[00:14] DaemonFC It was probably inevitable given the trajectory of the manually blacklisted results. If they could do with with peoples Web forums and Bittorrent sites, who didnt think theyd get around to this one next?" [00:15] DaemonFC "One can only speculate about why they decided to start nuking all the porn, while Google still returns reams and reams of the stuff. [00:15] DaemonFC There was chatter about trying to offload the Bing Lemon onto Apple. [00:15] DaemonFC And as we all know, Apple goes around, like a group of mobsters, site to site, app to app, threatening everyone to delete the porn or there will be.trouble. [00:15] DaemonFC A few years after ruining Tumblr, Apple went and roughed up Reddit. Now Reddit is complying (at least on New Reddit) by shoving a QR code in your face and telling you the porn is only available in their App, which spies on your entire phone and displays advertising, so you can anonymously view the porn. [00:15] DaemonFC If Microsoft is looking to offload their Lada onto Apple, this would be a good place to start." [00:17] DaemonFC Still working. [00:17] DaemonFC schestowitz, We should run this.

[01:23] DaemonFC Guess it was that coolant temperature sensor. [01:23] DaemonFC I hate sensors. [01:23] DaemonFC They tend to be cheap, but.... [01:23] DaemonFC They usually have to get so bad they're sending "impossible" readings, die completely, or be so off the car goes "WTF". [01:24] DaemonFC So it's basically a "WTF" light by the time you see anything. [01:24] DaemonFC It can cause problems before you see the light. [01:25] DaemonFC In this case, the car didn't know if the sensor was bad or if the thermostat was stuck open. [01:25] DaemonFC But it was also possible that acting like it was stuck open could cause an overheat if it wasn't. [01:26] DaemonFC So the fail-safe mode was to run the radiator fans constantly and set the light. [01:26] DaemonFC It's worse to not cool the engine enough than to not let it come to full temperature. [01:27] DaemonFC An overheat can do catastrophic damage in minutes. Not running at full operating temperature isn't ideal, but it won't kill the engine before you can get to the shop.

[01:30] DaemonFC I think all that chemical backflushing and the partial rebuild got all the crap out out of the system. [01:31] DaemonFC I've been watching the overflow tank go down a little. I'll go out and top it off tomorrow. [01:46] Sompi I hate closed-source cars. [01:49] DaemonFC This one is at least not meant to be reprogrammed "over the air" or connect to anything. [01:50] DaemonFC Probably the worst you could do to it wirelessly is tell it there's incorrect tire pressure. [01:50] Sompi Yeah, that's the only good thing about those early digitally controlled engines [01:50] Sompi Still, they are completely black boxes and often their self-diagnostics is just crap. The error codes always point to wrong direction [01:55] DaemonFC On this car, the error codes are usually pretty good about where to start looking. [01:55] DaemonFC Sometimes the exact component but usually at least significantly narrowing down where to start.

[01:57] DaemonFC It wasn't a fuel leak because I put cardboard all over the place to see if I was dripping gasoline somewhere. [01:57] DaemonFC But like, I think the gas cap wasn't sealing right or something. [01:57] DaemonFC But it didn't narc me out to the emissions station, so who cares.

