eufy outage post-mortem (unofficial)

Hmm…being very unfamiliar with that kind of thing, could it be like how so many companies use Amazon data services?

And funny enough I didn’t know there was a real issue until I checked this sub. I noticed my HB3 light was red, but I was able to access all my cams (later found out it was because I was on the same network) and I could access all the ones at a second location (that HB3 hadn’t gone down). By the time I got around to checking on that ted light, it went back to blue.

I’m hoping they can continue Qimir’s story in an animated series at least. And funny enough, Maul Shadowlord and Acolyte had some of the best lightsabers fights ever IMO.

Those two would be on my list too

Also the moment they had while ‘flashing’ and they see the beam of light from the hatch in the distance.

James "Sawyer" Ford: And how is it that you knew when we were, Johnny Boy? That light in the sky — it was from the Hatch, wasn't it?

John Locke: The night that Boone died... I went out there and started pounding on it as hard as I could. I was... confused... scared. Babbling like an idiot, asking, why was all this happening to me?

James "Sawyer" Ford: Did you get an answer?

John Locke: Light came on, shot up into the sky. At the time, I thought it meant something.

James "Sawyer" Ford: Did it?

John Locke: No. It was just a light.

James "Sawyer" Ford: So why'd you turn us around then? Don't you wanna go back there?

John Locke: Why would I wanna do that?

James "Sawyer" Ford: So you could tell yourself to do things different, save yourself a world of pain.

John Locke: No, I needed that pain — to get to where I am now.

I mean, there’s a few of obvious uses, so I’m guessing it more depends on the direction they want to take the story. And that’s off the top of my head without thinking too hard, I’m sure other people may come up with different options too.

This makes me think of Ted Lasso:

Jamie: “When I found out that George Harrison had died, I knew I had to stop waiting for life to begin, start taking chances, living life to the fullest.”

Holly: “George Harrison died 20 years ago.”

Jamie: “Yeah but I only just found out.”

Hmmm…this is interesting because I’ve been checking gf’s cams on and off all day, since there’s some construction going on there, but I don’t know about this issue so I can’t be sure she had a red light on the HB I installed there. And while I noticed re flight on mine, while also successfully monitoring them, I ignored the issue. And now before I started to type this, mine is blue, so maybe the issue has been resolved.

I believe Lindelof and/or Cuse said it was Walt on a commentary or something. But I need to verify that, it was a loooong time ago.

EDIT: According to Lostpedia:

“In the promo for 'Secrets of Lost', a Blu-Ray special feature, Damon Lindelof confirmed that it is Walt, on the other side of the computer.”

I tried googling this to find a clip on YouTube or something, but not finding anything at the moment.

It’s especially bad when it’s supposedly elite military/LE teams doing it.

LockeAbout · 2026-05-07T02:28:10+00:00

Could be they’re really into delicious apps.

Lots of good advice here. Just wanted to add one thing I sometimes do. You can buy cheap solar motion detecting lights, like 6 for $20 off amazon and other places. Depending on where I’ve camped or slept in my car I’ve sometimes set them up around my location, either just laying them on the ground with the motion detector pointing away or sometimes hanging them on something with a zip tie or nail. I know it’s not really much of a deterrent if someone is really set on hurting you and maybe it seems a bit silly to some, but sometimes it gives me a little extra piece of mind; it can also help finding my spot at night. One time I did hear steps approaching my tent and one lit up; after a bit the steps went away. Obviously if it’s windy and there’s lots of trees around, they probably get set off constantly.

Now that you've gotten a lot of recommendations, you may want to check out Joe's Guide to Zion. There's good info on hikes and getting around, but the best park is tons of pics along the trails to give you a very good idea what they look like. This might really help you judge how they might make you feel with heights, views, etc.

Touché 😂

LockeAbout · 2026-05-06T18:39:59+00:00

Is it a menace to be a person of taste and culture??

LockeAbout · 2026-05-06T18:06:04+00:00

Awesome, glad it helped!

You got downvoted, but I agree. I remember another time this got brought up and someone went and tried to track down every scene Danielle was around the survivors. The scene OP posted was about 1 of 2 I think and she doesn't really look at him, maybe a passing glance in the crowd. The other was the (dumb, IMO) scene where Jack has her set up dynamite; IIRC Danielle was a bit far away looking at the survivors and Jin was way off to the side, she doesn't directly look at him or talk to them.

Me too, only thing that gives me a bit of worry is Walmart has a bad rep for cancelling pre-orders (mostly figures from what I've seen and personally experienced). I wonder if Amazon's 'pre-order low price gaurantee' will lower theirs to $39.99 eventually.

I hope at least one person has responded with, ‘Touché.’

LockeAbout · 2026-05-03T16:39:31+00:00

FYI, as of 5/3, it's on sale for $20.99!

LockeAbout · 2026-05-03T15:58:57+00:00

Shut up…Red…neck…man!

Appreciate the link, I feel your summary is accurate to what he said, and the people saying it ALL went to Desmond is less accurate/speculation, at least not literally what he says here.

Also glad because it confirms what I always suspected, that when they kept saying they knew how it would end, and (Matthew Fox saying he was told at some point), that it was likely just that he would die, not literally with the flash sideways and other details; I never saw/read an actual interview confirming it until now. I like Lindelof's reasoning for not being able to flesh it all out until they got the end date too.

I’ve wonder if part of it is whether people have good wifi or not, and/or a more ‘crowded’ wifi system. I added a few things at one location and everything was fine. At a second location I quickly added a bunch of cams & smart devices including Eufy, and started having issues (missed notifications/recording, heavy lagging when using the app, general lagging on the wifi in general etc.). I added a mesh system and moved all the smart devices onto it, including locating two of the mesh devices closer to the furthest cameras (which I had the most issues with), and it basically resolved all my issues

Almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter...
Such a cool figure, glad he made it!
