  • Keep doing that until the anxiety lowers. Make the next step, turning it on and letting it run while you do that. (If that’s not what you already did)

    Then practice selecting gears with your foot on the brake. i didn’t see the original post but I’m guessing you are working up to driving?

    You’ll be OK. Just breathe and tell your anxiety to get in the back seat.😉




  • IMO you can never be too suspicious of companies. Especially ones interested in your data.

    For your keypad, if it is zwave only you are probably fine. But if it has any WiFi capability let alone requirements as most do, then no. You can control your network but if you aren’t hooked into AWS then you can’t alter settings, and assuming you get sidewalk turned off, I would still expect it will likely piggyback data through sidewalk anyways because fuck consumer line go up.








  • Doesn’t seem popular here, but I like TinkerCAD quite a bit. It’s really intuitive if you are good with shapes and you can make detailed and fairly precise models with it without much issue. I’ve made around 20 models in it at this point, some of which I’ve made public. If you want to just learn one program that will carry you into the deep end, I’d probably point you to freeCAD just because autodesk can be dickheads and aren’t above pulling the rug out from under you.
