I truly hope #peertube will have some sort of an extreme bug hunt because this year it has leaked worse than a sieve. One critical hole after another. It even has the questionable honor of being the first ever online service run by me that got broken into, although I managed to neutralize it before anything got done.

What's worse is that last time I checked, the Peertube instances that contact mine are often wildly out of date. I see people leaving comments on those about the installation being wide open.

In case you missed it, the last one patched a hole where anyone could pretty much do whatever to your playlists.

@GreenSkyOverMe It's just wussies to the left or right, or brave people forward to pee on a live circuit!

NBA Fastbreak's right orbit diverter came off. The e-clip that holds it had gotten loose. Now, everyone said I'd have to pull the right ramp which is quite a chore on this thing. I however noticed that with the little metal ramp thing from the shooter lane removed, I could access the spot quite easily. Turned an hour's job into 10 minute job. Work smart etc. #pinball #pinrepair #repair

This is Juju cola by Olvi, another local soda.

This is like a train wreck. A huge "SUGAR FREE" jumps out from the label, making me question my life choices for paying 4.70€ for this god awful piece of shit in an amusement park arcade's cafeteria.

It tastes artificial in so many ways. The horrible taste of sweeteners slaps my face like a piss soaked towel. Then comes the super artificial "cola" taste. It makes me wish I had ordered water.

There's absolutely zero redeeming qualities in this. It's an embodiment of everything that's wrong with today's sodas.

I'm fairly sure if I had pissed in a pint later, that would've been better than this.

Today's US import is a new one for me: Fanta Peach.

I think this might be one of the truest Fantas to what it claims to be. It smells of peaches and tastes like them too.

Come to think of it, after many recent disappointments, this might just be the best Fanta I've tasted, period.

A player reported Jaws not registering a drained ball. As it was first investigated, nothing out of ordinary was found and the game progressed after exiting the diagnostics. The problem repeated soon and this time I could see the issue: the ball through board has handy LEDs to show its status so I know the local controller is alive and well. But the game diagnostics shows now a single ball in the through. Curious.

Gently pushing the SPI bus connector made the game see all the balls again. I have a strong suspicion of cold solder in the pins. I'll take it apart when there's not that many people in the arcade.
