Updated my previous sign change, as it felt appropriate. For those who missed the original post, ~~PE~~VAnce, for all those weirdos who never took their 2016 or 2020 signs down, Trump made it easy to update them for 2024.
Get something like this, but look for something that uses a 1/4” hex end for using it with a regular bit driver screwdriver if you don't have a drill that can go slowly in reverse.
You're thinking of Kristi Noem.
They've always been good at shooting themselves in the dick, and this just shows that they are just as cowardly as the "men" they sell masculinity reinforcement devices to. Not every Harley rider is one of those types, but when you only cater to a shrinking, bitter in-group, you eventually stop bringing in people who aren't part of that group.
Killing the Nova right before the import revolution, then crying to Reagan to get their tariff passed, canning Buell, CEO who didn't ride, overpriced and underbuilt bikes, axing affordable modern models that appeal to new riders, failing to follow through with the Livewire, etc...
The only thing they've really done right lately is the Pan-America actually having real ADV touring chops, but it's still too much money. It used to be that if you failed to innovate, you went out of business, but now they are letting themselves be bullied into a corner with no way out. Nevermind the fact that capitulating to the death cult that is the Conservative party just emboldens them to further attack other businesses, and eventually directly attack the groups that they are targeting.
The youngest bike I own is 40 years old (all of my bikes are Honda's) and I've put nearly 30K miles on it in 5 years. The stereotypical Harley rider makes me embarrassed to call myself a rider sometimes.
Think it's easy to disrupt? Asking for a friend, ya'know?
I'm just waiting for better VR support (formerly WMR, now Quest 3), and my system (Thinkpad T15G) is Intel/Nvidia, occasionally with an Nvidia eGPU, and I've heard good support for that just isn't ready yet. Linux would be great if I had a budget to build something entirely optimized for Linux, but right now it's just not right for my system and budget.
I plan on trying it out again soon, but I just don't have time for a new learning curve right now, even if I'm fairly tech savvy.
It was over if the first things I thought, I was just too lazy until today to make a meme out of it, lol
Need to make it easy for the weirdos who never took down their signs...
I think that Vance got chosen because it'd be the fewest letters you'd have to change on your Trump pence 2020 flag
~~PE~~VANCE
The YT algo also drives the content further right. I keep getting recommended Herrera's channel, and if that's the kind of stuff you've got to compete against for views, it's just going to create a runaway phenomenon. If a tech literate, vaguely media literate leftist with a "mechanical porn" fetish can't stop getting recommended Right-wing political gun garbage, then the average viewer doesn't stand a chance...
IIRC, DemoRanch uses (or at least used to) a portion of its income to run his Veterinarian clinic, but that is a few years old and it looks like he stepped back from the business in 2021? I fell off from most of YouTube before the pandemic, so I'm bummed but not surprised that he's a Trump guy.
Fingers crossed I'll have a place to die in glory over soon (offer submitted today)
You also lose the ability to access the TV settings, leaving you stuck on the default settings, which is one of the reasons why most people root their phones.
