Back after giving myself a month away from Fedi.
I'll attempt to curate my experience much more, starting with this account and instance.
I want comfy things in my life - I don't need to be adding stress and angst from my online interactions. We can do better. We should do better. Including myself.
My interests cover #tech, #photography, #biking, #motorsport, #fountainpen, and other things I will no doubt need to add here when I remember.
I touch computers in my spare time and self host things. Oh yeah so #selfhosting I guess.
In my other spare time I renovate my house and do #DIY stuff.
Oh and I (used to?) play music. #Guitar I still have and sometimes play, #Saxophone I used to have a couple of decades ago, I had 6 months of Drum lessons, and played Bass for our school band in Rockquest in the late 90's.
I have never done anything that cool since.
Oh I live in New Zealand, Aotearoa.

In case you have not done so yet, surf the Wave of the fossify organization, check which of these applications are good for you, since they have no ads, they are free and open source and they are Good at One thing, just like a proper Unix program

"Amazon argued, that the class was too large to be manageable"
This is my favorite defense to a class action suit.
"We cheated so many people, we can't possibly be expected to make it up to everyone"

This 1955 Ford Prefect was covered in 2 cent coins, including a scooter on the back also covered in coins. I live for this level of eccentricity.

elaterite@mastoart.socialVia @codepo8 :
"Windows 10 support ends in 2 months, potentially making a lot of computers obsolete and dangerous to use. https://endof10.org/ is a great resource to avoid that by installing Linux - aided by experts and with simple to follow guides."
And I'm happy to help you transition from Windows to Linux as I'm able. I've been a Linux user (and supporter) since the late '90s.

Sidherian
Sidherian@aus.socialNanjing and Guangzhou researchers tested a single-dose engineered SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain in mice.
Given intranasally, it blocked infection, prevented transmission, and triggered long-lasting immunity stronger than vaccines.

On this Sunday night, I would like to once again thanks the wonder of Bandcamp for allowing me to legally download all the music I just purchased, give most of the sale to the artists, and allow me to add tips for the hard working human artists.
Give your money to artists, not platforms.
And frak all the tech stealing from them.

09 Rav4 2.5L Automatic
Misfire cyl3 at *highway speed only*. Swapped coil. misfire stayed at 3. Swapped and cleaned fuel injectors. Stayed at 3. Compression test is normal range, and all cylinders are within a couple psi of each other. Car drives under 60mph, shifts and idles perfectly fine.
Ideas:
VVT system is noisy but it has been for 70000+ miles
Weak/cracked valve spring?
Fuel Injector seals (but compression is good?)
