I fixed the hydropneumatic system. One of the contacts in the pressure switch had accumulated sulphated, after cleaning it up a bit with sandpaper it was able to close the circuit again. Good thing I happened to have a multimeter at hand and that that was it, I was mentally preparing in case I had to disassemble the whole thing. Another easy possibility were loose cables inside the pressure switch, less easy possibilities were a clogged pipe between the switch or a damaged level control, if the problem had been in the motor I likely wouldn't have been able to get it repaired.
One annoying thing about figuring out how to repair things is how regionalized it is, what's common here may be a rarity elsewhere, and they'll often be called completely different things (commonly based on slang or whatever was the first company to sell some part) so looking up stuff is way harder than it needs to be.
Anyhows, I was looking at that war where neither side knew they were at war until decades later, IIRC it was between Ecuador and France, I couldn't find it but I learned something like that isn't that uncommon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_extended_by_diplomatic_irregularity
By doing it, even in the moments where you absolutely just hate it. No matter what reasoning your mind comes up with for that (and there will be a lot of that).

Since I started this job I took it for granted that it wouldn't last forever so I've tried to make the most of it, although it seems like it's going to last a while anyways.
What I expected: explanation on what Hololive is
What I got: that, for about 30 seconds, followed by a detailed rundown of vtuber memes and other random shit involving female voices speaking in Japanese
I've been thinking about animated series lately. I watch some cartoons from time to time. Primarily in the form of animated films, and not often.
In all honesty, modern Western animation sensibilities are not something I approve of, but there is a lot of older stuff I think is worth watching. I think I should give that a serious shot sometime.
Writing this up I remembered that the main reason there isn't really an established cartoon culture is that it's seen as a really juvenile interest, more than a lot of other things.
Shows that look like a cross between tumblr (on a bad day) and Korean doodles (on a half-decent one). Basically, shows that look like they are all a crossover with Adventure Time, Teen Titans Go, and Steven Universe.
Example; here are three shows that are not what I just mentioned, but essentially look just like them.
The alternative is usually things with thin-lines that just look intensely deranged like My Little Pony: Pony Life.
The only things that seem to attempt to emulate life/human proportions seem to be French (ZAG), Italian (RAI), or out of Warner Bros. direct-to-streaming movies.
Hey gacek, I heard Duda won himself another term?
Seems that mail-in voting thing didn't happen much then?
What will the Duda's Second Term Spurdo meme video be like?
I can let you know if folks go to courts, but at this point it doesn't seem to be of matter.
I recently had to read through a bunch of old e-mails in the account I registered here and elsewhere with, which were automatic update type "somebody PM-ed you" and "somebody posted in this thread" things. It was so weird to go backward through the last couple of months.
Besides that, I've been trying to make the best out of it, continuing to improve at the things I do.
Me, I'm glad I can keep NEETing while still being employed.
Besides that, I think I've been making good use of my time recently, unlike the other times I've posted about it here, yet I still feel I could be doing more somehow. Hmmm...
I tried to remove the scratches from my phone's camera using both toothpaste and then alcohol, I figured since it's almost uselessly scratched there was no point in worrying about removing the protective layer. Unfortunately after applying the toothpaste the pictures became noticeably more blurry. I did it with cotton per internet instructions, but perhaps using microfiber cloth from the get-go would've given better results.
I'd say this past week has been a mix for me, and I think that I could be doing things better in some respects going forward but I'm getting in my own way slightly by appealing to emotion.
Ah, oops.
Is there a way to fix that?
