Oof

For sure. Just turn off the main. Went slow and triple checked. It all work d out 😁. I am fortunate that my father-in-law is an electrician, but I didn’t want to have to call him yet again.

https://youtu.be/iX3kxAA2L4Q great scene. Nope just a standard 20amp in my shop. We added another freezer since we just butchered chickens and didn’t want to overload a circuit on accident.

So I graduated in my DIY. I ran the wiring, wired an electrical socket, and added it to the breaker all by myself. TBH you can’t tell the difference between my hookup and the electricians. Now on to replacing the radiator in my mower.

I was wondering the same thing. I am also curious if the passengers had dirt on Hilary.

It is weird to see a product I work on in news articles. lol

Good times! We get home from our camping trip and I sit down to relax and find out our media server died while we were gone. Only found this out after finding my hydraulic bottle jack in my truck died and leaked in the floor.

This is the state of our camping trip. Our outdoor shower broke a handle so now we can’t use water until we get it replaced. Off to Lowe’s for parts so we can use water.

This thing really needs a central manifold so you can turn off water to each location. This has the reverse it branches everywhere.

The complete differences between my work life and non-work life are stark at times.

Today I did a planning session to modify an Open Source project to do better-automated load testing for our infrastructure. As well as some meetings around a microservice re-architecture.

I also have been working on researching Solana contracts development in rust, and understanding NFTs data structures on Solana for future integration into work systems, hopefully someday.

After work. I am going to be working on watering my garden, moving my chickens and hopefully working on my tractor.

Just two very very different worlds. lol.

I ordered a rebuild kit for my Cubs carburetor. I haven’t rebuilt one in nearly 30 years and that was dad showing me. It shall be fun.

I also ordered a new lever for the starter so I don’t have to press the button on the starter itself.

Moving forward. Hopefully I’ll get some time next week to work on it since I’ll be on vacation, but I have so much other stuff I doubt it.

Trying at least lol

Went over to the in-laws to see about borrowing their RV for the weekend. Yeah… it needs some work before we leave.

Hopefully we can get it done before Saturday afternoon when we need to roll out.

What is most frustrating is a part of society is like *yeah you tell’em*.

I got part 1 of my next video recorded tonight on a bit of an overview of drip irrigation that uses spray emitters instead of straight drip.

This is my first time going this route and I am liking it.

Next I need daylight to install. Then b-roll and edit.

I also converted over to a 4 port water hub for automation instead of 4 individual ones. I needed more and the weight was a bit much for the individuals.

The favorite joke is if AWS is down the internet is down. Though cloudfront having issues is crazy.

My favorite is vegetarian-raised organic eggs. Once I started raising chickens and learning about the different systems I was floored when I read that.

“Whereby we thrive history of American farming from 1607 - 1972”

I have really been enjoying it. Admittedly parts of it are a slog, other parts are over too fast.

Same here. The family is sick this weekend and our local internet tower has been down, just got it back a few minutes ago. So we have been pounding through books all weekend.

I have been reading a history book on farming. It has started with how land was apportioned before and after the revolutionary war.

That part is surprisingly interesting.

What caught me is they had a blurb about “Manifest Destiney”.

It got me thinking with has hard as the concept is pushed in high schools, college history, and sjw’s. I wonder how true and all encompassing it really was?

I have come to learn in reading history, post school, that the things pushed the hardest in high school, while true, wasn’t quite as significant or bad as described.

After all the best lies 90% the truth.

I now have another topic to research.

Thank you! I am glad it isn’t strep this time.
