What's growing on, Beehaw?
  • Well, I do have a couple stair rails with 550 cord strung between them to attempt to get them to climb. My wife is a bit afraid that the vines wont be able to support the weight of the squashes when they start coming in though.

  • Chicken wire fence worked well to keep the groundhog away from the squash. Squash is going nuts again, not sure how I'll keep it in the garden bed. Green beans are going well, replanted a bunch of carrots to replace the ones that died hopefully. I think that whst I thought were Brussel sprouts are actually cucumber, and what I thought was cucumber is Brussel sprouts so neither is where I wanted them. Raspberry bushes are also coming in very quickly, blueberry bushes are being very slow.

  • Windows 11 user has 30 years of 'irreplaceable photos and work' locked away in OneDrive - and Microsoft's silence is deafening
  • I have two drives in my tower that are just for my data. They are just folders of files. And there are two because I lost a chunk of data when the single drive it used to be died. Luckily most of it was also elsewhere, but I did think I had lost half of my wedding photos since I couldnt find the flash drive.

  • how's your week going, Beehaw
  • Just got the guy out who put the roof on my house out to see if he could find where a small leak had developed and reattach a piece of flashing. Flashing was easy, he popped a new nail in, I just dont have a ladder that would raeach that area. He couldn't find anything obvious for the leak though so he just hit all the likely places.

  • how's your week going, Beehaw
  • Found that there is probably a small leak in my roof somewhere, so that's fun. Not sure what else would be causing a wet spot on the exterior wall after last night's rain.

    On the bright side, the bit of rain over the weekend basically filled my 2 rain barrels so at least I know that works and collects a good amount of water. Somewhere around 80 to 90 gallons would be my guesstimate.

    Edit: Rained a bit more, definitely some sort of leak, but also rain barrels are nearly full now (I'd guess north of 100 gallons, 100% full should be 110 gallons)

  • Self made cargo cages for a bike
  • Also make sure you are well covered to avoid burns from weld spatter.

    And sunburn. First time I played around with welding I didn't get any weld splatter, but just about 30 seconds to a minute of welding in short sleeves was enough to sunburn (er, I guess weldburn?) my arms. That light's intense.

  • Self-Driving Tesla Fails School Bus Test, Hitting Child-Size Dummies… Meanwhile, Robo-Taxis Hit the Road in 2 Weeks.
  • My last employer was trying to get autonomous busses going. As far as I knew, when I left a few years ago the only place the busses were allowed to be autonomous was around the bus depot to hit all the maintenance, fueling, and cleaning stations on closed roads before parking itself (and I'm actually not 100% sure they would park themselves) at the end of the day. There was no timeline for on-route autonomy that I was aware of, but I was also not really involved so my info was 2nd hand.
