due to scheduling concerns the return of it has been pushed back to Q1 2026

the good news is that they are owning up to it and sorting out pickup for it and so on.
But given its exam week man i just want a car i can drive 🙃🙃🙃

(there was no possible place for the nut to have fallen off without getting stuck inside the hubcap so it was never put on... the hubs are shot too)

and on the point of downsides
my blob uploads randomly failing. still not sure if its a backblaze issue or a pds issue or their s3 layer issue or who knows what. 🙃

on the point of trust
bookmarks bounce through PDS's and someone could theoretically be nosey on that (among other things that a rogue pds operator could do)

to be fair i think independent pds' are a thing that require a fair amount of trust and arent super compelling to most people. the people its most compelling to would probably just run their own for themselves for the benefits

like me (pds.l7y.media is not open and never will be :3)

also driving in general isnt great
but its okay in the day with no snow
at night, with snow, while talking (phone or otherwise), at 80 kmph
NO THANK YOU
driving scary
why are we trusted to do this

and i end up in a gravel shoulder at high velocity. i expertly played it off as if that was my intent the entire time and came to a safe and complete stop after hitting a bump that, if it was any worse, probably would've damaged something

anyway. i aint taking calls on speaker while driving no more

I'm pretty sure immich's machine learning models sit dormant in ram, and for so long they all just get poured into swap and it just fills up. I have made it bigger instead of resolving the issue because of course I have

if you sign in it'll also keep track of your vods you've watched and where.

If its just the cooler that cracked and the transmission is fine, it's not too major of a job. But if the transmission is screwed thats measuring in thousands of dollars... fingers crossed...

the extra spice to this is that the radiator has basically snapped at a spot, which resulted in the transmission fluid that was looped through it to drain, which MAYBE damaged the transmission (unclear yet) and drained coolant.
so now i got no car to drive to college till its fixed (w/ exams soon)
