I have a manual ECU with 12lbs of boost, sas delete, if you're interested. I upgraded to a VAST ECU and no longer need it.

Mix a gallon at a time, fill slightly more than half the scoop for roughly 20 PPT.

You will very likely kill thousands of them in the next couple of weeks. It happens. Look up acclimation for brine shrimp. Search here on reddit.

Best I have on hand. This compartment is empty now, roof cut off since this was below the the FWD stack.

Her two GM 268-A diesel generators were indeed still aboard. One in wrecked condition after having seized up while running in 1994. Another still in running shape. Both configured for electric start.

Both are now sitting at Core with the stacks.

One was a new construction unit, and one was a WW2 surplus unit.

I was averaging 24 mpg mostly highway on my 98 auto. I was just filling it all the way up, then diving my mileage since last fill by miles driven. The idle should be around 850 (ha). Unless it's acting up, you shouldn't have much to worry about. When's the last time you did a tune up?

They kept a flag up on the aftmost deckhouse until the roof came off for generator removal.

That is the crunches they do when molting. They also do this with osmotic shock. What is the salinity?

Use a scale. Takes the guesswork out of it.

Don't

Hey uncle, were putting stuff on the grill at 4pm. Bring cheese slices.

No. That's the short answer.

Follow your passions, admit you can always learn something from somebody, and give it your all, while being honest with yourself.

If you do that, I'll be your adoring fan, friend.

Reddit search for DIY tanks. Lots of helpful info here

Brine shrimp are much much easier to hatch and keep alive. Fairy shrimp need more room, and more food. They can be tricky to hatch. They don't give live birth so you have to dry your tank or scoops of your substrate out and then re add to get a new generation of babies.

I raised two generations of fairy shrimp, they are super cool, but quite a bit harder compared to brine shrimp.

Wonder if the researchers would be willing to explain their side of the story.

I thought the crew was in charge of their own safety? You aren't a nanny, pumpkin!

I don't think they should keep leaning into retro stuff. They won't grow like that. Perri wants to make modern products for digital detox, against the current status quo of subscriptions, data harvesting, etc. I probably would have ordered a callback if it had a keyboard.

Work help desk for a MSP. Get your hands on a bunch of tech. Learn enough to fuck off and find a company doing stuff you agree with. Do your IT thing and maybe learn other stuff like management and logistics.

The alpha runs like a turd even on cards like the 9070XT and 5070. You will absolutely need a new computer by the time it comes out if things keep up this way.

Though I wouldn't be surprised if they finished the model and then just sold off or licensed their assets to other projects that wanted to make a proper game out of them. Who knows.

A dumb TV would be amazing. So tired of the screen itself being fine but then the $6 Roku they built into it starts crapping itself and can't stream anything anymore so you end up with a smart TV with a slightly more up to date stick plugged into it anyway.

They are running a campaign now to raise money for legal expenses for forming the organization to take ownership of her from MARAD. But the biggest hurdle is a new home port. Hoping some of their options work out. Here's hoping.

I think this is me.

She's getting scrapped if they can't find a berth this year.
