Not from Oregon or any cold place, wondering why one would not feel bad for those fined for studded tires

Studded tires do not work significantly better than studless winter or all-season tires, but they greatly increase wear and tear on roads and bridges. They also lose effectiveness when they are driven on roads that aren't covered in snow or ice. In metropolitan oregon, it generally only snows for about a week total each year. But if you live in the Cascades it can snow a lot more.

Temptation Towards Apoptosis - Track 10

L4mps 1st Feature Event

This chapter was translated by Aca!

Location: Toi’s inner world

Toi: A-chama…

Astaroth: What’s wrong? Why do you persist so?

Astaroth: Did you not want to put an end to this? Were you not the one who wished to end your hideous transformation with your very own hands?

Toi: Mhm… I thought about it.

~~~(flashback)

Yodaka: Toi, have you given thought to what you might do after you’ve changed?

Toi: After I’ve… changed?

Yodaka: If changing is not something you can avoid, then perhaps it would help if you thought of what lies beyond that change.

Yodaka: More often than not, I’ve recently come to think that perhaps… Time moving forward is actually a good thing.

Location: Toi’s inner world

Toi: I’ve always been terrified of changing, because I don’t know what lies ahead of that change.

Toi: But, I still want to stay by his side.

Toi: I know now that it’s okay for me to want that. He made me realize that.

Toi: So, A-chama. Stop our assimilation, please.

Astaroth: Kukuku…. HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Toi: …… 

Astaroth: And after you cease the transformation, what then? It is only a matter of time before you and your precious brother freeze to death here!

Toi: That’s fine. Ani-sama will somehow pull through.

Asaroth: That’s–

Toi: I know. After all, we’re twins who are two halves of a whole.

Location: Hotel - Room

Nagi: Heeeey, Netaro, wake up. Daniel: Thanks to those crazy ass trackers you put on the twins, we can see where they are.

Netaro: Googa~ Snork, snork, snork mimimimimi.

Yodaka: Quite a picturesque way of sleeping. Did anyone manage to get through to them?

Chief: No. I’ve been trying to get a hold of them for a while now…!

Nagi: Seems like I can’t reach them either.

Daniel: Well, maybe they’ll come back soon, y’know.

Chief: But, the weather has become extremely harsh, we would’ve probably heard from them by now.

Yodaka: That’s true… we should probably try contacting Morozumi-san—

Chief: ! It’s Ryui…! Hello?

Ryui: “… H… pl…”

Nagi: The signal…

Ryui: “Toi’s… a… th…”

Chief: Sorry Ryui-kun, but I can’t hear you…!

Daniel: Are they deep in the mountains right now…?

Netaro: Tuah! I sense something exciting happening!

Yodaka: Are you awake now, Netaro?

Netaro: Thaaat said, I have made a “Signal Beep Beep Enhancement Antenna” within the 18 seconds after waking up and attached it to Doudou’s phone.

Ryui: “Shit… Hey, Chief. Can you hear me?”

Chief: Ryui-kun! I can hear you just fine now!

Daniel: Woah, sounds pretty bad over there. Where are you guys now—

Ryui: “We’re near Oirase Gorge. But there’s a heavy blizzard…”

Yodaka: Are the two of you alright?

Ryui: ”We’re fine. I don’t have time to explain but can you come over now…!”

Chief: Got it! We’ll come as quickly as possible, so send us your location!

Nagi: This would be a good time to use the studless snow tires the other customers from the Kamakura bar recommended us.

Location: Aomori -  Oirase Gorge

Ryui: *panting*

Ryui: Toi, just wait a little longer. We’re going back home soon.

Ryui: Fuck, I can’t see shit…!

Ryui: (I’ve got a bad footing here. We’ll both fall if I’m careless, but if I don’t hurry…!)

Spirit A: iIiiiiIi SmmEEllllLL SouUummEeThinngg.

Ryui: Fucking hell…!

Spirit B: SomMmmeThinnGn SmeElllAlelL sNiiccceEE.

Spirit C: WhEiiirreeEEee iSZzz It? WheeeRreee wHeReeeeE.

Ryui: (There’s too many of them…!)

Ryui: …? What was that…

Ryui: …!

Ryui: (What, the…! These white threads around Toi… a cocoon?!)

Ryui: Toi, Toi!

Ryui: …

Ryui: Tch! Is this that shitty demon’s doing?!

Ryui: (I’m not strong enough to do this alone. I’ll have to seek Morozumi-san for help, but in order to do that–)

Spirits: IIiiIIII SeeeEeeEE YouuuUUuuu!

Ryui: Hah… try me if you dare.

Ryui: I have to go back with Toi. Even if it kills me. 

