Futz me; at first I thought that's just back up for loss of normal power, but then I noticed that the exhaust flapper was up ......

I'm amused by $900 "crystal embellished" goggles. https://www.nordstrom.com/s/rad-refi...EOOnhDwBgS-QMw

It's fine, the generator runs on hydrogen. Possibly.

With more and more electric there's gonna need to be some charging stations way out in Bumfuck at some point, there's gonna have to be quite a few rigs like that^^ I bet. If there was solar and a battery in the loop it'd be pretty efficient and reliable.

I'd share a chair with her. Covid be damned.

We have a fixed position one around here on a long, sweeping curve with a 50mph speed limit. I've put some good numbers up on it.

Good times

I have a microcell tower because ATT cell service here sucks. If the power goes out in the house, even briefly, the microcell tower won't reset. The way I reset it is by pulling the power cord from the back of the unit and plugging it back in. This seems odd to me--that the way to fix a problem due to the power going out is to disconnect the power.

It's a function of some circuitry in the thing. I run into this with computer hardware sometimes. Power off AND remove the power cord for some period of time (POR). Especially true for brief outages. It is annoying and probably only makes sense to the EE that designed it.

My daughter is a bit of a SJW right now, particularly in the realm of gender equality. I’ve been preparing my son for the fact that he’s going to be mowing the lawn this year. He brought it up recently and asked why his sister doesn’t have to mow as well since (as she likes to point out) women can do anything men can do. I had no response and neither did his sister, so she’ll be joining him.
