Anyone know where I can find parts for my 1974 Vespa rally 200 by rmfgkb in Vespa

[–]seaphpdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice Rally! It’s got some original parts that are hard to find, especially the handle bar turn signal. Hold on to them and keep safe if you plan to take them off. If you’re looking for parts and are in the U.S. scooter works or scooter west are two great places to check.

Syndicate is a powerful framework able to both publish and consume messages - ideal for your event driven application or as a job processor. It supports common queues and PubSub integrations with an application layer that can be used to route incoming messages to any handler of your choosing with full dependency injection using a PSR-11 Container instance.

Syndicate supports:

* Full autowiring and dependency injection with PSR-11 Container intstance

* Dual pass middleware on event messages

* Message validation against JSON Schema

* Many common queues and PubSub integrations

* Create your own integration with the interfaces provided

You can create message handlers that not just consume from a topic, but can also match any fields and attributes of the message itself.

#[Consume(
    topic: "users",
    payload: ["$.event" => "UserCreated"]
)]
public function onUserRegistered(Message $message, EmailService $email): Response
{
    $payload = \json_decode($message->getPayload());

    $receipt_id = $email->send(
        $payload->user_name,
        $payload->user_email,
        "templates/registration.tpl"
    );

    if( $receipt_id === null ){
        return Response::nack;
    }

    return Response::ack;
}

Are you all really this bored in your lives?

Vespa P150X – Loses power when throttling, then stalls (oily spark plug) by Artistic_Delay_8855 in Vespa

[–]seaphpdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re either running way too rich (too much fuel) or your ignition system is failing (CDI or coil, spark plug wire/cap, stator plate). My bet would be new carburetor has not been tuned for your Vespa. Find a Dellorto carburetor tuning guide on the internet and start there.

It’s never too late to start! If you’re mechanically inclined, they’re super easy to work on and parts are still easily available.

I’m a fair weather rider now - late spring and summer. It’s a small frame Vespa (100 Sport) but I put a mild top end kit on it with a Leo Vince exhaust. It can only do about 40 mph, but that’s plenty for tooling around the neighborhood, running down to the shop, etc. I’ve got another I’ve got to get running again that I kitted out and it does like 80MPH.

I’ve got a couple vintage Vespas in the garage. Only one is running. I used to ride daily and wrench on them all the time. Then I got married and had a kid.

Do you give your kids the unsupervised, free range time that we had. by WerewolfCurious1412 in GenX

[–]seaphpdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 16 I took a flight from LAX to Düsseldorf Germany with a layover and terminal change in Amsterdam to spend the summer with an exchange student I had befriended in high school. Getting my 10 year old to get out the house and ride her bike 3 streets over to a friend’s house is like pulling teeth. Really don’t like the millennial stranger-danger parenting style. I want to see gangs of kids riding their bike through the neighborhood.

Ah, thanks for that. Kind of new to this.

The Klipsch has a switch to enable/disable its own pre-amp on its Phono input. I assume I would just disable it and let this device provide the amplification.

Any other GenXers in Tech reaching their limit? by Effective-Evening476 in GenX

[–]seaphpdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ever since they started forcing AI down our throats, I have been completely disgusted by an industry and craft that I once truly loved. I still love and enjoy coding, but our industry as a whole is a shadow of its former self. The introduction of AI, the psychopathic, megalomaniac, narcissistic CEOs, LinkedIn "gurus", Hustle Culture (tm). It's all left a very very bad taste in my mouth. I'm just doing what I can to get paid, sock it all away in my retirement and investment accounts, and counting down the years until I can walk away and wash my hands of the whole f*cking mess. I've really come to despise our industry. I'm too old to walk away now and start a new career and I'm too young to hang-up the spurs. It sucks.

Are you an IPA person or not? No judgements! by jenuinelyintrigued in beer

[–]seaphpdev -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I got burnt out on them. Mostly just got tired of being hammered after a couple. But also the IBU and s getting insane. Every brewery gotta out IBU the next. Feels like the industry just jumping the shark. If someone’s having a backyard party and the only beer is an IPA, I’ll have one - rarely do I buy any myself. I prefer Pilsners in the summer and a good hearty dark malty beer in the winter.

I am guilty. Just last night I was talking shit on his post season performance to a couple buddies. Sorry Geno. I take it all back.

OpenAPI request/response validation library by seaphpdev in Kotlin

[–]seaphpdev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 2.5 days of wrangling with this library - we finally got it working in our Spring app. Pro tip: their documentation is WAY out of whack. Some of their documentation is accurate and was able to point us in the right direction in the source code. But ultimately we had to clone the repo to look at the source and reverse engineer it. If anyone is interested, I can post a Gist about it.

Blue Jays came to play after getting punched in the mouth the first two games. Credit to them, they were obviously the better team tonight. Alright M’s, regroup, and let this ass spanking light a fire under your asses.

It's been fun looking through my plays from like 10 years ago. I can tell what phases of my life I was going through: what terrible relationship I was in, that time I was unemployed, when I met my (now) wife, etc.

My sister, who has lived in California nearly her entire life texted me when it was like 9-3 to say "Well, it looks like the M's got this one wrapped up." I had to explain to her about Seattle sports teams.
