Damn, my inlaws wanted xmas photos of all the family holding guns. They did this before. Even at the time i thought, “i dont think this conveys good will towards man” as well as you may think. I just wore my anarchy raccoon shirt :)

I still have a bulk of those CD’s (not the boxes anymore). I keep them in a binder with the CD holder sleeves. Same for my drivers, and operating systems. I have disks of going back to NT, 95b, and 98. I only started in to PC’ in 1998/9. I wish i had my original Voodoo3 driver disk. I remember buying that card in my way back from school one afternoon. I was so excited to install it.

I was skeptical of Steam when it launched as well. It has proven to be a good service.

This just feeds into my fear that the current internet is going to die at the hands of corpos. As a result, my paranoid ass has been buying up modems in the event we need to start from scratch.

fun with the GS (lemmy.world)

Weeeelll, i installed some new side markers on the GS this weekend. Pulled the badges, mounted everything, wired it up, and test good. Decide Saturday gonna wash the bike. Hit it with the hose, wash it up, hit it with the armor all, leather conditioner, etc. fire it up, and it wont idle. Long story short, tracked it to the TPS harness from the Power Commander. When i had the clutch done at the dealer, they seemed to have caught the harness in the clamp ring of the throttle body. A little water on the wire and no more workey right. Pulled the clamp and harness. Soldered a splice in and back up and running. I was freaking out though for sure saturday morning.

At least it isnt safety related. Based on the article it seems to be emissions.

high performance/temp brake fluid (lemmy.world)

Ok, its been 110 plus for awhile in my area. My bike is parked outside, in shade, but still warm by the time i start home. I have noticed my front brake is softer after the approximate 30 mins on the highway. I started to look into high temp brake fluid, and came across motul 700 (i attached wrong image, i absolutely mean 700. Not 600 or 660.) I am thinking of dumping that in when i do my next oil change. Does anyone else have experience with higher temp brake fluids? Kinda curious if it will work better in the summer and winter.

Blazing hot here, but got out early for a nice little ride to a breakfast place a couple hours from home.
