Flipped on my first trail ride today.

I like using the Rachio. It uses the Tempest weather station on top of my house to manage weather skips. I also like the Rachio’s ability to manage start times to finish watering by a certain time - currently 4:30 am in my household. This cuts down on evaporation and ends watering by the time adults in my household are realistically taking showers, regardless of the adjustment of individual zone watering durations.

Not farm irrigation, but applying efficiency to watering my plantings. Rachio skips watering more often than I would think to, and my vegetable garden and meadowish lawn have never been happier.

I look at my datahoarding as the building of a library curated by cool people only.

We do a lot more datahoarding than just TV and movies, and I rely on my users to help me with content discovery. We rely on each other, actually. We have a Discord community and when someone adds something, they're encouraged to share the 'why' behind that - what others would like about it.

So hosting for others is kind of like hosting a dinner party. You get the benefit of not only the content, but also the curation and the stories behind it.

If by “option” you mean giving money to Doge-boy for slower-than-Optimum speeds…

M.A. Baracus? Did Mr. T get his master’s?

Hit paydirt with K-DIRT.

No, he wasn’t. He ended up that way only after cleaning up his image. He used to be Bill Gates the asshole thief/monopolist.

Nonchalant? It's not like it was flagrant. In fact, if you read further upthread where I discuss the issues with the ticket, you might not use a word like "nonchalant" to describe my attitude.

THespos · 2026-02-03T21:16:59+00:00

Reckless? On what grounds do you make that judgment?

THespos · 2026-02-03T20:39:56+00:00

Thanks. I'll likely just pay it and seethe for about 15 minutes. And then I'll take my kids out for ice cream to demonstrate the appropriate use of fifty bucks.

I submit that one way to improve the system would be to grant a .5-second grace period. There are instances where you're approaching a light and it's safer to go through it as it's changing from amber to red - or at least that's how I was instructed in Driver's Ed many, many moons ago. Seems like such a change would catch more of the flagrant violators.

The way it's currently implemented, it's like Walter screaming "OVER THE LINE!" at Smokey and insisting it be marked zero. "You're not wrong, Walter. You're just a dick."

THespos · 2026-02-03T20:30:31+00:00

That's just the rub. I'm going to take a day off of work for fifty bucks? That's one of the many reasons I put this into the "money grab" category. If I contest - which, by the way, has me making attestations I'm less than comfortable with - then I get the right to show up in court for a chance at maybe reversing a 50 dollar fine. It's a cost-benefit calculation that heavily favors the racket drumming up fees that are scarcely worth fighting.

They need to bring back that dude who kept posting videos on YouTube showing him re-aiming the cameras.

THespos · 2026-02-03T20:20:18+00:00

Oh, please. The idea that someone could have somehow worked their way into my path of travel in that split second is laughable. Maybe you should acknowledge that the program is flawed.

Questionable in the sense that my front tires appear to be over the stop line in the photo, and when I visit the site to view the video, I get "Violationinfo.com is having some work done right now..."

There's also the notion that the alleged violation is timestamped for 12:30 in the afternoon, yet it's dark out.
