I think I have the same thing. Lime green patches throughout the yard. Real soft blades. Celsius knocks it back for a little bit but comes right back. Never produces a seed head.

Just this morning I went ahead and got a Udemy course on Claude Code, Cowork, and Chat. 15 hours total of content.

I did this after reading an article on X about Cowork and plugins. The summary of it was how using it as a smart file organizer (which I was dabbling in yesterday and was pretty impressed with) was the "junior version" of Cowork. It went on to describe the process of how to build plugins and skills to create your own assistant tailored towards your role in the industry.

It also went deeper on how to not only build those skills but then how to test them, what to do when something goes wrong, and your cadence of how often to make changes and what the timeline should look like for improvement. It was very interesting.

I have to assume at this point that Trump is doing his absolute best to separate any past actions as part of Epic Fury and any future actions as part of a new operation to get around the war powers time limit. He knows if it goes to vote, congress won't give him an extension so he has to make it absolutely clear that the previous operation has ended and anything else would fall under a different engagement, ultimately resetting the clock.

I bought a Grand Design Imagine 2400BH last year. My wife and I had always kicked around the idea of getting a camper because we have a lot of family that have them. We weren't in the market but couldn't pass up the deal that fell into our lap.

We have had an incredible time so far. We have 4 kids ranging from 10 to 1 year old. We all have a blast and the kids are constantly asking when the next trip is.

Pros:
- Quality time with the family (absolute #1 for us) and gets everyone away from a screen.
- You know exactly what you have and what you don't (you aren't relying on what is at a cabin/condo/ etc.).
- The camper community is massive and overwhelmingly friendly. You meet a lot of nice people while camping.
- Limited storage makes you realize you don't need half the things you usually bring.
- Cooking your own meals helps cut down on costs that would otherwise go towards restaurants.

Cons:
- Something will break, it's inevitable. Get good at fixing things yourself.
- Setup/tear down time makes long trips for a weekend not worth it.
- The extra fuel cost is real.
- The prep needed before you go camping isn't for everyone. Checklists are the best way to make sure you aren't forgetting anything.


In the end, if you aren't a DIY type of person who can't handle beginner to moderate repairs, I would say getting a camper isn't for you. I also don't advise people getting one if they are trying to save money.

If you are looking to create memories with your family and know your way around a wrench, the go for it. Half the fun is trying new places and letting your kids go nuts then sitting around at the end of the day laughing about all the goofy things that have happened.


Because of my profession, we can't use our camper from mid-February to April 15th (taxes) but it's still worth it for us. I just pulled the cover off my camper last weekend in preparation for our first trip of the season. My wife was hesitant at first but now she's so glad we pulled the trigger. We're planning a quite a few trips this summer and already have a Labor Day meet up with some family booked. We're also planning a Disney trip and staying at the Campgrounds at Disney early next year.

Dudes going to become a man in the first 10 minutes of episode 9 :lol:

Change out the breaker, see if that cures the problem.

Do this or you could swap out the breaker with a matching one to see if the issue travels to the new circuit.

If it does, replace the breaker. If it doesn't there's another issue.

As others have said, it all depends on your particular location and what channels you want to pick up. Some might be close enough to just use a cheap Walmart antenna to get the channels they need. Others might need to pick up VHF channels so the type/style of antenna they get is completely different. In general, your smaller antennas are made to only pick up UHF channels, which may end up being useless for you if the main channels you want to get are VHF.

I like TV Fool's signal locator because it gives you pretty much all the information you need to determine which antenna you need.

Here is a post I bookmarked a long time ago about mattress buying. It's another poster who used to sell mattresses.

Beauty rest is now trash. They are made in China. Avoid.

Simmons sucks. Made in China same as Beauty rest(same company). Avoid.

Sealy or Serta are the ONLY two brands I would touch at low to mid cost. That's it.

At upper end. Go Tempur. That simple. There is a reason every major retailer carries them. They have the lowest return rate in the market(by over 10 percent), and the lowest warranty claims(less than 2 percent of sold mattresses) despite having the best warranty in terms of full swap, at only 3/4 an inch of dip. The new Tempur beds have almost no pressure points. Its absurd to sleep on. I will never buy another type of bed.

The Meater Pro is nice, but it’s Bluetooth. It probably has a better app.

The RFX is a radio signal, no Bluetooth issues.

For the Meater, bluetooth isn't an issue IF you have a spare smart device laying around.

I paid the Meater to my iPad which will stay within range and check temp from the phone since your account syncs online. Makes it very reliable.

Not everyone has a spare smart device though.
