We did the phantom doorbell thing once when staying over at a buddy's house. The thing was, he lived in the country, and it was his parents' house, the one we were staying at. I don't think the parents even noticed. :banghead:

So I think we're at End of Life for my Laview. It started doing the phantom rings again when it got super cold in January (-15°F). And after a few weeks off, I got it working again, and another cold snap last night (+10°F), did it twice again. I'm going to look into how feasible the POE...

I almost bought one of those. I told myself it was unnecessary since I already have the dewalt saw.

I love my battery Dewalt 12" bar saw. I love it if I just need to cut a few branches that are the size of my wrist, give or take. I always feel guilty starting my gas chainsaw for one measly cut. But if I'm going to do more than that I use my Stihl.

Wait, that dude has a son who is 3? Isn't he in his 60's?

My blueiris machine is Windows 11 and now my home automation NUC is too. It seems to be fine. There's a few little oddball things I prefer 10 over, but I don't really use those machines very often. My home laptop and my work laptop are both 10 and I prefer to keep them that way. My old...

My daughter actually asked me that yesterday at the grocery store. I think it was technically a teenaged male "goth" but he had his nails painted. She was confused, and I just changed the subject!

Just a follow up, nearly a year later . . . I was never able to get anywhere with the Unifi and Android disagreement over VPN's. I ended up going the Tailscale route, by following this video I am having to use the Blueiris app, and I can't do anything else VPN-wise on my network. But I am...

I"m all for spiking the football on failed DEI stuff, but what's the deal with this? Isn't Lebron ponying up some of his own money to help his hometown?

I didn't listen to it live, but I love that clip. And I love Paul Harvey. ...good dAY!

Most of those things are what makes shooting fun! The smell and the brass flying, especially. You know you've had a good weekend when your shooting shoulder is sore. Kinda like having a roughed up thumb from catching too many largemouthes.

I kinda want that gun. We had a family NERF war last night; that could really up my game!

I also have an Amcrest PTZ, Amazon shows it as the IP2M-841EW. Been in the garage for 3.5 or 4 years now. My garage is 3 cars, so I put it in a spot that shows Stall 1&2, but can pan to Stall 3. I don't park anything in Stall 3, so I'm not super concerned with monitoring it all the time.

Just dump it on the gravel road. Helps keep the dust down, or something ;)

I've done that too. It seemed like some in this thread were not successful with this thing though.

Any update on this front? I saw some dude on reddit showing off his Echo Show 15 displaying UI3, and it looked awesome. Now I think I need one of these. Did anyone ever get it running? To be clear, I don't give a rats tail about the Amazon nature of this thing, just a big, touchscreen...

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I've also been unable to VPN in since I got my new phone last summer. I also have the Ubiquity USG Router and Android Phone situation. I'm definitely not a network engineer and stumbled through getting my Unifi stuff all situated. Assume that I'm happy enough...

As an Iowan I was happy to hear this at first, but I also worry about the repercussions down the road. I do think it'll get some kids out of bad schools and into better ones, but I also worry about what you said.

Yeah I'm not watching either of the videos. The thumbnails were enough :puke:

I think my Laview may have finally bit the wiener. Usually I can just cut the power for a few days and re-add to the app and I'm good for a few months. Tried it the other night and the app won't find it. I only had about 10 minutes to put towards it, so I need to try it again, for real...

Here in Iowa we had a red sweep. Likely all 4 house seats will now be red, and Governor and Senator stayed Red. Plus flipped some long time Blue guys in Treasurer, AG, and others. My county attorney is a new blue person, and she sounds nuttier than squirrel poop. But all in all, a good...

I assume Politico has been banned from Youtube and elsewhere? We can't have election deniers out there

Geesh, what a tease! :D

My dad sometimes carries a musical instrument in a rifle case. He had my mom embroider musical notes on the side, so as not to arise suspicion. He does get fewer weird looks when carrying a gun case to a church or nursing home!

That's the most disgusting thing I've ever read on the internet. Shame on Chik-fil-a!

How DARE you!

Well, on my current system, I bought a really nice PC for about $825. It pulls double duty as a Plex Server and other storage. ~$150 for an additional HDD ~$200 each on average for 6 cameras. ~$100 for the rack off craigslist ~$100 for rack accessories ~$200 for a Rackmount UPS ~$200 for a...

Yeah I had that too, but now with my new phone it just simply doesn't allow that type of connection.

Any wisdom here? Any Unifi and Android dudes out there?

I do worry about EMP but I'm pretty sure that stupid little thing isn't going to help at all.
