  • In some ways yes and in some ways no.

    Data and information are now more widely available than ever. Of course, misinformation is also more widely available than ever.

    The new web feels devoid of passion/ humanity. Gone are the days of self funded sites that existed “just because”. Now everything has to generate revenue to stay afloat. I do miss the days where it felt special to be on the Internet, whether you were hosting content or observing it.







  • It’s a good idea to do that where you can, but some engines mount their oil filters sideways or even upside down.

    In these cases, some cars have a “clear flood” mode that will let you crank the engine without it starting. You can use this to pump oil though the engine for 5-10s and help prime your oil filter. For instance on Subarus you can hold the accelerator to the floor while you try to start it to engage this mode.
