Yeah I will. Some great stuff everyone's contributed! Playlist is absolutely massive now, almost 25 hours of music. Just gotta give it a good listen and see if I can trim away some of the stuff that made it on there that's too tangential or doesn't really fit the vibe or whatever.

Everyone's been a great help thanks!

I love replacing something that lasted 20 years, and turning it into a 6-12 month maintenance item because the OEM part is no longer available at any price.

I love not being able to just rebuild something myself because the rebuilders hoard info and parts.
I was VERY happy with that starter-alternator supplier that Kastein (I think) put me on to. Cost me all of $9 for the plunger and $1.36 each, plus shipping, to make it so the solenoid actually works. Saved me a stupid amount of $$ for a new or rebuilt starter. I should have done that with the alternator, but I forgot to send back the core to Rock Auto, so I still have the old one...

There was a certain era of bass song that was engineered to sound good in subwoofer heavy car setups. This was one of them, and car people from that era will know.

Oh, wow, that brought back some memories. I think I have a Nemesis tape around somewhere.
That pretty much is what Nemesis was all about, period.

About time, Euro NCAP will deduct points for lack of physical controls for important functions from 2026:
https://arstechnica.com/cars/2024/03/carmakers-must-bring-back-buttons-to-get-good-safety-scores-in-europe/

I didn't see the Ars article mention which functions but a swedish site says "blinkers, hazard lights, windscreen wipers, horn and SOS functions" are the ones which need physical controls.

Sound and Fury is mostly great, as it's a compilation of multiple studios doing different songs/segments. Kamikaze Douga did those (the "main" story) and they're a smaller studio that only does like, commission work if I recall.

I think it's good but consider that the absolute worst case is you are still sitting there listening to the entirety of Sound & Fury. So even if you hate the visuals you're still listening to an absolute killer album.

i have a couple ~decadeish old little plastic packets that ive used once or twice, but i really dont like using anti-seize. gross goop that gets everywhere, and it honeys up your threads. it's about as bad as thermal paste, except that's actually necessary for function sometimes.

I got mine at least a decade ago and there's easily another decade or two remaining. Probably the latter since I've mostly switched to using threadlocker for fasteners.
