...total cost of DIYing my Diesel maintenance, $250. Could you imagine what that would cost if I went to a dealership?

Knock at The Cabin - Perfect runtime length, no twists, offered much more than the trailer (trailer didn't spoil it) and fantastic acting by all. It was low budget but was a well crafted story. Wouldn't watch it again but it was still a 7/10. #OneSentenceMovieReview.
Fantastic day. Time to cook dinner with Heather.
Trying to find something to do in a city with a million people shouldn’t the this hard.
@kolin PARKOUR!

Thankfully Motul sponsors me so I get 50% off fluids. That helped me save a ton over buying all of these fluids at retail which would have been about $400.
The week is over, I’m excited though, actually had to buy some new hand tools for a truck project. I can’t believe I had neither a 27mm socket or a 14mm hex socket. Had to also buy a 1/2” driver ratchet for both of them. I knew owning a truck would require a few slightly larger tools. Project: …

@gruber “ Would you pay, say, $50/year to get an ad-free experience on Facebook’s products?” I stopped using Facebook in 2011 and Twitter in 2013. Both departures would have never happened if both networks had a paid plan that didn’t show me ads and allowed for non-algorithmic newsfeeds. So yes, $50 …
@lakelady of course! And I’m happy to reconnect.
@lakelady Yep, fool me once. I too learned the hard way through Facebook’s connect feature way back in 2006-2010 and lost a lot of account access that way. Vowed to never do that again.
Two weeks ago, I wrote about “Login with Twitter” https://adamchandler.me/blog/2023/01/17/technology-what-about-log-in-with-twitter/ In that blog post, I asked about what would happen if that went away or was no longer an option for consumers or services using it. Today’s news that Twitter will …
Todays #OfficeFashion. My wife dressed me. She always does a good job. The shirt I picked out was supposedly wrinkled.
On rainy and cold days like today, the thought of having 6 motorcycle trips in 2023 already planned makes the day go by much faster.
Long day in the office. I took the #701Enduro by the way. Love that bike for city riding since itâs so light and nimble.
Couple of fashion accessories arrived. #AppleWatch #Pride
Perks of working for a Bay Area tech company is we sometimes get the best ice cream sandwiches in the world as a surprise…even though we’re thousands of miles away in North Carolina.
