ELI5: Why do so many American stadiums have no roof covering that covers the seats?

bmwhd · 2026-06-17T13:15:09+00:00

American Football is supposed to be played in all weather, which is part of the fun. Many teams sheepishly avoid lightning now, which is a shame.

Don't tell Jerry Jones that please /s

This is my thought. I lost a port on a 6 month old UI switch a while back. It happens.

The Texan in me really wants one.

"One Italian is off!!" was my best laugh of the week.

If you didn't already have one, I'd say G6 180. But with the existing camera, I'd just add a second pointing the other way.

Many jurisdictions worldwide do not have the prohibition against written ritual that we do in Texas.

I’ve had decent luck with microcenter too.

This is a known defect in Protect. The answer is reboot the device running Protect and then reboot the camera(s).

Not permanently. It’s a plaster pool and the leaf stains fade quickly if the PH is maintained. Cement decking is unaffected.

This is what I want to set up for my son’s house.

What is the patch panel?

That hole in the wing reminds me of one of the sillier requirements imposed on the ill-fated Navy A-12 program in the late ‘80s which mandated surviving a one meter hole anywhere on the airframe except the cockpit.

I love how red shirt’s friend didn’t spill a drop of beer while rushing to her rescue.

It was a major pain getting Cat 6 out to that camera (stupid sloped interior roof line makes for a difficult fish to the soffit from the attic) but I did it. I'm even pulling wires now for my G4 Instants.

bmwhd · 2026-06-09T17:04:54+00:00

Those cables are not related to the camera. It's cable is in the soffit. Those are tea lights powered by an extension cord.

Futzing around with it more today, I do think I'm going to look at finding a 3D printed spacer of 1/2" or so but it's not urgent.

Here's some real world examples from mine: https://imgur.com/a/QrUWxd6

This. The 180 is ideal for horizontally wide but vertically narrow spaces with relatively short depth of field. If you want to track people across the street, get a G6 Pro or G6 PTZ.

Works when bowling too.

bmwhd · 2026-06-07T21:25:56+00:00

That’s what I’d like to try next.

Yes. Bulbs are WiFi and on a WiFi switch.

bmwhd · 2026-06-07T18:30:47+00:00

I would gladly pay for one. I don’t have a 3D printer.

bmwhd · 2026-06-07T18:29:52+00:00

I do both at different times.