[09:07] DaemonFC I wonder if Matthew Garrett and his pet Lobster are in here. [09:07] DaemonFC They should read this part: [09:07] DaemonFC There's nothing that pisses off a leftist troll mob like a person who can think for themselves. [09:07] DaemonFC Hell, I'm gay and I have a mob following me around, launching virulently homophobic crap my way and trying to get me banned from everything. [09:07] DaemonFC It greatly offends them to see someone who was so badly oppressed by the American government for over 30 years that he not only had no Freedom to marry, but could have been arrested in half the states of the first 19 years simply for existing, who says openly that he doesn't like what America has turned into. [09:07] DaemonFC Even long after the 1970s, well into the 2000s, mainstream Psychiatry in America was very openly homophobic. If you spoke to a psychiatrist, you had to tread lightly on the entire issue. [09:07] DaemonFC When I was a teenager in the early 2000s, a Psychiatrist asked me "Are you attracted to men?" and I said "Absolutely not." [09:07] DaemonFC Later on, I read his clinical notes, and he wrote down that "he agrees that he is a NORMAL [all caps] heterosexual male". [09:07] DaemonFC The way in which he asked it led me to believe I would face trouble if I said yes. So I lied. There's no shame in lying to a person like this. [09:07] DaemonFC What was I supposed to say to a person who had the legal authority to detain me without trial and fill me with primitive pharmaceuticals if he didn't like me? [09:07] DaemonFC "Why yes, yes, I am everything you hate! You know those people that just blew up New York City because they're Muslims? Well, I'm GAY. Not only gay, but I don't believe in God! You hate me MORE!" [09:07] DaemonFC Even at 17, I was smart enough to pick up on where he was going with this guy. I knew I wouldn't be a martyr. I would have only picked the wrong hill to die on. [09:08] DaemonFC Historically, gay people haven't been treated a lot better than the Jews. The Nazis did the same things to gay people that they did to the Jews. [09:08] DaemonFC It isn't just being gay that makes people hate me, it isn't just that I'm an atheist and have been one since (at least) 1998 or so, for sure. It isn't just that I had the balls to come out as both in the time and place that I lived, and suffered greatly for doing so. [09:08] DaemonFC It's more than that. One of the crazies that follows me around and tries to get me banned everywhere was talking about "gay rights in the world", as-if I was the one that needed any lectures about living in a shithole. [09:08] DaemonFC They act like rights come from the government. That's something that only a fool could believe. [09:08] DaemonFC The government doesn't give anyone a right. You have to take them. Sometimes it means openly ignoring that law. For half my life, being gay was a crime in half of America. Ignoring the law that made it a crime was not wrong. [09:08] DaemonFC Eventually, you sue and you vote, and you hope it relents, and that it may finally give you some of the things that other people were entitled to for tens or hundreds of years, or for as long as this government has existed and denied people rights.

[09:11] DaemonFC This American government has hurt me and kept me down and taken everything I've owned repeatedly. This government has protected people who have attacked me in the street, and it has attacked me. [09:11] DaemonFC Why wouldn't I be against it, in principle? I have a long memory, and I don't tend to forget who the enemies are. [09:16] *schestowitz gives voice to ZedHedTed [09:17] DaemonFC schestowitz, Brandon Lobster noticed I followed it on Mastodon.

[22:13] DaemonFC MinceR, This particular engine likes to trigger the check engine light, but....it's rarely any sort of major problem. [22:13] DaemonFC I've had variations of this engine in several cars and when they get to this age it's usually a check engine light once every couple of years but it's always something cheap and stupid. [22:14] DaemonFC It has so many of those "run down to the parts store" $25 sensors on it... :) [22:14] DaemonFC Another common issue is EGR valves. [22:15] DaemonFC If the weather outside is any sort of agreeable or you can wait and get your emissions sticker after the weather is good, you can just drive on that one for a while and handle it yourself. [22:16] DaemonFC It's such a simple valve that you can get some Chinesium one for $50 and a GM gasket for it and call it a day. [22:16] DaemonFC The Chinese valves tend to work okay, but the gaskets they include are often not a good fit and then it leaks and turns on the engine light again. [22:16] DaemonFC But you can buy a GM valve gasket for $20. [22:18] DaemonFC It's amazing how there's another "space race" on to visit a dead world during a major global recession because the Chinese claim they'll set up a moon base. [22:19] *MinceR gives voice to jacobk [22:19] DaemonFC They can't even make military rations that won't have their own soldiers in a field hospital and they're going to have a base on the moon.

[22:21] DaemonFC "Not long after leaving Earth's Solar System, the wandering Moon passes through a black hole and later through a couple of "space warps" which push it even further out into the universe."

