I just thought it was funny their stars lean to the left. You’d think they’d have blown a gasket over this but it seems they just haven’t noticed.

- Comment on Microsoft still can't convince folks to upgrade to Windows 11 1 month ago:
Have the not learned anything? In 30 years of windows releases???
To get customers to upgrade, they have to release Windows 12. We only upgrade every other major version, because every other major version is terrible. Including W11.

Diesels that run CNG/Prop run it WITH the Diesel as an additive/power boost/starter aid. It is not a replacement fuel.
Propane/CNG injection is done through the intake manifold, not the injectors/fuel system. A diesel cannot and will not run solely on sparkable fuel.
- Comment on ✅✅✅ 1 month ago:
Old mechanical injection diesels use the same principles of physics as the new ones do, just with electronic timing and fuel injection. I mean, the engine may on this stuff at least once. For some length of time. You can also do pretty much anything at least once. It’s the consequences that are the issue. You’re just doing the damage slower by diluting the fuel that doesn’t belong.

It even makes my regular glasses slip down all the time. Some frames/pairs are better than others, but it’s hard to escape.

No they won’t, unless they’re built with a gasoline based engine, which almost no one orders, because the mileage to fuel ratio, cost, and power are terrible for OTR hauls.
Diesels will run on lots of less refined oils using only the heat of compression, like kerosene and fuel oil, as well as being able to run on their own oil (diesel runaway). However CNG, Propane, Gasoline, and other commonly sparked fuels will, in very short order, catastrophically destroy your diesel engine because they detonate at much lower compression than diesels require.
Furthermore, you’d ruin your high pressure fuel pump as gasoline doesn’t have the required lubricity. The injectors would probably be fine, but your pump and your cylinders/pistons/crank/rods/mains would be having extremely bad days.

- Comment on Is a monocle uncomfortable to wear? 1 month ago:
I’ve used jeweler’s eye loupes for extensive periods. They’re not terrible to hold in place unless you’re sweaty. If it’s too small it can become hard, but it generally rests in your eye well and is held in with friction rather than muscles. I do have a set that clip to my glasses now, which I need as I’ve gotten older. Those are easy.
People who only need correction in one eye get glasses with a prescription in one eye, and a plano lens in the other, which is just a clear lens with no correction or adjustments.

- Comment on I'm "use NFS forfilesharing old." what's the current optimal solution for shared drives if I have like 3 linux machines in the house? 1 month ago:
TrueNas is pretty top notch and offers a variety of storage and protocol options. If you’re at all familiar with Linux style OS, it should be pretty easy to work with. Setting up storage comes with a little bit of a learning curve, but it’s not too bad. This SAN/NAS OS is polished, performant, and extensible. If you’re not planning on using SMB or Samba, you can most certainly use NFS, or iSCSI if that’s your thing.

- Comment on Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those? 2 months ago:
There are a number of collectors and enthusiasts who enjoy alternative types of media. It was an experience listening to music on tape and hearing the hiss of the tape. It has a different sound to it, sort of like vinyl.
If there’s money to be made, they’ll find ways to get it. If that means selling tapes, they’ll sell tapes again. Records are still back in style and being mass produced again.

It’s all about what works best for the particular individual. The majority of people want some hand-holding, and that’s ok. Not everyone is into designing their own hotends or completely rebuilding stock printers into monsters :)

TBH I prefer the older machines, I stay away from the proprietary all-in-one stuff. I’m all about modularity, and usually means keeping parts and processes standard between builds for production’s sake.
