    Need suggestions for a high-end laptop

    Stinkpads?!?! Were you not exposed to consumer grade garbage at the time??

    Need suggestions for a high-end laptop

    There was also a brief period of time where some companies were exploring phase change immersion cooling, with a fluid like 3M Novec. I would embed a video but I can't find the visually impressive one that I'm thinking of now. I think they gave up after being unable to overcome the consumer...

    Some gaming laptops actually do have barbs for a water cooling loop. It is rare though

    Chain lubricant

    I use gear oil. I barely bother with any cleaning of the chain, but lately I have been giving the sideplates a cursory wipe. 90 weight might be optimal for whatever reason, but honestly I think using different weights/viscosities will barely make a difference. As far as motorcycle chains go I...

    Who is this guy? Sikorsky S-76C C-FBLU

    I completely disagree. Blackhawk = big and scary military thingy to really sell the idea that we are doing something to the contentious neighbours. Them being leased also makes it easier to drop them if the puppet show becomes unnecessary

    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    "1600 bucks on Marketplace" "That's a lotta money" "That is a lot of money" "No that's a ******* good deal, you can't even get a street bike that runs for 1600 bucks, boys" "Didn't you get the Ninja for less than that?" "Dude I paid 2200 bucks for that Ninja" "The green one?!" "You got ******"...

    2025 Auto Insurance rates

    CAA has been relatively painless for me. Rider's Choice is a broker for them, which makes it even more convenient. I would still switch away if there was a substantially better rate somewhere else, but so far they've been the best for a few years running now

    Cheap helmet review by Ryan F9...options under $200

    I'm gonna guess it's because the distributor didn't order them, so they just don't exist here

    DO NOT automatically renew, DO start a new policy with the same company

    I am very surprised that they wrote you the new policy and didn't just tell you to FOAD.

    Kawi 500cc Hybrid

    I went in knowing I don't like this guy's format but I still gave up at the halfway mark. I can't tell if he's using a script that is supposed to make him look like a moron, or if he is actually winging the entire video. @adri could make a video 500% better

    Getting someone's attention

    Riding on the QEW eastbound today, near the Centennial Pkwy slow down, I noticed a Civic that had an obviously flat tire. Traffic was slow but did not come to a complete stop so I couldn't pull up beside him and yell at him - I honked at him, flashed my lights, but could not get the driver to...

    Air India Crash

    There's basically three possibilities: -The design of the switches was flawed and DID allow them to be bumped off -They were switched off due to some muscle memory process (A happened, therefore I automatically do B, C, etc), possibly relating to a different aircraft -They were switched off due...
