  @Ronguest My neighborhood lost power a few years back and I did the same thing, expecting my S9 noise to go down. It did not. :/

  @rev_mook@blog.benmook.com I was expecting the Peertube video to show up here directly, but that didn't happen.

  I've started sending messages to sellers of BMW airhead "cafe racers" asking if they have the original parts to put it back to normal.

  I've been messing around with a self hosted #peertube server this year, running on corporate ewaste trash in my hot, dirty basement. The hard disk has over 67,000 hours on it and now fails to reliably read several blocks. I'm hoping I can get a RAID running on it and synced to a new disk before it completely fails.

  Hard to tell, but this is a receipt from Nova Cycle Supply, 1991. They sold their own inexpensive tubesets. They closed a few years back, and the next cheapest tubes are Columbus Chomor, which I can't seem to find anywhere. #bikes #bicycles #diy

  Texas Instruments has enshitfied some parts I like. NE5532 has a lower slew rate, lower rail voltage, and might not like to push 600 ohms. OPA134, a fancy pants part, removed external DC offset trim pins. Part numbers for both devices have not changed.

  I've pulled all my #AREDN equipment off the roof at work. It had a good run between 2020-2026. The #debian machine that hosted services had an uptime of 1000+ days before the building lost power and the UPS shutdown.

  It took months, but I finally fixed my fediverse-blog integration problem. If you tried to follow it, but got a "request pending", it was because my server was dropping the actor request. Give it another follow if your original request is still stuck. @rev_mook@blog.benmook.com

  I found this technology in a dusty room at work. I'd just like to point out that I had nothing to do with this storage medium.

  I attempted a #SOTA activation in foul weather. When I summited, the snow turned to heavy rain and I got soaked immediately, so I turned around without ever actually calling CQ. I'll come back for the points when it's warmer.

  @becomingwisest@hachyderm.io Didn't make it on this trip, but I went last time I was in Tucson a few years ago. There is a special, paved parking area right next to the antenna with a metal box and some coax. You just pull up, unwind the coax, connect it to your radio. Very cool the public is allowed to use it.

  I went to #tucson to climb around on mountains and look at super fancy rocks.
