I guess I'm just old enough to be incredibly paranoid. It's all personal preference, and this is how I prefer to operate.

The 4 days I just spent in Las Vegas? Defcon. https://www.defcon.org/html/defcon-23/dc-23-index.html

Don't be surprised when your work proxy blocks that URL.

Huh. Me too. None of my accounts are linked. Everywhere I go now, it seems, people want me to just use Facebook credentials. F## that. I only haz a Facebook account to blast updates of my awesomeness to people like my mom, my extended family, and Aidan. Not so I can create one giant interconnected web of security fail.

Edit: every password I use is unique.

I don't link my Facebook account. F that. I don't even use Facebook much, occasionally to laugh at ricers, or interact with people I who I dont want to have my phone number. I occasionally use google sign ins because I've dealt with their oauth system as a developer, and it's the ****.

I usually forget about midway through whether I'm reading the random topics thread, G's build, or any of Aidan's threads.

I looked at my car yesterday, does that count?

Hopefully I'll get some time to poke at it tonight. No comments about my screenshots in post #1842? I have no idea what those tables and functions do, would they prevent me from starting?

God damn I was worried about this, tuning from a no-start condition is probably the absolute worst thing I could have possibly imagined, and here it is!

<p>I don't see why not. What firmware version were you using before?</p><p>There is a warning on msextra:</p><p>

I was on 1.2.4 IIRC

Pay attention to WHAT?! Where the **** did you see that? This is why I ******* hate the megasquirt. Its the PERFECT example of how NOT to document a project

Yeah man, I feelz the feelz. MS documentation is becoming borderline hopeless with newer and newer revisions.

But at least you got Rev to help you. DIY was beyond terrible customer service when I was looking for answers. I will never buy another unit directly from them as long as I live.

I like the hardware, its the documentation that drives me up the ******* wall.

I guess I could roll back to 1.2.x and reload that MSQ and see if it starts, then step incrementally 1.2.x -> 1.3.x -> 1.4.x and check between flashes that it actually starts? Not sure if that's a waste of time or not.

I dunno, sounds like a giant waste of time. But then so is reading the documentation.

Wish I could halp, but I am firmware dumb :(

<p>It's worth a go, but it's also worth asking Rev if he has a map for the latest 1.4 code you could use.</p><p>Importing your VE &amp; Ignition table afterwards is a simple copy &amp; paste job.</p>

I'll play with it tonight and we'll see what's up. I need to relax and go through my settings, step by step by step and confirm there is no fuckery. If I end up being completely over my head I'll PM Rev for a map but first I want to see if I can work this out for myself, I don't want to pester Rev if I don't have to. Plus, if his facebook is to be believed, I'll be once again interrupting his vacation.

<p>I spend time on the msextra boards, and play with the beta firmware on occasion. Its definitely not plug n play.</p><p>Its pretty much a 2 man show I think though, and I don't even think it is their main job. Documentation is not high on their priority list.</p><p>I don't even care about the bad instructions. The fact that they rescanned their schematic with a potato sideways gives me an aneurysm&nbsp;every time I try and read them.</p>