Location: Toi’s inner world

Astaroth: Is that fine to you? Without my powers, you wouldn’t be able to see the future.

Astaroth: The Shiramitsu Family will fall to ruin, and you will be cast aside.

Toi: That’s not it. I’m not trying to get rid of you.

Astaroth: What…?

Toi: I’m going to keep A-chama residing in me. However, I’m done being afraid of you taking over and transforming my body. 

Toi: (Now that I think about it, I’m always letting others decide and do things for me)

Toi: (But it’ll be different from now on.)

Toi: I want to be equals with A-chama…!

Astaroth: You think yourself capable?

Toi: Mhm.

Astaroth: Oh? And, pray tell, how do you plan to accomplish that? 

Toi: …

Astaroth: Mankind oh so favors stealing from trampling down on, and subordinating others. 

Astaroth: Or perhaps you, in your spineless cowardice, believe that you can solve this with a conversation— 

Toi: I know. Let’s do a trial of strength.

Toi: If this trial is something I must do to stay by Ani-sama’s side, then I’m willing to do anything!!

Astaroth: Hahaha…! Very well, let me witness your pitiful struggle! 

Location: Aomori - Snowy path

Ryui:  Good, I see the road…! Where are those spirits at…?!

???: Crunch… Crunch… Chomp… Chomp…

Ryui: (That huge ass spirit… just ate the rest of them…!)

Spirit: …Ke…Ke.

Ryui: (For fucks sake… please don’t notice us.)

Strong Spirit: …Ke… YoooouUUuuouOOuuu.

Ryui: …! Shit…!

Strong Spirit: GrAhHHHH!!

Ryui: H-Huh…?

???: …

Ryui: (That shining… animal…? Did it fend off that spirit..?)

Ryui: Uwah?!

Ryui: (It disappeared…? I thought it was coming towards me… Wait, more importantly…!) Strong Spirit: ooOooooOooooo…me…

Ryui: How persistent…!

Strong Spirit: ggGGiiIVeeEEE mmMEEee itTTttT!!!

Ryui: (This is it, but as long as Toi’s safe—)

20240406: the History of LEGO Castle day 097. 6047 / 6099 Traitor Transport / Traitor Transport with Cave (1997, 145 / 146 pieces, 93 / 94 different parts) DRAGONS!!!! The Traitor Transport and the Traitor Transport with cave is mostly a light gray wagon cage with a decorative red roof and yellow and black highlights built on a black base with brown 33mm wagon wheels pulled by a black dragon with trans neon orange wings. This set comes with three minifigures. -The Bat Lord has a black helmet with bat wings on either side, a yellow minifigure head with an inverted "V" hairline, pointed eyebrows and mustache, a light gray cloth cape with bottom fringes and a black bat with red accents, black arms with a printed red torso with a yellow and black collar, five vertical black lines with rows of yellow dots, a silver belt, dark gray legs with a black belt, a chrome silver sword, and a trans red 4L antenna pole with a black bat on top. -The next minifigure for this set has a red torso with silver scale mail print and black arms, plain blue legs, a yellow minifigure head with brown bangs, mustache, and beard, a black knight helmet with front grill, and a medium white feather plume. -The last minifigure has a black axe wielder helmet, yellow minifigure face with black bangs, mustache, and forehead tuft, a printed light gray torso with red Fleur de Lis pattern, dark gray legs with a black belt, a black whip, and a triangular Fright Knights shield. The black dragon, which is built from a body, two arms, a tail, a top head, two trans neon orange wings, and a trans neon orange flame and the body appears in three other sets, 4818 Dragon Rider, 6007 Bat Lord, and 6097 Night Lord's Castle. There's not too much in the way of rare or unique parts in this set but the light gray horse barding with ruffles and printed red design with black harness lines was only found in this set and 6097 Night Lord's Castle and this is the first appearance of the light gray triangular Fright Knights shield with a black bat and red highlights on a silver background with a red border (which appears in five other sets, 5383 Castle Accessories, 6031 Fright Force, 6087 Witch's Magic Manor, 6097 Night Lord's Castle, and 9376 Castle Set from Education and Dacta). The brick built attachment for the dragon to the wagon is the most articulate wagon harness we've seen yet, allowing for the most versatile movement yet. The dragon can even be next to the wagon, facing the opposite direction! Also, this is probably the easiest to use cage or dungeon from the castle subthemes yet :) The only difference between 6047 and 6099 is the large studless dark gray dragon cave that came with 6099 (not pictured here). Parts inventory for this set can be found at BrickLink or Rebrickable and a free download of the instructions is available on ToysPeriod.

