    If you're looking for a new budget portable projector in 2021 I think this BenQ GS50 is the best bang for your buck. It's great for camping, gaming, watching movies and TV at home. You can also use it for fake windows and room ambience.

    Before the Big fire hit us on the 'hill' (Santa Cruz mountains) - for 3 years we had a large screen outside, and projector, and invited over friends and neighbors for movie night on Fridays (mainly, but sometimes Saturday) - and it was absolutely awesome. I bought the projectors from a 'trade in' type of shop, and both were good - anyway, what fun! We had a camp fire outside as well, and wine of course... and other stuff... but it was so much fun. Then the fire came, and took it all away. It was beautiful while it lasted.

    @2:39 - Most motorcyclists aren't revving their engines to prove anything. It's an action to promote "visibility". Most car drivers are not trained to be aware of motorcycles (or bicyclists, for that matter). Revving an engine makes car drivers around you aware there's a motorcycle present. I bought a new motorcycle a few years ago with a muffler that made the motorcycle virtually silent. I almost got hit four times within the first month of owning it. I then replaced the muffler with one that made my motorcycle audible enough to hear in cars with windows up and music blasting. Never had trouble with other motorists seeing me since.

    • @dant.6364
      @dant.6364 2 года назад

      Oh come on. Most motorcyclists have loud pipes just to be dicks (especially boomers on Harleys trying to impress women who are decades younger). For car drivers in the opposite lane to hear you at any distance, you would have to aim the pipes forward. I've owned bikes for 40 years and the way you avoid accidents is to assume that every driver at every intersection is going to pull out in front of you, Another tip is that you feel that you always feel that you made eye contact with the opposing driver. If you don't feel you made eye contact, slow down or even stop until they make a turn. The main downside to driving like this is that you pretty much have to drive the speed limit when in town. But hey.
