I think it would count.

By remake do you mean shows like Fringe?

Dude!

DevOps?

X-Files

Yikes, you’re right. I was so down for this until it was going to $75+ CAD per magazine. I’m really sad now.

Safety third!

Miata is a gateway to many things.

Off

I guess you could say that. The first is that I have multiple drives. I did install CachyOS on its own Ext4 drive but I have others that I wanted to use as is where I have games installed. They use NTFS. They worked on the first day fine but wouldn’t auto mount on reboots. After setting them to auto mount and despite never booting back into windows they just stopped being writeable on subsequent use. Everything I researched said this had something to do with Windows fast boot. So I disabled that but the problem persisted until I installed ?ntfs-3g? And used it to run some kind of fix that set them as writeable.

Then eventually I found that any download that took some time in Steam would fail with disk read or write errors even when trying to install to my Ext4 root drive. I tried all sorts of download and cache clearing and uninstalling and reinstalling steam. Eentually someone said to run cachyos-bugreport.sh which revealed a whole bunch of usb device errors with a sim rig shifter. I unplugged it and since then my steam downloads are able to finish and work. I don’t know how that is related but… Well anyway things are working right now.

I did decide to try CachyOS and I’m a week into it now. There’s been some hurdles to get over though.

We should have gotten one of him with Leclerc

Okay. I’d been hearing that performance gains were essentially immaterial or on a case by case basis, but that the prepacked stuff helps things “just work”. For example I like Sim Racing and I use a Fanatec race wheel, I’m hoping that one of these would reduce the hassel with it.

Windows 10 Pro. Yeah I guess I could do that. But I have multiple drives and was going to just install one of these onto it and boot into it or back to Windows if I have to. So either way, yeah if I don’t like it I can switch. But I’m worried that either will seem fine and It’s going to be months later when an issue or an advantage of one of the other would creep up. I want to get ahead of that.

What do you think the sweet spot is for tires?

Thanks. Those tires aren’t too old and have plenty of tread left. But they aren’t track tires, so definitely room for improvement there.

It sounds like “lifter tick” to me. I believe that the 626 has hydraulic lifters, and over time the get gummed up and oil isn’t able to get into them as well as before. It’s possible to remove and clean them but that involves removing the valve cover. I know a lot of people in the Miata community (which have similar engines) find that other than the sound there isn’t really a problem and just live with it. I’m less sure about that for the 626.

MY BRAND!

I have special eyes!

What power?
