But here’s my number

I’m currently looking at setting up Reolink cameras on a homeassistant setup.

Not sure if it perfectly meets your requirements, but it should be ad free and closed system.

I used 1/2" thick puzzle mat, which was plenty to keep things floating. I used a 3" hole saw, but only cause I had it already (ran it backwards so the teeth wouldn’t grab and tear the mat.)

A yoga mat would probably do ok, but I had to add a little bit of weight to the corners to stop the mat from flipping up in the wind (see previous post) so the yoga mat might not be able to support that extra weight.

If you didn’t need the cookie cutters anymore, you could probably put a board on top of one and smack it with a hammer to cut circles in the yoga mat, but it also may not work. You’d have to experiment a bit.

We’re using LECA as a substrate to keep the plants in there, but I think gravel would probably work as well, or possibly better. (the extra weight would likely help stabilize things)

Falcon 9 never had an abort with crew onboard, while Soyuz has.

Not sure why SpaceX is in this group, except “cause musk”, since they’re objectively the best rocket company out there.

The rest are obvious, but the Falcon 9 is the cheapest, and most reliable rocket.

Call the fire department, they have detectors that they can use to look for gas leaks and other things that can set off a detector.

You can also call your gas provider. One of those two should be able to track it down, it could be a lot of things, but two different smoke detectors going off in the same location is a huge red flag.

Best case, you have something kicking up fine dust, worst case, you have a smouldering electric fire in your wall somewhere.

Don’t panic, but also do not ignore this.

How about a 1% tax for every 100lbs the vehicle weighs.

They didn’t destroy anything, the paint can be removed without ruining the site, and they brought more visibility than sitting around with signs.

I don’t have a problem with this.

There’s a lot of quality of life issues with the first two games. Plenty of room to make just a couple UI changes while keeping the rest of the game the same.

Too bad they don’t have the original source to work from, because they’re basically going to have to remake it from the ground up just to make a couple minor changes, and that’s just not worth it.

I use my plunge saw for so many things, BUT it does have limitations. I struggle making long narrow rip cuts, and repeatable cuts can be difficult without an MFT style workbench.

It can be a lot safer, cleaner, and easier than a table saw, ESPECIALLY for large panels, but it can’t entirely replace a table saw.

I do agree with this comment, and the 10 minute workshop YouTube channel has a lot of great tips on using a plunge saw (and recommendations on less expensive versions), but just be aware that it’s not a 1-1 replacement.

IF you have enough for a “full size” shop, including workbenches, a table saw, etc. Then I recommend Steve Ramsey (Woodworking for Mere Mortals). He has a lot of projects and shop tips for people just getting started. He also has a website that has a constantly updated buy list for how to build a shop on the cheap.

IF you are tight on space, but still want power tools, then Peter Millard (10 minute workshop) is a UK woodworker that does a lot of cabinetry and custom builds in a small basement UK shop. It’s really nice, and he even has a series of projects where he starts with just some super basic tools, and then makes slightly more complicated stuff every week.

IF you want to try your hand at a no power tool shop (which can still be expensive to buy the stuff), then Paul Sellers is a great instructor. Most of his videos assume you don’t know anything and are just starting out.

Finally, Stumpy Nubs is a great channel for just general info, shop tips, and safe handling of tools. Just beware that he slips in a lot of “Just buy this one last thing from my affiliate link and it’ll solve all your problems.”

Wood Whisperer, Tamar at 3x3 Custom, Lincoln St. Four Eyes, Izzy Swan, and a bunch of other channels are a lot of fun too, but most of them have moved into more of a “watch me make this awesome thing with my quarter million $$$ shop.”

The easiest way to learn how to design furniture is to copy existing designs, then tweak them slightly to better fit your style. After a while, you’ll learn how to incorporate different designs into a nearly original piece.

Copy copy copy until you understand what you like, and what works functionally.

How do you set this up to forward properly? Do you use different domains for different services? like plex.example.com?

I currently have nginx set up to forward based on port, which is fine for me, but it could be a little better.

Finland had a lot of success with similar programs. Glad to see it’s catching on.

It’s a law, it can be changed by another vote. Even if it was in the constitution, they could just amend it.

It was an interesting workaround, and just changes the conversation for the next bill.

In general, technology gets cheaper for better products over time. Short term that’s not always true, but the longer timescales you look, the better is it for consumers.

A year or two is a long time, and probably worth waiting.
