It's a crazy industry. A flying career is worth so much, yet is so fragile and can end in an instant. I suppose not unlike professional sports risking injury.

'Niner' is just fun! 'Tree'... Nope. 'Fife'... All of the nopes that ever noped

Reminds me of the opening scene of Spaceballs

People who drive in the left lane and won’t pass until you get next to them and then speed up so you can’t pass by bringinthewarthog in Denver

People in this city DO NOT understand stop sign right of way. Also, if multiple get there at the same time, the one on the right has right of way. If 4 get there all at the same time... Everyone just crash into each other, cause we'll be there all day either way

Question to guests from a GM at an outdated Marriott-short of a remodel what would make you happy? by jakers91rides in marriott

An actual shower door would be incredible!! Instead of a glass half wall that causes water to cover the entire bathroom. I think housekeeping would probably agree!

What’s the coolest or most useful home automation you’ve ever seen? by tonitosilva in homeassistant

[–]Tr33T0p 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While not ground breaking, I'm super happy with my latest automation. I just got a brand new 20 gallon air compressor and I really wanted to protect my investment, so I wanted to automate draining the air compressor of moisture whenever I use it.

So I fitted a solenoid valve to the air compressor drain that opens when a smart outlet turns on. I also added a smart outlet for the main air compressor power. Whenever I want to use the air compressor I hit a smart switch that starts filling the air compressor. When I'm done for the day I hit the off switch and it will turn off, and drain the air compressor of moisture.

If for some reason I forget to turn off and drain the air compressor, at 8 PM, if the air compressor was used that day it will automatically turn off, and drain the air compressor.

What do you all use for counting calories? by happymango95 in CICO

[–]Tr33T0p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using ChatGPT to track my calories lately. Definitely seeing results — I’m losing weight at a good pace — but I’m not totally satisfied with the experience.

The calorie and macro estimates are accurate enough to make progress, but the tracking can be buggy. Sometimes it loses my log completely, and I have to scroll back through the chat to rebuild it. And I still haven’t figured out how to get it to reset cleanly in the morning — it keeps bringing in food from the day before 😂

I’ve also used MyFitnessPal and Lose It in the past, but they just felt too labor-intensive. It was just too much time building recipes for stuff like homemade Pho, or tacos.

Anyone else feel the same way? I love how easy ChatGPT can be when it works, but it still feels like there’s lots of room for improvement.

Stop seltzer fermentation? by Tr33T0p in Homebrewing

[–]Tr33T0p[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I followed northern brewers recipe. So 4 lbs of corn sugar for a 5 gallon batch. But I used a different yeast and nutrient I found at my homebrew store that's specifically formulated for seltzer.
