Random Rants

@Mizmazzle well shucks I’m flattered! I’ll try and keep the pics flowing and keep up!

random rant and random question.

only realised today that a tee shirt I gotten from IH Nagoya back in April is long and not short sleeved. ‍️ fucking idiot, that is me, didn't bother to check when I got it.
it may seem like I simple process as the sleeves might be shaped differently but wondering if it'll look normal if I have the sleeves shortened?

[Walery Smirnoff]

@louisbosco Dude, leave the shirt as is.

[louisbosco]

@Walery-Smirnoff I don't wear long sleeve tees. and the weather where I live doesn't allow for it either..

[Jett129]

@louisbosco Would you wear it as a base layer when riding?

[AdamJ]

@louisbosco one way to find out mate

[louisbosco]

@Jett129 nah. in a tropical climate of 27-36C with high humidity, its tee shirts with some sort of overshirt/ riding jacket. I suppose a long sleeve tee without a jacket would do but I much prefer the IH heavy weight stripe ones to the 7.5 tee shirt fabric..

@AdamJ will probably get my tailor at work to see if she can sort it out once shes back from holiday.

My lefty OD it’s on the way from Cologne. Allegedly. For the third time. @tody did you get one?

[tody]

@Tago-Mago yep. second hand from @FlavourFade , so the OG OD.

[Tago Mago]

Update: apparently it’s still in Cologne, but at least released by customs…

[CosmoSix5]

I wonder if bills ever experience mechanical failures or just stuff we want? Third times the charm?

[ZackB]

@CosmoSix5 you beat me, my package only has 2 mechanical failures……..so far.

[Danimal506]

@ZackB @CosmoSix5 Im right there with you guys. Finally arriving today.

[ZackB]

Just to keep the continuity going

[Danimal506]

I hate to say it, but my package arrived safely this afternoon

[ZackB]

@Danimal506 I think mine will be here today

[CosmoSix5]

I'm officially delayed until tomorrow. Glad it's for fall/winter lol. Still my OCD is kicking in. IHUK should at least get their shipping fee returned.

@CosmoSix5 Hi! Can I ask you a question? I saw a VPN sign on your screen. I wonder why they use VPN in America? I watch YouTube and foreign news through VPN. That's how it is in Russia now.

[Alex]

@Walery-Smirnoff some people think that the government is watching them in the USA and elsewhere in the world, clearly said to a Russian, this probably sounds fanciful compared to your reality..
Also, some people use VPNs to circumvent protections on some websites, for example if I want to watch a football match when I am staying in the USA, on a service I pay for in the UK, the game is blocked, so I can use a VPN to enable me to still access the service I pay for.
Further to both of the above examples, a VPN can prevent you from certain types of hacking on public WiFi networks

[Walery Smirnoff]

@Alex Alex, thanks for the answer. It turns out that VPN can be used for peaceful purposes)))
