All BMW Internal Combustion Motos Are Currently "Do Not Sell" - Adventure Rider

All BMW motorcycle dealer sales stopped except for their EV:

Following a recent quality analysis, BMW is pursuing measures to further evaluate the material used in a component of its motorcycle evaporative system, which may not have been produced to material specifications. As a result, BMW of North America is issuing a temporary, voluntary stop sale for all new and pre-owned BMW motorcycle models in dealer inventory, except for the CE 04.

    Weather is promising around here. Hopefully it's good near you.

  • DE:MD was great, I really hoped for them to finish the story. With all the horse-trading of the companies and IP, who knows if we'll ever see one.

  • I had no idea. I'm still on 7.0.x, I didn't even realize they were sold. It only has permissions for media and files.

  • My OnePlus 6t swelled and split in a year. OnePlus said it was unrepairable (it still worked) and offered me $50 toward an upgrade.

    Replaced it with a Pixel.

    Cave Mountain Music Festival at Windham Mountain canceled

    No festival at Windham this fall due to new ownership and on-going construction.

  • I don't back up anything I can rebuild. I have multiple half-assed methods in use together for the rest of it:

    • Backups daily of homedirs on desktops and laptops using Borg and Vorta to external usb drives. These devices get rotated out annually. I used to run 2-disk RAID1 and when I rotated the disks out, split them and sent them to family but now I'm taking my chances on having them local and putting them in a fireproof box.
    • Code repos are synced to github or srht.
    • Monthly backups of homedirs are sent via borg to rsync.net.
    • Desktop and laptop homedirs get periodic (roughly monthly) burns to Dual-Layer BDRs which I put in the fireproof box and sometimes hand off to family.

  • I've been in the weird space of on-prem "cloud" infrastructure (mostly kubernetes) for the last seven years but I've been doing infra, middleware, and devops for more than twenty years and have my own way of working that's nearly GUI-free.

    Tools I use every single day:

    Less often but very useful:

    • socat a swiss army knife for sockets.
    • ansible
    • terraform

    Languages, because I write my own tools:

    • Go, a lot of it and I still don't like it.
    • Python, and I tolerate it (Perl is still better for getting things done but lost mind share).
    • Rust, and I like it.
    • Elixir, and I love it.
    • Guile and Janet when nobody's looking and I don't have to share (though the Nix folks don't mind me...).
