When he grabbed my by the throat and lifted me up a wall. Because i hit a door jam with a table leg, while moving it from the living room to the kitchen so he WOULDNT get pissed.

Laser 50 Personal Computer

We were poor, but my mom got me one of these. Ran into the mem limit multiple times, but those were good days banging on that. This thing and C64 magazine.

Ok, gonna migrate my archive/plex server to linux on the next iteration/rebuild. I do have a question, as it will affect my timeline. I have an 18TB Raid6 array on a HW raid card. I plan on building out a new raid array when i build the new server, but the end of Win10 has advanced my time table. With HW raid card, can i migrate my array to new OS build. I thought about booting a live distro and seeing if it can recognize the array. Probably the safest approach. Has anyone migrated Operating systems with a raid array? Let alone from windows to linux?

I remember buying Suse Linux in the box at CompUSA where i lived. I was so excited!

Frighteningly, i worked as an admin at a hospitality wifi business that ran a windows box for dhcp duty. I would have to go o site, in the middle of the night, down to the basement of this hotel, and reboot the damn thing. It would die almost every week. Replaced with a linux server and never heard from them again.

I think i still have a copy of this OS. Along with NT4.0 and various others. I hoard stuff like this.

You are absolutely correct, and it disappoints me so much.

That episode unsettled me

 

Been working on my speed shifting. Damn it feels good when you hit the rpms right and you hop the GB up and dont lose momentum.

 

This band is great at night on a ling desert highway.

 

Weeeelll, i installed some new side markers on the GS this weekend. Pulled the badges, mounted everything, wired it up, and test good. Decide Saturday gonna wash the bike. Hit it with the hose, wash it up, hit it with the armor all, leather conditioner, etc. fire it up, and it wont idle. Long story short, tracked it to the TPS harness from the Power Commander. When i had the clutch done at the dealer, they seemed to have caught the harness in the clamp ring of the throttle body. A little water on the wire and no more workey right. Pulled the clamp and harness. Soldered a splice in and back up and running. I was freaking out though for sure saturday morning.

 
 

At least it isnt safety related. Based on the article it seems to be emissions.

 

Lost my second primary coil within a year. May have to go OEM instead of ebay.

 

Stopped to get coffe on my way to work, as usual. Caught a guy i have ran i to a couple times, though he is usually trailering in his bike so he can ride home. It was a treat to see him riding in this morning :)

 

Got out this weekend for breakfast. Stuck behind skme trucks the whole way, but meh.

Ok, its been 110 plus for awhile in my area. My bike is parked outside, in shade, but still warm by the time i start home. I have noticed my front brake is softer after the approximate 30 mins on the highway. I started to look into high temp brake fluid, and came across motul 700 (i attached wrong image, i absolutely mean 700. Not 600 or 660.) I am thinking of dumping that in when i do my next oil change. Does anyone else have experience with higher temp brake fluids? Kinda curious if it will work better in the summer and winter.

Blazing hot here, but got out early for a nice little ride to a breakfast place a couple hours from home.
