looking for folks who have or had a #nest#mattress before. i love mine but need a firmer bed at this point. nest discontinued (alexander hybrid foam and coils) mine and the closest comparison is double the price. any recs for similar mattresses? i can’t do foam only.
Sunbirds are back to my #balconynest two days in a row! This one seems to be deeply pondering at the old nest, which was made around the same time last year by another pair of Sunbirds. Do you think they will rebuild or salvage the nest for another location?
My question is how do they know the nest is here? Are these the babies that flew off the nest and came back cos they remember where it was?
Who has a #Nest#Doorbell battery version? How the hell do you re-engage the magnet that holds it in place? I know I've done it before but nothing works
Anyone got #Nest cameras? Are they really worth the extra price PLUS the seemingly necessary paid subscription?
I don't doubt the video quality is superior to my cheapo Kasa ones, and being able to see them in the google home app sounds really nice but...I'm not sure what could justify me paying the sub on TOP of already expensive cameras.
@rockerest Currently, what is represented by the & selector whether it’s implied or explicitly used will be wrapped in :is(). You can read more about that in the current draft of the CSS Nesting Spec here: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-nesting/#nest-selector
My brother texted me “what smart dimmer should I get?”
Little did he know he kicked off a multi-hour chat about Matter, Thread, LAN control, Nest, Google Home, Zigbee, hubs, border routers, controllers, HomeKit, IKEA TRÅDFRI, and XKCD 927.
Our boiler flipped the electrics yesterday, and lost all power to the heating and hot water.
Once we managed to get electricity back, we are getting hot pipes internal to the boiler, but everything is cold south of the heat pump. Said heat pump is also leaking black gunk.
We have no hot water or heating - but the #nest thermostats think everything is fine.. just never get to temp.
There was this time when some birds started a nest on our window, but it was so precarious that I decided to take the whole thing and put it in a box.
It worked and soon enough there were two eggs and then two more birbs that grew up and flew away.

Very happy this is finally getting mainstream media attention.
Who uses #GoogleHome? It doesn't seem to consistently ring all my devices, seeming to favor my phone instead. Really want my #nest doorbell to ring every Google Home device in the house since I don't know where I'll be when the door rings
Turkse tortel in onze enorme hazelaar. Plekje is veilig, maar is dat nest wel veilig genoeg? Looks like a disaster waiting to happen. 😬 #Tortelduif#Nest
With two nests ringed this morning the 2023 Babbler season comes to a close! Glad to end on a good note, and wishing these little monsters good luck in the coming weeks 🥰
I posted this photo a couple of weeks ago. I said that this was a cardinal nest outside our front door. I was mistaken, I got a good look at both the male and female birds tending this nest. They are brown thrashers (Toxostoma rufum). Cool!
Saw some fledging sparrows. Earlier all but one of the birds had left the nest. But I guess they came back for a rest and a snack. The nest is looking crowded!
Earlier today, I had to regenerate the authentication credentials because they’d expired. It was a faff, and I even revisited trying Home Assistant in case the plugins had found a simpler way of resolving the problem Google has created - no, was my finding.
Stumbled upon Starling Home Hub. A seemingly expensive (for what it is) but very simple plug n play method of integrating Nest stuff into HomeKit. Wondering if any of my tootsphere have invested in one? Is it any good? Shipping to the UK adds another 25% to the price, and I can’t afford to spend £105 on a whim!
I know Matter is on it’s way, but it’s not going to be retrofitted to older Nest products, and I don’t intend on replacing almost a dozen cameras or four thermostats just to get HomeKit support!
When setting a timer with #Siri or #GoogleAssistant, on your #smartphone, #HomePod, or Google #Nest device, there is no need to use the phrase “set a timer for…” Just invoke your digital assistant and tell it the number of minutes or seconds you want:
“Hey Siri, 2 minutes,” or just hold down the side button on your #iPhone and say “two minutes.”
The same applies to #Google Assistant. “Hey Google, 30 seconds.”
I spent some time again catching up with Huginn's and Muninn's not-so-baby-anymore ravens today (which we've named Azarath, Metrion, and Zinthos). Azarath is, we think, the firsthatched, and is a particularly funny, talky, precocious wonder bird.
In these pictures, e and eir siblings are all listening to Mom and Dad (who are out of the frame, but just off to either side of the underpass keeping an eye on the adorable void trio and gossiping with them). #TeamCorvid#Raven#Nest#Oregon
How do I know if a birds nest is abandoned? Or what is it?
I was trying to hack back a duranta hedge to manageable height and discovered this #nest . I pruned around it, not wanting to disturb possible occupants, but also hoping that the missing branches makes it a less appealing site.
That was a few months back. I'd ultimately like to finish the pruning job (but that hedge is non native/semi-invasive, scrawny and already awkward on the ladder)
Probably 4m from the ground so I can't see in. Are nests reused? Can I remove it? Or do i just wait a few years till it rots away? I feel like a 90s cartoon developer-villan!
