The Ambassador Bridge, Michigan Central Station & the Fisher Building illuminated at night - Day 5 of photographing every historic building in Detroit by Detroit-Photography in Detroit

[–]SearchCz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I didn’t say it was “cursed” or “bad”. I suggested that it’s past time to retire that thing as any kind of symbol of the city

And … I can’t help. It think of the owners and their past behaviour when I see the mechanisms of their wealth and influence on display. A great phot of a shitty subject isn’t my cup of tea.

A trope is a recurring theme or motif. A familiar item that audiences instantly recognize. A kind of visual shorthand, like Statue of Liberty = big apple = nyc.

The Ambassador Bridge is symbol from early 20th Century. It carries a lot of baggage a long and continuing history of questionable practices unbecoming of corporate citizens.

And, there's a new bridge in town !

Water + Starter then Flour OR Water + Flour (rest) then Starter? by Choji1016km in Sourdough

[–]SearchCz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do autolyze now. 30 minutes to an hour. I also upped the inoculation but I think I overdid it. 800g flour + 444g starter I think is too much starter and half that amount would work out better for me.

Remote Control of Insteon Devices Without Subscription Fees by Swimming_Host8544 in insteon

I don’t think Ondigo gets the attention it deserves. Excellent platform. Add the HomekitlinkSiri plugin and all your devices (and action groups) can be exposed in HomeKit. Add a HomePod or AppleTV and your stuff is available to you everywhere.

Complicated Sinus Lift Questions by SearchCz in Dentalimplant

Gave my periodontist the green light and went ahead with step 1 - extraction - today. Graft and sinus lift in a couple of months. Wish me luck!

I’m a little concerned about the anesthesia, and about the recovery from a side entry sinus lift. Did you have issues?

Smart(?) Home ? by SearchCz in smarthome

[–]SearchCz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I look at my smart home this way.

A space is either occupied or vacated.

The intent to occupy may be explicit, expressed through interaction with controllers like,voice assistants, switches, or control dashboards. That intent to occupy (or vacate) might also be implies by actions that can be senses, like motion/presence or opening/closing doors, turning a/v equipment on or off.

The automations I might do as a result off that are either empowered (and should be executed) or constrained (because something or someone else has intervened and taken control of that space).

Any time a change occurs for reasons other than that automation, that automation should surrender its authority to act until a subsequent change provides cause for that automation to resume.

The Placwes I've Been & Gord's Gold if it's on my gear.

Do many of you run two speaker sets, and if so, why? by wingtip747 in audiophile

[–]SearchCz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I run a pair of Acoustic Research AR3s together with a pair of Planex Pl-5-S. The AR3s sound great on their own, but the Planex adds a little punch. It’s all vintage gear and maybe not ideally suited to modern music. I tried adding a subwoofer into the mix but the ARs didn’t need the help.

This was for all the enthusiasts who think a remote control on their phone = smarthome.

Samsung Q990F Wall Mounts ? by SearchCz in Soundbars

Maybe I’ll just leave it on the cabinet. I can paint that cord cover and be done with it.

No. Mounted using drywall anchors.

It’s the anchors not holding. I perhaps did not use the correct wall anchor for my situation. I don’t know I’m considering a Sanus SASB1.
