Excellent, we have electricians in to do the wiring for our new heat pumps, and they’re also going to move an old 220V 30A dryer outlet that’s no longer used to the garage, so I’ll be able to charge my #Rivian at better than 1 kW on the 110V, 15A outlet that was previously the only one close enough to the driveway to reach (the garage itself is stupidly not actually accessible to anything larger than a side by side…

@joshourisman I'm also running on a 30A circuit (24A / 5.6kW charging) and it's way more than adequate for my needs. Granted, I don't drive a lot either.

But it's definitely informed me that, when I buy my own house and have a circuit put in for this, I'm not going to fret over maxing out, heh.

We were out of cornmeal, so my mom used masa to make cornbread, and… this is the best cornbread I’ve ever had? Incredibly moist, and fluffy. Almost cake-like! Not sure if it was just a 1 to 1 substitution, or she found a different recipe.

Edit: masa harina, to be more accurate…

@joshourisman I…might have to look into this.

It’s extremely important to make clear what Trump is guilty of.

Hush money to a porn star is a small part of it.

He committed fraud for financial and political gain with the intention to commit election interference.

It’s about what he did to try to steal the 2016 election. It’s about how he shouldn’t even have sat in that office in the first place.

Does anyone know if there exists such a thing as a recessed USB receptacle that can fit in a (US) 1 gang electrical box, that would allow me to flush-mount a USB-powered device, so that the cord would just be hidden in back going into the receptacle? The application is that there’s already a box with 110V power to it, where I want to do this.

@bedast@squirrelmob.com avatar

@joshourisman Would a 110v receptacle in the recessed box with integrated USB ports be viable? I’ve seen various configurations of this.

bedast,
@bedast@squirrelmob.com avatar

@joshourisman I went to check my recessed receptacle over my fireplace (yeah someone who lived here clearly hung their TV over the fireplace…) thinking it was a recessed box with a standard receptacle behind it, but no, that’s the whole receptacle recessed. So I was incorrect in thinking you could just put something else back there.

There seem to be some solutions around, but not single gang. Probably not a standard cutout at all. Might need some DIY I guess.

Ugh, having issues with my Zigbee network after some updates. Not sure if issues with Zigbee2mqtt or issues with the coordinator.

Since ZHA has had such big advancements recently, I'm now getting tempted to migrate back, and maybe see if it does a bit better.

@po3mah :latest on docker version of z2m (did a pull yesterday, rechecked today), with SLZB-06 coordinator. Initially was using networked mode on the coordinator, but switched to USB mode to see if that fixed things.

Still getting tons of timeouts, late responses to actions, etc.

I think it’s the coordinator having issues. Can’t figure out to get debug logging from it for now. Looking at maybe getting a UZG-01 to see if that improves things.

bedast,
@bedast@squirrelmob.com avatar

@po3mah Yeah, this basically started with firmware updates, lol. I’ve switched between latest and dev firmwares on the SLZB-06 and getting no changes. Also tried switching Zigbee firmwares.

bedast,
@bedast@squirrelmob.com avatar

@po3mah I ended up relocating the coordinator. There's a bit of metal around where it was mounted so I figured I'd elevate it over all of that and see what happens.

It seems the mesh is reassembling a bit better with this and things are behaving better.

If this ends up being the solution, it's just weird that it suddenly became an issue after several months.

Did you know BMI is a dumb ratio?

I don't mean the concept itself is dumb. I mean it's literally a ratio involving weight and height. That's it. No other context.

I had a gym rat of a boss with 11% body fat with an obesity BMI due to dense muscle.

I guarantee you Kim Kardashian, with her absurdly small waist line, but large butt and chest, has an obesity BMI.

Body composition is a way more accurate measure. BMI doesn't measure body composition, no matter what others will tell you.

@fraying I’ll have to give this a listen! Might be share-worthy in one of my communities.

@fraying One problematic statement I heard: “...lifestyle diseases, right, of like diabetes…”

It's interesting to hear the history of BMI, but they should be careful about labeling an entire class of complex diseases as a choice.

Upon finding out 99% of NYU protesters were indeed students, Republican Councilwoman Vickie Paladino decided they all have to die.

It feels like Democrats should stop helping these people in their war on students and higher education?

@gwynnion @Cyrus Wait, this isn’t a parody or something? She actually did call for their murder and to burn down (raze) the schools?

@Cyrus @gwynnion I mean this isn’t just a violation of xitter’s terms, it’s actually crossing the line into illegal. It’s not protected speech.

I know they’ve gone past dog whistling, but it still sucks to actually see it.

Any "what's wrong with Tesla" business story that doesn't mention that the CEO has taken a hard right into racist, fascist, eugenicist, conspiracy nonsense, creating a PR catastrophe that has turned everyone with a brain off the brand, while he tortures his vanity social media site like a child pulling the wings off a fly because he can, is just whitewashing for the sociopath.

It's not China. It's not "the market." It's all Elon.

@fraying He’s not even the founder. He’s barely a co-founder. He sued his way into that position.

He also didn’t found Paypal. This came about through some messy stuff after a merger.

And SpaceX may have been founded after a deal with Russia fell through.

Just an all around toxic person, really. Bullied his way into his fortune and leadership.

If Google is going to be aggressively fighting against ad blocking, they should be held to a far higher, potentially legal, standard for ensuring safe advertisements.

Because one of the really important reasons for using ad blocking is safety from scams and malware. And Google owns THE largest ad network, and it serves malicious ads every day.

Leeloo’s pet store trip was a success! Not only for the trip itself where she got some treats and a toy. But it was her first ride in her new seatbelt harness in the back seat instead of all the way in the cargo space!

She was having a blast!

All the excitement wiped her out. She stayed down the whole trip back home.

Happy Birthday, Leeloo!

Today is Leeloo’s 7th birthday!

She doesn’t know, yet, that she’s getting a car ride to the pet store. No one tell her. Let it be a surprise!

You know what’s hilarious about people complaining so much about digital only games purchases? Those same people keep buying them.

If the income is still incoming, the complaints become just noise.

If you truly hate online only digital only games purchases, stop buying them. Publishers don’t measure game popularity in how noisy people complain. They measure popularity in dollars.
