When something can rev to a really high RPM, it means that it can move the vehicle at a given speed in a lower gear, which gives the engine more mechanical advantage and thus a stronger pull than if it was in a higher gear. 🤔 #motorcycle

Part of growing up in the modern day is accepting the fact that nobody really cares about what you say or think. 🙃
-
I know that the golden ratio is supposed to be the "perfect" ratio between the width and height of something, but every window I've seen with said ratio looks ugly to me. 🤔
-
I wonder how many people have deeply intimate knowledge on a topic because they've fought a problem all alone for so long, but aren't willing to talk about it because they feel like they won't be taken seriously? 🤔
-
We're being pumped so full of distractions so that we won't have idle minds where thoughts wander, but I'd say most people still have times for their minds to be idle. 😛

You can only be truly free if you buy our Freedom™ products! 🇺🇸
If you can't afford the high purchase and ownership costs, don't worry! We have predatory loans that will keep you giving us your money for the foreseeable future. 🤑
And if that's not enough to convince you, we've worked with all levels of government for several decades to ensure that you don't realistically have a choice. 🙃
But don't worry, we've shoved our corporate propaganda into all forms of media and advertising so you won't even question it! 👍

Is there anything more relaxing than being away from people, their gazes, and their noise?
-
It isn't a real #motorcycle ride until your helmet, visor, and/or bike ends up covered in bug splats. :P
-
Do animals have thoughts? 🤔
I'm not talking about inner monologue, I'm talking about thoughts like when humans operate on autopilot.

Apparently my CBR650R makes both more torque and more horsepower than the CB750 of old. :3c
It also makes slightly more horsepower than the new CB750 Hornet twin, but less torque.

Someone should write a #Fediverse server implementation in a hardware description language like #Verilog or #VHDL. #Fedi #FPGA

WSDOT: Felt cute, might close the 520 bridge. #Seattle

At the point in my #motorcycle riding where new skills and techniques are coming out of nowhere in response to situational need while I'm out riding. 🤪

Power outages here happen far more frequently than they should for a city in a developed country. :/ #Seattle

I still like the idea of using a VT plugged into my desktop as a daily driver. Shame there aren't any curses-based browsers that work with modern websites. :( #Linux

I wonder how many people remember that parchment was made from animal skin.
-
Anxiety over something completely outside of your control is a waste of energy. :/
-
It's kind of wild that the TI graphing calculators were the first exposure to the 8-bit computer-style of BASIC and so on for so many people, including me. :3
-
If I could only have one #motorcycle, it would be one with a displacement of less than 700cc. :3
-
The idea of a Grom is appealing, but my past experience with a Honda ADV150 showed me the limitations of such small bikes on public roads.
-
Once you start going bigger, you just expend more energy just lugging that lump of a motor. Sure, more power means that it probably won't be sluggish when accelerating, but the heavier bike is more work moving it side to side.

The 648cc inline-four in my CBR650R is my favorite #motorcycle engine so far. :3c

Most riders: "I need to mount my phone to my handlebars!"
Me: Phone stored in luggage, standalone GPS on handlebars. :3
