I’m in the same boat. Got all the equipment in for my whole house solar installation and will be re-routing circuits to the new panel as soon as I have time.

I’ve got an Anker power station that should run my stack for about 4-4.5 hours by itself and can run it indefinitely while the sun is out while hooked into the PV panels. Those are (currently) independent from the new installation I’m about to start.

My UPS’s are also LiFePO4 models and can add an additional ~45 minutes of uptime.

Because I have to make everything about The Golden Girls these last couple of weeks…

Announced today during Trek‘s blockbuster Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Jordan Canning (who directed season 2’s “Charades”, but perhaps more crucially here, also directed seven episodes of the Fraggle Rock revival, Back to the Rock) will direct an episode in the upcoming fourth season of Strange New Worlds that will see the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise turned into puppets. Anson Mount’s Captain Pike beamed into the convention to let fans know… well, kind of

…

Nothing else was revealed about the episode, other than the fact Paramount will be working with the fine purveyors of puppet technology at the Jim Henson Creature Shop to bring Pike and the rest of the crew to fabric life for the episode.

That’s basically me. I watched it, though, lol, but mostly because the premiere is far enough away that I probably won’t remember half of it come July anyway. Otherwise, I’m pretty rigorous about avoiding spoilers of any sort and is why I wasn’t really around when everyone was talking about Academy when it was airing (have since watched and enjoyed it though).

They have already started announcing celebrity guests as well. Today Creation revealed the headliners will include Kate Mulgrew (VOY/PRO), Jeri Ryan (VOY/PIC), Terry Farrell (DS9), Nana Visitor (DS9), Denise Crosby (TNG), and Melissa Navia (SNW). Additional guests for the event will be announced each day this week.

I’ve never been to a convention, but Philadelphia is (relatively speaking) right next door to me. I’m seriously considering saving some vacation time and making this my first because I really want to go to one and they’ve got the most powerful women in the galaxy lined up.

Was it because Blanche is a southern belle and said “you all” instead of “y’all”? Cause I had to grumble about that at first.

And Linux, but agreed lol.

Yeah. Lenin, Marx, and The Golden Girls.

Hah, thanks. The original discussion thread I linked in my first reply was full of differing opinions on that topic but everyone was approaching it from a “this works for me but you do you” angle. I’m disappointed and apologize the same topic under this post was so inflammatory. That wasn’t even what the post was about.

Edit: Oh, I replied to this from the inbox but am now realizing this was addressed to the room :facepalm:.

Lol, thanks, that’s what I was going for. Not whatever (gestures to the other thread) that is.

Let me worry about my own dogs, yeah? We do walk with a harness, putting on shoes (me) and collars (dogs) before we go out has been a literal routine for years, and they do always wear their collars when they’re new and in training for exactly the reasons you all are harping about. We even do emergency drills for things like tornado warnings where I say “danger, danger” and they know to head to the basement (where I keep backup collars + ID tags and vet records).

For fuck’s sake, it’s a cute dog meme and y’all are pouncing on one trivial line in the caption like I’m the worst animal abuser in the world for wanting my dogs to be comfortable around the house. There are too many miniscule-chance-of-that-ever-happening "what if"s to worry about that I’m not going to live my life in a safety bubble. The yard is fenced, we’re in suburbia, they’re both chipped, they’re both trained, they’re both socialized, the neighbors all know them, and we’re doing just fine thank you very much.

Geesh, the number of people around here who always have to be right is staggering and extremely off-putting.

Lots of people. We’re a “no shoes, no collar” house.

Both dogs are trained to not bolt out the door when it opens, and I’ve got a fenced yard.

Not sure of the actual name, but they’re like wire nuts but crimped instead of twist. I don’t think there’s a non-destructive way to undo them but you may be able to rip the wires out and use a regular wire nut to splice them back. If not, try cutting them as far inside as you can and replacing with another crimp connector or use a screw type wire nut.

I never really got the humor there, lol, but I’m lamenting the loss of 80s TV because I had a lot of good Golden Girls posts since I’m finally watching it for the first time.

My (limited) understanding is that there’s no straightforward way to do that at least in Lemmy.

You mean the images going down fairly regularly?

I can’t even afford to bid on Grudge’s cat collar lol.

I get that it isn’t the same but when all you have is a garbage version of a memory, I’m not sure or really matters whether the representation is the original garbage or something that makes you feel less regret over not having something better.

In my experience, the worse the photograph the better my memory of it. Probably because my mind is already used to filling in the blanks in the garbage version, so it’s constantly refreshing the memory in my mind to keep it vivid. YMMV obviously. I’m also not much of a shutterbug and prefer to commit moments to memory than try to fight with my phone to snap a photo I’ll probably never look at.

I mean, replace religion with communism/anarchism/whatever stupid -ism, and that’s like half the people here.

But also, any time you see anything “blogspot [dot] com” here, it’s 99.9999% always blogspam so I just report and block.
