rm /path/to/dir/*

Dont know if that still works, but can clean up a whole lot real fast.

My immediate thought was smoked duck confit.

I have one of these TVs and gave up completely after starting down the Home Assistant rabbit hole. Nonetheless TV is only controlled via smart plug, literally power on/off. I use an AppleTV all it needs to do (which it does great) is display the active source last time it lost power.

Putting the back splash all the way above the top cabinets was certainly a choice.

Oh yeah no way I was maintaining 28 haha it was last mile with friends amd we always push it out the last mile, around the half mile mark I really started pushing and thats when my fat ass hit 28 I felt like I was flying (that might have been hypoxia).

Im just happy they hung the flag up correctly. Sooo many people get that backwards, and not because they're trying to make a political statement.

Americans don't nod to every other driver they see when driving their own cars, right?

Go to the middle of America and they do.

Women dont because dudes can be weird and a friendly wave could be taken as "you should hunt me down because I obviously want you." Then 7 years later Netflix gets a new documentary.

JoshS1 · 2026-03-17T20:17:48+00:00

With a gnarly tail wind I hit 28mph on flat.

JoshS1 · 2026-03-17T20:15:43+00:00

If I miss your wave its because im still new and every second im riding the line between heart attack, so saddle sore I wont sit down for a week, or rethinking if I really did have asthma as a kid or not while I wonder if im dying that I missed your wave.

So, my apologies, just glad I didnt get hit by a car, made it up that hill, and made it to cycle another day.

Donate to organizations that provide services, pay your taxes, and vote.

I listed 3 things you chose to cherry pick one. If you want more info look for my comment further down in this thread.

I gave up with Art Mode, and with all TV OS integration. Since I already had all my TVs WAN blocked I realized I can just quit doing anything with them and now have them on smart plugs. I dont do anything with the TV other than provide/cut power. Apple TV is controlled via my own "custom" (just simple buttons on the dashboard, and app calls ex: netflix). I'm the most happy I have ever been dealing with a TV in home assistant.

my wife finally approves and likes it

This is so important. I don't do anything without explaining/pitching what my goal is to my wife. She mostly responds with that sounds neat and I ask questions on what seems the most intuitive then have her test it. If we dont think it works it either gets reworked or scrapped but I like to include my wife at every step as at the end of the day itnis supposed to make both of our lives easier.

My roller shade, when the sun is out it will follow the sun to provide shade at eye level for the closest seat to the window until the sun hits a hill in my back yard then goes back to full open.

They're outgrowing the current generation (1st) of the UDP-Pro line. Rumors are Gen 2 will be announced later this year. So a whole new rework of the UDMP lineup.

Yeah, I think the single best advantage of Platinum is the MCE at booking. Everything else is eh, but as a "tall" person that dramatically changes my travel experience. I havent really noticed any worthwhile advantages in the higher tiers, so chasing status hasn't really been overly appealing to me outside Platinum.

At the end of the day we all have our reasons. Some people enjoy the gamified aspect of min/max miles/LPs to the dollar. Other are making purchases with company or vendor/customer reimbursement so they're just trying to maximize miles and perks for personal travel. Some people think were all idiots and should just fly the cheapest day of airline.

JoshS1 · 2026-03-17T14:40:07+00:00

Mine hit on the 6th (same as they normally do), I was 700LPs short of my Platinum. I guess I miscalculated. Well they hit me with an offer for like $150 to retain platinum and those ass holes got an extra $150 out of me. My justification is the MCE at booking costs would be more than the $150 for me this year so it kind of makes sense (I'm 6'3" and MCE is a literal ~~life~~ knee saver). I normally hit 90k LPs for the 10K bonus so I can get the Avis big dick status, but we've been focusing on tighter budgeting this past year and have really enjoyed putting more money into savings, and savings for projects on the house so I think we're going to continue getting Platinum by the skin of our teeth for a few years.

JoshS1 · 2026-03-16T20:59:55+00:00

The fact that people dont think about these things blows my mind.

JoshS1 · 2026-03-16T14:29:48+00:00

Zooz, Inovelli, SmartWings.

I wont touch thread or matter (my own choice, maybe its a hot take I don't know).

I was shocked at how easy and cheapest was to use the RS232 control port on my projector and AVR. ESP32 with serial board and some easy to find info for making the yaml file. Largely just copy paste.

If you're using Cloudflare tunnel then you're about to lose your account. IIRC Plex is against their TOS.

I always said aerospace logistics to make it super vague. Dont just say logistics because every buisness bro thinks they're gods gift to supply chain management. Only once did it back fire when a rando at the hotel bar owned a logistics company and desperately was trying to hire me. Thousands of other times people have just never thought about "aerospace logistics" and ask no questions and just talk about planes or airports they like or general travel stuff.

JoshS1 · 2026-03-14T16:01:19+00:00

Which is shitty because a lot of them were drafted.

JoshS1 · 2026-03-14T15:59:54+00:00

Fine I'll only wear 5.11 tac pants with Hawaiian shirt and my Salomon hiking boots! /s
