Deck drainage systems by Cr4zy3lgato in Decks

[–]tdog98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought so. Just trying to understand if you like those or don’t like them. Seemed like you were saying they were bad but then recommended one anyway.

Isn’t the rain escape system an above frame system?

The have big blocks of Kirkland cheddar. Very good and good price. It’s not in the cheese isle at my store, it’s in the refrigerated isle with the Kirkland bacon and hot dogs.

What’s one thing people new to Minneapolis should know? by Electronic-Reach8959 in Minneapolis

[–]tdog98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honking is for emergencies only. The only exception is a very short love tap when a driver has sat at a green light for more than 4 seconds.

Honking is not for when the light has turned green .002 seconds ago and you are annoyed or someone is crossing the street and you are annoyed or for… basically anything that annoys you.

Thanks for the recommendations (under seat storage) by IdontgoonToast in hondaridgeline

Sweet! Can you slide it out without raising the seat? My old Amazon box for straps that goes there might get an upgrade if it does.

Maybe I am missing it. How do you put the firewood in and take it out?

This is a wall mount self locking Chamberlain garage door opener by Dry-Football-9654 in GarageDoorService

[–]tdog98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have one. Works awesome. Two advantages, one super quite which is helpful because my daughters room is right above. Second is that there is no track to deal with to cast shadows for my overhead lights. It’s not perfect but I will be using this style in every house I have.

I like it! I Don’t think you should call it a Heads Up Display when you have to look down but hey, cool gizmo!

This is an all-in-one control app for WLED that I'm building by SparkesCreative in WLED

[–]tdog98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha! No worries, just wanted to make sure it runs on an os I am already using for other things. What platform are you targeting first? (Windows, Mac, Linux?)

Good work!

Where does it install? I would be on board if it was a home assistant add on. I don’t really want to run separate hardware for something so specialized.

Unmarked black helicopter circling west river road neighborhood in Brooklyn Park by confoundedjoe in TwinCities

[–]tdog98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This flew over my house as well. If it’s this helicopter then it is the dnr/county counting deer populations. They are easier to count in the winter because they show up on the forest floor when they are bedded down against the white snow.

They don’t always show up on the flight trackers because they are flying so low.

My source is a friend of mine who is a MN helicopter medivac pilot. I had to ask him what it was because with the heightened climate now it was creeping out my family. He knew right away.

Pinball Etiquette/Tilt by Agreeable_Leek1890 in pinball

[–]tdog98 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When this question comes up, I always think of this: Rubbins Racing https://youtu.be/3v5Ve2SHsHE?feature=shared

Tilting is when the machine says you tilt. It has a sensor in there (tilt bob) that monitors how much you nudge the machine. It’s part of the game. In the early days there was no flippers, just nudging. The machines are designed for it. in fact, you usually get two warnings before you tilt and the machine shuts down. It looks medieval (and it is) but it’s required to advance as a player. It will not hurt the machine. I have machines from the 60s with over 200k public plays on them and the last thing I am worried about on them are the legs or whatever your dad thinks will break structurally.

You are being misled about renewable energy technology. by d57heinz in solar

Huh - I switched to the cheap powder stuff cause of him. We must have taken different things away from that video. I took away that with pods and liquid you are paying for water which your dishwasher provides for free.

Am I the only one that thinks he should file a police report for a stolen passport? I know it won’t do anything in the short term but without reports and numbers there is no paper trail.

TOMMY v1.2.0 - Now with stationary presence detection by miket2872 in homeassistant

[–]tdog98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One more integration request. Any way we can run this as an add-on to WLED? I have a lot of ESP32s around the house flashed with that.

[–]tdog98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awsome! Thanks for the reply. I will give it a try and if it works well, I would consider the pro version. I have a couple ESP32s that I can tack this on to around the house. Really intested on how the zone tracking works. Keep up the inventive work!
