Yes I'm familiar with the armor ratings. I guess that impact vs abrasion makes sense, though I think I'd have to see a piece in person to really get it.
>I really wouldn't be willing to go 75mph (120km/hr) on a Ninja 250... not out of fear, just comfort with the vibey engine
>so if you want to ride at 75mph, you'll be at maybe 10k rpm. For a bike that redlines at 12k, that's a pretty big ask.
That makes sense to me, if it's not in the cards for the bike I end up getting I still have my car.
>it took me a month before I was even willing to ride at 60km/hr. And much longer before I would go at 100km/hr on the freeway
Yeah I'm just thinking of places I have go to, usually I have to take the interstate, my state's got a weird layout. The interstate is essentially the "comfortable with riding" goal but it'll take some time for me to work up the nerve.

Thanks for all your help, and thanks to all the other anons who answered my questions. Now I gotta get to sleep, I have work in the morning.

If (miraculously) you can persuade the representatives (and they won't fucking care because they aren't appointed by a democratic procedure) the EU will just draft another chat control proposition later on because this one got "voted incorrectly". Btw i'm not advocating against arrassing with calls and mails the eu representatives, these drones should at least getting annoyed if they want to pass unpopular legislations anyways, i'm just pointing out at the sorry state of things here.

Learn steganography and pgp encryption, share keys with your close friends (directly, no middle-man shit), and use them for your sensitive data. Start using Tox for your chat groups. Things are going to get bleak.

It's almost like there's an infiltration of unstable b-cluster histrionic and easily blackmailable (by glowies) individuals there to subvert and take control of community driven projects. On the meantime it's almost like there a forced injection of third-world subhumans specifically from a slave mentality caste system in big tech corporate projects... But enough of wearing this tinfoil hat.