[23:08] DaemonFC They bump it up by 1 percent of your gross pay and you have to get in there and manually set it back. [23:08] DaemonFC There's only so much that it makes sense to risk. [23:08] DaemonFC That's the 6% they'll match and if you qualify for the retirement savers tax credit. [23:09] DaemonFC So like, that means half the money you "gamble" with in the retirement scheme came out of the taxes you would have owed to the government that year and theoretically, Walmart doubles your money up to 6%. [23:10] DaemonFC If you start throwing in money that Walmart doesn't match and the government has already capped the credit, you're just risking your own money in the scheme for no potential benefit other than "maybe" the economy might look less horrific later. [23:10] DaemonFC But the hyperinflation and layoffs continue to rage. [23:11] DaemonFC The government is throwing $1 trillion onto the national debt every 90 days because of wars and the private sector economy failing and a nation full of Brandon Lobsters of our own.

[23:21] garrus I got some good deals on trade-ins from PD, I bought an NYPD GLOCK, a .40 S&W and an AR-15. [23:22] DaemonFC Your time zone suggests you're in Europe. [23:23] DaemonFC A region that is not known for having good laws about Freedom of Speech or Right to Bear Arms. [23:23] DaemonFC The gun laws in America are not the problem. The problem is that this country is a dump and when you have a dump you end up with a lot of violent criminals. [23:23] DaemonFC Then the State responds by attacking the people who haven't done anything wrong. [23:24] DaemonFC Who are the only people who are not going to break the law to get the gun. [23:25] DaemonFC I'm sure that the people they catch with an Uzi that just sprayed down a house party in Chicago made sure that it was a pre-ban model, with an ATF tax stamp and chain of custody, and that they have a FOID Card, and a CCW. Also, the Uzi doesn't exist because Illinois doesn't allow you to have an Uzi. So how did the Uzi happen? [23:25] DaemonFC :) [23:26] DaemonFC MinceR, ^ [23:27] *oarion7 has quit (Quit: Running IRC on a charmed medieval abacus.) [23:27] DaemonFC Also a mystery. Illinois passed a law against possessing DEFCAD files, then it passed another law making 3d printed guns illegal even though they were already illegal since there is no way to register one in the FOID Card system since they already violated federal laws regarding mandatory metal components and manufacturer serial numbers. [23:27] DaemonFC So after it did all this, the Governor continues complaining about all the "ghost guns" found in crime scenes. [23:28] DaemonFC They're so easy to make, so cheap, that after a criminal kills someone with the stupid thing, it's just a liability so they toss it somewhere. [23:28] DaemonFC It costs about 10% to replace that vs. buying a gun that was once legal in some other state that had the serial scratched off.

[23:54] DaemonFC I need to go out and top off the oil when it's not raining. I checked it hot and I was down a couple hash marks the other day. [23:55] DaemonFC I've got a partial bottle of 0w30 full synthetic FRAM in the trunk. Maybe 4 ounces in there. Time to just pour it in and leave the bottle hanging upside down to drip. I can drive the car another 1,000 miles or so and get another top off bottle then. [23:56] DaemonFC You're not really in trouble until you've lost more than a quart on this engine and are still driving the car around. 2 hash marks is still less than half a quart. (2/5ths) [23:57] DaemonFC Losing half a half a quart after 1,900 miles is not outrageous. [23:58] DaemonFC The engine officially calls for 4.55 quarts, but then they actually take something closer to 4.8 a lot of the time before you're at the "full" mark on the dipstick. [23:58] DaemonFC So at that point you may as well just go and pour in the rest of the jug. [23:59] DaemonFC Despite the specification which has never changed from 4.55 quarts, some people get to full at 4.55, others don't get to full until 5. [23:59] DaemonFC Sounds like quality manufacturing up there in Canada to me.... [23:59] DaemonFC MinceR, ^
