Yeah I only found out recently because I had thought that it'd been an oddly long amount of time since the last update. Went to check for updates and the button was gone, so I flew over to the github page and saw the announcement lol

Which was discontinued, use Mihon instead, it's an active Tachiyomi fork

A custom head + rotary valve train, the EJ25 uses standard valves with a standard cam design, this is fine, but rotary valves have their own advantages and disadvantages that I think would be fun to tinker with. Unlike a regular valve, rotary valves don't have springs, therefore they don't experience the "valve float" that standard valves experience at higher RPM's, allowing you to rev to very fast engine speeds. They also give better fuel economy since they are much lower resistance, standard valves have to overcome the force of each spring in order to open, rotary valves are just a hole. Rotary valves are also non-interference, and if I blew the timing belt, it wouldn't destroy the engine

I'd also just like to be able to make shit out of metal, it's a brainworm of mine I've had forever

I've been wanting to learn how to work with metal for a while now, my current long time goal is to get good enough to make a rotary valve train for my Subaru motor. I've been absorbing a lot of information about how engines work and how these parts interact I'm just missing all the practical knowledge for it.

I'm staying away from most solids at the moment cause I can't keep them down. But yeah I do know about that diet cause someone in my family had to be on it for a while and will probably do the same once I can

My SO just got back earlier with some gatorade cause they had no pedialyte left. It's the first drink I could drink without vomiting and it was so fucking nice

I think I actually just got this, got home from work yestecday and my stomach was feelin a litte upset yeah? I kept thinking it was just gas buildup but no! I started blasting liquid ass and projectile vomiting at random. I tried drinking a glass of tapwater this morning, and it all just came back up.

Not fun at all

nice, was thinking about this for a while but I hated writing the MD to whatever GUI framework i used, and a lot of the other stuff is either really outdated looking, or just unmaintained

That's a lot more cookie than I intended but I would probably try to do it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Chowing down on the cheapest and shittiest cookies i can find. Don't know how I got the habit but I've definitely eaten 2 dozen packs in a sitting before when I was really stressed

For some odd reason I burnout very frequently, or more like I get so brain dead that I literally cannot even come up with an Idea of what to do, let alone act on it. It feels like when I even try to start I get so exhausted that I have to lay down.

It always happens after I'm the most productive, but my down time feels so much longer than the time I get to create. I'd say I have at least 4 days to a week of productivity, and about 2 - 3 weeks of burnout. It's nuts.

The cycle repeats, though it can vary wildly in how long each part is.

I'm starting to get hella annoyed since I haven't drawn a thing in over a year and I was finally getting back into the groove at least doodling daily, just to be derailed hard.

I was thinking that I just lack creativity, but it became this catch-22 of "I have to actually draw with purpose and make things that I enjoy" and "I am so fucking tired that even opening a sketchbook or cleaning makes me want to take a nap / drop into a dead sleep".

What are your thoughts?
