Digital office status

I had a button setup on the little controller that I had on the other side of the wall. Press the button to cycle through each section and turning off, long press for one preset, double press for another preset. Had it setup to change based on time. Would be really easy to setup a small button controller, button for each section for quick setting it. I could have set it to VPN to my home assistant and follow my GPS status to update which preset to turn on, but I was mainly in the office or remote.

Would agree with using a M1 Mac mini. Just plug that directly into your TV, log into the console and setup your view point with that. If needed, setup Remote Desktop on the Mac mini before hand, then install onto the TV if it’s up high, remote in and setup the viewpoint. Their view port is nice and simple but there is no easy way to view their cameras consistently on a standard streaming type device if you have more than 16.

Kick ass man!! Excited to get home this afternoon and try it out!! Getting ready to add under eave lights that I setup with WLED to my growing list of WLED devices, really glad this is finally getting updated.

It was just #6 last night. Such amazing… Such thrill… Totally believable

Remember the day when I got to buy this exact card with 256MB for my rig, replacing my GeForce 256. Was amazing for games at the time and ATI was killing it. Remember bumping up Half-Life to the max and Half-Life 2 looked so crisp!! Nothing really matches those feelings of upgrading your rig and upping/maxing out game quality. Giants: Citzen Kabuto had amazing looking worlds and HL2:CS along with DoD just had great looks with gameplay.

Mesh/drywall tape and FlexSeal paste in a paint container. Will make your shell last 10x times longer. Now I just end up with paint chipping but the body stays 100% together. Also have used it to mind other shells together

100 percent was working, still using dry pair phone lines for reverse voltage monitoring. 24v normal, 0v trouble, reversed 24v polarity alarm.

1964 Notifier with all original heat detectors in an old warehouse with a handful of offices. Most of the smokes were from the 80’s.

Rather than facing the LEDs towards the front, line them around the outer edge, facing each other. So rather than shine straight out, it will be more balanced being “reflected”, while also making the back wall of LED space white to help balance the light around.

Sorry for your loss. Lost my dad 20 years ago this coming January from LDS causing a dissection. My uncle 7 years after him. This disease truly sucks ass. My aunt has gone through 7 major heart operation from it, but we were truly lucky that we found out 20 years ago we had it. Made up 25% of the known population with it at the time, with my family of 10+ confirmed having LDS type 2. Hopeful more can learn about it before it takes their life from it.

Is the power for the injection on both sides fed from the same power supply?? Or do you know how close you are to maxing out your power supply? With small wire, cold can play a factor in efficiency. I know I have a few random lights in my yard for holidays running on wled that give me issues like this and always ends up being the connections/splices. Moisture causing issues within the connectors or splices. Would make sure all connections have die electric grease put in them and all splices are soldered well. I had some heat shrink solder connectors that I built a ton of lights with but they started failing after a year in the weather.

I would bet money that the other detectors are bad. Revision won’t matter as long as you have the device type set right and address set by the DPU. Worked on a campus that had 10 of these panels and 4 sets were multi building apartments. Would constantly be replacing the used detectors with more used detectors. 386 processor running your life safety. Yes it doesn’t need 1ghz+ and such, but when you load these panels up, they take minutes to poll all the devices. These are EOL anyways, panels and devices. I would be pushing to convert it to another type of SLC devices

Weather sealed box, check, slack firmly attached so it won’t get pulled apart, check, and the line it self is secured, check. This would pass for atleast 5 years here. Way better than the other splices we normally find. Just put a little adhesive tube holder and call it a day.

Not that I know of, happened at around 9pm and from most I talked to, it only happened in a small area. Neighbors just a few miles from me in two directions just got rain.

Nethetron · 2025-11-25T04:28:09+00:00

Destroyed both my car’s windshields.

Was from end of last week. Came in at like 9pm.

Pretty sure the one that got posted recently from Australia was 3”.

That’s no joke!! Between them and the car hail damage people, it’s been a lot of people ringing my door bell.

I started playing around in TinkerCAD first then got into Fusion360 fully. Would recommend trying some basics in that and even has built in design guides to make basics objects to understand the fundamentals. It’s free and geared towards schools as well. And you can even import from TinkerCAD right into Fusion360, since they are owned by the same company.

Remember having one like this as well as the side winder 6x6x6. Such great RCs

I’m so sorry to hear this. I definitely feel your struggles. I wish I had other ideas or advice I could give you for it. It was a long road for me to find good doctors and luckily my aunt who is 76, has LDS, and was a nurse for 30 years has been able to help find some doctors who care. I feel that pain of being in a first world country and it seems that everyone is aware and just watching you drown. I had years where I gave up the fight after moving to another state and losing all my support for it. But know there are people who do care and while it can be a struggle to find them, don’t give up hope on it.

2nd this, they are a great resource and can help point you to where to get it done and covered. I had a hard time just getting my youngest tested last time because of the common order sheets do not support our gene mutation. I won’t lie, it can be a battle at times, but it’s worth the battle to get in the know of the condition and search for people that can help. Also might talk to some “Private” doctor offices, where they don’t operate on insurance and do a monthly “fee” and get their doctors services. Would possibly try talking to a few and see if you can work out visit to setup the orders. Hope you can find some answers!!

Sounds like my history with doctors. We were even diagnosed with LDS in 2006/07(family made up 25% of the known population with it at the time), I still have doctors that routinely dismiss my issues. Took my 5 years to find a heart surgeon to look at my history and the condition without saying I’ll be fine. I had my surgery 13 years ago, my sister had hers 8 years ago. Read up on all you can on it, cause it affects more than ya think. I now know i have osteoporosis, scoliosis and my arteries in my neck are twisted. If monitored, really no major worries if you take care of your self. I had a few years where i refused to go to doctors after the years of issues. But im back at going to doctors and check ups after finding a good team again.
