It’s bike maintenance day! 😺🏍🔧

Honestly this is the first time I’ve done more involved jobs like taking apart my calipers and rebuilding them. I have the typical stock toolkit that fits under the seat and I just don’t carry enough repair stuff with me, nor do I want to. I’m finally somewhere that has extra tools I can use. I’d love to carry a breaker bar, a torque wrench and full size sockets to make things easier, but I chose the badminton, book and skincare life 😹

I forgot how much I missed wrenching. I usually just pay for oil changes on the road because I don’t have a drain pan, nor do I want to deal with the logistics of how to drain the old oil or what contraption I can make to catch it blah blah blah.

So I’m happy to be working on my own bike. She is my machine. Don’t be fooled, I learned and am STILL learning how to do this stuff from YouTube University and sometimes I ask mechanics a bunch of questions before I dive in.

If I can can do it, you can do it too.

also the only person that came to help troy after he got knocked out was lint. out of the entire cloudspire team, referees, and crowds full of fans, the only person that made sure he was okay after he was run over by his own sled and dragged down a slope covered in obstacles was lint. smiles.

My brain, 24/7:

AO3 userscript: Only show primary pairing (automatically, no config needed!)

This userscript automatically hides fics where the primary pairing is not the first listed tag.

Neeve's script does the same thing, except it needed to be manually edited to make it work. I made a few edits to make it automatic if you are on a ship tag page, no code editing needed.

[INSTALL HERE] (Requires Tampermonkey or any other userscript manager)

Other features (needs manual configuration):

Add more than one preferred pairing

Show works where pairings are in the first X number of tags

On a character tag page, automatically show works that have the character in the first five tags (experimental)

Add more than one preferred character

Show works where characters are in the first X number of tags

Happy reading!

Just a heads up, if you're sick of dashboard-unfucker being broken, someone made a new script to restore the old tumblr interface.

Should work about the same.

Two Useful Userscripts for AO3

For a long time, I’ve thought it would be nice to have two “features” on AO3 (which AO3 has good reason not to add themselves):

A way to add formatting buttons to the comment box (mostly on mobile, where typing HTML is very awkward)

Some way to “take notes” on a fic/chapter as I’m reading, so I don’t constantly forget things I want to comment on 😂 (just ask @persevereforahappyending)

Writing both of these things are (in theory) within the outer edges of my capabilities, but in practice they’d require so much brushing up and research that they’d be 20+ hour projects each, not an effective use of my limited time 😭 (I did eventually write myself a little HTML tags helper Shortcut a couple years ago that made inserting tags on my phone…less painful…but not painless enough that I’d even use it every time.)

Eventually I remembered userscripts, and I found a "floating comment box" script…that I couldn’t get to even load…and gave up and moved on.

Today, while searching for something else, I discovered a pair of scripts from the same person that added both of these features and worked (to the extent they actually loaded; I’ve yet to submit any comments using them) not only on desktop (Safari with the open-source userscripts extension) and on my phone (with the same combo)!

Obligatory Warning

Userscripts are third-party JavaScripts that have access to anything on a given web page, can load other JavaScripts, steal your information, and so forth. Never install a userscript you don’t trust.

I Understand the Danger; Tell Me What Userscripts You Found!

First, make sure you have a “userscript manager” extension installed in your browser.

The original userscript extension, Greasemonkey, is available for Firefox and derivatives.

Tampermonkey is available for multiple browsers on multiple desktop and mobiles OSes.

userscripts is available for Safari on Mac and iOS.

There are others, too.

After you’ve installed your userscript manager extension, hop on over to greasyfork.org and add these scripts:

AO3: Comment Formatting and Preview

AO3: Sticky Comment Box

Both by escctrl, who has an extensive list of other AO3 scripts you might like (that tag reordering script also caught my eye!).

My JavaScript knowledge is both weak and rusty, but nothing in these two scripts seemed untoward.

I’m not sure how well the floating comment box will end up working on the small screen of the phone—between it and the keyboard it obscures 90% of the screen—but it still might be useful enough.

Happy commenting on all your favorite fics!

Oil change DONE ✅

Let’s do a headlight replacement!

Goodbye stock yellow lights which provide NO illumination at night, and hello nice bright white illuminance 👀 These are so bright, I feel like I can see into the future 😹

I’ve never swapped headlights on this bike myself before, but I have done it on my Ninja 300. I just started unscrewing stuff and poking things 🤷‍♀️

If I can figure it out, so can you 💪

Does anyone know how to make a Script (tampermonkey / greasemonkey javascript) stay put when the page soft refreshes? I've been playing around with javascript to add some more icons back but every time you click to a new page they disappear until you do a full reload.

Either way I can (sort of) bring them back with a javascript code, but I need to know how to make them /stay/
