So I injured myself again! Went for a a bike ride for the first time in a LONG time. Got jelly legs then had a senior moment and fell down my front stairs cracking some ribs. Again. Won't be on the tools for a while. At least I can still go to work.

I camped out in a nearby field for 3 hours one night last week to see them too. I saw 35 or so.

Does anybody know of some decent online info about them. Wikipedia says there are going to be 12-42,000 of them eventually!. I'd like to know how visible they are going be be later.

I meant how visible they are gonna be in 6-18 months once the other 1100 satellites are up there (wikipedia says there are 400 now and going to be 1500 by late 2021).

am i gonna see lines of 60+ satellites? Am i going to be able to see multiple lines going in different directions? will i see a grid of them? (which would be even cooler than a line)

Elon will probably make them in dickbutt arrays

I love the steering wheel

And yes, the steering 'wheel' is zippy-tied on.

I aquired it roughly 5 years ago when I heard someone dumping something in our skip. It fell out the back of someones ute as wasn't tied down, then dropped into a skip. It's sat under my house all busted up since, and only last few months we've got it working and got rid of the old belt drive.

And before someone mentions it - yes a chain guard does exist.

gently caress. I was cleaning my glasses this afternoon and they snapped in half. Fortunately I have some prescription safety glasses sitting around, but they're giving me an annoying eye ache.

I found an online glasses place that says they'll have a new pair out to me on Thursday. Hopefully they arrive and fit and work. The old glasses were three or four years old at this point, so definitely due for a replacement. I imagine daily wear just fatigued the bridge, and they failed right around the weakest point. When things reopen I'm going to get my eyes checked and get some proper glasses fitted.

But hey the good news is I also found the sunglasses I thought I'd lost.

Holy poo poo and snapped your keyboard too! Careful Banner!

Yeah the second gen angular mid 80's one. Jesus it's cool.
But yeah, the parts availability is what's putting me off. I'd think Toyota would be using the same stuff for many cars, (engine, transmission etc) but I guess not?




You bloody better buy that now! That looks like it is in some minty condition on the outside!

Not my car but if the owner wants to shoot it, I'll let you know

Yaaaaaaay. 51 today. Just me, 3 cats, one loving Outback and a pile of other Subarus which mostly all work. Stepkid's trip here cancelled, honeymoon that was supposed to happen in NZ at Christmas looking more than a bit dicey, wife 13000kms away and oh boy if you think I have a second's loving sympathy for little whining fucks going on about wanting a haircut you got the wrong Aussie for that. gently caress those assclowns that are making this Covid-19 poo poo worse than it needs to be. I would very much like to do more than talk to my wife over the Interwebs and assholes that give zero regard for the ease of spread are just selfish fucksticks.

(Completely loving over it but I'll put up with it until the pandemic is over because that helps make it shorter)

I don't want to come off as even more of a oval office, but this virus really has ratted out so many industries that aren't essential. How many loving hair dressers and cafes does a suburb need?

Pulled the trigger on a top of the line Ego self propelled mower today. Battery is charging now.

After watching dozens of youtube reviews the Ego just seemed better engineered and more powerful than any other cordless mower. Cons: it was expensive

I used to work at a place that did the warranty work, and that place still slings me every warranty repair because they hate working on them.

Granted I've only seen 2 this year. A DOA after literally 10 metres (self propel one) and the second the over-temp sensor within the battery hosed up and read a false positive that the battery was having a melt down.

They are a complete pain to work on, and the warranty company has one tech support guy for service agents to organise parts from. And that dumb bastard kept sending me ESCs to fix a problem that I repeatedly told was within the safety switch in the handle.

Much like any Bosch appliance - they work great until they dont.

(To clarify - I do also own an Ego, so not like I hate them completely) - bonus is mine is slowly getting a pile of parts to become self aware (brains of an LG robo vacuum)

There's a new leak that Trump and his cohorts downplayed C-19 on purpose to keep from spooking the markets so yeah, definitely gently caress the poors.

In any other universe this would be a joke.

A few weeks before this COVID poo poo started I fired up an old trading account and for a laugh bought Afterpay shares at an all time low. Best profit % I ever made in a week since 2000-2001 with Metalstorm.

I dunno about the US, but in Sweden tanking the market = tanking all the pensions for normal people. So you gently caress the poor either way.

For many years I've been slackly bitching that my 'Super-Annunciation' retirement fund will be somehow absorbed into the government funds. I'm seriously tempted to draw as much as I can from it within the new rules. I have zero trust in our system.

Just mounted remote controlled blinds in our skylights in the hall. Perched atop an 11 step ladder, working above my head. Very happy it's done.

Now hopefully the Scandinavian summer sun rising at 4:30 will stay on the outside and allow me to sleep in, just a little bit. Waking before you toddler is not natural.

I have 20 ft ceilings and 2 separate smoke alarms started their low battery beep. I thought they were AC powered but the step-ladder, and a macgyvered device of two brooms and some duct-tape fashioned like an oil filter cloth type removal tool did the trick. Now to refit the fuckers with real ladders.

So Tuesday big boss asked if i wanted to take some time off as I have been smashed with work lately. I said "yep why not next week?"

RIP the office. As far as I can tell from managers down to average joe workers still seem to think I'm coming in monday. The missed calls for the 2-3 hours between when I start and when the big boss might turn up is going to be hilarious to look at when I awaken from drunken slumber at midday or similar in the middle of a paddock in my swag after a full night of night photography.

Seeing that brings back a lot of fun memories on our tiny sunfish sailboat at the cabin growing up. I'd wake up early and just go back and forth across the lake for hours.

Hmm that could be good


Finished it now. Was very very good. A few names I completely forgot, a few names I have on rotation and some I'll be adding. There's so much much more they could do but it would never end. John Carpenter was great as the narrator, drawing from his beginning needing to make soundtracks for his first movies etc.
