It's useful with close friends and family. Preferably the app would have a way to turn off sharing my location when I don't want it shared.

 

I recently switched from Iphone back to Android after giving Iphone a try. A lot of friends and family still use Iphone but would like a way to track my location.

What's the best app equivalent to Apple's Find My that's available on both Iphone and Android?

I've been using Loki and promtail for containers I actually care about aggregating logs for. It's something relatively new for me but so far the experience has been positive.

Update: I was able to find some time to test the battery with my voltmeter this afternoon. Voltage looks fine with the ignition off - but as soon as I turn the ignition on the voltage drops to near 0. So I believe the battery is dead.

I think the next question is if the battery is bad or the charging system. I'm going to throw the battery on a charger overnight and see if it will hold a charge. If the battery holds a charge I'll likely take the bike to the shop to get the stator, etc. checked out.

That we’ve been to the moon - in there 60s - but haven’t been back or been out further. I think it would just be against all their expectations.

No lights at all on the dash. It seemed strange to me as well to loose power all at once. The bike was running fine right up until it died as well.

My initial thought is that a cable came loose or melted or I lost a fuse. I pulled the seat and side panels but couldn't see anything that looked physically wrong with any of the wiring. I tried reseating all fuses with no luck as well. I didn't have a multimeter with me on the trail so I wasn't able to do too much diagnoses.

I probably won't have time to look at it in depth until Sunday or Monday. I'll start by testing the battery and then probably start testing connections. I'll update the thread here with what I find.

 

I ride a newish KLX300 that I haven’t had any problems with yet. Today I decided to go on a quick after work ride to the canyon near my house. The canyon’s mostly dirt roads and gets rough near the top.

As I was working my way slowly over a rough patch the bike suddenly shut off. The engine died and the instrument panel lost power. The bike is EFI so I figure I lost electricity which caused the engine to die as well.

I checked what I could like fuses and obvious connections that might have come loose. I ended up catching a ride down the canyon and went back up later to trailer the bike down.

My initial suspicion is that the battery lost charge. I figure this could be due to a bad battery or a bad stator. Any tips on how to determine if the stator is bad? I’m hoping to go over things with a multi meter now that I’ve got the bike home.

No. The road is cut into a pretty steep slope so there's not really a way around.

I’ve blocked a few communities here and there. Not a bad way to control what content you’ll see personally.

Surely there has to be more going on here. Prigozhin turning around, exile to Belarus, and now this doesn't make sense with what's been publicly reported.

On my previous setup I did a cheaper quicker build out of wood. I loved it so much when I got a new truck I decided to put some time and money into a refined version. Ended up doing the frame out of aluminum but the drawers are still out of wood (except for the face plates which are just aluminum sheet).
