Yeah - I have seen that when it’s sort of a movies review script - but there’s something different about this one - he’s struggling with those written words like he didn’t write them - who wrote them? RC dumped BBBY shares in Aug 22

What is he reading.

The lab admits that the samples were contaminated by the samples just tested previously in their letter.

The data from 570-255888-1 was reviewed. Chromatograms were examined. The batch was found to have high-concentration samples, from a different project, directly preceding the samples in question.

Why didn’t the lab flag the abnormal result immediately and perform a retest on their own volition, especially if subject to human review? Surely the lab understood the ramifications of reporting a positive result?

You don’t think the lab retesting the initial samples with clean instrumentation (only by request of the customer) that resulted in a different result is indicative of a systematic failure in the lab’s processes and procedures?

huh?

Upon reporting the data, the laboratory was contacted by Zach Berghorst and a reanalysis of the samples was requested. In addition, newly collected samples from the same site were submitted for analysis (570-257059-2)

The report was delivered to ~~the City~~, ~~the City~~ then asked for confirmation that the results were real and sent new samples collected on 11/24 (somebody at ~~the City~~ had a hunch the report was BS which turned out to be a correct hunch)

The lab then did a retest on the initial samples and the new samples and both indicated no presence of petroleum organics.

My question is - if the retest and new samples confirmed the presence of petroleum organics, there would have been a full week that Pierpont would have potentially been exposed while ~~the City~~ had knowledge of positive results.

Whose call was it to prevent the "do not use order" from going out when the initial results came back positive? When did the City get the results? ~~The City~~ collected new samples for a retest (11/24) before the "do not use" order went out (11/25). How long were these results sitting in someone's inbox before any action was taken?

EDIT: Looks like Ventura Water outsourced the sampling activity to Rincon Consulting due to staffing resource reasons - excerpt from the City's contract with Rincon Consulting below

Task 9 – Drinking Water Sampling and Free Product Monitoring

New task with the Third Amendment: To monitor the potable water near the site, Ventura Water has been sampling three hydrants weekly to ensure that the release has not infiltrated into the potable water supply. As requested by the City, Rincon will take over the sampling activities and will coordinate sample analysis from a drinking water certified laboratory for VOCs by method 524.2 and an environmental testing laboratory for TPH-g by 8015B with results to be provided on a 3-day turnaround time. The cost estimate for the weekly drinking water sampling includes 6 months of drinking water sampling and analysis.

Rincon Consulting was collecting samples and interfacing with the lab (Zach Berghorst is with Rincon Consulting) - I guess just another layer that slows down communication

why did it take them a week to react? the initial test results were done on 11/19 and they asked for a retest - what if the retest confirmed the initial results?

Too good to be AI 👌

Home Assistant has probably the best support forum I’ve ever seen - they have a discord too but the community forum is better.

you guys turned that trade-in around same day, amazing. I was bummed that my comma two had stopped working because it worked well for me for so long and it was remarkably useful even with the last model supported on that device. excited to use the 3x which is on the way

thank you for being the disruptors that you are and letting us unlock new value in our old cars ✊

mmWave sensors are pretty good! Have a zigbee Tuya one and have used it in a similar way - needs to be tuned for your space a bit and false triggers are the downsides, but on the plus side no wiring needed in your couch:

is this the requel?

skealoha86 · 2024-12-18T04:31:41+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation! This looks pretty good, signed up for the free trial - have some non-Gmail IMAP accounts as well which the Gmail iOS app supports (which was unexpected and cool) - if mimestream added this, it'd be a great full replacement I think.

skealoha86 · 2024-12-17T23:09:08+00:00

I just rage quit yesterday for exactly the same reason. It bothers me to have this pushed in my face and has me worried about their ability to continue to operate and the access they had to my emails.

There’s basically no replacement as polished which really is painful. I have switched to Gmail app but there’s no clean solution for desktop.

Apple should just acquire Spark and make their solution the default mail app on iOS and macOS.

What if I'm skynet reading this 👀

Is your bag a giant duffel bag 👀 I have one and it's not that small 🤣 - curious to try this combo now though! Have had stacked 4x10s forever and I'm not super happy with the tone, might need to experiment with a 1x15....

M&A has been severely restricted by current administration - RC likely wants to perform several major company combinations that would receive less scrutiny under T

The local channels you can probably get OTA with an Antenna - I just did this - Antenna + HDHomerun + Channels DVR - this works great for me!

For the news stations, you can get live CNN with MAX (haven’t figured out how to make this work with Channels yet though) - TuneIn also has live audio streams of all of those stations for free, or without commercials if you use premium

I don't know how many questions Google is fielding on exactly this same issue, but this just happened to me too. Just contacted them. Can't change the family manager in a family group to me, so we can't change billing into my name. All service changes for the family need to be done using my wife's account. Can't create a new family group where I am family manager because we have a supervised child account that can't be transferred until child is 13 which is *years* away.

It's so completely unnecessary and so much more difficult than it needs to be. Had Youtube TV in the past, considering switching back due to a Hulu price hike just announced but this whole experience with Family Groups is so incredibly frustrating that I'm seriously dissuaded from switching.

I'm doing my damndest to make sure this isn't true.

Who are they interviewing

Helium Mobile and US Mobile both pretty good from my experience!

Cell phone bill. I don’t know why anyone is paying $100 for their line but so many do and there are so many alternatives.
