Hard to go wrong on a Japanese bike. They cover everything from sport, cruiser, and off road at all engine seizes. I know you said not really into the Harley stuff, but the sportster 883 is a decent entry level and is often used as a project bike (has a huge aftermaket to support this). Honda Rebel 500 might be a good alt too.

Triumph and Royal Enfeild make some good retro styled stuff. Tho I ahve heard that RE is not that good in terms of reliability, but they have improved according to some reviewers (at a min they are rather cheap and i guess it ties into your mechanic hobby)

How far do you need to on when you are on the highway? Pretty much any small engine should be able to reach 60mph, but I wouldn’t want to do a sustained 65+ road trip on a 300cc or less bike.

Soros HR is no joke!

Some what of a tangent on Christmas is that there is the “War on Christmas” narrative. I am always curious about what it is supposed to mean. The Christians that are into it often take capitalism to be good as an axiom the way they do their own faith. Which is at odds with their culture war as capitalist firms are what drive the secularization of Christmas. Would a commercial with Jesus on the cross saying he is thirsty and having a Roman Soldier pass him an ice cold Coca Cola be better?

Go fasch, lose cash

Id pay for Luigi to fuck my ass.

Is that the original GTA (fuck I am getting old)

I’m sorry dude, I totally railroaded your thread! 😅

No need to apologize :)

We are all having fun here. You should make it another separate post with more pics and specs. We are a small community and need all the content we can get.

The exhaust also has some attitude

Is that a vespa? I like the wrapping on it

Marketing problem. Call it no maintenance.

Whoa thanks for that nugget of knowledge. Sounds like something I was searching but didn’t run into.

I am using Fossify Calendar and ntodotxt on Android (GrapheneOS), and Gnome Calendar and Sleek on my laptop.

So for context in the discussion: I started with jtx board on mobile and using thunderbird todo. At some point I decided to try out Errands. When i crossed off items in it the item would be marked as done and any repeat settings were cleared. That was a bit annoying, so i decided to search for some apps that will play nice on both laptop and mobile. I then found Super Productivity. On paper i like this one way more and the time tracking is a nice extra. The issue is that either I either use its caldav sync stuff, but then mobile asks for an ssl cert. It does have a sync with file setting, but then for some reason nextcloud write the file as read only on my laptop.

I do want to set myself up with a reverse proxy so that I can tie the server at home with my domain, get an ssl cert and go back to Super Productivity. At this point I am enjoying selfhosting and want to expand my stuff a bit more, so the extra effort will be needed at this point. Keeping things local was more for a test bed before I have to be serious about locking stuff down and what not.

I am running things locally. I cannot get an ssl cert for my local network stuff because i cannot prove i own it to the issuer (i think?). As far as the todo apps, from what I dug up its that caldav does not support recurring stuff on the todo stuff? At least the default nextcloud app does not. You can set a recurring to do with an app that does, but sometimes i would cross it off on mobile and it would no longer show up on my desktop. It seems that they all internally juggle how recurring stuff happens and diffrent clients might trigger another one to see it as done and no need rescheduling.

Other people were talking about it with the dev on github.

Adding to my list to check out :)

ty for the heads up
