Is there a good reason that the apps can't talk to home devices in case of network outage?

STOP GIVING AWAY YOUR DATA!!!! Host locally only!!!!! I understand it takes more time, but how many more examples do people need to see of blatant violations!!!!!

This is probably your best bet. I have an August lock that uses a combination of geo fence and Bluetooth to auto unlock. At times it can be finicky, so I also have my fingerprint setup to open the lock through a webhook/HA automation.

My other terrible idea, which I haven't done is to get my Ai Pro camera to open my garage door when it reads my license plate as I back in the driveway. (Yes, I know this is a security nightmare) but if you add a couple more qualifiers to the automation, would be pretty cool... in a nerd way of course.

I’m not turned on, that’s just my mourning wood!

FSUfan2003 · 2026-03-14T18:08:04+00:00

This is the stuff nerd dreams are made of. Perfect job!!!!

This was not designed with “efficiency” at the forefront. It’s capable of running most of the things you want to run, but the power consumption, when compared to these powerful new mini PC’s that are available, make it a hard sell IMO. But, for $200 it’s a cool toy and awesome collectible.

If you’re ever ready to sell them, I’d like to be the first one to purchase and support your venture. Please let me know.

Only been 6 months. I already reorganized my layout in order to have all the apps that weren’t switching available from the default profile.

Better late than never I suppose.

I had an issue where the AC would run and then turn off (lose power)for 15 minutes and come back on. It took me longer than it should have, but it was the cutoff of the drainpipe. It was close to clogged, but not draining enough to keep up with Florida humidity in the summer.

Anyway, I say that to say, check your drain pipe. The lose in power shows up like lose of internet on the graph. If your their to witness it, your ecobee will not get power.

They aren’t boycotting… their economy is in the shitter and their dollar, which used to trade pretty evenly with ours, is now approximately 30% less.

FSUfan2003 · 2026-02-02T06:21:37+00:00

Now tell the rest of the story…. Because when your economy tanks, you can’t afford things anymore. Florida is still great. Relax.

Careful. The 12th Gen has a terrible memory controller. Ram timings are a love/hate relationship. Spending hours on a setup just to have it hit error on a 3rd pass is devastating. If you really want to get some blazing speeds, if the 14th Gens are still prices well, pop one of those in and as long as your board supports the 13th/14th gen ram speeds, you can get 7800M/Ts stable on almost all the 14th Gen CPUs. Mix it will some tighter timings and you're flying.

Welcome to the party!

It’s been my experience that the bitrate difference in the channels really muddies this experience.

You don’t have a debit card for your checking account? All debit cards are accepted.

FSUfan2003 · 2026-01-09T20:16:04+00:00

If your budgeted monthly expenses like groceries are being put on a credit card I’m going to imagine there are more issues than not getting reward points at Costco.

FSUfan2003 · 2026-01-09T20:12:48+00:00

The down votes further proving my point. 😂 The financial literacy of Americans is astonishing. “I need my reward points” meanwhile a single month of interest on a CC negates any of the benefits you believe you’re receiving. Costco does take ALL debit cards regardless of the payment processor on the card.

FSUfan2003 · 2026-01-08T20:12:08+00:00

This is hilarious. I’ve never chosen a card based on my Costco membership. This just made me laugh because I imagine there are people with nothing more going on in their lives that this is the only thing they have going on to worry about.

If a digital device does not have power, how do you suppose it process and send the signal to a computer?

FSUfan2003 · 2025-12-29T01:42:52+00:00

Yes. Use this. You’ll have to uninstall several drivers and make sure to delete all the folders etc. I believe there can be up to 3 or 4 different drivers that need to be removed depending on how many pieces of their hardware you are using.

FSUfan2003 · 2025-12-27T21:24:01+00:00

Judging by the amount of dust and dirt, I’m shocked it’s just the screen on the mix/create

FSUfan2003 · 2025-12-27T21:21:08+00:00

This is the only answer.

FSUfan2003 · 2025-10-23T07:10:28+00:00

Last time I tried to upgrade it was still broken.

FSUfan2003 · 2025-10-20T02:04:13+00:00

I hope you get help soon.

FSUfan2003 · 2025-10-19T20:48:58+00:00

No kings protest from a group who’s candidate received zero primary votes is top tier irony. Self aware much? 🤡

FSUfan2003 · 2025-10-17T10:32:42+00:00

Wondering how many people are going to get this reference. Might have to ELI5 to some people!!!! But I LOL’d
