LIVE: Benjamin Franklin Parkway closed due to heavy police presence

Lots of cops.
A lot of white shirts maybe he shot a cop. They said he was shooting in the air and maybe pointed at cops

Some one said they saw them shoving some one in the back of cop car and drive off rapidly.

More gripes with the new Apple TV plex app

Maybe this is tv beta is thing or the new plex app.

Besides the crap factory of a back button operations
I used to be able to play music and brows a library. Can’t do that any more the second you exit out the music stops
Maybe I want music playing while I make a play list.

God I like change but not when you muck it up and make the experience worse.

Blue ridge Itinrary

A few weeks ago, I posted about doing the blue ridge again for my five-year

So this is what I have worked out
Oct 11: start our trip for my NEPA location, enter aroundRoanoke, to Mabry Mill and Groundhog, ending in Fancy Gap, where we have a place till the 14th; on the 12th, either we will spend all the time inside our stay or cumberland knob /music center / Mount Airy, maybe? We will see what the weather calls for, and same for the 13th, depending on the weather: Highland State Park, do the rhododendron trail, maybe see some wild ponies. finger crossed,

Check out the 14th and head further down BR. I know some of it is closed past here; I have planned the detours ( but hoping some of it just opens when I get there; will check before leaving)
We check in ashville lodeg this day till the 16th
But I should be able to get to the Linn Cove Viaduct heading this way and maybe get on Grandfather Mountain if time permits. And check into our resort,

We're skipping Biltmore and doing the Japanese mountain spa in Asheville
Hit up Craggy before we head back north up the highway

What y'all think?
(Gas and food stops have been baked into the drive)
I also know it's peeper season, but our real anniversary is when most of the BR is closed for the season, so we're doing it a month ahead. And a tad bit warmer weather, I hope, but we will pack for cold events

New additions to the family

What a lucky day!

They were gifted to me! From a friend!
But I do count 39 x14Tb enterprise sas and 3x 2tb enterprise ssds each with 32gb of ecc ddr4 (and what looks like one cpu)
Year 2019.

I was just complaining to him drive prices and I wish I had bought spares for the inevitable failure Last year in April when i bought my last drives. Today would cost me 4 times as much to replace a single drive. He provided double my current storage instantly

Now I need a bigger server rack. 24u is now to small with everything else

Working on getting one for free from work with my own decomm work.

Now that we moved to cloud sip , our onprem pbx is ewaste and the rack is in decent shape.

Fuck that power bill.

Also yeah screw that electric bill. Need to open up a coal mine

Weird pipe thing coming out of the ground

I've driven past this many times and I've no idea what it is or what it's for. There are these two big pipe things coming out of the ground, each capped off. Several inches in diameter. There's several feet of a gap between them. I assume you could remove the caps on then and place another pipe piece between them, but I've no idea what that would accomplish or why you'd do that. I don't recall ever seeing something like this elsewhere.

If it helps, it's right next to an intersection. It is also in front of a tire shop. This is in Utah, United States.

Thanks in advance!

I swear this spot is purgatory for bikes

The first two is the “new” bike that showed up last week after the old lime color one vanished after it had been there 7 months. Now it haven’t moved In two weeks

While “new” one has all its “parts” its rear derailed looked fracked

Our five year anniversary trip

This year is our five year wedding anniversary,
Pre text for our honey moon, we did pigeon Forge Gatlinburg, Smoky Mountain Railroad with a honey moon lodge bed and breakfast in Asheville and then drove up to Blue Ridge from Asheville to the foot of the Shenandoah over two days and then drove back to the northeast. Highway from there this was like 2nd week of November and almost everything was closed but still gorgeous.

This year again, Asheville will be at the end of our trip, but this time I want to start/go further down the Blue Ridge and I’m just trying to gain an idea of where to start October 11th so things along the way till we’re in Asheville by 4pm check-in on the 14 at our lodge outside Asheville. And we will leave on the 16th and drive direct home

I know this can be peeper season. So having to get off to find lodging is fine as long as it doesn’t add too much time .

So what’s good south of Asheville that we can start at.
We have an event on the 10th otherwise I would start then. But I can leave early as 3am on the 11th to get some where o. The br south of Asheville (it’s about a 9-10 hour drive to Asheville for me) my wife can extend the drive another 5 hours I have driven to Orlando in a single day before. So endurance is not a factor

I’m a renter but I can swap out my thermostat, looking for the “best”

I don’t want it relying on cloud connected services so if isp/aws goes down I can’t change my temperature.
Are the Honeywell ones the best?
I also want some indoor environmental sensors.
I don’t have any wave or zigbee hubs or what ever they are called but I could get one if needed, (might need a repeater since the HA runs as a vm on my unraid host in the basement of my unit, (going to move it off the host and onto its own purpose built hsmall form factor pc,

Or they can all work via WiFi but I know that can be a bigger drain on battery for the device

People really think that they’re special don’t they?

Also, how effective is laser vision I know I’ve made multiple reports with it. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen any violations come out of it.
