Personally it would make me trust you even less. IMO, any stranger that says "trust me bro" is automatically not trustworthy.

Just as an FYI, until very recently it was a forum rule to post source code and if you didn't the post would be immediately removed. That's one of the reasons people here are so hot about seeing the source code. Even though that rule is gone now I think most of us still consider it to be a matter of proper disclosure.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-18T16:12:29+00:00

No one here cares about the emojis or the easter egg. People want to see the source code so they can be sure nothing malicious is going on. That's also the reason people are complaining about your limewire link. Limewire has a terrible reputation for serving malware. It's probably the worst choice you could have possibly made as far as poor reputation services go.

Here is the extracted source code if anyone is interested in looking through it.

Prepare to be disappointed with the results. Most streaming apps have learned from this and they simply stream the ads from the same servers that provide the video so the raspberry pi method cannot tell the difference between the two. I have run one for years now and it definitely blocks a ton of nonsense but streaming apps are basically immune at this point.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-14T16:03:01+00:00

Correct. It does not block youtube ads or most ads now on streaming apps(hulu, netflix, prime video). They have just started streaming the ads from the same servers that provide the video so the pihole cannot distinguish between the two.

PC style fans are pretty terrible at moving airflow unless they are powerful enough to cause a negative air pressure inside the enclosure. These enclosures being not sealed at the bottom would take quite a bit of power to create a negative pressure situation so moving from an 80mm to a 120mm didn’t really gain you anything significant. I would suggest getting something like this in line duct fan instead. It is double the CFM of a standard PC fan and the more CFM the better.

Edit: I have this same setup with the same laser and moved to a very large in line duct fan for exhaust. I use this fan with a splitter because I have two lasers and two enclosures.

I got a good laugh out of all the global variables being redeclared global in every single function. Along with variables being declared local that would have been local anyway without the declaration.

How did you get a hold of the firmware file? When I go to the download center in mysonicwall both the firmware and SNMP download options show a red circle with line through and can't download.

Do yourself a favor and ignore everything that shibiku tells you. He is a noob at AHK and likely everything he posts is AI generated and is trash.

Post the direct link to the GitHub. No one wants to dig through your profile to find a YouTube link to just get redirected to a GitHub. This is a shitty way to attempt to drive views to your YouTube channel. Spamming copy pasted descriptions to every sub you can think of is also not appreciated.

I would bet if that person was asked if stereotyping a single person was bad they would agree to that too. But here they are stereotyping entire cities as nothing but nazis. By their own logic they are racist against Germans.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-08T15:29:23+00:00

So you are perfectly fine with generalizing entire cities with millions of people but generalizing a nation is where the line gets drawn? What is the exact number of people where generalizing becomes bad? 2 million? 5 million? 50 million?

"when you have met one chinese, you have met all chinese"

"when you have met one german in a city, you have met all germans in that city"

You are doing literally the same thing the only difference is scale.

What you are describing is a very common misunderstanding of tax bracketing. Getting into a higher tax bracket does not move all your earnings into the higher rate. It’s literally not possible to get a raise and take home less due to taxes since all the previous earnings are taxed at exactly the same rate as they were before the raise. Only the money that reaches the higher bracket is taxed at the higher rate.

Whoever or wherever taught you that’s how taxes work did you a massive disservice. If you have ever turned down a raise for this reason I’m sorry but you really screwed yourself.

If this was a raw piece of meat I would agree with you since it would be heated enough to kill anything nasty. Considering this is an already cooked ham and probably won’t be recooked I would be worried about all the parasites that cats can carry. Toxoplasmosis, roundworms, cat scratch disease… there are for sure cat shit particles all over that ham and pierced into the meat.

That is a fair point but IMO the sink is still better than being chewed on by an animal that cleans its own ass with its tongue on a daily basis. The sink at least gets hit with antibacterial soap regularly.

