It's a play on an old saying "do bears shit in the woods?".
At one time, humor was used a lot more in ads.
Lol, right, right.
Tell me again how to live my life?
I like being able to grab something from inventory rather than having to buy it again because I didn't save it last time (for example, electronics components sometimes cost as much for one as it does to buy 10, or household hardware that only comes in multiples but I only need one for now).
Or the different tools for different seasons, like my gardening stuff that gets put away for winter - but before spring I need certain seeds and sprouting kits, but not everything. Being able to grab just the container of specific seeds, and just the container of one sprouting kit from storage is lots easier than grabbing a 50lb container with everything in it.
Or computer/electronics hardware. I have specific, inventoried containers for cables, adapters, components, etc, so if I need something I can check my inventory on my phone rather than "just order it from Amazon", wasting money and resources.
Then there's books, rather than keep them all on a bookshelf, they're containerized (moisture-proof) and inventoried, when I want a specific one, I know exactly which container to get it from. And yes, there are certain books I find worth keeping around to re-read or when I'm looking for a specific bit of info.
Blankets, camping gear, household hardware (sockets, latches, door knobs, light bulbs, timers, extension cords, etc), exercise gear, seasonal clothes, 1all properly stowed and mostly inventoried.
Other seasonal stuff - cookware that's used occasionally (crock pot, pressure cooker, roasting pan) are stowed and inventoried so I know exactly where they are, and I could even tell anyone exactly where to find them.
You may not see a value in this, but I'm not throwing away stuff that I know I'll use occasionally. I'd rather have it stowed so my living space isn't cluttered but it's still reasonably accessible.
Plus the inventory is useful for insurance purposes - I don't worry about being able to file insurance claims, as I have both a "written" inventory and pictures of everything (all properly stored and backed up).
Meh, spreadsheets are for whatever you use them for. I use them for a lighter version of project management, where I don't need all the rules of a project management app because they get in the way.
If you have a deep pantry, inventory is necessary
I successfully returned home with a 1kg bag of discounted coffee beans
Lol, love it. Great reason for a day long ride!
Isn't it considered the first "Mockmentary"?
I just acquired a copy last week!
I converted all my DVD's so I can watch them more easily.
VPS with a tunnel between it and home services (Wireguard/Tailscale, etc)in my opinion is Best Way as it isolates your home gateway (no open ports, because you make outbound connections to your VPS), and let VPS handle Identity and Access Management
(Or an equivalent isolating architecture).
Alternatively, Tailscale has a Funnel feature which can route public traffic into your Tailscale network. Though I don't love this approach, it does work for low-volume connections.
Funny, I said the same thing elsewhere in fewer words and boy did it piss people off! Lol
I've been around long enough to have seen the bullshit of the Olympics many times. It's a money grab at this point, and has been my entire life. The athletes are amazing, it's the rest that's crap.
This has been true for probably most of the 20th century.
It pretty well exemplifies how the world runs - power brokers at every level "suffer for their own ambition", which effectively equates to us plebes being used by them, while being told not to believe our own eyes.
You're used to the torque of a V-twin 750. A 300 will feel quite lumbering comparitively.
Also, having a passenger on that 300 isn't the most fun, your Harley would handle a pillion better (though not much better in stock form), since the seating position isn't so high. Neither bike in stock form is really meant for a passenger, but the combination of far less low rpm torque, the high center of mass from the seating position, and the higher rake angle of the Yamaha will make controlling it a lot harder (I know, I've had both types of bikes, my sport-tour has more power and a lower center of mass than this Yamaha, and the rake angle alone makes having a passenger challenging, this with 40 years of riding behind me).
But, the Harley would be more comfortable for a passenger with little more than a new saddle (a more pronounced king/queen) and a small back brace - Harley even sells one, about 8" tall (so kind of unobtrusive).
The back brace will give a pillion a bit of security, an improved saddle will make it less cramped by lifting them away from the foot pegs.
(I'm not even a Harley rider, never owned one, don't like them, but I've ridden them and understand why new riders and people who ride two-up go for them, the torque and low center of mass are ideal for both groups).
