FX File Explorer. Super fast, feature-rich, and customizable, free with no ads and tracking.

The uncomfortable part about the Sportster was actually how unexpectedly aggressive the riding position was. I expected laid-back similar to my GZ250 which is also a cruiser.

I am starting to think of ADVs as the SUVs of motorcycles. Usually, big, tall, off-road capable, comfortable, not particularly sporty, expensive, and trendy.

At the moment I am extremely budget-conscious so I’ll be sticking with my 250 unless I find a smoking deal for another motorcycle. Currently I’m a college student that doesn’t really need a motorcycle, but I really wanted one. Where I will be able to get a nice motorcycle is if I can spend my future car budget on a motorcycle instead…

I’ve never had premium, mostly out of spite after the forcing ads on unmonetized creators and removing the dislike count, once I was able to afford it. But I’ve seen some other post on Lemmy with the “products you may like” appearing on a premium account.

I’ve seen people getting a “products you may like” in the suggestions, with premium. There is no way to remove that (other than uBlock origin)

It’s not just that, it’s also random content totally outside of your interest (I watch gaming and motorcycle content and it tries to feature some foreign holiday celebration videos lol) and worse, “products you may like.”

If I pay this kind of money, I expect an API to user-respecting third party apps.

That’s what they should do. Allow use of Reddit-style third party apps (before the API debacle) for premium users.

It’s not about paying, it’s about still getting these stupid featured pop-ups after paying.

This is the true reason why I don’t have YouTube premium. This is quite an awful experience for a supposedly premium subscription. Why pay for premium if the experience is better using free methods?

Please corporations, treat paying subscribers well.

I currently have a '06 Suzuki GZ250. I got it 3 months ago and already have put 1600 miles on it.

I’m already getting the itch for a faster motorcycle, though. I first test rode a Harley Davidson Sportster 48, which was fun and tourquey but kind of heavy and not as comfortable as I expected (Harley = cruiser = comfortable so I thought). I then made the decision (mistake?) of test riding a Triumph Trident 660, and holy crap that was so much fun, I need it in my life lol even though I can’t afford it.

I also had an unexpected “adventure” getting stuck in the mud recently when trying to go off the beaten path. Dual sports have way too high seat heights for me but maybe I should get an ADV bike?

God help me the day I try a supersport bike. Make sure I don’t submit to squid-dom…

Forza Horizon 5. I like to just drive around the map for a while, and maybe do a race or two, until I inevitably get bored after an hour or so. Repeat every week.

(until I bought a real life motorcycle to scratch that itch, and no, I’m not racing or being dangerous on my motorcycle)

Israel managed to get rid of Netenyahu for a year or two but then he regained power.

10k gets you a brand new Yamaha MT-09: A sick-looking naked motorcycle with a 3 cylinder 118hp engine. It’s really frickin fast.

They dropped it in the newest Xperia 1 V. Still kept all of the other great features though.

How does a country of 1.4 billion have 6 billion people with less than 1000 RMB/mo of disposable income?

I’m being as safe as I can. I’m ATGATT and I started on a beginner bike without much power.

I have an organ donor on my license. But I’m not trying to kill myself, I’m just following my heart.

It seems like fewer people in my generation have motorcycles because 1) we have less money (although you can save by replacing a car with one) than previous generations, and 2) the older generations constantly push the narrative that having a motorcycle is equivalent to having a death wish, which circles back to the point that they shouldn’t be spying on us all the time.

I am Gen Z and I’m not fine with that. I chose to go to college far from where I grew up so that I would be independent and free and do stuff on my own accord, like buying a motorcycle.

With how locked down mobile is compared to desktop I think it’s a good thing to start with mobile

I don’t have a car because I’m a college student, but I do have a 2006 Suzuki GZ250, a small cruiser motorcycle. It’s my first vehicle that I own. I absolutely love riding it, even though a Prius is faster, this feels much faster because it’s a manual transmission motorcycle, and gets better mpg.

Unfortunately, I need to replace the battery soon as it seems to have some parasitic loss when not ridden for several days. I want to DIY it to save money, but I can’t unscrew this impossibly tight worn screw mounting the cover to access the battery.

I think it should be a flat number of years like 20 years, giving the author plenty of time to exclusively control his IP and then afterwards they can still profit because they can still make things from the same IP and sell them to people knowing that they were the founder of the IP.

I feel like the death of the author clause gives a perverse incentive to murder the author so that their IP becomes public domain sooner.
