Electric Motorcycles are absolutely AI (CA). Especially in supermoto trim since the lack of noise fully supports stealth hooning.

Well it looks like I'm flying to Seattle to get our well drilled next week, I'll probably be there Monday through Friday if anyone wants to burn poo poo and drink beers on 5 acres of blackberry in a socially distant manner. Warning, I am likely going to be sleeping in the back of my rental car the entire time so the later in the week people appear the more distant you will want to remain.

Anyone know offhand of any old vehicles that people still like tuning, that use 27C64 style (JEDEC standard pinout, 8k x 8 ROM) tune chips, that people would be willing to pay for a socketing service, wirelessly tunable modchip, and android/iphone app for tuning for? I can entertain 27C128 and 27C256 (16k x 8 and 32k x 8) as well within a reasonable hardware budget.

I'm already looking at designing exactly this for a family of vehicles that zero companies offer tuning for right now, but figure I might as well cover any other vehicles that are out there using this stuff while I'm at it, or at least have a list of platforms to add in the future.

e: it looks like B series Honda is 27C512 (could probably support that), D series may be 27C256?

That may cover my 98 TDI ecu as well but I don't know in that detail yet. I do know it has to be socketed to be tuned. I was going to use a newer flashable ECU but that would be so much more my jam.

So the vet that I checked with before I got Stormy told me that they weren't taking new patients when I went to make an appointment. Awesome. Enter super panic mode vet calling the last 2 days and most of them didn't even know what a coati was let alone had experience with one. I finally found one today that said they may have to anesthetize depending on temperament. Perfect, that means they have experience with coatis haha. Huge relief for me. She doesn't bite (anymore) but she can be super hyper and into everything including jumping on tall things including people shoulders, climbing legs and arms and sticking her nose into every orifice on your head. I got the 3pm appointment so I can tire her out as much as possible before she sees the doctor. Getting a dog just wouldn't be as exciting as this.

It looks like those use a pair of 32-lead PLCC 1mbit EPROMs. I am not sure how to support those in the way I planned to, but I'll have to think about it now that you brought it up. Those are also substantially larger than I planned to cover, and might require a hardware design change since the approach I was planning to use will cost at least 130 dollars just for the two memory ICs.

It just felt like the dude was trying to project his poo poo on me. It was really uncomfortable and he was kind of hostile which is what made me hostile.

ya i mean you know better than I for sure since you were there, and i certainly wouldn't tell you to pick a therapist that makes you uncomfortable. but keep in mind therapy isn't exactly going to Feel Good at first so just make sure you have your expectations totally aligned and you're coming in with as open a mindset as you can

I've been tryin' to speak with you for a long time
What process are you using to find therapists? Are you paying cash or using insurance? When I was looking I googled [my biggest issue to address] therapy [zip code] and was getting a list from Psychology Today of all the therapists that did that kind of work in my area. Then I found someone with a license and a master's degree near me who looked like the type of person I could connect with. I filled out the online form, he called, did a free consultation to see if it would work, and we were off to the races. If you're near a city of any size and not constrained by insurance, you ought to be able to find someone you are comfortable with.

Edit: yeah therapy hurts a little at first because it gets you out of your comfort zone. It's worth it though. I almost lost my marriage and family and now things are going really well. There were about 8 months of hell to get here though.

I went through work initially, they offer free counseling sessions and hten they match you to a shrink. Well that guy ghosted me so I reluctantly hit up my father in law who IS a shrink and he matched me with this guy.

And he's paying for the first few sessions because he's the literal best person ever.


Edit: also I finished patching my walls and they look pretty good so I primed all the spots I patched and we're ready for paint whew!

And my friend has a house with a shared driveway and new people moved in nextdoor and keep parking in the shared portion and he's probably going to burn that house down.

My wife just had her car detailed and the guy sprayed some air freshener in it that stinks, why the gently caress would you do that without asking first?

The car used to smell like leather, almost like a nice new car smell and now it reeks. This is why you have to DIY it never fails.

That's irritating. My wife had the same thing happen and her car smelled like a minicab for a year.

I've had the same guy do my two cars that deserve detailing handle mine for a couple years, but I still always tell him 'no air freshener' even though he's never used it.

I dunno if any of you are on Teltik, but it looks like they might be pulling a Harbor Mobile (again). Can't activate new lines, can't change plans, CS is pretty much a ghost.

Of course, I prepaid several months when the stimulus check came out, I still have a month left. Deciding if I should jump ship or just let the prepaid amount run out (and hope my line doesn't disappear in that time), since I don't think I'll get it back. There's reports on reddit about lines randomly being deactivated, and I've managed to get access to My T-Mobile - the bill for my line is a month overdue, normally billed to an Amex, last charge was declined.
