Have you tried using the steam mobile app? I think that has some advanced recovery options. Unsure if you can change the registered email that way, but might be worth a shot.

Diesels that run CNG/Prop run it WITH the Diesel as an additive/power boost/starter aid. It is not a replacement fuel.
Propane/CNG injection is done through the intake manifold, not the injectors/fuel system. A diesel cannot and will not run solely on sparkable fuel.
- Comment on ✅✅✅ 1 week ago:
Old mechanical injection diesels use the same principles of physics as the new ones do, just with electronic timing and fuel injection. I mean, the engine may on this stuff at least once. For some length of time. You can also do pretty much anything at least once. It’s the consequences that are the issue. You’re just doing the damage slower by diluting the fuel that doesn’t belong.

It even makes my regular glasses slip down all the time. Some frames/pairs are better than others, but it’s hard to escape.
- Comment on ✅✅✅ 1 week ago:
No they won’t, unless they’re built with a gasoline based engine, which almost no one orders, because the mileage to fuel ratio, cost, and power are terrible for OTR hauls.
Diesels will run on lots of less refined oils using only the heat of compression, like kerosene and fuel oil, as well as being able to run on their own oil (diesel runaway). However CNG, Propane, Gasoline, and other commonly sparked fuels will, in very short order, catastrophically destroy your diesel engine because they detonate at much lower compression than diesels require.
Furthermore, you’d ruin your high pressure fuel pump as gasoline doesn’t have the required lubricity. The injectors would probably be fine, but your pump and your cylinders/pistons/crank/rods/mains would be having extremely bad days.

- Comment on Is a monocle uncomfortable to wear? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve used jeweler’s eye loupes for extensive periods. They’re not terrible to hold in place unless you’re sweaty. If it’s too small it can become hard, but it generally rests in your eye well and is held in with friction rather than muscles. I do have a set that clip to my glasses now, which I need as I’ve gotten older. Those are easy.
People who only need correction in one eye get glasses with a prescription in one eye, and a plano lens in the other, which is just a clear lens with no correction or adjustments.

You can also see the individual white blood cells flowing through the vessels your eyes this way. It’s actually really neat. It’s called the Blue Field Entoptic Phenomenon.

Nah, this would have been ~30 years ago. Film and development was expensive so we didn’t just take pictures of everything. Certainly not something as inconsequential (at the time) as undershirts or underwear. I wish I had an example leftover.
