@matigo I surely hope so. There will be a yearly checkup1 in May, it might cause some extra costs. Until then I do hope that nothing breaks during the winter months.

Not inspection, that will happen later.
Phew. Didn't cost as much as we were afraid of. Only ~250€, of which 80€ was tire change and storage fee1.
There was a faulty sensor that reported the cooling system temperature to be a constant –40°C, which in turn fed too much fuel and too little air when the engine was started.

In Finland one needs to use "winter tires" during the winter months and we have studded winter tires which are not allowed to be used during the summer months.
Just finished the first season of Le Bureau des Legendes, [imdb.com] a French spy/intelligence series. It is well done and it is refreshing to watch something non-American (and in our case, non-Nordic) TV.
@streakmachine We will see. The first available time was on November 17 (because of the tire change season), so now the car will be standing still for 3 weeks.
Dang it, I jinxed it. I wished we would have no car troubles until next Spring, but now the start engine is acting up. It doesn’t seem to be able to inject enough fuel to the engine and thus the car requires a little help with the gas pedal to get it going. Of course that happened after the repair shop had closed for this week. I guess I will call them on Monday morning.
@peemee Hah! Never seen that before. It is darn well done, based on a quick look. 😆

@matigo Same here. I do hope that I can continue taking 15–30 minutes or an hour here and there and work on things I have planned to do for a while1. Unfortunately I haven’t had any chances to do that lately.
Some of them have been waiting for the opportunity for 8 years!
@matigo It is great that I happened to have some spare time to even do that small update. I have plenty of plans for my website but I have no time complete any of them. 🤷♂
Updated the software projects page [pekonen.cc] of my website to include the SDK project I worked on last year as well as my current project. Also, there is now a small tweak how I display the inactive projects.
