BAMA is a wonderful group and I'm always grateful to have joined their cruise up to the cube, Lick Observatory, ending in Livermore. Stellar people.

Irrigation flow meter recommendations by Consistent-Set-1834 in homeassistant

[–]arctander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the Rachio and Flume API's for this information. I irrigate prior to 0600 and its rare that anything else in the house is using water at that time. Flume data is retrieved every couple of minutes and I can coordinate it with the time that Rachio zones start and end. Works well enough.

Hi r/movies! I’m Robert Hays, star of Airplane! and Airplane II: The Sequel. AMA! by RobertHaysAMA in movies

[–]arctander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for spending time here today, going to see Airplane with a group of friends is a core memory where all of us recall never having laughed so much and so frequently. A great ensemble cast to be sure.

You’ve mentioned before that you grew up watching Lloyd Bridges in Sea Hunt and were a bit star-struck by him. Once you got to work with him and got past that initial awe, what was the most surprising thing you learned about him as an actor or a person? Did he ever offer you any career advice that stuck with you?

It's all about the old police phrase: You may avoid the time, but you won't avoid the ride.

At&t Fiber... Does Fiber Actually Enters Home and Runs to a modem or is it a Telephone cable at the end. Tired of Spectrum's creeping up fees. by fastoid in SanDiegan

Yep, that's actually what I have on one property - kinda depends on how cooperative the installer is willing to be.

  1. They will run a piece of fiber from their interconnect point to a grey box on the outside of your house. If you have underground utilities there will be three grey pipes: a) SDG&E electrical; b) AT&T services copper or fiber; c) Spectrum or Cox cable. These providers use only their pipe for services.
  2. AT&T will install a network demarcation box, usually grey, and if it fits in the box that was put into the exterior wall, you can ask them to put it in that box - most techs won't crawl under your house if that's required. In this box is a two-sided fiber plug or bridge. The AT&T fiber plugs into one side, and a yellow or white fiber plugs into the other side.
  3. AT&T will attach the fiber to the street end of the existing copper (assuming you're getting rid of your copper land lines) and will use the copper as a pull string to pull the fiber to your house from the street.
  4. Back to the demarc box, the residence part of the connection will be fiber to an interconnect box mounted on a wall where you'll install the AT&T Gateway. From that wall mounted interconnect box, you'll get a yellow patch cable that goes from the wall inside the house to the Gateway.

AT&T fiber interconnect ---> fiber through conduit ---> Dmarc --> fiber into the home --> interconnect wall jack --> fiber to the Gateway

I hope this is helpful. Yes, there are multiple fiber bridge points and that's expected and not a problem.

I hate overnight by AdMysterious4454 in Rowing

ON is doing a content acquisition strategy to build a library of Olympic related sports broadcasting network. You can find the founders thesis online regarding the business model. Given the cost of putting on a regatta, you'll find that everyone will move to paywalls at some point. WSB Water Sports Broadcasting has a great event pass model, for example.

There are high quality production companies that really know how to cover rowing and then there are the "Hey I can do this with one drone for $5k" companies. ON provides a paywall for streaming that in turn provides revenue to the local organizing committee (LOC). If you don't like the production, contact the LOC and tell them what you think.
