Could be - tbh it’s been a minute since I looked into those. Either way, a low mileage pull is an excellent option and will last the life of the car if well maintained…

Meant to mention those and forgot! As long as it’s got some kind of decent guarantee that’s a great way to go. Should be plenty of them out there, as I’d imagine most of those vehicles end up getting totaled in accidents of varying severities rather than dying from engine problems. I do believe the Japanese engines are available as a result of their having stricter emissions requirements, BTW…
As someone who is seemingly constantly working on computers and has done a ton of engine building and other deep car stuff, in addition to the garage mentioned previously, I’d recommend buying a buildable engine core for your subaru, getting that built (either do it yourself - recommended, or by a machine shop - will probably work well, but will cost a lot of $$) and having it ready to install rather than trying to pull the existing engine out and rebuilding it - especially if the current engine still runs.
Unless your plan is to make a hobby of having exploded cars in the yard, this’ll go a long way towards putting an end in sight for an engine rebuilding venture.
Also fuck all car subscriptions - that’s some gross profiteering right there…
A) I applaud you for your masterful continuation of the pelagic theme of this discussion about Elon porpoisely allowing this project to flounder into Davy Jone’s locker.
B) TIL that an anglerfish lure is called an esca and that a sufficiently literate person can seamlessly weave such an unusual word into this net of fishy discourse… Bravo!
Dude, I love your sandy brain! TIL!
This is the way. Win is already activated, no need to pirate anything. Just get a >= 8gb flash drive, download the installer creator app from Microsoft, and reinstall Windows. It will activate based on the licensing level the machine came with, minus the crapware, which is from the manufacturer’s OS image, not Microsoft’s.
Same. I love my Plex server - I rip all of my physical media audio and video to it and can watch/listen on all of my devices. Music is especially fun on Plex, as it pulls in great bio info for most of the artists, which makes organizing my decent sized music library a fun bit of zen…
I’d pick up a NOS or tested used board on eBay. Make sure to tweak your search terms to exclude broken and parts systems, look specifically for ATX form factor boards from 99.5% and higher feedback sellers and you should be fine.
EBay has a ton of retired server hardware that’s in more than good enough condition for long term use by a home user. Non specialized form factor stuff is a smaller subset, but it’s out there in good quantities.
Also, although it would work great, the last thing I can imagine would be buying a new board for an old server CPU from Newegg, etc. The pricing for new server hardware, regardless of generation, is quite steep.
Yeah, you don’t want to know more 😐.
What an incredible image! Love it!
Thanks! I love them too!
There are a handful of gardening sites that sell the egg cases, called ooths. I got mine from Hirt’s Gardens - needed to get a native mantis type so as not to introduce a non-native species to my area.
Got them specifically for natural pest control. Hopefully they come back next year like the sunflowers did - guess we’ll see!
One of my favorites too!
That is actually a Sunflower! My wife has been planting them over the last 3 years or so and this year they’re upwards of 15 feet tall.
All of the neighborhood small animals are converging to eat the flowers, and the dogs are eating whatever the squirrels happen to drop.
Thanks so much!
Me too please! Would love the highest res image you’re willing to part with. This is amazing!
Beautiful serpent, great pic! Been waiting to see some snake pics on Lemmy - thanks for posting!
Can also add filters for Trump and Vance in your user settings (I’m on Connect) and stop most related posts from coming up in your feed. Was able to rescue myself from a tidal wave of Sailor Moon Ai posts in my feed that way 😁.
