffic for close to an hour. Town Mayors have participated in it, as well as LeBron James. And the amount of profit generated is zero, it’s just fun. I…

So just set up a cosplay shop on consignment and seperate ownership (100 percent consignment) within the go kart shop....If I’m renting a go kart and you happen to want to wear clothing from this other retailer I can’t stop you...

The lengthening list of behaviors that you have to practice in order to avoid paying too much for a game that you may not want:

My wife and I have an abiding belief that every person on the planet should be made to work at least one year in the service industry, be that retail, food service, customer support, or what have you.

The idea behind this belief is that while having walked a mile in the company shirt won’t stop everyone from shitting…

“a chocolate selection from the world”

I’d also like to personally apologize to anyone affected. When I uploaded my footage through our system yesterday, I thought it would be cool to show off the new monster and a really fun hunt. I submitted this footage without any idea that something like this was even possible, particularly for something like…

It was a mistake. I’ve explained more thoroughly in another comment under this post. We’re sorry.

As a software engineer who doesn’t work in the video game industry, I’m in full support. Video games are probably the most difficult and complicated type of software to make, but somehow at the same time the people who make them are paid much less and treated much worse than people who make any other kind of software.…

NOW USB’s great time to unionize. With unemployment at ~4% it’s harder for companies to find replacements. So a threat of firing ever union member is weaker. That’s why the WV teachers won.

While we’re talking about sports event mascots, allow me to brag a little and share with you the mascots for 2018 Asian Games. Which will be held in Indonesia this summer.

I think you mean this impression:

I understand the surprise, and I agree that this bike is overpriced. Bikes are like any equipment for a particular activity, though: there is an entire market to satisfy enthusiast/professional needs and preferences. Musical instruments have a similar pricing scale and many cost more than cars. Like instruments, bikes…

My roommate is a semi-professional rider and his bike easily costs around 5K. It’s made from a singular piece of carbon fiber.

While I know that $2700 can be a shocker, that is not even approaching the high end for a good road bike BUT...

Depends on the components usually . A lot of custom road bikes are really expensive. Check out this article, I want to know who is spending 470K pounds for a Trek. https://www.redbull.com/ie-en/most-expensive-road-bikes

No, it’s a Rockman bicycle.

but seriously, the bike is slightly overpriced. MSRP on a higher end aluminum frame bicycle with Shimano 105 components should be $1500-$1800. You’re paying the extra money here for the paint job.

But he’s got 2 kids. How does that happen?

Yeah, sorry about Nerd Rage being on hiatus. I got sick during the holidays and other work for other clients took over my regularly-scheduled-Nerd-Rage-time.
