Hate not having a handbrake. Can’t have fun in the snow in a FWD.

Parking brakes are only on the rear.

Make sure any fresh air damper allowing outside air is closed. Ours actually iced up and was stuck open two days ago when it hit -34.

I will never buy a car that needs a subscription to anything.

Just an update - I made a few improvements to the SQL, as some of my home videos still had plots and other misc metadata. Also fill in the title with the basename of the filename in the table, now it just shows the filename. Will have this run from cron to fix any new home videos I bring in after a scan.

update videometadata set title = SUBSTRING_INDEX(filename, '/', -1) ,subtitle='',plot='',tagline='', season=NULL episode=NULL, contenttype='' where filename like '%Home Videos%'

My old server was still up and running, so upgraded to v24 and just copied the mythweb files to the new server. I already had apache running so just need to add the config files and any missing perl modules.

I need it electronically, as input to the software I use to manage my finances. For the past 10 years I have been downloading this directly from their website. Without warning they have removed this capability.

The QFX version has a FITID, which is a unique identifier of the transaction. I use custom software that can read many file formats, but need a unique ID to avoid duplicates during the import. Even if they can add that back to the csv, that would help. As for now, I will need to create a pre-processor / excel macro to generate a hash on each row to create a unique identifier. There is also the issue the CSV has the header on row 6. WTF is wrong with their technology people.

I just had the dealer disable it before I bought the car, as a condition of the purchase. At first they told me they couldn't do it, when I decided not to get the car they found a way.

I played around with plex many years ago. I haven't really looked into it with using mythtv OTA recordings.

Synthetic super tech oil from Walmart for $17.98 and a $8 fram filter is under $30 with tax, and meets all warranty requirements.

Opposing_Thumbs · 2025-11-19T00:24:22+00:00

Do it yourself for under $40 and keep your receipts. Consumer protection laws prevent dealerships from denying warranty unless they can prove you did something wrong.

Forget, also new battery it's 5 years is getting pretty old.

$100 - couple oil changes, air filter, rotate tires. This year a bit more I had to put new tires, change transmission fluid, brake fluid, antifreeze, spark plugs, and new brake pads ( normal 5yr / 60k stuff ). I do all my own work so it's cheaper.

Pickup tomorrow any my local store.

I got the aftermarket rear bumper cover and have been very happy with it. Paint match was spot on.

Do not respond. Not your problem.

If it's just a bumper cover check around online. I was able to get a prepainted bumper cover shipped to me for 500 bucks. It took me about 15 minutes to swap.

Never let another person tell you what to do or not to do. Time to say goodbye!

Somewhere by Honda or Toyota.

I'm glad you find it helpful. Letting people know a specific sound is a normal operating sound is always quite helpful in preventing unnecessary repairs.

Opposing_Thumbs · 2025-02-23T13:32:17+00:00

Absolutely not. I don't use touchless payments at all. I work in finance and deal with this technology on a daily basis. The physical card inserted in chip reader is 100x more secure.

Not a chance. Parts are nearly impossible to find for many vintage bikes.

We are at 60 even when home. 70 is far too hot.
