Kirby, Sark and Debour have all won big games. Kirby may have beat you-know-who in one.

re: Bad Sequencers Inside AC unit

Ya so sequencer means main controller in the same way a doctor would say djxuvyduhrth carcinoma instead of ball cancer. He is going to throw parts at it the same way an auto tech would.
Take board to an electronics tech and find out what actually failed and how to fix it. This isn’t hard, you just have to bypass the people that think it is. It’ll likely come down to a single contractor where you would want to replace the wires and the contractor for that circuit but not throw darts at the entire system.

One of the safest things you can do. And it degrades in just a couple days to a week so you can replant quickly. Just make sure it’s actually glyphosate. The new roundup formulas don’t use it anymore.
re: What’s the best way to keep blackbirds off the feeder?

Finch feeder? We had those things build nests in all of our ferns this year. They’re nice birds but it’s a pain to water the plants gracefully instead of hosing them down.

I assume he meant controller. Akin to an ice box or a clicker.

Take it to an electronics tech who works on circuit boards all day everyday and he can tell you exactly what is wrong. Let an AC tech look at it and you’re screwed.

Can we just all admit that CBK likely has the lowest moral character of any FBS coach in history(given own actions, murderous alum) and he still hasn’t ever won a decent bowl game?
re: Documentary on Texas BBQ
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/13/25 at 3:03 pm
I bbq pork at home. TX BBQ simply isn’t good. TX fusion bbq is outstanding though. Curry boys (SA) or Vaquero (grapevine but just moved somewhere East) or Panther City(FW) I believe all have James Beard nominations and all are excellent. I never understood Goldee’s at #1 but there are some theories floating around.
re: Home Networking Systems

I had the orbi 960 for a couple months and got rid of it.
It does have a LOT of antennas/streams meaning you can make a decent network without using any wires. It wasn't a good system though. Not a true mesh and would have trouble recovering after outage. Data monitor would crash system every couple weeks too.
By simply using wires for backhaul, you can make a new/used $150/50 set of deco x55s much better than a orbi 960 set that costs 10x more.

re: What is the cost of replacing a 4 ton ac compressor that has a gas hookup?
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/12/25 at 7:40 pm
4 ton unit goes for $4-5k but there might be be a “retail” markup and high labor this time of year. Most all furnace are 96% now so they may have to convert your chimneys or try to find an 80% unit which are only legal for a couple more years and may be hard to find.

You mean “on the road” and not parked for work or something? In that case, all mobile providers including Starlink will be more pricy and may have extra data restrictions.

re: Best options for WIFI
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/12/25 at 6:33 am
That is entirely dependent on exactly where the camper is placed. Some RV parks have decent WiFi for free. Maybe cell signal is good and you go 5g. Maybe you’re staying behind someone’s house with fiber and use their WiFi. Starlink is superior for mobility but 5g with decent signal is significantly faster, lower latency, and cheaper.

Fixing a car AC is exactly same as the home: As long as it isn’t the inside coil, easy peasy.
re: Anyone looking at these? (Jetson)

Thanks. Didn’t realize enc/dec was any different from GPUs. Frigate community seems to have it all figured out but I don’t have 30 cameras so no need really.
It would be a huge value if I could put Jellyfin on there also but that looks a little too tricky for me right now. Hopefully they make it easy soon.
Edit: looks like only the nano uses the NVMPI and this larger AGX xavier has standard NVENC (and has 2x of them). Wish there was better documentation out there.

$139
2x NVENC
2x NVDEC
32GB 256 bit unified RAM
30+ TOPS
8 core ARM
<50w
Too slow for LLMs but would do a TON of frigate cameras and Plex/Jellyfin streams.
Think they’re a pain to use?
