Since that Parnell is most recently known for Jerry in Rick and Morty, I feel like we’re missing out on “Star Trek: Jerry”

Picture it: Alpha Quadrant, 3070. Captain Jerry Smith’s is one of the few ships to survive The Burn.

Captain Jerry: I just kept maintaining course and speed at full impulse, and it just kept working.

The Doctor didn’t consider that in “Phage” and I only recall VOY using the transporter buffer trick once when they had to hide the telepathic crew members when they’re traveling through Devore space.

the so-called “First Lady of Star Trek” recorded an entire library of phonetic sounds, allowing her voice to be used in future products outside of Star Trek and, quite possibly, as the computer voice in Star Trek: Discovery.

Same. I’ll have to try it with pastrami sometime.

Yum! I usually do similar with roast beef.

I thought I was above enjoying all of the really campy episodes, but apparently not. I thoroughly enjoyed “Rascals” just for the Guinan / Ro Laren sass.

If they took Subspace Rhapsody to Broadway, I would happily make that my first show.

and That Puppet Episode

I was ambivalent about “Those Old Scientists” and bringing the LD cast in as live-action characters. Ended up loving it.

I was ambivalent about “Subspace Rhapsody” and a musical episode in general. Also loved it.

I was initially ambivalent about the puppet episode, but if history is anything to go by, bring it on.

Be careful. Those things are addicting.

That’s how I started: a little 5v, 6 watt panel I stuck in the window to charge my phone while I worked. Then I wanted to charge some other stuff, so I got a 15W panel. 15w panel was nice, but 100 watts was much better, so I bought two 100W fold-up panels like you’ve got.

Then I bought a big 1 KWh power station that could supply up to 2000 watts. I take it camping and charge it from the two 100W fold up panels.

But, sadly, the demon had its claws in me and refused to let go. “Why should I only use that solar power two or three times a year?” the voice said. So I bought 4x 200 watt panels so I could use the power station to power my homelab and refrigerator during the day.

Still, that wasn’t enough to satiate my addition. Now I’ve got 4 KW on the roof, 32 KWh of house battery, and a 10 KW inverter that is currently powering our house.

Am I satiated now? Only time will tell.

lol. My guess would be either really, really long and covers every possible scenario or extremely short and brutally honest.

T’Rinity

Had to go out of my way to find the Betty White one.

Yep. The QR code is only the encoded BT address to make connecting in the app easier than…selecting it from a list.

I thought about that, but one of the safety features of these batteries is an active fire suppression system that fills the interior with some kind of fire-extinguishing foam. I’m terrified to try to take these apart for fear of somehow triggering that. Plus, they’re hella expensive lol.

Yeah. These are pretty short range and my house (block construction + metal roof) blocks the signals pretty well. Batteries are installed in the basement, and even upstairs I struggle to keep a signal, especially with a crowded 2.4 GHz wifi with all my smart bulbs, etc.

Someone would have to be right at my doorstep to pull this off unless they hook up a directional antenna and point it right at them. Still, would be nice if I could just turn off Bluetooth since I can just use a wired serial connection. At least the inverter has an external Wifi/BT module I can just choose not to connect (it also has a serial connection for monitoring/config).

My house batteries for my PV system are also susceptible to this. Ugh.

They’ve both got Bluetooth for monitoring and configuration. Some config changes require a PIN but not the settings to enable/disable charge and discharge. Someone could just get within range of them, install the official app, and set discharge to “off” and shut down my house.

I’ve also not found a way to disable bluetooth on them. Gonna have to put them in a damn Faraday cage if I decide to worry about that possibility. :sigh:

Lol, that would certainly make the station regulations much more concise.

Other than the alternate timeline Ed Begley Jr Odo from “Children of Time”, I dare say this is the happiest we ever see him.

I want one of those so badly since it’s perfect for my use cases but I also don’t want to be an early adopter.

We can run the HVAC in fan only mode, and it doesn’t seem to help much for cooling with the windows open. Just moves the same air around unless there’s a breeze outside pushing outside air in/out.

We used to have a pair of window fans we put on opposite sides of the house, one pushing and one pulling, but those both failed in the last few years and we never replaced them (Why do window fans cost ~$60?! lol) Those worked great, so I guess I’m just gonna have to pay the ridiculous prices and replace them.