1月の帰省 / January Homecoming

ひと月前に義姉が亡くなりました。つまり、兄は何十年も連れ添った妻を失ない、間違いなく心に大きな穴が開いている様子が心配で、先日、帰省をしてきました。 My sister-in-law passed away a month ago. In other words, my brother has not lost his wife of decades, and I am worried that he will definitely have a big hole in his heart, so I went home the other day.                                   ＊   ＊   ＊   ＊   ＊ 天気予報を連日の様に確認して、雨や雪が降らず、標高の高い峠道が凍結しない可能性の高い日程を選びました。お蔭で、峠への登り坂は前夜の雨に濡れている程度で、路面に撒かれた凍結防止剤を踏み散らしながら順調に登り切りまたし。そして、県境の自動車専用道路のトンネルの歩道を走り抜けて、さあ、いよいよ気持ちの良い下り坂だ！と思った瞬間、路面には雪が。タイヤはほぼ��リック。急にスタッドレスタイヤが欲しくなった瞬間です。 I checked the weather forecast every day and chose a date where there was a high possibility that it would not rain or snow, and that the high-altitude mountain pass would not freeze. Thanks to this, the climb to the pass was only wet from the rain of the night before, and we managed to climb smoothly while trampling on the anti-icing agent sprinkled on the road surface. Then, after running through the sidewalk of the tunnel of the prefectural border, it was finally time for a pleasant downhill! Just when I thought about it, there was snow on the road. The tires are almost slick. This is the moment when you suddenly want studless tires.

この時期、気を付けるべき場所は日陰になり易い路面や橋の上。一見、濡れているだけの路面に見えても、実際には凍結している事も珍しくありません。無事に峠道を下り切り、自転車を走らせ続け、一か月振りに会った兄は、電話した時に較べて回復している様にも見えましたが、この時期の路面と同じで安心できません。「大丈夫さ！ 生きているから」と言ってきたので、「違うよ、生きているから心配なんだ。そうじゃあなかったら心配しないからね」と言い返しました。人の心は簡単には回復しないもの。2月も帰省する予定です。  At this time of year, you should be careful on roads and bridges that are easily shaded. At first glance, it is not uncommon for the road surface to look only wet, but in fact it is frozen. I made it down the mountain pass safely, continued to ride my bicycle, and saw my brother for the first time in a month, and although he seemed to be recovering compared to when I called, I was not relieved because the road surface was the same as at this time of year. He said, "It's okay, I'm alive," and I said, "No, I'm worried because I'm alive. If not, I wouldn't be worried." The human mind does not recover easily. I plan to return to my hometown in February.

画像は、生家の裏手にあって、僕の遊び場所の一つだった思い出の墓地です。ただ、墓の多くが墓終い（はかじまい）されていて、以前よりも立派になった大樹と合わせて、60年以上の時の流れが刻まれていました。 This image is a cemetery of memories that was one of my playgrounds behind my birthplace. However, many of the graves were closed, and together with the large trees that have become more magnificent than before, the passage of time of more than 60 years was engraved.

Best Type of Winter Tires

Winter is a season that presents unique challenges for drivers, especially when it comes to maintaining traction and safety on icy and snowy roads. One of the most effective ways to ensure your vehicle performs optimally in these conditions is by equipping it with the right set of winter tires.

This article will guide you through the best types of winter tires available, helping you make an informed decision for your vehicle.

Why Winter Tires Matter

Winter tires are specifically designed to perform better in cold weather, snow, and icy conditions compared to all-season or summer tires. They feature unique tread patterns, softer rubber compounds, and various technologies that enhance traction, handling, and braking performance.

Using winter tires can significantly reduce your risk of accidents during the harsh winter months.

Key Features of Winter Tires

Tread Design: Winter tires have deeper treads with more aggressive patterns that help improve grip on snow and ice. They often include features like sipes—small grooves that provide additional biting edges for traction.

Rubber Composition: The rubber in winter tires remains pliable at lower temperatures, ensuring better contact with the road surface. This flexibility is crucial for maintaining grip when the temperature drops.

Studdable Options: Some winter tires come with the option for metal studs, which can further enhance traction on icy surfaces. However, the legality of studded tires varies by region, so check local regulations before considering them.

