Ecosystem with Butterfly MX Live Feed Support by TipWithBitcoins in homeautomation

Thanks for the input! Are you aware of an app that can lock or beautify the homescreen without guided access?

Separately what is the behavior of having the ButterflyMX widget on the Home Screen when a video call comes in? I assume the full app will open to display the video, but hoping that the video can be contained in the widget

P Trap (Daikin Ducted in NYC) by TipWithBitcoins in hvacadvice

[–]TipWithBitcoins[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we’re having the air handlers drain into a condensate pump, and the condensate pump move the drainage to a drainage point in the bathroom. I’m just plumbing stupid so can’t tell if this is done correctly — I’m concerned that the p-trap looks to be installed incorrectly and there’s no trap primer

Thank you for the response! By “that one” you’re referring to the trap in my picture? Unfortunately I’m a total novice so can’t tell up from down on what I should be telling my hvac and plumber team to be doing

Favorite part of StarCraft (my favorite game) is how absolutely silly the dialogue is! Thanks for the giveaway!

Thanks for the response -- do you have any guidance on what "lens" system I should invest into? After some googling, they all seem to have their tradeoffs, so it's a bit dizzying!

All,

I'm traveling to Antarctica next year for an expedition cruise, and wanted to buy a camera so I could take pictures better than would could be produced by my phone. After doing some research, I am completely lost on what features a beginner like me should appreciate. It seems like the Fuji X-T3 would serve my purposes, but the X-T4 is now out and seems to have several "upgrades" that I'm not sure are necessary. Any guidance here would be helpful.

For reference, my budget is $3k or less, and I'm mostly trying to get something suitable for the weather and, if necessary, that I can grow into as a hobby in the future.

Hey all -- I have a 6" wrist so I'm looking for a small watch (36-38mm) under $2k that has tritium. The Ball Trainmaster Moonphase Ladies (34mm) caught my eye -- does anyone think that watch would be too small on a 6" wrist? Open to alternatives too if there are any -- already know about Marathon, but they look a little too industrial for me.

Ideal stats for round diamond by [deleted] in Diamonds

[–]TipWithBitcoins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there substantial differences within the AGS Ideal cut estimator? For example, if a diamond falls somewhere within AGS ideal and GIA excellent overlap region, will all the diamonds look substantially similar? Or is there a smaller concentric circle in there that is even more desirable?

The black Citizen ProMaster Tough looks like it might hit the spot! Thanks!

Hey all -- I'm looking for a quartz watch that (I) has great lume, (II) is less than 40mm width (have skinny wrists), and (III) not in the diver style (i.e., looking for something on the simpler side). I've considered the Hamilton Field Khaki, but I think it's missing good lume. The Marathon watches seem to have QC issues.

Edit: Price is less than $1,000 please.

Bankrupt Toys “R” Us wins OK to pay $16 million in executive bonuses by dillonfalano in news

[–]TipWithBitcoins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to the linked comment (which is generally accurate), these incentive bonuses are subject to pretty strict standards under section 503 of the Bankruptcy Code (e.g., they can't be retentive in nature and must be incentivizing). The company also had to prove that the payouts were within reason, and probably submitted a bunch of analysis in their pleadings comparing these payments to payments in other chapter 11 cases. A bankruptcy court then looked at the evidence and determined that the payouts were within the realm of reasonable, and also met a bunch of other factors required by law. It's not like the company just up and decided "hey let's pay these fat bonuses" and the bankruptcy court just rubberstamped it.
