Great success, sushi and wine for lunch. In the mall by 12:30 and home and done by 5pm feeling good about my haul.
I swear every attractive female magically appears at the malls this time of year, makes shopping a little more tolerable

Filled a large crack that was catching the gate wheel

Tried to make the Ring make the inside bell ring. If I cross the wires, it rings. Pushing the button still doesn't

What am I doing this weekend?

The same thing I do everyday - whatever I want!

Oh yeah, I did mention that I'm retired on some other thread.

It was available and it was new. All of the desired nVidia stuff such as the 3080 appeared to be shipping from China, with no guarantee it was a new card.

I've been spending part of my two-week holiday weekend evaluating the open-source Home Assistant as a possible replacement for my current home automation setup. For each thing that it does well, it does two things stupidly.

FYI, BMW ConnectedDrive integration is included in the Home Assistant devices. I can see the odometer on my i3, the current charge state, that's it's plugged in, and even lock/unlock the doors. Sadly, this will all be going away in a month or so, when the 3G cellular networks are shut down leaving many of us with no telematics connections.....

Have you ever tried tracking a car? I've heard it's fairly inexpensive.

Meeting with 2 of my mentees. Providing pointers for upcoming interviews. How important it is to develop strong interpersonal skills, eye contact, don’t slouch, speak clearly — AND DONT BE AFRAID TO SAY “I DONT KNOW”.

They are outside in 0° weather and making a TikTok video. Does that answer your question?
