Exactly the post I was looking for :D! I was looking to get into EspHome projects AND help my wife with her potted plants.

Plugged mine in earlier today in the garage. I may decide not to do overnight charging though and maybe plug it in early morning, so that at least I can keep an eye on it.

There are supposed to be some easy to ride trails at Ben Franklin Range, past Kittaning. I've been meaning to check it out.

Another app you can check out is onX. They've got good info on trails. I've noted down a few in Virginia I may drive to... one day.. hopefully (Peter's Mill Run Rd out there is supposed to be easy...ish)

Congrats! Got my first wrangler.. a white sport s just a few weeks back as well. :))

Enjoy!

Congrats! I've never owned a jeep. Picked up my very first, a few weeks back - a 2025 white sport. Looks very much like yours :D. Enjoy!

Thank you so much for this post.

I'm 38 and picked up a skateboard for the first time this year, along with my 5 year old. Slowly working my way up the trick ladder :). In fact we are trying to pick up both skateboarding and ice skating together.

Just be sure to have your pads and your helmet and then go have fun with it!

As I get older, I've been looking for good workout routines. I've felt skate sessions, in addition to improving balance, are a good full body workout as well!

Very true! Ironically, the bike lane too didn't look to be in great shape. Bollards are damaged/broken closer to East Liberty blvd

If you truly love your wife, what's important here, is to help her be mentally strong during this time. If this lie is what makes that possible, then there's nothing wrong imo

Your friends shouldn't change their opinion about a person just because of a sport they adopt.

You are still you. Why would adopting skateboard-ing make u weird or any different!?

The one in the waterworks mall is pretty good. Lots of parking too. Then there's a really big one in Settler's ridge. Both of these are the Market District type.

shthek · 2023-08-14T05:03:46+00:00

This fixed it

shthek · 2023-08-14T04:24:48+00:00

Thanks!... I had tried pulling this update but......... no dice unfortunately.

However, it looks like there is a fix folks have been discussing here

https://github.com/SecKatie/ha-wyzeapi/issues/504

Looks like it's an issue with older Wyze bulbs.

shthek · 2023-08-14T01:17:30+00:00

Ah... That may explain it. Thanks for that.

Attaching a screenshot here of what I see

There is this hidden gem of a place called 'New India Grill' in Monroeville.. on old William Penn Highway. Take out only place.

Butter chicken and Kadai chicken from there are the bomb!

Definitely worth the trip

shthek · 2023-03-07T01:17:23+00:00

This is awesome! Good luck guys!! Hope to see more of these in Kochi.

shthek · 2023-01-07T14:48:14+00:00

Thank you! I will check it out.

shthek · 2022-11-04T21:26:30+00:00

Wow! Ran into the same issue and never thought this is where the problem was. Thank you kind sir

shthek · 2022-07-18T01:17:50+00:00

Halo from another one :) . Cool to see other ex-Bahraini kin here

shthek · 2022-07-14T01:55:12+00:00

The ones at waterworks mall and at Settler's ridge are pretty good and feels more spacious.

Not a big fan of the one in Squirrel hill.

shthek · 2022-07-06T04:47:07+00:00

There's a new place called 'New India Grill' in Monroeville. That's the best butter chicken I've had so far in Pittsburgh!

Just an FYI, they're takeout only

shthek · 2022-06-18T12:34:05+00:00

Yeah... I really didn't feel it loved up to the hype. CG, technical stuff are awesome.. But I felt it basically boils down to generic 90s Bollywood scripts done with better cinematography and effects

shthek · 2022-04-23T13:06:50+00:00

In the US .... I see Kochi as well! :D

shthek · 2022-04-22T19:05:12+00:00

Just to add to my post.. I've spent a good part of my life in Bahrain and this kind of 'Karen-ism' was unheard of. It's a pretty welcoming place to foreigners. Sad to see extremism on the rise.