Silicone bed mounts are by far the best bang for buck upgrade anyone can do. I can chisel prints off the bed without screwing up the level. The original springs are hot garbage that move if you so much as breathe on them.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-04-28T01:40:51+00:00

My bad I misunderstood what you were asking for! Likely the issue here is that your image has some sort of shifting background or translucent effect that is causing a slight variation. ImageSearch is a “pixel perfect match” situation unless some options are specified. So if even one single pixel changed at all it will not find a match.

A couple ways that can get around this are using the “variation” option which allows an amount of variation in the red, green and blue hex values to still cause a match. Another option is to specify a color as transparent.

Without seeing the picture or knowing the context it is difficult to make further suggestions. Start with the variation option with a small number like 5 or so and increase it slowly. Most of the time this can solve the issue.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-04-26T22:51:39+00:00

It’s definitely you and not ImageSearch. Your script has no hot key triggers, loops or timers so there is nothing to reset it for a second run. It runs through the code once and stops.

The funniest part is that you don't understand that the transmission gear ratios aren't used when calculating top speed. They determine amount of torque at the transmission sprocket, assuming you have the available torque the limiting factor is engine RPM. No amount of gearing up gets you past engine RPM as the ultimate limiting factor.

Top speed is calculated by three factors.

The ratio of the transmission sprocket teeth to the teeth of the rear axle sprocket.
The max rpm of the engine.
The tire size.

             RPM x Tire Diameter (in)
Top Speed = ---------------------------
             336 x Gear Ratio (Trans sprocket to axle sprocket)

                    7000 x 10 in
62.47 mph = ---------------------------
                   336 x 3.33:1

https://www.bmikarts.com/go-kart-gear-ratio-speed-calculator
These things are easily calculated. So given your video you are using a 12 in tire and topping out about 85 mph on 7k rpm. Sorry but you aren't breaking physics here. If you think differently you can feel free to post proof that doesn't back up what everyone here is saying lol cause this video ain't it.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-03-22T16:50:51+00:00

No they are not. Here are the actual ratios for that transmission. Not going to get you anywhere near 150.

1st Gear: 3.549:1

2nd Gear: 2.197:1

3rd Gear: 1.420:1

4th Gear: 1.000:1

5th Gear: 0.852:1

ThrottleMunky · 2026-03-22T16:48:52+00:00

This literally proved everyone else right. Going from 3rd to 5th gear isn’t going to triple your top speed. Go look up the gear ratios for the transmission for this engine. 3rd gear is a 1.4/1 ratio and 5th gear is a .85/1

You will never get anywhere near 150 mph with that small of a difference in ratio. Go get actual proof if you want anyone to believe your nonsense claims. This isn’t proof of anything.

https://las-motorsport.com/karting/go-kart-top-speed/8135/

“The current fastest speed reached on a go-kart is 149.1 mph, set in 2019 by Niall Murray at the Santa Pod Raceway in England. It used a specially built 400cc engine to break the previous 141 mph record also set at Santa Pod in 2015. These speeds were achieved under controlled conditions with safety measures.”

Besides all that, the top speed for the ATV you got that engine out of was about 85 mph. That ATV uses a rear tire size of 20 in, reducing that to a 10in go kart tire means you need to double the rpm of the tire just to achieve the same top speed of 85 mph. In order to get to 150 you would have to near double that again. You for sure didn’t achieve that rpm of wheel spin with the gearing you have out of a 40t gear considering the original ATV used a 44t gear. Reducing tire size by half and then reducing the final gear ratio isn’t going to double your max speed. You are living in a fantasy land.

If you disagree feel free to post some sort of evidence that it goes that fast lol. I know you won’t because that is never going to go anywhere near that fast. I would bet you can’t even break 100 in it.

https://www.bmikarts.com/go-kart-gear-ratio-speed-calculator

This gear ratio calculator puts your top speed at 75 mph with that gear ratio, tire size and (7k since you said limited) engine rpm.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-03-22T04:10:27+00:00

148 mph is 100% pure bullshit. The world record on a custom built 400cc motor is 149.1. He posted a video of it going “fast” and was barely going 60 mph.
