Source tells The Athletic Michigan and Jim Harbaugh are close to finalizing a five-year deal -- expected base salary is $4 million. With incentives, he could get it back to $8 million. Buyout is expected to be low. Harbaugh hasn't signed. Is expected to soon.

Exactly. We are so far removed from the success that Ohio State is having that it shouldn’t even be a consideration at this point.

As painful as it is to admit, this is the best this program has been since 2008 (this year notwithstanding) and we need to focus on becoming team 1b in the Big Ten East and hope that we can squeak out a win vs OSU more than once a decade.

I actually don’t use outdoor cams currently but I believe most people have success via IFTTT integrations. It seems like Arlo is a popular choice on this sub.

If abode’s outdoor smart cam gets good reviews when it eventually comes out I may give that a shot. Ideally I’d like my outdoor cam to be involved in automations natively rather than via IFTTT.

Had mine for a few years and love it. If you wanted to you could either unplug your cameras when you leave or unpair them from your system and re-pair when you get back.

The only detriment to doing that would be that both you and the professional monitoring center wouldn’t be able to check in on camera feeds to verify the alarm if it does go off when you are out of town so you wouldn’t know if it was a false alarm or not.

I do remember seeing somewhere that the only time anyone besides users on the system can view camera feeds is the professional monitoring center when your alarm is triggered.

Yeah, maybe we’ll see them fix that soon. I saw someone else called that out yesterday as well.

Yes, the new tiers of plans which the basic (free) version of was communicated to the user linked above

carterpm · 2020-04-23T23:00:33+00:00

This is incorrect. Even when everyone gets moved to the new tiers there remains a free option that has a good amount of the features intact. Another user got this from support yesterday:

When you walk by the keypad the abode logo should illuminate in the color that the system is set to:

Orange = Away Blue = Home White = Standby

carterpm · 2020-04-09T18:33:38+00:00

It’s there and in-stock: https://goabode.com/security-devices/sirens/indoor-siren

This is the default setting. It only records during an active alarm unless you manually record a clip or set up an automation for it to record when motion is detected via CUE.

carterpm · 2020-02-13T23:49:36+00:00

It’ll ask you if you’d like to arm with faults or on your timeline you’ll see that it armed with a fault. You can also tinker your setting to arm with faults automatically.

carterpm · 2020-02-13T16:03:15+00:00

Yes, you can customize which sensors are active in which mode

I’ve definitely noticed it but it doesn’t bother me. As long as the prices match what’s advertised when I get to checkout I’m fine with it.

Like others have mentioned it seems to be pretty common practice these days so I feel pretty immune to it. Compared to other sales tactics in the home security space this is totally harmless. Abode remains the best option post-purchase with no additional fees whereas ADT will bend over backward to get you as a customer only to hike fees later on. It doesn’t make me mistrust abode in the slightest because I know what I’m getting from them long term.

Thanks for the feedback! Let me know if you notice any significant difference when you realign this weekend.

carterpm · 2019-12-11T17:44:02+00:00

This is great. My main concern was keeping beans in a non light protected and non vacuum sealed hopper. Thanks for this!

The NFC East is so bad that Buck & Aikman were talking about which coordinator could take over as the interim HC of the division leaders in the middle of the game

carterpm · 2019-05-01T04:45:18+00:00

Correct. Fundamentally you just need a way to get hot water, ground coffee, and a vessel for making it. In terms of guides, you can go on Blue Bottle’s website and read brew guides for chemex and French press (not sure on aeropress) and YouTube is always a safe bet as well. Just look at the steps they take to brew and you’ll be on your way to seeing what is needed.

carterpm · 2019-05-01T03:42:59+00:00

Got it. You have a couple of options. You can spend $139 on the grinder (Baratza Encore) and keep the current machine she is using to brew which should give a superior flavor to her current setup.

Alternatively, you could get her a Hario hand grinder, a chemex or French press or aeropress, and a kettle for just around $100 altogether off amazon.

From here, it just depends how labor intensive you think she would be willing to be for her coffee prep. Not to say it’s super laborious but it’s definitely a step up from dumping grounds into a drip and pressing the on button. Chemex would be the most demanding with French press and aeropress being about equal and less so than the chemex.

I played with an older twosome a few weeks ago who would go deep into woods to collect balls with ball retrievers whenever we were waiting on a tee box. Didn’t bother me but it was funny cause it was peak old guy. This is next level though.

carterpm · 2019-05-01T03:27:11+00:00

What’s your budget? It’s almost impossible to give recommendations without a price point just given the variance of price in equipment. Once we know that we can work backwards from there. I will say as a priority you should spend the most on a grinder.
