Out in the garage adjusting the height of the front suspension for the last time.
Finally got the ride I want but it was sitting a little low.





Buddy has been chasing birds today.
This one was a little too slow.

Under 8gb...w/o apps correct ? That's tiny. Have a good doner to experiment with if I make the time. Hardware isn't a prob, looks like the rest is cheap. VMWare is reachable. A good key for 11 LTSC might be the only challenge. Interesting for sure.

Yes, correct. It's stripped... down quite a ways, but it's perfect for that laptop. There is also an IoT version, which I believe would work well for smaller handheld devices.

Right after we moved in back in 2017, I had to replace the fart fan in both bathrooms. The Master bathroom needs a new one again. I bought actual Broan replacement stuff at HD last time too. I found an upgrade from 50cfm to 70cfm... I hope it gets the farts out faster.

My Wife's friend that owns this truck passed away this week. She was about 9 months younger than I am.

Sounds like you need a whole house fan in there.

LOL... not a bad idea. I have been thinking about doing one of those attic fans for the summer. Switching to ridge vents definitely helped.

Of course a little direction prob couldn't hurt..something subtle.
