Dealing water in the garage and leaking into the house from under the base boards ... apparently I have a slab leak

YEA! I finally got my 25 yr old snowblower fixed!.

Bring on the snow!

Finding parts was a headache at times. Spark plug, head gasket, carburetor, new head bolts, and belt. The 5 old head bolts was a straight edge 1/4-20 screws. Didn't want to take a chance on them for retorquing. So I replaced them with 5, 1/4-20 flange bolts. The guts of the muffler fell apart from the vibrations. So I have a gutted muffler. The neighbor across the street will love that.

Crazy thunderstorms here this morning. Really unusual for January.

Those things are worth their salt.

Final 4TB drive showed up today. Time to build a 24TB RAID array.

madwi · 01-22-2018, 07:11 PM

Just in time for the influx of all the new 4k Linux ISOs out there.

Yea, we got rain coming tonight with thunder.

It's going to be between 40 and 50 for the next couple of days. All the snow in melted. The ground is still frozen. And the river is running high.

Rained all day and melted almost all the snow. We have a roller coaster for temps coming up this week.
