I had to modify the wiring in a - fairly new - tractor once.
I opened up an inspection panel and found a pair of pliers in there, used them to fix the wiring and took them out.
I gained a tool and fixed an annoying rattle too.
If you’re not usng it for your own purposes, I doubt you’ll do what a bunch of strangers on Lemmy will tell you to do.
It needs to be running, either in your possession, or someone else’s, so sell it and make some profit from the recent price rises. Put a minimum sell price on ebay and it’ll go eventually.
Fuuuukkkk…
Longer uptime than you’d been alive!
I just hope you’ve got backups 🙂
Seriously though, we found an old Dell server at work that hadn’t been rebooted for years.
We knew that it was fine whilst it was running, but the stress of a reboot would finish it off with all those POST fan speed tests, RAID array tests, etc.
We took as much data off it that we thought might be relevant and rebooted it.
1 drive failed immediately. 1 fan must’ve had all the dust as that blew out a cloud during the fullspeed test.
A few days later more drives started failing and it just gradually died.
It was actually a sad day when we powered it off for the last time. 🥲
I’ve not used Facebook in years.
Best way to avoid the ads and scams feeding that corp.
