Came across an old 1982 vimto ad on my YouTube feed. Vimto is going to get you in the end. Or just Vim will?
Used to love it, especially in a milkshake.
What weird milkshakes did you make? Tried a Ribena Shake?
Caveat: But I can't stand it these days after the sugar tax and all the artificial sweeteners.
Hi All,
I have 2 old school Nest outdoor mains powered cams and an old school nest thermostat for central heating and hot water boiler. Not sure of generation but they're about 7 years or more old. I have a Nest subscription with that to get me I think 30 days of constant no gaps recording plus alerts.
I also have a newish Google cam indoors and battery outdoors one.
I keep getting migration requests from Google to migrate my Nest account as I have a paid Google account.
My concern is what I'd lose and what might break in the transfer?
Sorry if this is a dumb question. Nest thermostat came installed when we bought the house 6 years ago and I was already using nest cams at the old property.
What do you think my best strategy is as the Nest subscription is not cheap either.
Thank you
Politics aside we are looking forward to Eurovision. So I'm making some scran. I've made a special salsa, marinated the chicken with a homemade fusion spice rub, made some guacamole, manchego cheese ready, and some other food that probably has nothing to do with Europe. 😅
Special salsa: Chopped beef tomatoes, sweet french onion, red and green peppers, jalapenos, pickled green chillies, fresh coriander, lime juice, splash of tequila, pinch of salt, some of the pickling vinegar.
Fusion chicken marination: Smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, pinch of ground coriander, white pepper.
Back and forth to hospital at present. Long story. I'm not well but not high fat food related 😂. Figured I'd get a mid morning breakfast in the hospital visitor cafe up North. Not bad at all really. Tasted good for the money. No black pudding available but stewed tomatoes were. Fried Eggs had just run out. Otherwise I'd have splashed out to best part of 5 quid for a 7 item breakfast with an egg and an extra piece of toast 😅
Hiya 👋🏼
First post on the sub. Satisfying my all things crisps fetish. I sincerely hope these qualify for acceptance as crisps.
First time I have seen these and there were 2 other flavours but these were the only ones with a great taste award.
Found at a farm shop selling various hard to find foods (normally in ASDA, Tesco, Sainsbury). Couldn't resist even though they were over 4 quid. But the bag was relatively full and definitely a sharing situation in a single sitting. With dips, see later, you might even get 2 sittings although not quite in our case. 😅
Nice heat, similar flavouring to somewhere between a strong Bombay or Tandoori mix, with a lovely crunch. Texture is a little unusual but good. We've discovered a bonus by scooping up mango chutney, raita, plus lime pickle is extra lovely. But, lovely on their own too.
I'd definitely buy these again and even go out of my way to buy them.
Not looked into their charity commitment (bottom of bag) but if true that's a bonus.
Hiya everyone
Loving my dwarf3 scope.
I wondered though, is the dwarf capable of picking up transients?
A transient is usually a short lived flash in the night sky. Satellites and tumbling junk causing specular flashes when outside the Earth's shadow cone but also shiny sides on asteroids, and separately and rarely, stellar phenomenon.
If a flash is bright enough and even factoring the exposure dilution then it should be visible on the final output. I was thinking of star catalogue matching to then account for everything, leaving behind any transients. A few weeks of sky survey could be fascinating.
What I guess I was wondering is if any of the image processing inside the dwarf prior to any post processing would remove light sources that aren't persistent through the exposure or flag the snap in the stack as bad and not include it in the final merged stack?
Speculating at what other cool stuff I could do with the scope so no bother if this was a dumb question.
Thx very much
Hey everyone
New here. Had Hermes running for a few weeks. Shut down my Claw recently too. Using Hermes with Hindsight for memory management. All really good so far. Quality is very good and I'd sooner keep it that way. But... I'm burning through my OpenAI API tokens pretty fast. Using Codex 5.3. Probably getting through about 150 to 180 bucks a month.
My bro suggested I should sign up to the Codex monthly subscription as that would cost me a lot less than using the OpenAI API and provide access to better later versions of codex. Is anyone doing this? Any issues?
Hermes is running on an older isolated clean laptop from my main system and while I have got some small local models running previously in the 6GB of VRAM they were pretty slow and a little dumb. Even messed up on some simple Cron job execution. So it's really a need for cloud LLMs but with local hardware as I'm building a lot complementary stuff for blender 3D and connected SDR radios.
Looking for tips and discussion on what's working for you. Quality is my main aim but also finding a way to reduce costs without trading down on quality if that makes sense?
Thanks in advance.
Hi all
First thing first I've really enjoyed experimenting with OpenClaw since it was MoltBot etc. Dedicated an old laptop to it. Support from the redditors here has been great, you're a great bunch. Very helpful.
I don't know if this resonates with anyone but...
Frustrated at the last month or so of turmoil in the updates and what felt like constant breakages and babysitting I decided to install Hermes. Running in parallel to OpenClaw. Two bots so one could fix the other. Worked well as a strategy. Hermes did however seem more robust and effective than claw for my use cases, once configured correctly and which was a faff. I then upgraded Hermes with Hindsight memory management (see GitHub) and it was a revolution. You can run hindsight locally or cloud (paid). I had an obsidian solution running on claw which was better than the default but it's not in the same league as hindsight. In the end I wasn't using Claw at all. So I migrated what there was on claw to Hermes. And shut claw down.
I think we are in a competition on the Agentic AI front. In a couple of months I may be coming back to Claw or moving onto something else. It's about whatever is working for you and your use cases at the time.
In case of interest my use cases have been using telegram to set up Cron jobs to process news feeds, find weather windows for my telescope, build code for various AI and analytics tools for a quick look when I want explore something, Netlify deploys for showing and sharing cool stuff etc. Nothing earth shattering. I also use Claude Code for anything heavy or to turn a quick and dirty thing produced by Claw or Hermes into something decent when I'm away from home. Claude Code is however closing the gap between the Agentic AI bot solutions with it's various cowork and remote modes but I like to keep that separate from Hermes, and claw previously, running on their own isolated old laptop and own private GitHub repo and guest wifi.
Anyways just wanted to say thanks for the support. OpenClaw has been a great experience. Thanks for all the fish.
I may be back. 😅
Brit here. Love America. Many American friends.
I've had a few recommendations from my friends but they are of course a little biased to their own states, and are first to admit. 😂🙏
What and where should I visit that I haven't been to see already on many business and pleasure trips? I like culture, history, food and sightseeing.
Here's where I've been and seen a lot but absolutely not everything:
Boston. New Hampshire towns.
Washington DC. Florida - several places. Niagara - American falls. Chicago. Arizona. Almost all major places in California. Nevada.
Many thanks 👍
God Bless America.

Indoor node plus roof top solar node with high gain antenna. Mostly I see nodes out to about 30 to 40 miles. Typically 25 to 50 nodes.
Now and again, like the last 2 weeks I've seen nodes from the NW down to London, Cornwall and up as far North as Scotland. Plus nodes in Ireland and Norway. Over 100 nodes.
Probably a dumb question but is this due to folks on a plane with a node or something atmospheric related? It's pretty cool to see nodes so far away. Probably doesn't help with network performance from a collision perspective?
Anyone else seeing this kind of thing?
MQTT thingy is off BTW.
