The antišŸš«-derailmentšŸšƒ & threadšŸ§µ hijackingšŸ”« threadšŸ§µ ā‰

So I collected a bunch of x10 stuff. Iā€™ve had it for years, and Iā€™m not in a position to use it. Almost all of it new in box, some receipts from 1987 and 1999. Outdated, but should all still work, especially if youā€™re unable to physically mod your living situation.

If one of you wants to cover shipping, itā€™s all yours.

Getting the FlexUG4 and xG3 installed Wedā€¦

And my first name is Martinā€¦

Just realized, one of my co-workers may be quick witted enough to start calling me ā€œMartin Magnet-Handsā€

Iā€™ll have to get a second one for the other hand then I guess.

Heh, I caution against putting magnets in both hands. I did this and regret it. Devices canā€™t be trusted for spot navigation because of magnetometer issuesā€“you can watch the over all trend for direction of travel but you canā€™t just see what direction youā€™re facingā€¦ I need to remove the one in my left hand. Should we record it? :stuck_out_tongue:

:rofl: Yeah, I already have enough navigational issues, and have had a GPS nav unit try to kill me twiceā€¦

Thinking about getting my two blinkies removed actually, one is kinda buried and barely usable, the other is right up on the bone just behind a knuckle. It gets banged on everything

+1 on that, having a magnet free hand is necessary in many situations

I actually had this happen once driving in PA in the darkā€¦ told me to take an on-ramp to a highwayā€¦ it was a big 270 degree curve and Iā€™m goin around this thing at like 40mph and suddenly there is just a ā€œroad closedā€ sign across the whole on-ramp with no indication at the start it was closedā€¦ like it was so old and closed for so long like ā€œobviously everyone knows this on-ramp is closedā€ kind of thingā€¦ nearly shattered my ankle standing on the break pedal.

Hehe, I had an old Garmin GPS nav unit years agoā€¦ worked great in Minnesota. Took it with me to Florida for a couple weeks and not so good.

Trying to find a post office in Sarasota. First time it drove me into an apartment complex lot, wanted me to make a Right turn between two parking spaces and down the hill into a lake.

Second time (the next day) still trying to find a post office (picked a different one this time) told me I had ā€œArrived at my destinationā€ as Iā€™m crossing onto railroad tracksā€¦

Anybody know how to step around a news story paywall? LINK TO ARTICLE

Iā€™d pay for it, but itā€™s a typically scammy Gotchya! subscription racket and I wonā€™t encourage that crap.

P.s. Iā€™ve tried 12ft and wayback. Chatgpt would summarize for awhile, but then it got all squirrelly. Bard wonā€™t read past a paywall.

yeah annoyingā€¦ in the old days you could basically inspect and remove the CSS node covering the content but because of the reasons youā€™ve mentioned they now just donā€™t send the data to the client at all;

There might be some low security shit you could take advantage of to fool the server into sending the rest of the content, but thatā€™s beyond my paygrade :slight_smile:

and by extension, way past mine. Dang it. Thanks anyways!
