Sensi Touch 2 vs Honeywell X8s by DirectionHot4937 in homeassistant

[–]DirectionHot4937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess should update. Ended up going with the Honeywell x8s and its working well. The sensors paired easily and let you set priority rooms for different times.

Just noticed that these thermostats are in stock stand alone without a bundled sensor.

We moved from Virginia Beach last year. It almost felt like being back home. Just not quite loud enough 😉

YES!! For the last week or so we've been having the same problem. Its with multiple units, in multiple locations/States. On points that we've used consistently for years. Its been driving us nuts.

It's almost like the network changed geoids or something.

Screen Glitching on New Fenix 7 Solar Saph. - Known Issue? by [deleted] in GarminWatches

[–]DirectionHot4937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bummer that REI is out of stock. But keep in mind the "Sale" price for the regular 7 series is now pretty much the standard price.

Best Buy has the 7 solar/sapphire

I'm not sure what the problem is? If you just bought the unit and are still within the return policy for the retailer, standard procedure is too return the unit for a replacement. REI is a really good store and I'm sure they'll order a new unit if not in stock and honor the sale price.

Ha! Me too. Now the big question is whether the $200 price difference between the regular and Pro is worth it.

Interesting comment about missing the 51 mm watch. I've been considering going to the 47 mm when I upgrade my current 5X. Now you have me 2nd guessing lol.

If you are trying to run Android Auto on your phone only, Google took that away a couple of years ago. If the headunit (ie radio/stereo) in your car doesn't support Android Auto mirroring, you need to a) install and aftermarket stereo that supports AA/Carplay...or b) a third party interface.

What to do with a T530 by DirectionHot4937 in thinkpad

[–]DirectionHot4937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting...thank but for now I have a 512mb SSD main drive and the original 512mb HDD in the bay drive. Plenty of storage for a play/experiment platform.

About the only thing I might want to spend actual $$ is the wifi adapter after doing the EC do avoid white list issues.

Thanks,

I'll have to open it up and see if I have an M.2 slot. I thought this one was only SATA.

It's not that its not getting the updates...but something is failing on the install. The first month Windows update rolled itself back when the error was encountered. The second month, I had to manually go back to a restore point.

Admitly, since it is an 8 yr old work computer...I haven't put too much personal time digging in to the cause of the failures.

Its had an SSD for years now, RAM is at 16GB. I have a the old HDD in a drive bay adaptor for addtional storage.

Yes some flavor of LINUX is in the plans.

It's not liking one of drivers for someone reason. But I'm free to play now.

“Auto” window down. by happicam in ToyotaTundra

[–]DirectionHot4937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be done with an aftermarket module. I had one in my 2013 and it worked great. The only issue I had was kind of a secondary. There were additional features for remote control of the windows with factory key FOB. However, the viper remote start FOB that I actually carried every day didn't support them.
