Thread 🧵

So yesterday I was out doing what I can’t talk about right now, and my car started making knocking noises (like a lawn mower), as I was trying to get to a shop, my engine began to limit the power to it. So I limped it to the shop. Glad I made it, just as I got there it shut off.

Engine light was blinking and oil light came on. 😒 It was 2 quarts of oil low somehow, so not sure what is going on.

beardedtechguy,

They checked the engine codes and the two that popped coencided with current issues that 2017-2021 Tucsons (mine is a 2020) have that deal with engine baring rods and the engine burning oil. There is even a class action lawsuit.

Now I have to get the car towed to Hyundai to being the diagnostic process to see if I can still get manufacturer warranty on it. I am still under 100,000 miles. Also going to look into that lawsuit.

So yeah, yesterday was a crap shoot.

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Disaster indeed. The engine is blown. Luckily the manufacturer’s warranty is covering the work! Whew… Hyundai has 10…10 motor’s currently needing replaced with the same issue.

I am looking at about 1 week for Hyundai to even get to my car and another 8 weeks total to get a new engine in and completed.

Good morning and happy Thursday fellow fedizens of the .

Let’s get this day kicked off and meet for our chat and see what we all have planned today.

My day is kicking off with a bang and not a good one. Have to get my car towed to Hyundai (more on that in next post). Maybe I’ll get to work today 🤷🏻‍♂️. Rest of the day im not sure.

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Yeah it doesn’t sound good so far.

Hey @cliffwade @beardedtechguy do you know what kind of self hosting you want to move all things tech to? Is it just the mastodon instance or all the other components like the blog too?

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cjerrington @cliffwade We have the blog and wiki hosted on DO. We would be opposed to host the mastodon instance there also. Just want to make sure we get the most bang for buck.

Thread 🧵

@beardedtechguy and myself are looking for someone to help us grow in every way possible. This includes our blog, our instance, our wiki, our Discord and our community in general.

We're looking for someone that is super active here on Mastodon and will continue to do so going forward.

We're looking for someone that is willing to talk about the instance, advertise the instance and recruit for the instance if possible. (cont...)

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Let me add to this:
I’d like to add to this, and find someone to join me as part of the Infrastructure team and help move our instance to be self hosted and away from Mastohost.

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade @armerpunkt Sorry, yesterday was one hell of a day. But as Cliff mentioned, we just want to self host to have better control of the features. I’d like to have another person on hand that can help when I’m not available.

We have looked at hetzner, but we have our other properties on DO.

@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

Today was my first official pay-day as a full-time employee instead of a contractor that I've been for over 8 1/2 years.

It's so nice to get a real paycheck with taxes taken out, benefits taken out and all of that.

Sucks that the government takes so much damn money, but it's going to be much nicer come tax time when I have to file!

@cliffwade Yeah they sure do, but like you said, come tax time, it pays off.

Happy for you.

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade How did you fill out your form? I always fill out mine as single, 0 dependents even though I have kids. They take out more of check but come tax time, you get more back.

@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Good!

Happy Wednesday to all of fedizens in the today!

Let's talk about what our plans are for the day today or what we've already accomplished.

For me, it's been work stuff since early this morning. Doing some database stuff for Nova that I can't give details about yet publicly.

Tonight is just Fortnite with friends, and I might jump into the new Diablo IV season that started yesterday.

@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

Might be some changes coming soon.

Can’t talk about it at this time but will when the time comes.

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Yep. Now it’s your turn to wait until suspense like I had to. 😜

Looks like I’ll be moving to the second floor of our building and to a smaller office, but honestly my current one is mostly wasted space anyway.

@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@heyfluxay Good luck on the moving. I hate moving. And…congrats?!

This has to be the most unhinged start to a keynote that I have ever seen in my life.
