  • Where the hell was Theoden when the Westfield fell??

    That irks me about the movies, why was Theoden pissed about that when the reason Gondor never showed up is because he was entranced and never called for aid. :⁠-⁠\

  • I live in the PNW. Every election cycle I get massive amounts of Arizona conservative text spam. How do I make it stop?
  • Port your number to Google voice. Their spam blocking is great. That and/or get a Pixel. TBH I'm not exactly sure which one is blocking spam calls but I haven't gotten one in years. I only use Google voice for texting though, so that would have to be blocking spam texts.

  • I used to work overnight, 4 10s and it was like 10p-8a or 9p-7a. I switched to 8a-5p and it took weeks to turn around completely. I had been using mio energy in water for a couple of years at that point and I went from two 20oz bottles at night to four of them during the day. It was eye opening how completely draining working overnight was for me.

  • Tracking the temperature drop during the eclipse with Home Assistant!

    I've got a weather station outside and I use this add on to bring it into HA. We only had 79.8% coverage during the eclipse, but there was a noticeable drop in temperature!

    MyQ fails with 403 forbidden error after recent cloud changes · Issue #99947 · home-assistant/core

    I recently moved away from MyQ to local control of my garage door and I've been loving it. I stumbled across the linked issue where MyQ shit the bed for roughly 3 days and it just confirms to me that the extra effort to move away from a cloud service was worth it. I'm down to just one last cloud service for something inside my house. My mind is pretty much made up that if I can't accomplish it locally, I won't do/use it.

    The ratgdo local-only replacement for myQ is fantastically easy to setup

    I just setup ratgdo on my Chamberlain garage door opener and it was great. Flashing it via Chrome and configuration was easy, Home Assistant picked it up via MQTT immediately, and wiring it up was simple. All around a great experience and well worth the money. I'll keep myQ around for a few days, but if no issues crop up, I'll be kicking it to the curb soon.
