Any time I've been to California, if it dips to like 68° you see all the restaurants with outdoor dining turning on their infrared heaters

Oh no... And I was so excited when I saw my garage had finished and painted walls and ceiling...

#

And the wall between the garage and the rest of the house is full of wood chips...

#

Apparently it's NBD if they put the proper fire retardant treatment on it

#

But, yeah, the fact they went out of their way to insulate that wall isn't a good sign

forest edge
#

never seen wood chips insulation but have heard it used in attics. insulating the wall between the home and garage makes perfect since. mine has it

last cedar
#

I have sawdust insulation in the loft, it needs adding to

forest edge
#

you know wood chips are like the worst insulation you could have outside of nothing at all right?

#

you would get a better R value throwing old clothes into your loft

shrewd veldt
#

Are you sure it's not cellulose?

last cedar
#

It is sawdust, house was built in 1943/44, was very common

#

Has 20cm at the moment, adding 30cm of cellulose on top of it

#

I hear raccoon fur is a good insulator

hey that's what we could do.. ship @last cedar racoon fur. everyone get your guns!

I wish cat fur was good for something. My cats generate a ton of it

Don’t you guys think this sort of thing would be really cool if properly “prompt engineered”?

#

Like based on events, what would the ideal house respond with?

#

Wow, I then telles it “Sarah turned off the music”, and the “Sarah left for work” and “Sarah came back from work”, and it now didn’t suggest to turn on music when she gets home, it learnt from her habits.

#

This has potential!

#

It probably wouldn’t be very good today, but give it a few years (or months at the rate things are going) and this sort of thing could be easier to implement!

I had two integrations that just would not work all of a sudden and no amount of reinstalling and deleting files from the config directory was working. Something was wrong in a place that was beyond my knowledge, because even restoring the backups I had after wiping it out would recreate the same problem

So square one. Which isn't the worst because there was some cleanup I had to do anyway. But I'll be setting more frequent backups after this lol

on the subject of longevity, I just finally replaced the batteries in my weather station that had been running non-stop for 5.5 years (and was still running)

The Air model, specifically. The Sky model eats batteries

forest edge
#

with the exception of temp and the humidity that comes with that, i just couldn't figure out any reason to track any other weather stuff

night zodiac
#

I really wanted to set one up on the building next door because it is fairly open and I wanted to track wind

#

my whole city does not have anything online to track wind speeds

#

the weather station is at our airport and it does not measure it

forest edge

find that hard to believe

night zodiac
#

well, it is not exposed

#

It has been a couple of years, I should look

#

why not just use the data from like openweathermap?

let me look

#

I live on the very edge of town against the fields so anything within town would be very inaccurate. let me see this.

#

i mean there is going to be slight variations but nothing drastic

night zodiac

if it's on a tower it would be fine

oh, I just misunderstood what it was. This should be accurate. I think my airport tracks it now

do you, like, live in The Windy City?

how would they know?

I was thinking it was people's home weather stations

I am going to put up a small metal shed next spring so I can bbq and use my smoker in peace. being against this field is mean sometimes when you plan dinner

WeatherUnderground used to source their weather from home weather stations, but then IBM bought them, killed the API, and drove everyone away

night zodiac
#

the airport in town finally supports wind. I'm not sure how long. I'm right next to it though and we share the same field. I lived in the middle of town forever and never noticed wind. Now wind is an enemy.

#

Just within the last couple of years ago I was talking to the people next door about how I wanted to put a weather station on their building because the airport didn't have it exposed. They were excited because they wanted to know the wind too, lol. They brought up the airport not showing wind online and I was happy I wasn't the only person.

#

The guy that runs the airport actually came to my house one day and started knocking on my door while I was in a meeting. Instead of leaving after the first knock and waiting, he knocked longer and harder a few times so I go to the door and he starts trying to talk to me about some shit he's running for in town. I cut him off in a not so friendly manner and told him I was working and closed the door. It was like at the height of the pandemic and dude was going door-to-door interrupting people. It's cool they got a new weather station though, lol.

#

I thought my house was on fire or something. He was determined to get someone to open that door.

Investigators recently uncovered new information that turned their focus from a missing persons search to suspicions that Ana Walshe may have been killed, including her husband’s internet record showing searches about dismemberment and “how to dispose of a 115-pound woman’s body,” according to two law enforcement sources briefed on the investigation.

Why what's the issue?

forest edge

well i have 6 cameras out there. I can't stream all 6 at once so I have to cycle through them. the only way I can do that while keeping the data low is by sending snapshots instead of actual video

tidal bronze

In the Farm?

forest edge
#

yea sending that feed back to me here in town

tidal bronze

No LOS?

I have to keep the data low enough so that when I want to view live video there is enough data before the throttle cap for me to do so every so often

i haven't tried updating yet

DOOOOOIIIIIIIT

#

I haven't tried powercycling to see if that helps

forest edge
#

does whisker even have a changes blog or anything

static schooner
#

I looked and couldn't find anything. most I could find are some recommendations to update the firmware in response to some issues

#

It's funny that they have "ESP" in there. I'll bet it has one, since the Wifi has a OUI of Espressif

forest edge
#

you would think a company leaning more and more onto app control they would have a public changelog

@static schooner they are esp chips. atleast the LR3 was

One of my cats still hasn't quite figured out how food gets in the bowl of my feeder robot without me putting it there. I think she thinks I'm gaslighting her

#

No, really, this is the same damn food you were eating before, and it's already there!

I have to stick my fingers in it and move it around before she'll eat it

#

my LR4 has been working fine. curious what this firmware update addresses

static schooner
#

they update a lot. and now you can update in HA, when it actually works

forest edge
#

4 cats per machine. first time i seen them add a number to the LR's

#

just read it on a ces article

#

Litter-Robot can fit up to four cats
would get pretty tight in there 🙂

i'll update HA tonight and see what it says

#

they are suppose to release the LR camera here soon too

static schooner
#

At first I thought that HA was doing it wrong, but the app does the same thing

forest edge
#

what does it do? pop up a notification?

#

I saw a reply on Twitter calling them out for their "late 2022" feature advertising, they said they're still working on it

#

like any other update

forest edge
#

i am a firm believer of if it ain't broke, don't touch it so i hope it don't annoy me lol

static schooner
#

well, I was having issues with it, so that was my motivation. Now I'm not, so maybe the strategy worked

#

and now I just have FOMO

forest edge
#

yea but didn't you say it worked before with the lower litter?

#

so really, you can't be sure right? lol

static schooner
#

I think it's gotten better even since then, but that was important

#

knock on wood, i've only ever had the one issue

static schooner
#
