- First time trying out the garden tractor and if I'm being honest... It doesn't feel like it's faster, but I'm definitely not as sore as doing it by hand. Ultimately I ended up doing four driveways as my charitable event for the month and that consumed about 5 hours of my day.
- It might be time to retire this battery. I only had it on a trickle charger and I took it off a couple hours ago.
- The difference cellular shades can make.
- The Vehicross group on FB likes to banter about mounting a spare tire on the rear hatch and whether it can handle the weight... I decided on a practical demonstration.
- That would explain why the rear kept breaking loose on left corners.

- One downside to big bore bikes is you pretty well have to tear them down to get the carburetor out. Been a productive day, though: - new tires - new mid body gaskets in the carburetor - new front pads - fixed an oil leak Still need to do the chain and rear sprocket, plus fix a stripped weld nut.
- When you're sitting next to the danger end of pup, but she has gas. 💩
- Been here, been there. Mostly for work.
- This is me plotting getting a dead Envoy to stuff the olds 350 diesel into. I have problems. (video for reference) youtu.be/7lO9tEcXWlY
- Introduce yourself with what almost killed you Hi, I'm infant pneumonia.
- More fixing other people's bullshit. While I finish insulating this sun room I'm also adding proper junction boxes for the ceiling fans. Prior owner just attached them directly to the cedar planks. 😐
- The first 3 words you see will define your 2026. Marriage Friend Penis Uh...
- The benefit of picking parts from used cars is you get to practice doing things the wrong way. To remove the auxiliary heater I would have to remove the dashboard frame, but it also seems I could just bend a brace and then bend it back....
- Corporate training that is video only can go to hell. Like I really want to spend half an hour listening to Microsoft Sam rattle off at 0.75x speed something I could read in five minutes.
- Sorry for the potato quality, but holy heck those hackles. (we do need to look into addressing her territorial nature)
- Legitimate concerns aside, Twitter became a shit experience. Ads galore with the majority of them being outright garbage or scams. Images wouldn't load reliably, shitty behavior got promoted and the list goes on. Just from a general user experience perspective there's no reason to return.
- The porch lights that came with the house were mounted such that they hung below the bottom edge of the siding. So I printed some bezels in ASA that (mostly) matched the siding and cleaned up the appearance quite a bit.
- Facebook marketplace: Here's an item 7 miles from you Also Facebook marketplace: yeah, I can't find any of that.

- I just... I'm almost speechless.
- I'm trying my hand at code disassembly and wow... This will take some time. Doesn't help that ghidra offers to convert it into C-ish, but as I look at the generated assembly code I realize the C interpretation is really not accurate.
