Seathru , to Do It Yourself in DIY, what are you working on this weekend?

I’m going to attempt to fix my truck’s air conditioning. Of course it waited until the weather was sweltering hot to stop working. I know just enough about refrigerant systems to be dangerous, wish me luck!

If that’s successful and/or doesn’t take all weekend, I’m going to try to build some temporary screening around my tiny back porch to give me somewhere to sit outside away from the mosquitos.

    Yeah, that side is more my speed, too. I built an arduino based compressor controller a few years ago when that went out. But this is something internal (high side pressure pegging the gauge 30 seconds after the compressor engages).

    Took it by a friends shop to get it evacuated today and they agreed that my amateur assessment (dryer and expansion valve) was where they would start first. So I’ve got a bit more confidence going into it. Fingers and toes crossed I don’t find a bunch of metal inside.

    Installing a new sink and dishwasher, here’s to not flooding the place. Probably.

    I’m in the process of destroing an old, out of service fireplace, to rebuild a fake one with an electric radiator.

    The chimney hadn’t been swept before it was taken out of service, and now I know how much I hate tallow.

    I need to tighten the bolts on the kids toilet, lol. Otherwise just running a ton of errands (none DIY-related).

    Monkeyclock1234 ,

    That reminds me I need to take a look at the flusher on my toilet. It’s being intermittent

    Sweet! Doing it all yourself? How long is it expected to take?

    Very cool.

    aperson , to Photography in My Buddy, Carwash, In His Tree / Leica M (Typ 240)

    I think I’m more interested in the history of that nickname than anything else.

    ARxtwo OP ,

    Long story short: he met his future boss at a carwash while they were talking, boss wrote down his number with a description of where he met him rather than a name, introduced him as the guy from the carwash to all the new co-workers, and everyone just started calling him Carwash and the name stuck. Not a lot of people even know his real name anymore. I’ve heard it before, but I don’t remember what it is.

    I’d be down for a paperback. If I don’t win I’ll buy it anyway, though.

    .EPUB would be great! Did you do both languages? Or did you write in one and have someone else translate it?

    I started the writing in English primarily, translating to Portuguese during edit phase, aiming to keep the reading flow around the same level. However, the best experience will be reading it in English, in my opinion, as it has a better vocabulary for this genre.

    Kicking corporate ass sounds like exactly what I need right now. Congrats on making your dreams come true! I’d love a paperback if I’m lucky enough to win.

    AmoraHello , to Literature in Lemmy Exclusive Book Giveaway: Ghost Trigger

    Would like to try as well! Love the cyberpunk kind of universe (we also have the game with the same name). I only have the reader from the ipad, so anything compatible with it. If not, paperback it is.

    Also I speak portuguese, so if you wrote it originally in portuguese I don’t mind have the original version (if I m one of the lucky ones).

    Thank you! Obrigada!

    Mas se preferir ler em português, ficaria muito feliz em saber sua opinião sobre a versão!

    AmoraHello ,

    Muito obrigada! Sim também concordo que o inglês tem mais sonoridade, parece que faz mais sentido neste tipo de universo.

    Obrigada pelo voto de confiança, vou ler os dois e dar a minha opinião.

    Pamasich , to RedditMigration in Reddit feels like it's gone back to 100% normalcy already. Was the protest a failure?
    @Pamasich@kbin.social avatar

    A quarter of all subreddits are still private or restricted (can't post in them). This includes ones like /r/music or /r/programming. Of the 6 30+ million subscriber subreddits, only 3 have returned to normalcy. One is restricted, two others are in john oliver mode. The developers of Minecraft have officially abandoned Reddit as a platform, and advertisers are still pulling out as well.

    ProtonBadger ,

    Oh advertisers are pulling out? That's something they will be able to feel. Do we know to what extent currently?

    Nice. Is that PETG or PLA?

    Fisk400 OP ,

    Orange parts are pla and black grid is PETG. I got a free roll of PETG filament, any filament will probably do. Its all addnorth that I really like.
