    Youtube has allowed this to happen. Now anyone can use AI to create a video on any subject and post to the internet. Throw up enough junk videos and you start making revenue. Maybe I should give it a shot since I'm semi retired. ;-)

    Newer 0w20 PCMOs dropping Dexos 1 Gen 3 approvals

    This. API has folded and will allow changes to base oil and additive packages without testing to keep the oil flowing to the consumers. GM has not folded to the pressure (yet). My thoughts? In the near future, oils that don't keep the DEXOS label might not protect your machinery as well as...

    Switched to CachyOS from Fedora, wow!

    Currently running Cashy, Fedora and good old Debian on different SSDs trying to figure out what I will run for the next year or so. Cashy is fun but very bleeding edge.
