Yes sorry, I did mean algae. All the coffee makers I think of have a black plastic tank. Some have a little window to see the water level.

Why did they make it a clear tank? Thats designed to breed mold. Wow.

1/2 to 3/4 of my drives are from server parts deals, only had one of them give me issues and I think the issue was the SATA cable I had. I have several servers.

They are used drives, but I only paid about $100-125 each. Keep watching their site and things go in and out of stock all the time. I wait until they have a good price.

I had to use the Reolink app and it generates a QR code that programmed my camera. But after setup I can use HA to control the camera, move it, zoom, etc.

One of my best uses for home assistant is fine tuning the fridge and freezer temperatures.

At one point the fridge was not cycling and just running the compressors nonstop. I was able to adjust it so it cycles properly and stays within proper temperatures.

I also use it to monitor temperature and humidity inside and outside, cloud patterns, sun set and sun rise times, monitor power use and all my batteries and charge status (off grid). And will keep adding more and more. Hoping to some day monitor my water tanks that will collect rain water soon.

All this and it only consumes maybe 3 watts for all the smart stuff.

Before I moved we used it to have automatic lights in some rooms, and when someone goes in front of the driveway camera all the lights in the house changed color to let us know. That alone was a life saver.

I tried to use AI to help me code, it only gave me trash.

I had one of those cameras maybe 20 years ago, it took really good pictures. I used to carry it with me everywhere and always looked for artsy stuff to take pictures of.

I read that he has his giveaways, but he keeps it or the person that won is his friend or family or someone close.

When I was in middle school, we had rows of lockers and a large shower room with multiple shower heads.

I would change from the PE uniform into the school clothes at my lockers, never once did I shower naked in front of all the others. wtf. They had no privacy at all.

I think some card skimmers can go INSIDE the pump, so you won’t even see any evidence.

“Programmed by man”? But didnt they say Microsoft was 30% AI code or something like that.

I was welding outside the shipping container, going to make a mount to hold solar panels.

I knew this was a possibility, but I didn’t think anything was behind where I was welding. I was wrong lol

It’s very important to have fire extinguishers… I had to use mine yesterday! Lost a lot of good board games.

Luckily I caught the fire right when it started or I would have lost almost everything I own.

The Indian in the cupboard? But I don’t remember if he was a toy or not.

I just wonder if plex will ever sell the list of movies and IP address of everyone. Many people have the ARRs to auto download, even stuff still in theaters. What good is a VPN when plex knows your email and IP.

This was mine a few weeks ago (but upside down)

lol and 2 months later I’m making gravel for the driveway.

Wow thank you! There is a few ice cream parlors in town.

That’s a good price! Congrats on the find.

Wow that’s a really good price!
