Is there any reason to own 2 grills?

I was gifted a Weber Summit 420 in great condition as part of an outdoor patio furniture set I got at an estate sale.

I already own a Napoleon Rogue 525.

Besides the side burner on the Weber, is there any reason to keep both?

Gifted this Weber Summit, but already have a grill. It is in great shape, natural gas and propane adapters. Trying to sell, but nobody seems interested. Why?

I love this grill, but already have a grill. This one works great.

Had a yard sale, put $25 on it, literally no interest. Posted on fb marketplace, no interest. Yeah the burner area is a bit dirty, but it is otherwise pretty clean and rust free.

I just want the space back and it to get some more life.

Gifted an iPad that is locked/registered. Old owner is defunct and abandoned company. It is ewaste right?

Just what the title says. I was gifted a 6th gen iPad that was part of some bankruptcy liquidation. Fired it up and it is locked and registered.

I am assuming it is ewaste as there is no way to contact an email that doesn't exist anymore right?

Any scrap value in this?

And no, I didn't steal it lol, I already have too many devices. Just seems a shame to recycle it.

Another Dawn soap post (Costco). Same size, but different ingredients. (old, new)

Bought these 3 years apart or so at the same Costco (forgot I had the old bottle). Looks like ingredients changed. Why is the first ingredient now denatured alcohol?

I am making this post because general searching and the wiki it was not obviously clear that these 4 small screws can cause the same problem as the often mentioned 3 screws on the front of the heater. I tightened everything, or so I thought, and still had unwanted brims, poor layer quality, and what seemed random skipping. Extruding was fine, but the instant printing started, the clicking resumed. Did cold pulls, swapped the hotend (which actually solved the problem for a few months), but still had the problem. I tried multiple filaments as well.

To find the 4 screws, first remove the hotend, then the three screws holding the heater in place (careful not to rip out the wires), gently pull out the heater and expose the back of it.

and then tighten the 4 screws (heater may be black/gray).

Hopes this helps someone.

Just got done re-flashing multiple Emporia Vue2 devices as the April update took them offline and the only way to get them back was to physically remove them from breaker boxes (a real PITA).

Everything is fine with 2026.3.0, but it got me wondering if I could add a safety stop by setting the max version so it does not upgrade on accident when I upgrade other devices. Looking at the docs I see min_version, but max_version does not exist?

Is there any way to do this?

(and yes, I am aware of Fleet, but I would like a way to do this via an esphome flag/config)
