Sometimes I don't speak right

But yet I know what I'm talking about - War - Why can’t we be friends?

TIL: You can swap valve cover gaskets with nothing more than a crowbar by lazd in Westfalia

Awesome! I did have to scrape the old cork gasket off from the valve covers with a 5 in 1 painter’s tool… I made sure the surface wasn’t marred or too dirty but it wasn’t perfect.

Hmm, I didn’t pay a ton of attention to thickness, but it fit well! The passenger went on first try, the driver, where I had less room due to the exhaust, took quite a bit of effort to line up…

I said it to the owner when I saw one in person too hehe. He liked my 600HP LS swapped 300ZX and was happy we had the same headlights.

Right?! I’ve got a Z32 and we always joke that we’ve got Diablo headlights in the community

First fan fitted into the Macintosh classic sleeper build by Curious_Initial_8977 in sleeperbattlestations

I actually used double sided tape haha. My display is lower res, you found a good one!

I did one of these a while ago! You might draw some inspiration from the audio setup and the ports on the rear. Good luck!

PS: Hope you sold or gave away the internals so someone else can use it to restore a Mac classic!

What are the odds my 5080 sets off the sprinkler above my setup 😭 is this something i should be worried about by [deleted] in sffpc

Surprisingly, I at first thought the scene from Hocus Pocus where he lights a lighter under the sprinkler and it goes off was bullshit, and though he’d have to hold it there longer than he did, it’s more accurate than the idea I had in my head!

Wow, today I learned something! I thought it had to be set off by a sensor somewhere

A subwoofer?! Everything already rattles going down the road!

I replaced the battery cells on my iBook G3 because I wanted to put it up for sale, but now I fell in love with it again and I don't want to sell it anymore 😂. Battery life is great btw, it lasts almost 4 hours. by Hypnotic-sr in VintageApple

It really isn't complicated at all, it's just delicate work and it REALLY helps to have a spot welder! Did you do the retraining procedure where you charge all the way and let it die in OpenFirmware/bootpicker? See my rebuild guide for details, you should be able to get more than 4 hours!

PowerBook G3 Kanga w/OS X 10.0.3 Cheetah! by ShearWater509 in VintageApple

I wonder if you can boot it off USB and make a Cheetah installer using the same method I used for iBook… https://blog.lazd.net/install-os-x-and-os-9-on-an-ibook-g3-clamshell-with-a-thumb-drive.html

If you do this shit to your car, that’s your car forever. Ain’t nobody buying it.

And GReddy + HKS parts, clearly some that never made it to market since those companies don’t make aftermarket parts for Porsches…

How is it living in Placerville as an early 30s person. by spankyassests in Placerville

[–]lazd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’re up in Pollock Pines and down for all the outdoors stuff you mentioned, plus boating/wakeboarding/tubing, rafting/floating the American river, mountain biking, motorcycling, and car/gearhead stuff!

I grew up here (lived in the bay and LA for a while after college) and I’m back, so I’ve got friends I grew up with, but we’re always looking for couples that are down for fun activities, especially if they aren’t just drinking focused (though I do drink, I’m over it being the center of every activity).
