  • Well, mine was a lot newer when I owned it. When I bought this one it had 30k miles on it. It was completely stock with a worn out suspension. I actually stumbled on it while visiting a friend. Made a lowish ball offer which was rejected so I bailed and went home when our trip was over. Got a call about a week later accepting my offer.

    I had a ton of fun in this and my previous '92 Talon AWD. Going to the DSM shootouts, one year we got a tour of the DSM plant in Normal, IL… Good times!

    And back then, this car was an absolute beast on the street. Embarrassed a lot of people :)

    The car above ran the license plate “V8EATR” for a while and gained a pretty decent reputation locally.






  • If you haven’t sprained/hurt them and they’re sore, that sounds like they’re not happy about something. Overuse, or some gear issue (shoe), but generally inflamed.

    But, to just answer your question, run on trails not the road and you’ll strengthen all the lower leg muscles connected to your foot/ankle. Just remember to pick up your feet more than street running, or your gonna fall!

    P.S. you’re still probably going to fall :)













  • Ive spent 98% of my time here in Lemmy vs. 2% since last night. I’m not deleting my reddit account just yet, but, overall like what I am seeing here. I’m also just trying to figure everything out here.

    There are issues/worries about what happens when an instance goes away, where’s that content go? Duplicate/fragmented communities on multiple instances.

    I’m more worried about losing the CONTENT that we created on Reddit, etc as a historic/research tool if reddit fails completely. Lot of content with people helping others.

    I see/saw a lot of talk about wiping your data before leaving… I’m sure if that happened in larg volumes, they have backups of that content. No idea what legal ramifications there are with restoring them though.

    I’m in a wait and see, but w/o RIF I’m gonna be hard pressed to use reddit on my phone, and if old. Goes away that might end it for me.


  • I’m definitely not pointing fingers at you for making a duplicate (just FYI). Just an observation, and honestly should probably be handled at the Lemmy level, if that’s even possible. I haven’t been here 24h yet I just stumbled on there being multiple “motorcycle” communities when trying to subscribe to stuff.

    As for pic, not sure which picture you mean. If you’re referring to the screen shot, none of that is mine. It’s just.one of the communities.


  • I’m tracking my HVAC filter and rest it’s 90days with an NFC tag

    Loosely followed an online how-to to create a tracking chore list using NFC tags for my son’s allowance. Automations to nag him on trash night to gather/take out the trash.

    A simple Automation that turns on a fan in the basement when the outside temp is above out AC setting to help distribute cool basement air.

    Outside security lights on/off at dusk/dawn

    House auto arms/disarms (Alarmo) when everyone leaves or someone arrives (via life 360 integration)

    On trash day, after noon if my son scans (NFC) one of the trash cans, the garage door opens to let him in/put them away.

    My son gets a notification when he comes home from school if we got mail (aka the mailbox was opened that day)

    Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.


  • The problem I am seeing is there needs to be ONE motorcycles community, I see 3 right now. Too bad Lemmy can’t/doesn’t restrict duplicates. This will fragment the communities (unless I’m confused). New here as of last night and figuring this out but we should all try to be very careful about duplicating communities at least if I understand what I think I understand.

    Was going through my subs on Reddit to try to start subbing to the same ones here.

    I’m not knocking you, this is all new… But what makes sense?
