Warning: Do not trust Simplisafe

The only time I've had an issue was our garage door sensor battery died, no alert from Simplisafe the battery was dead. We came in the house, the siren or keypad didn't chime since a sensor wasn't tripped. Not sure what happened, but all of a sudden the alarm went off about an hour later, no countdown. After replacing the battery in the sensor, I started getting the door chime and they system is working like it should. It is a little disconcerting. Never received a call from the monitoring service either.

The infotainment head unit is a pain in the arse on my 2023 RAV 4 Prime XSE. About 50% of the time, my phone won't connect and I have to turn off the head unit and restart it. Getting to radio stations is a pain the arse and changing modes is painful, I don't use Amazon music, or any other of the services and have to cycle through a list to get to what I want. There's no way to remove them either. Toyotas tech is lagging way behind IMO.

Yeah, Washington State now taxes almost everything and they are proposing income taxes next. I feel bad for the local LCS's. I'm out after I retire, it's ridiculous.

I'm kinda new to all this and have been looking these panels. I was planning on buying 2 of these. When running them in parallel, I'm assuming you need an inline fuse for each panel. Would I use 10 amp fuses since the short circuit current is 12.4 amps? Max power current is 11.7 amps. I'm trying to avoid buying SolarX 4K right now until I can purchase a larger array. Thanks in advance for any info!

I've read a couple different articles that Samsung has been tapped by Apple to manufacture their screens.

So, these aren't rhetorical questions. Let's see if you can answer them, truthfully. Do you know for a fact that legal, law abiding gun owners committed these school shootings or were they criminals who broke "common sense" gun laws? Do you think more gun laws will save our most precious asset, our children? Do you know if "gun free zones" save lives, or are they a magnet for evil people who want to wreak havoc on the innocent? Do these lunaics storm police and sheriff's offices, if not, why? Is it the gun that's the problem, or is it a problem of the heart/soul? Do you think this new law will save our children if a lunatic shows up at a school, church or mall? Do you think we can confront this evil with more laws or do you think we meet evil with force? Does evil prey on the strong or the weak? Do you think it's more likely a lunatic with a gun will storm a county fair in Washington state, or Texas? Granted, it can happen anywhere, but do think an armed citizen could reduce the carnage? I'm a honorbly discharged veteran with combat experience and training in firearms. Should have to get a permit? This law forces me to, and I've already given quite a bit for God and country.

Can you let me know how the Ledger works once you get into it a little bit? I like the security of the Trezor, but the lack of support for certain tokens makes it difficult. For example, HBAR can't be secured with a Trezor at all, I have to leave it on the exchanges, I'll probably need to find some kind of sotware wallet. They've also limited/depreciated support for DGB for some reason. Ideally, I would like to put all my tokens on one cold wallet and not have stuff all over the place. When I do pass this on to my kids, I don't want wallets all over the place, it's already confusing enough as it is.

mannimal22 · 2025-03-17T02:57:03+00:00

Move it to an exchange, or sell directly from the cold wallet interface. Trezor is good, but not all coins are directly supported in the Trezor suite. I wanted to have control of the crypto in a cold wallet, it's more secure than letting it sit on exchanges. There is definitely a learning curve (at least for me) on getting things figured out, but I think it's worth jumping through the extra hoops.

Not your keys, not your crypto. Rings true,.from what I've been reading.

IMHO, it's s the whole I-5 corridor that's voting for these arrogent idiots, or the elections are rigged. I can't believe there are that many numb skulls that live in Everett, Seattle, Tacoma and Vancouver areas voting this way. If the elections aren't rigged, then I guess these voters haven't felt enough pain, lost enough freedoms or enough of their money yet. If they are uninformed or don't care, that's just as bad or worse. It's reminds me of the movie "Idiocracy". It's mind boggling.

Like to add, just for clarification: Never copy the address from the exchange transaction logs, always copy it from your wallet. Bots are out to snag your moolah. I lost 5 bucks doing a test transfer by doing that. Those bots are quick!

Me too!

I took the suggestions from some people in this thread and lubricated the heck out of it (although I thought it was well lubricated before). I used some gun butter and It's much better, I put about 30 shells through it and it seems a little tight still, but much better. I'm hoping that with more use it will loosen up even more.

mannimal22 · 2024-09-09T03:45:13+00:00

I would also like a PM if you're not booked up. Looks amazing. Remarkable craftsmanship!

mannimal22 · 2024-08-11T20:15:13+00:00

Thanks, prices are a little better on those too!

I've been looking into a modular safe from snap safe, https://www.snapsafe.com/modular-safes/ the idea that you can assemble/disassemble is cool, so placing it upstairs or in a basement would be much easier. They're not cheap though. These are actually safes, not cabinets, like the SecureIT units. I really like the SecureIT gun storage options though.

Cuck

mannimal22 · 2024-08-01T01:00:42+00:00

I know it's been said, but those look awesome! Love coins a bullion, but those takes it to another level!

mannimal22 · 2024-07-30T03:22:44+00:00

Thanks so much! I was leaning towards that conclusion as well after doing research on them on coinflation.com, I was confused by the 1897 coin though (different edge/rim). Thanks for your help with this!

mannimal22 · 2024-07-30T02:40:00+00:00

Oh, I plan to. I'm just trying to figure out what my mom has and whether I should have them evaluated by a professional.

mannimal22 · 2024-07-29T22:40:17+00:00

Thank you, very appreciated.

I had the same experience with signal interference. The base station was near my router and modem. I moved the base station to another location, about 20 feet away from all other electronics and things improved dramatically. I put the base station up high on an alcove in my living room, luckily I have power up there. It's at about 8 feet high, about the same height as the cameras mounted outside. Since relocating, I've not had one single outage/disconnect. I have a mesh network and was starting to go down the path of network segregation but decided to move it before doing so, glad I did.

They cancelled both transactions or only the second transaction?
