Scalpers have turned that into $6000 for the available units left.

You're going to like the way it rides. I have a Tracer. The CP3 engine is, I think, currently the absolute best engine in the business right now.

Hmm, this couldn't have anything to do with his pending Starlink deal with Italy? 🤔

Balatro high contrast mode is a godsend.

Maybe it's even more important to him to be close to you or your folks than it is to be warm? ☺️

To clarify: the pump and blower are controlled by an air switch. That is, the unit pictured has a 4 position switch and 15 meters away, at the actual spa, is a bulb that when pressed activates the air switch on the control unit. The bulb is connected to the switch by a plastic tube that goes underground between the two.

The tube is shot. Replacing it can be a pain. I'm trying to replace the control unit with something that uses wi-fi or other signal to turn on spa and blower from the spa. Right now, because the current air switch is bad, if I want to turn it on, I have to go outside the fence, around the corner to turn on the breakers, and then do it again to turn it off. The timer doesn't matter because we never use a timer to turn it on or off.

Hopefully that makes it clearer?

Thanks. I'm comfortable doing basic wiring. If I replace the breaker box, I'll have a pro do it. But for the controller, it may seem simple, but I have yet to find a specific product or mix of products that can simply turn off and on 2 220 circuits by wi-fi radio or BT. That's what I'm trying to find.

No, in fact it's definitely not. Since these are two pole 3 phase circuits. And they are outdoor. And, as stated before scheduling is the part I don't need, I want manual on/off.

I've spent a few days researching how to replace my air switch / timer box with something remote control. Water got in the air switch line and it hasn't worked right since. I've looked for replacement breakers, maybe some contactors with wifi etc. I don't need a timer function, just on and off for my spa pump and blower. I believe they each run on a 220v 20amp circuit. The pictures below are the old box with timer and air switch, and the breakers that precede that box, which I believe is a quad plex arrangement. I'm open to replacing the breakers or the box.

I'm a novice with this stuff so any guidance you have is appreciated in advance. I actually spoke with intermatic and their rep told me they don't have any single boxes that can control 2 220v circuits, which seems insane to me since the original is an intermatic product.

I just had a beef bowl from the Ramen joint my spouse and I discovered a couple weeks ago. It was awesome. Also a great seaweed salad app. Just to go full on, I picked up some watermelon Ramune soda and some teriyaki mochi at the store too. Didn't plan on a full Japanese cuisine evening but I'm glad it happened.

Good to hear you're all enjoying your meals today.

It's even dumber that his nom de sputum, is almost certainly a Resident Evil 4 reference. 🙄

FWIW, my last phone (until 3 weeks ago) was a OnePlus Nord N20. Absolutely stellar budget phone with a solid mid-range experience and features. It had a headphone jack AND an SD card slot, as well as dual SIM tray if that's useful. I think it's actually higher spec than the N30. You can still find those. OnePlus is pretty good about including a lot of that stuff, except on their flagship phones. Hope that's helpful.

 

If I'm late to the party on this, my apologies. I just got the game because it's cheaper with PSPremium. It's awfully close to the VR Astrobot we hoped we would get. I've played about 3-4 hours and am on the second "world", and so far it's an absolute blast. If you played the original Astrobot Rescue for PSVR1 it's very similar. I don't want to go on too long, but here is a short list of pros and cons:

Pros:

*They add a few Mario-like mechanics with hidden blocks and overworld maps. *They add direct participation in the environment from the player a bit like Moss for some levels and it's great *Some score attack mini-games based on game mechanics

  • Movement and jump physics feel very smooth and intuitive

Cons:

  • The graphics and art are great but not quite the level of an Astrobot or Mario
  • They don't really develop the additional mechanics much or make make them integral to the gameplay
  • The difficulty is generally lower than a Mario, maybe a hair lower than Astrobot, but it has some strange ups and downs mid-game that make some parts feel too easy and others feel strangely frustrating. (This is minor, but it does pop-up from time to time.)

If you liked Astrobot VR this will definitely be a good choice for you, and over-all I think it's one of the better titles available on PSVR2 currently. I hope that's helpful information.

 

"Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii was revealed earlier today, setting up the bizarre story of fan-favorite Goro Majima donning buccaneer cosplay and sailing the high seas. In the wake of the announcement, people are suddenly starting to remember that an accurate outline of the entire game actually leaked months ago - it was just so ridiculous nobody believed it was true."

JUST IN: The jury has reached a verdict in Donald Trump’s hush money criminal trial in New York. The verdict will be read in court shortly. The 12-person jury has been considering whether Trump is guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records, which are all connected to the alleged cover up of hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels. The jury must be unanimous in its decision. Trump has pleaded not guilty to the charges in the case and denies the affair with Daniels.

Taken early May, 2024; Myakka State Park, FL.

 

I also got several with internal reflections between the filter and the lens. Thought it was kind of cool.
