Google Can Now Make You a Suspect In A Crime You Didn’t Commit
dumb question amnesty requested: what if you keep location services turned off, cellular data off, wifi assist off, and are not logged in to any google-related accounts? does that keep you out of these edragnets?

what do we mostly use gifs for? the fact that Futureman is a soft g guy just confirms it's a troll job, all the way.- The Surly Mountain Biking Thread
yeah, that's kinda the point. I did two other lines from the top in preride mode: Jaws and Sweet Skull, marked black diamond and blue, respectively. after seeing those, Flow Track would be a 'green'; and it was for most of it's length. I could just relax and hammer it, floating the table tops and small gappers. then it crossed a jeep road. iirc, this was the first ttf after that. maybe the second. after the crash, I walked back uphill. at about the base of the launch ramp, off to the side in the shade, was a little laminated paper sign that had some down arrows and 'caution' on it, stapled to a stick and spun around backward so that if you even saw it, you couldn't read it. a big rocky death gap was the last thing I expected to find. if I hadn't hit the brakes, I'm pretty sure I had enough speed to clear it, assuming I could avoid a mid-air freak-out. and I'm older than your mom.- Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do

camped at RPR, this weekend. hadn't been in a while. they got a bunch of big Enduro stuff out there now. what wasn't changed is getting lost and turned around a bunch of times. anyway, there's a new jump on the flow track that has some serious consequences. first guy cleared it. second guy cased the fuckout of it, bending his big ring so bad we just broke it off with some pliers to make the bike rideable. but before we could work on that, he had to unpack a 1/2" of his face from between the lense and the frame of his glasses from bouncing high side into the landing zone. pic below was after he'd been working on it a while. this is how I ended up. I was a little ways behind Two, trying to get enough speed to hit it proper, judging only by the size of the ramp, not having seen it before, but figuring it to be reasonably safe, regardless. I was about two bike lengths from the lip when I saw Two laid out in the LZ, slammed on the brakes, and endoed hard into the boulders in the gap. somehow, all I did was jam my thumb, probably at about the same spot Two hit on the lip of the landing ramp. only time in my life I wished I had gripshift. below is what you're supposed to do. stills from a phone video of One going back up and hitting it again while Two worked on his bike (he also flatted in the crash). then we went back up to the top, puttered around taking in the view from Decision Point, then hit Super D and got lost a few times trying to ride as much single-track as possible back towards camp. good times.- Hey Steel Shank!

welp, no whites at Tejas, yet. got a small largemouth bass on my first cast of the day with a clouser, and that was it. needs way more flow, imo.- 2020 Fishing: Get out there and wet some hooks

yup. besides losing knobs, they were famous for the "Nevagoiter", like you got there on your Maxxis. although, I think the consensus was it was a combination of Stans (which voided the warranty, iirc) and leaving your bike in the sun for too long (like leaving it on a hitch rack all day before an afterwork ride). but they sure do hook up, around here. I switched to Minions on my squishy, a few years ago. if I'm gonna take a trip to AF or Bentonville, I'll get the DoubleDown version. once you get used to the weight, they're nice to have around here, for all the sidewall cut risk we enjoy. I run Igintors on my hardtail. still love them as an XC tire, and it annoys me that they seem to have quit making it for 29ers. can still find them on Amazon.- Lady reclines seat on plane, guy behind her goes apeshit

my bad for assuming you were thinking of a scenario that's actually relevant, today. either way, you still had choices, back then. Thank you for volunteering not to recline! where are they gonna put the statue?- Lady reclines seat on plane, guy behind her goes apeshit
no, it's an absolutely shitty analogy. so you choose to go to that extremely rare restaurant that still permits smoking. then you demand that the house rules suddenly change, just for you. then you call the smokers selfish for balking? I don't smoke, and don't like being around it. but if I make a choice to go where smokers are granted an exception to do their thing, I accept the circumstances or go somewhere else. for the record, I don't recline much or often. but I do have recurring shoulder pain, so if a particular airplane's seat is pushing my head too far forward and firing it up, you're goddamn right I'm going to recline. I'm not short, and I have a bad knee. so what I do is book a seat with extra leg room where I can put my bad leg in the aisle when I need to. it's not hard. you'd rather be a victim and leave it up to a bunch strangers to service your special needs. hell. I'll always give you the first exit row. you get your special space and neither you nor the person in front of you can recline. should be heaven, right?- Hey Steel Shank!
I'd put that in my pie hole and gouge on it. FRRT-FRRT those fritos are legit. excellent application.- Lady reclines seat on plane, guy behind her goes apeshit

lol at all these dipshits in coach expecting to be comfortable. at all. I bet they never fart, never cut in line, never leave little bags of dogshit on the trail. never do anything with only their own interests in mind. as to this douche, he's got his little movie. he chooses to ruin it for himself. he could probably lean his head against the seat and be more comfortable than sitting straight up with his head hanging down. for me, I sleep better with my head in my arms on the tray table. and fuck her, too. air travel is about the destination, not the journey. - Austin Homeless Free for All Ordinance
