In B4 the ban

It's a delicate balance of semen content, obviously.

Boof it...

I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I didn't share that somewhere!

Tapes can have long term issues in storage, as the tape reel winds will eventually start to bleed over magnetic signals from one wind to the next.

In analog world, they call it tape hiss. In digital world, with good error correction, it can last a long time, but is still ultimately prone to data corruption, eventually..

I recommend a video surveillance rated multi terabyte hard drive, they're designed to run 24/7. I have two 4TB Seagate Skyhawks.

People assume that because I'm into technology that I can unlock stolen phones or do XYZ whatever with their Facebook/Twitter/Instagram accounts or whatever. One, I don't touch stolen devices. Two, I don't have any accounts with any of those sort of services, and ain't about to start one to learn the ins and outs for other people.

I'd just take the whole PC outside and blow it out with an air compressor, or leaf blower, at least first. Some folks just use a can of compressed air. Wear a face mask if you do this.

If more cleaning or thermal paste is necessary, then at least my step #1 will start you off with much less cleaning required.

As far as disassembly, just take your time, locate all the screws and clips, and don't force anything.

If Mississippi fell into the Gulf of Mexico America Oil, nobody would miss us.

No, they were deported, obviously.

Looking past the days of old, while also dismissing modern artificial intelligence, the same techniques would still work if you just processed the thumbnails of the images, which for simplicity sake, might as well be a 1/8 scale image, if not actually even lower resolution.

JPEG works in 8x8 pixel blocks, and back in the day, most JPEG images weren't all that big. Each 8x8 pixel block (64 pixels per block) could easily and quickly be processed as if it were a single pixel.

So if you had a 1024x768 JPEG, then the fast scanning technique would only scan the 128x96 blocks, not necessary to process every single pixel.

Of course the results could never be perfectly accurate, but most images are unique enough that this would be more than sufficient for fast scanning.

Incorrect. You don't mirror flip it, you swap the images to convert between cross/parallel view.

Source: I wrote my own stereogram software, I know the difference.

Boo, these are cross-view, not parallel-view.

Everyone counting legs, nobody counting arms.

My lady had a limb for every day of the week!

Don't ask what the Friday limb was...

Fuck, I'm still in Mississippi ☹️

There are 3 (three) individual wires in that short wire harness, that had no Earthly business shorting out with each other.

It's not a single wire you see on the faulty component, it's the entire wire harness melted and all three wires shorted together.

Edit: This was fairly easy to access here, just above the starter, on a 2005 Hyundai Tucson 2.7L

Our model's CKPS is apparently entirely in control of the spark plug and fuel injector timing. Though obviously not all vehicles are designed that way.

When the sensor totally failed, there was no spark or fuel to any of the 6 cylinders. New sensor got it back running 👍

As far as the timing chain, that's on the other side of the engine on this model. The timing chain is what physically keeps the crankshaft in time with the valves, totally other part of the system, but still closely related.

Yes indeed! Ours is a 2005 Hyundai Tucson, 6 cylinder 2.7L, much props for recognizing the part without full context, but yes it's compatible with the Kia Sportage of about the same year range. 👍

By the way though, the CKPS only affects the electrical timing of the spark plugs and the fuel injectors. The timing chain affects the mechanical timing, separately, but in time nonetheless.

Sorry it might be difficult to explain, but the CKPS ain't got shit to do with an interference engine, that's all on the mechanical timing chain side. This was all on the electrical timing side from the faulty CKPS.

But the CKPS is absolutely important and necessary to detect and send the timing signals to the ECM to send the signals to the spark plugs and fuel injectors.

Bad CKPS means no spark and no fuel.

I couldn't find a proper service manual for the vehicle, until I stumbled into this awesome site!

Oh, we still got some odd codes that I know are gonna register anyways, like Power Steering Pump Pressure, but that works fine and hasn't ever leaked (yet...)
