    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    All you're going to do is send it to Andy. Then the tariffs will create a budget surplus, you'll get a check from that, and send it all to Andy. Except maybe for some gator food.

    SmartPSS Lite on a mac - trouble getting connected

    smartPSS Lite runs pretty well under Wine on Linux. I wonder if it would work with Wine on MacOS? The M4 chip certainly makes it less likely, but something called Rosetta supposedly built into the mac lets it run x86 code. Just thinking out loud. It could work, or turn into a big time rathole.

    Low-cost label maker

    If just numbers is ok, you can use the adhesive backed number labels from the electrical department at Home Depot, etc. For roll your own labels, Brother has at least a few low end models under $50.

    Flat Ethernet cable

    I'm not trying to be the forum police, it's that these posts really annoyed me. I went from grumpy to grumpier.

    Flat Ethernet cable

    I can't help thinking this post and another similar one busts the rules. "Businesses or individuals representing businesses are not allowed to post outgoing links, affiliate links or advertisements to their products / services or solicit members in any way whatsoever. This will be considered...

    Andy's NVR vs Blue Iris?

    Since I've been comparing use of BI's UI3 to smartPSS, I don't want to accidentally leave the impression that they're similar technology-wise, because they are very different. At a high level, BI's native interface is similar to a monitor connected directly to the NVR. UI3 is the rough...

    Andy's NVR vs Blue Iris?

    One last video attempting to show off how fast and easy it is to review and play trigger events on UI3. It's 89 seconds long and I readily admit somebody that knows what they're doing could have done a better job. I finally got the mechanical part down, using OBS studio. Another one of those...

    Coyote down... Sorta

    Thanks, and vice-versa. Definitely a life altering adventure.

    Trying SSD on BI

    The suggestion is wrong. The BI storage folder (BI-new) is the only thing on the big SSD (the E drive), everything else is on C:. I'm just reporting what I see, and without knowing BI and UI3 internals I wouldn't hazard a guess as to why. I rarely run the UI on the BI machine, using UI3 on...

    Coyote down... Sorta

    I have stage 4 metastatic lung cancer and as such pay attention to these reports. I've learned to take them with a grain of salt. My general conclusion is that there are cases where some unconventional treatment has worked or healing/remission has coincidentally occurred, then the story...

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    So hard sometimes to know if a post belongs here or in the joke thread. And none of them give a whit about the people they supposedly represent.

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    The lefties believe what they're told to believe and vote for who they're told to vote for. And not that many years ago they we're laughing about Trump, as were many conservatives.

    Money & Economics

    It's pretty obvious for anybody with brains that whatever is causing the rates to rise was baked into the system before Trump took office. Him shooting his mouth off too much makes for an easy target of TDSers. Every new home and business solar installation means fewer ratepayers paying for...

    Coyote down... Sorta

    We have coyotes too, but it's the gophers in the vegetable garden that ruin my life. The bigger chicken threat by me is foxes. They easily jump the fences that coyotes either can't or don't.