Types of Winter Tires

1. Studdable Winter Tires

Studdable winter tires are equipped with small metal studs that can be inserted into pre-drilled holes in the tire tread. These studs dig into the ice, providing exceptional grip in extreme conditions. They are ideal for areas with frequent ice storms or extremely cold temperatures.

Pros:

Superior traction on ice.

Enhanced stability and control.

Cons:

Increased road noise.

Potential damage to road surfaces.

2. Studless Winter Tires

Studless winter tires, also known as friction tires, utilize advanced rubber compounds and unique tread designs to provide traction on snow and ice without studs. These tires are designed for optimal performance in a variety of winter conditions.

Pros:

Quieter operation than studded tires.

Better performance on dry and wet roads.

Less impact on road surfaces.

Cons:

Slightly reduced grip on hard-packed ice compared to studded options.

3. All-Winter Tires

All-winter tires are a versatile option that can handle various winter conditions. They combine features of both studded and studless tires, providing adequate traction on snow, ice, and slush.

Pros:

Good performance across multiple winter conditions.

Increased tread life compared to specialized winter tires.

Cons:

May not perform as well in extreme winter conditions compared to dedicated studded or studless tires.

4. Performance Winter Tires

Performance winter tires are designed for drivers who prioritize handling and responsiveness while still needing winter capabilities. These tires are ideal for sports cars and performance vehicles that encounter winter weather.

Pros:

Enhanced handling and steering response.

Better dry and wet traction compared to standard winter tires.

Cons:

Typically have a shorter lifespan.

Not as effective in extreme snow and ice conditions.

Choosing the Right Winter Tires

When selecting the best winter tires for your vehicle, consider the following factors:

Driving Conditions: Assess the typical winter weather in your area. If you frequently encounter icy roads, studded tires may be a better option. If you mainly drive on snow, studless tires might suffice.

Vehicle Type: Consider your vehicle's make and model. Larger vehicles may require more robust tires, while smaller cars can often utilize lighter options.

Treadwear Warranty: Look for tires with a good treadwear warranty to ensure longevity and performance throughout the winter season.

Tire Size: Ensure that the winter tires you select are the appropriate size for your vehicle. Consult your owner’s manual or the tire placard for specifications.

Budget: Winter tires can range significantly in price. While it’s essential to stay within budget, prioritize quality and performance over the lowest price.

Top Recommendations for Winter Tires

Here are some of the best winter tires available in 2024:

Bridgestone Blizzak WS90: Known for its excellent traction on ice and snow, the Blizzak WS90 features a flexible tread compound that maintains grip in freezing temperatures.

Michelin X-Ice Xi3: This studless tire offers outstanding winter performance, with a tread design that enhances braking and handling on both snow and ice.

Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice WRT: Designed for severe winter conditions, this tire provides excellent traction and stability, even on icy roads.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3: A favorite among winter driving enthusiasts, this studless tire excels in snow and ice while maintaining comfort and low road noise.

Pirelli Ice Zero FR: This tire features a unique tread design for enhanced grip and is known for its stability and handling in various winter conditions.

Conclusion

Choosing the right winter tires is crucial for ensuring safety and performance during the winter months. By understanding the different types of winter tires available and considering your specific driving conditions, you can make an informed decision that enhances your vehicle's winter performance. Remember, investing in quality winter tires not only improves your driving experience but also helps ensure the safety of you and your passengers on the road.

Be prepared for winter driving challenges—equip your vehicle with the best winter tires suited for your needs!
