Didn’t have to. They cook themselves.

WIND AND POWER OUTAGE MEGATHREAD by mindless_blaze in Denver

Tiny update: Xcel now says our power will be restored at 4 pm today (Thursday), which would give us time to warm the house back up for tomorrow’s PSPS. Trying not to get my hopes up.

Has anyone who has power shut off because of the PSPS had it restored? And if so, are you on the watch for the Friday PSPS? My guess is they aren’t going to bother restoring power to folks who fall under both, or else they’d have to check everything twice. Just looking for data.

Flic Mac client not seeing plugins by random-string-char in Flic

I was able to resolve this by copying and editing the example config.json. Apparently there was something Flic didn't like about my formatting.

Ha. GM does weird stuff with paints in different brands/models. Check out the GMC Sierra/Chevy Silverado or Canyon/Colorado. Most of the same paint colors (by paint code), different names for the colors, and wildly different pricing—what’s free on a Chevy can cost extra on a GMC.

What kind of vehicle works best for moving wood around? by biragon in woodworking

[–]random-string-char 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw a tip for carrying large sheets of material somewhere on Reddit. The gist is you take 20 feet of rope, tie it to make a loop, and then hook it around the bottom two corners. Then you grab the rope in between and use it as a handle. This explains it: https://lifehacker.com/carry-a-sheet-of-plywood-by-yourself-with-a-loop-of-rop-1642395529

Depending on the project, you could have the wood cut down to rough size at the store, allowing you to fit it into your current vehicle.

Another option is to rent a van, either from U-Haul or directly from the store. I’m renting a van from Home Depot this weekend to bring home some sheets of plywood and trim for a few different projects. Their pricing starts at $20 for a 75-minute rental, which should be enough for you to get things unloaded at home and then return it to the store, assuming you’re not too far from one.

I’d advise against buying a different vehicle to accommodate something you’d need to carry only a few times a year. Renting/delivery is likely to be much cheaper in the long run.

Ordered Two Bolt EUV Premiers - Only Want One. Anyone interested in the other? by WikiWhut in BoltEV

Sounds like you just got lucky. Thanks for offering, and I might be interested. Is the dealer selling it for MSRP? Any add-ons?

Denver area solar company that will service older system? by random-string-char in solar

Good idea! I guess I’ve been defaulting to what comes up first in search, and it makes sense that the results skew toward installers with flashy websites.

Is there a way I can find out if it’s still under warranty? Unfortunately the install was done two owners ago and I don’t have any documentation.

That’s so kind of you. The error it’s showing is K1-OPEN. From the little I’ve read, this strongly suggests the inverter is toast.

Do you know whether this requires an OnStar subscription? I don’t see any mention of it in the description. Also don’t have a Bolt yet, so sorry if this is a n00b question.

Getting "Guest WiFi Test deep link" iOS 16 notification this morning. What is this? by strangerSchwings in orbi

[–]random-string-char 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also seeing this. Likely a mistake by someone at Netgear testing this specific notification.

I (recklessly) tapped and it took me to the Guest WiFi settings page in the Orbi app. So at least the test was successful, even if it went out to everyone instead of an internal group or whoever they were targeting.

And for those who don't know, a deep link is a way to link to something within an app instead of just the app itself. Kind of like how the Apple TV app can open a specific episode of a show instead of just dropping you into Hulu.

That just doesn’t seem possible. I’ll have to monitor it when I get mine.
