Yeah I only found out recently because I had thought that it’d been an oddly long amount of time since the last update. Went to check for updates and the button was gone, so I flew over to the github page and saw the announcement lol

Which was discontinued, use Mihon instead, it’s an active Tachiyomi fork

A custom head + rotary valve train, the EJ25 uses standard valves with a standard cam design, this is fine, but rotary valves have their own advantages and disadvantages that I think would be fun to tinker with. Unlike a regular valve, rotary valves don’t have springs, therefore they don’t experience the “valve float” that standard valves experience at higher RPM’s, allowing you to rev to very fast engine speeds. They also give better fuel economy since they are much lower resistance, standard valves have to overcome the force of each spring in order to open, rotary valves are just a hole. Rotary valves are also non-interference, and if I blew the timing belt, it wouldn’t destroy the engine

I’d also just like to be able to make shit out of metal, it’s a brainworm of mine I’ve had forever

I’ve been wanting to learn how to work with metal for a while now, my current long time goal is to get good enough to make a rotary valve train for my Subaru motor. I’ve been absorbing a lot of information about how engines work and how these parts interact I’m just missing all the practical knowledge for it.

I’m staying away from most solids at the moment cause I can’t keep them down. But yeah I do know about that diet cause someone in my family had to be on it for a while and will probably do the same once I can

My SO just got back earlier with some gatorade cause they had no pedialyte left. It’s the first drink I could drink without vomiting and it was so fucking nice

I think I actually just got this, got home from work yestecday and my stomach was feelin a litte upset yeah? I kept thinking it was just gas buildup but no! I started blasting liquid ass and projectile vomiting at random. I tried drinking a glass of tapwater this morning, and it all just came back up.

Not fun at all

nice, was thinking about this for a while but I hated writing the MD to whatever GUI framework i used, and a lot of the other stuff is either really outdated looking, or just unmaintained

Purgatory is a perfect description of living in Nebraska

Im the smartest dumbass I know

Same but with a Vega APU, also love it when it merges the console screen with whatever was on there bufore suspend and it’s just a text graphics rainbow mess

Kinda weird, is the first gen Vega Apu different enough to not have these problems? Cause I’ve been pushing that thing hard enough it’s starting to have actual hardware faults, very rarely had software related crashes that couldn’t be resolved with a temporary kernal rollback

They’re all aight, but avoid asus like the plague, they don’t last very long and have tons of incompatibilities with linux. I’ve only had mine for 3 years and it already needs a new mobo as the pci lanes for wifi and bluetooth suddenly died

the oldest is one of my portable cassette recorders, a very early GE model that is in near perfect condition. It’s so early on it doesn’t have much info online, and seems to be rare, but unwanted.

The one im the most proud of is my IBM LexMark model M keyboard, It’s older than me, abused to hell, modified, and is still my daily driver because it’s so comfortable

Freakishly warm today in the midwest too, raining warm rain too, very odd weather for winter season

I just got myself very sick by forgetting to turn the heat off while sleeping, so no

I failed math 3 years in a row in high school and I made plenty of minecraft clones using nothing but logic and basic algebra. Math isn’t as important to programming as people say, I still can’t do division or multiplication on paper, but in a program, I can make it do that for me.

Fucking UPS with the same garbage, the form for changing your address was broken and would display an error, the phone call support refused to help and told me to “just use the online form”. I wocked around it by opening the form, pressing the back button, opening it again, and then it would display properly… Just to change a single fucking number in the apartment unit category. Those are 2 hours of my life I’m never getting back.

Wanted to make games as a kid, got way way waayy too into it, now I just make my own programs when I need to

There’s a video from the YouTuber Noodle who does a good job explaining it
