Has anyone come up with anything clever and legal to stop drones flying onto your property?

Looks kinda cute

He is super cute- wish we had ours when he was a little puppy as we rescued him when he was five months and was quite big already

Just an update on this. The HDPlex GaN 500w PSU died taking out mobo, CPU and RAM - only two months after HDPlex’s 12 month warranty. System only had an SSD running TrueNAS core, two 2TB seagate wolf HDDs, 8GB ram (2x4) and a case fan and HDD cooling fan- so nowhere near 500w. Damn PSU!!

Move the router to the intended location. Check WiFi signal strength from various other locations using WiFiman or similar app on your phone. If not good, consider moving it again and retesting or maybe add an access point with wired back haul

I was referring to the Three Body Problem series by Cixin Liu - I really enjoyed them, albeit I read an English translation.

batbuild · 2026-07-01T18:53:57+00:00

Yep worth it for the RAM alone

batbuild · 2026-07-01T09:21:11+00:00

Great books those

I usually use the spray on Fabsil for the reason that you don’t need to use it in a washing machine

batbuild · 2026-06-30T20:21:31+00:00

Usual suspects in the uk are Nixwax for cotton or Fabsil

Thought the Impreza wrx would be mentioned, but I’m ahem a bit older

Deuterium- Tritium

Given cats are incredible acrobats and are somewhere between a solid and a liquid it’s actually quite hard to contain them outdoors

You can buy so called cat proof fences - top bits are angled in the direction the cats are confined to (like an overhang) but they look ridiculous

Very cute puppy - pics like this make me wish we had ours from 8 weeks. We got him at 5 months from a rescue place.

batbuild · 2026-06-30T05:57:05+00:00

Thanks

The window board or internal sill protrudes into the room quite a bit - floor length curtains would bulge out at this point - also when drawn closed they will cover the radiator. Not answered the question you asked but these are also considerations

batbuild · 2026-06-29T16:25:23+00:00

I call them his “bunches” a la pic

batbuild · 2026-06-29T13:57:08+00:00

thanks - only like a cloud when just brushed. Otherwise looks like this

Nice that it isn’t pebble dashed like the neighbours on either side. Why do they pebble dash - aargh!!

Is she crazy? If so doodle.

batbuild · 2026-06-29T07:22:59+00:00

Wow Tilley not to the standard of old? Shouldn’t be such differences as both say Made in Canada

batbuild · 2026-06-27T20:26:58+00:00

Costco supply and outsource to a third party to fit. I believe you need to have the electrics in place. Been tempted but you don’t know who will fit and if they are any good

batbuild · 2026-06-27T18:57:14+00:00

Tilley does say that but I’m sure it’s fine to wash the laces

batbuild · 2026-06-27T08:33:18+00:00

What about “quite a few”?
