  • I’m an avid motorcycle rider. I have 5 bikes in my garage. Guess what? All of them have stock pipes except for one, which I bought with the aftermarket pipe already on it lol. I like the sound of my motorcycles exhausts, their already louder than cars from the factory. A lot of people don’t realize all these incredibly loud blast pipes so only that- noise no performance. I have a 21 v7 that I gutted the cats out of for performance, but left the stock baffles on it and it hardly made a noise difference yet I got a noticable gain. Had I bought straight pipes it would be no quicker. And before somebody says loud pipes save lives LOL NO they don’t. Cars won’t hear you till you pass them. Most people hearing ur exhaust are sitting in their house while u drive by. The exhaust points out behind your bike, so no the car in front of you isn’t going to see you because you straight piped ur harley



  • Took me a long time but I settled on Xbox one controllers. I use rechargable batteries but can run the AAs if u want. AA batteries have longer shelf life if u let the controller sit long periods vs rechargeables always seem to discharge. Support in just about every game. Can be had reasonable price on sale now and then and lots of parts available for them. Id never buy a controller with a non replaceable battery!





  • I built my SO gaming rig for about 550 bucks. 5600x ryzen and rx580. Idk if it’s “more powerful” than a console or not but it plays games fine. Yes I know the 580 is dated and only pci3.0 vs board supporting 4.0, but she didn’t have money to spend. I have a 6600xt I got used for a hair over 200 when GPU prices were nuts and it plays all I ask it to at 1080p. You CERTAINLY don’t need to shell out 500 on a GPU that’s ridiculous. I will never understand the dick waving in the PC community about needing the best greatest top of the line and latest hardware to be able to game, when u can spend half the money to get 85% of the performance or something. I am confident for the cost of a PS5 u can rival PS5 performance in a PC build, and even if it’s not “better” the difference in cost of games is enough that a couple game purchases puts you into another class of GPU anyways!
