Found a solution, thanks everyone!

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Wait what was the solution?

YOUR ACCOUNT HAS BEEN SUSPENDED BECAUSE YOU DARED TO COMMENT WITHOUT PROVIDING THE EXACT SOLUTION FOR OP's PROBLEM (shame on you)

Ok, I'll open another thread, then.

REMOVED, DUPLICATE.

Ah, the Arch forum/stack experience. Along with

"Problem still exists like 2 years later."

"DON'T NECRO. CLOSED."

The new version of this is coming across a reddit post where it seems like OP replies “Thanks, that worked!” to “In protest of Reddit's API changes, I have removed my comment history. Fuck u/Spez”

  • After that make sure you note this gasket:
  • The replacement part is very hard to find but they carry it here: <404>
  • You'll find the torque spec here:

Bonus points if the only schematic you can find is a 256 resolution jpg on pinterest that leads to a wordpress site were a bot only posts random schematics to farm pinterest engagement.

what about when you stumble upon an old post of yours?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

I've had that happen before lol

I was like wait this sounds familiar

This has happened a few times were I find a solution on stack overflow, I go to upvote the answer and I get the error message “you can’t upvote your own post”

Yep, that was my answer to my own question from 5 years ago

you curse the past you for being so selfish

So long as you're willing to skip the first 8 minutes and play the next 20 seconds at 0.25 speed, where he very quickly glances over the problem, then goes on for another 10 minutes to talk about something unrelated in minute detail

Another variation of this is when you used Google, and the responses to the post say "Use Google", or links to lmgtfy.

Maybe AI can help here, since it is trained on stack overflow and co. ;)
