I’ve been to lots of American airports and the one thing they all have in common is lots of side doors and back hallways.

I experienced this firsthand last week when I watched live as congress voted to hold the Clinton’s in criminal contempt of Congress, then failed to see a single news outlet publish the information. Feels like I’ve been gaslit.

Great, so you’re already halfway there! You may be right on the temp sensor and the gas detector would probably be spotty too. I was thinking you could glue some magnets to the knobs and use a hall effects sensor nearby to map their position, but that would take some tinkering and I personally haven’t done anything like that.

But you mentioned you already have a camera pointed at it, you could add Frigate to Home Assistant and use object detection to notify you about events such as ‘knob turned’ or ‘panel glowing’ for flame detection or even just have it compare snapshots every x minutes and notify you of any change at all. Then you still always have the camera for visual backup as well.

Definitely don’t have to take anything apart. If you can’t use a smart plug on the outlet, A zigbee temperature sensor mounted above or near the range would do the trick. There’s also methane/gas detectors.
If you’ve never used Home Assistant, it’s open source and completely local, and super easy to get going. You can automate nearly everything, so getting phone notifications or persistent temp reminders would be a breeze. Let me know if you have questions about that part. I’m by no means an expert, but I’ve been slowly automating everything in my house and it’s been great.

Every confession is a confession too, and they’ve come out and said it multiple times.

Maybe someone mentioned this, but I’m sure there’s a million ways to tackle this task through Home Assistant and a cheap sensor. That way you get passive notifications instead of having to actively check.

Been feeling this lately. Not so worried about if my comment in the work chat would be considered weird. They all know I’m weird already, may as well say what my weird little brain wants to say.

“Why don’t you pursue a diagnosis?”

It looks pretty AI.

They would never admit to the play store malware problem.

No pictures? :(

As far as fun goes, unless you like tinkering it’s just consumerism with extra steps. Don’t buy one for funsies.

But for functional prints and being able to replace small parts and bring your ideas to life, they’re great.

I don’t agree that tech companies need to put up walled gardens to protect people from themselves, but ‘what scams’ is insanely disingenuous. Obviously the scams where people, usually elderly, are walked through the process of enabling third party apps so the scammer, posing as a bank or other trusted institution, can then install malicious apps. If you’ve really never heard of that then I think you need to step outside of your bubble a bit more.

One day wait period to enable installing third party apps. Afterwards no extra wait time or verification.

Headline is a little misleading. There is a one day waiting period when you enable installing third party applications. After that you can install them indefinitely. It’s to stop active scams. I agree it’s BS, but it’s a lot less BS than I was expecting and what the headline/comments are making it out to be.

I actually haven’t seen the remake/continuation (though I hear it was good and cancelled too soon), but the original with Scott Bakula was a great sci-fi series with a full run. It’s episodic, as all TV was then, so beyond the first and last episodes you can really watch them in any order. I believe the clip is from one of the first few episodes though.

Quantum Leap is next in your queue.

I can see your reasoning, but I don’t see how with no sunlight and scorched earth, more land dedicated to growing food that won’t grow on it is helpful. In that situation only indoor hydroponic operations stand a chance and only as long as they can get clean water and maintain power.

Throwing bananas away doesn’t help us when we can’t grow anything.

But the question is “what do you get when you multiply seven by nine?” So really they’re just making things worse.
