Do you think Susie eats chalk because she likes or because she's poor?

@mansalia dude that was the real winner, I spend way more time and energy in the kitchen than the shed so like I need my shit working right.
Well, went to reassemble my mowing deck and found some parts with bad metal fatigue so I punted for the day. Will have to wait a couple of days for replacements.
Still a successful weekend: fixed sink drainage, revived a tool battery, got the mower deck figured out, got everyone fed, and had enough time to unwind in the pool and play some games. Still a successful weekend.

Goodnight, and remember to be a good steward.
Someone has to push back against entropy. Someone has to keep the wagons circled. Someone has to buck the trend. Someone has to be weird. Someone has to take care of the flowers. Someone has to *try*. Someone has to care.

@sapphire @pwm @iwillbite pork shoulder is usually slow cooked. I'm new to grilling pork, overcooked the ribs today, but at least they weren't covered in corn syrup.
Rejecting the mandate of heaven.
and a little bit of chicken fried
@pwm @iwillbite I just don't like using that word I guess.
@pwm @iwillbite I always just say grilling because BBQ sauce is a crutch and I don't want to be associated with it

@sun sub-second latency is ambitious. Best I could do was 3-5 with my "minimally viable product" streaming setup.
Replying to @sun@shitposter.world
@sun anyway, its choppy from here, every second or two it stutters. Librewolf on desktop.

@pix yeah no its still cool to the touch and last I checked was at 15V so I think we're recovering. I'm doing a feel-check and a sniff test periodically.
Replying to @prettygood@socially.drinkingatmy.computer
@sun disregard that, my problem.

@sun I've got the loading spinner permanently it seems.

Cool, just got a longtime friend blowing up at me and messaging other people calling me an ass because I dared to ask if they stopped their self-destructive behavior yet.

Did some real Applachian Engineering tonight.
I had a 18V Ryobi battery that wouldn't take a charge anymore. Multi-meter says like 0.5V across the battery (like on the array of cells contacts, not the tool contacts). Lopped the end off of a "12V" DC supply that read 15V on a multi-meter, touched wires to the contacts for ~30s at a time with a break in between until I got the battery to read ~8V, and now the standard charger is happy. Hopefully it doesn't burn my house down.
