I'm ambivalent about gold cards but it's nice they're doing cosmetics for the cards that go in every deck. I would love to get a 2 star professor in a future pack too!

I had saved up 360 but I only pulled x10 so far. If I don't have to chase after a new meta I think I might save for next set

Ooo that's a big one! I recently got my first god pack

Overall quite nice but nothing I'm currently playing with

Daeji Gukbab(돼지국밥)! You get it all over Korea but it's especially famous in Busan where I live. It's pork bone broth with meat served with a few toppings and a bowl of rice on the side. I always order the one with meat, intestines, and blood sausage. It's very rich and savory and comforting. It's also very cheap and often open 24hrs

I'm guessing this is going to be an unpopular take here. Earlier this year I got a Xiaomi and have had a great experience.

I was getting frustrated with my s10's battery life. I've replaced phone batteries before but always end up cracking the glass shortly after. So this time I spent around 300 usd on a Redmi note 13 pro. It seemed like a hassle to flash but I was able to get rid of all the bloatware via adb. The benchmarks are comparable to the S10 and with my settings the battery easily lasts 2 days (unless I play games). It also has a flat screen and a 3.5mm jack. No Bixby button.

I don't know the security implications of buying a Chinese phone but I have solved all my complaints about my previous Samsung phones by switching.

Good to hear it's worked out for you:) this is basically what I landed on after weighing all the comments. If I notice something that makes me think the frame is going to fall apart under me I'll replace it lol but I'm not really in a place to drop a lot of money on a bike now.

Anyway I'm glad I asked because I learned a lot from this thread alone

The brand is called tragen and the drivetrain is all sunrun. After some googling it seems like a knockoff of a brand called sun race.

I'm just commuting through the city mostly. I figured a mountain bike would be most beginner friendly and good for going over curbs and speed bumps and the like

This is really helpful! Thanks! From what you and everyone has said I think I'll skip the gearing for now. If it breaks or something it'll be a fun project to replace them later. So will big tires change the turning radius? I have 27.5 now. I'm interested in trying 29s but I do sometimes have to avoid cars and pedestrians as I don't have many bike lanes lol

I started thinking about it because I thought going to 1x would be simpler for me. I was leaving the front chainring on the highest gear for a long time before I ever heard about cross chaining. Once I was looking at options I was thinking it might be worth getting a full set of nicer parts since I'm commuting every day but I wasn't sure what the benefit would be. Reading comments now makes it seem like it's not going to change much for me as everything I have still works fine. Maybe I'll see if I can just change the chainring

 

Hi, I hope this is the right place to ask. I decided to start commuting by bike as it's only about 15 minutes each way. So I got my first bike and learned how to ride. It's a cheap Chinese MTB from my country's version of amazon. This was a few months ago now. Since then I've been riding almost everyday and taking longer trips along the river trail near my home.

So I'm thinking about getting a lower end Shimano groupset. But I'm wondering what I'll get out of upgrading. Will there be a noticeable difference in performance? Smoother shifting? More speed in top gear?

Thanks for any insight you can share :) any essential gear recommendations would be great too!
