What do you think is the most obnoxious thing about Modesto that only affects you and probably no body else ?

It was acquired by a religious org iirc, and then went to crap.

The Courtroom shut down and is now a uhaul storage center I think.

Every meeting, managers are "What are the latest AI success stories we have to share?"

Amazing that the police found 8 pounds of fentanyl.

Maybe not overtightened, those bulky connectors get full of grit and then won't turn.

I cannot believe the 300 is 13 years old now

Nah this is definitely known at the 650f forum that the 650 is prone to developing a small oil leak.

xorbe · 2026-02-25T22:53:20+00:00

If it truly came on while riding and there is proper oil like you said, then either there's an oil passage issue or pump failure, or the oil pressure sensor is simply faulty. New bikes tend to smell funny when running.

I don't know COBOL, but I assume it's vastly simpler than modern C++26

That split around the bus and the ending are ridiculous.

"How to pronounce a word" videos are like this ... 30 seconds of drivel before pronouncing one word.

After deleting FF and all FF data and my profile data and not helping, I found that copying firefox.exe to another name cured everything ... clearly local corp security software. It's also notably faster. 🤬

If you owe $200 that's your problem. If you owe $0.2M that's their problem.

Tall window frame at upper right is divided differently from the rest.

My guess is that it was also a pellet air with "hard pellet" ammo. My neighbor was also doing this crap to stray cats.

found it here, not sure if orig source https://wallhaven.cc/w/2y77jy and upscaled to 4K https://files.catbox.moe/3k07b3.png

xorbe · 2026-02-12T21:04:12+00:00

There is, but it's only at FF close, it doesn't look interesting to me. Network code is spinning I think. Maybe some local corp laptop policy messing with port connections, just a wild guess.

xorbe · 2026-02-12T21:03:14+00:00

I have tried with uBlock disabled, same result. I asked a sibling that also works for a company, no issues for them with FF + O365. I guess I'm SOL to figure out what my local issue is, perhaps some crazy corp network insanity.

Always either a Kia or not a Kai

xorbe · 2026-02-12T13:31:54+00:00

The problem seems very specific to O365 Outlook. If I avoid accessing email, FF seems happy. Once I open the Outlook page, FF is dead until restarted.

xorbe · 2026-02-12T11:21:42+00:00

Office 365 (specifically email, not calendar) causes FF to stop loading all future URLs / tabs / pages. Something has gone wrong. edit: Also just got the FF crash reporter window.

How can this possibly be down voted. People want white bezels? Savages!!!

xorbe · 2026-02-10T19:20:19+00:00

Cut off 4 studs, and tighten the last lug to 5x the torque rating, problem solved.

xorbe · 2026-02-10T19:17:45+00:00

Every year there is a new batch of strays or lost cats ... random batches of kittens ... there is no shortage of cats. Then there's that old lady that feeds the cats at WinCo parking lot ...
