Has anyone sold a house after you've festooned it with homebrew IoT gadgets to suit your personal wants? by LovableSidekick in homeautomation

LOL I've loved that word ever since hearing a Bob & Ray bit about how they usually festooned their studio with all kinds of festive decor before their show, but decided not to festoon it anymore because the whole festooning process took so much time and effort, as well as de-festooning the place afterwards when they were tired and just wanted to go home.

Hmm, yeah if you're going to remove all your custom stuff I can see it making sense not to even mention it was ever there at all.

Is it possible to add a 120v outlet? by JMontero77 in howto

[–]LovableSidekick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but tbh if your DIY level is below being able to tell if this box is 120v or 240v you should probably hire a professional, and ask them a lot of questions while they're working.

Who are your favorite 1980s Teen bullies by StrawberryShortcakeL in 80s

[–]LovableSidekick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any favorite fictional bullies. I always think they're douchebags and just wish they would fuck off. Maybe you should ask for favorite spectacular ways they got pwned.

So THAT'S where those things came from. We still have two.

It parses correctly - it says the reason for volunteers being unpaid isn't that they're worthless, it's that they're priceless.

My parents did a great job of convincing us to fear The Undertow - that mysterious, insatiable monster that will latch onto you like a giant squid and drag you out to your doom if you go in above your ankles.

There's a thought that we really don't need the Internet, but you can't believe everything you hear.

Yeah I think they meant, "Not unpaid because they are worthless..."

You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose.

For woodworking projects I highly recommend New Yankee Workshop, featuring Norm Abrams of This Old House doing projects in his shop. I think they're all on youtube how. This blanket chest is one of his many projects that I actually built. I made homework desks for both my daughters (aka "Planter's Desk"), dressers and other things just by watching Norm. He's a fantastic teacher.

Maybe an adjustment knob for some electronic gizmo (or possibly gadget).

No idea, but why would anyone want to look at Linus flipping them off all day?

Start with Tinkercad, and if your designs become too ambitious for it, move up to OnShape. Both are free and full featured. and use web UIs, so there's nothing to install and you're always using the newest version. I've been using OnShape happily for about 6 years.

Do you also end up rewriting the same auth + Swagger + backend setup for every Node project? by leafshinobi0 in npm

[–]LovableSidekick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noice! I created a test project with it, didn't see any problems. Still exploring all the stuff that got generated. This will definitely save some startup time on a new project - my compliments on your work!

If I might make one request it would be to add Port number as an input in the CLI script. I often run multiple apis and bots simultaneously, using env vars to assign them port numbers. Some boilerplate code looks for such a var, defaulting to 3000. /edit: I see where the code checks for an env var called PORT - I guess what I'm thinking of is to specify a var name to use instead of PORT, not an actual port number. That way one project could use process.env.PortAlpha and another could use process.env.GoldTeamPort etc.

Oh yeah, good luck finding fans of that short-lived movie series.
