My Volkswagen 2.4L AAB engine makes this weird clanging noise, especially when cold. I think it gets a bit better when the engine has warmed up.
Any idea what's wrong with it?

It's time to rename the site. One of the main reasons is that there seem to be more and more services named "Aava" out there.
I'm thinking of renaming the site to "minisome": miniature social media. Because that's what this site is. It's also sort of like "awesome".

Yah maybe something like that to make replies easier to track.

Thanks, mate. I've been a bit busy lately, partially because I'm also starting to make my own 2D platformer game. You mean this site should have notifications?

” Manuli: Instead of displaying all of the latest posts across the site, when logged in it should display the latest posts only from tribes you've joined. Does it not work?”

I think it may yes. Perhaps have some sort of feature to know if a person has replied. Still though great site.

The smartest individuals reject society and technology.
You might think the smartest ones adapt to the system and succeed in it. It's one type of intelligence, but true pioneers leave a broken system instead of keeping it alive for personal gain.

Every day I'm wondering if I should drop out from university and live in a tent. No job, no Internet connection, no smartphone. There's something about modern society that makes me feel sick, like I was in an invisible prison, separated from real life. Everything feels like a distraction. You know what I mean?

We're already nearing a point in time where tech companies like Microsoft, Google, meta etc. could take total control of humanity. They have so much money and influence that they're basically politicians that weren't elected democratically.
And we let this happen.

” test: I miss the times when technological innovations didn't exist to abuse the user. People say the smartphone and AI are "just tools" but I don't remember a hammer ever sharing my private data with the government.”

There are a lot of psychos in charge of tech nowadays half of these large companies are basically just fronts for intelligence agencies it is like a tyrants dream but again the general populace are not guilt free they have all the information to know what is bad and what is good and they choose the evil tech for it's convenience.

Just under three weeks on Artix had a few issues with compatibility with games and apps that rely on systemd but nothing that wasn't fixable today however it completely shit the bed never seen anything like it, swapped to CachyOS lol I figured for an Nvidia gaming PC Cachy is the practical choice I just wanna play games. Still running a non systemd OS on my laptop however, Void Linux it is a great OS.

Sounds like a good idea, it would be cool for more people to join. Maybe also put an ad on 4chan or something. I found this site from a /g/ thread.
