FYI, most newer cars have a way for you to turn off the auto lock feature. It is usually a setting in menus, but some might have you do things like close all the doors, turn the car on, and then hold the unlock button for 10 seconds.
Worst case scenario is it has to be done through the programming tool, so if you can’t figure out how to do it yourself, then the next time you have it serviced tell them to turn off the auto-locks.

If I remember correctly, when auto locks were first introduced some countries saw them as dangerous so automakers were required to provide a way to turn it off.

Maybe Uber is trying to start a new dating app. “The best way to pick up chicks is to trap them in your car.”

Spying.

I am not sure if you are making a joke or trying to troll me, but either way I laughed. So thanks for that.

You clearly didn’t grow up before lithium batteries. Before lithium, batteries sucked and they sucked hard. You would spend a small fortune to buy 5 lb of batteries to put in your tape player, CD player, remote control toy, anything portable and then you would get between 5 minutes to an hour of total use time. Or, if it was you rarely used the gadget, or it was something like a remote control that were only on for incredibly short bursts as you push the button, you would leave the batteries in it until they went dead. But then you got the treat of opening it up to replace the batteries and finding that they leaked all over the inside and destroyed the device.
I have lost so many portable devices to leaking batteries that I can’t even begin calculate how much it’s cost me. Before smartphones, I had probably spent upwards of $1,000 ( in today’s money) in calculators alone. I don’t even work in some kind of math-type job or have a mathematics type degree.

I bought a set for work that comes with 2 rechargeable lithium packs and an external charger so you can just swap as needed.

My first thought was maybe this will work for us. Can you imagine how many of these ancient fuckheads who vote for shit like this are going to die every day because they can’t figure out how to log in to their pacemakers and verify their age?

No, it is not.

Does too.

Hoffman was a founder of Reddit, he was a part of the very creation of the site. He also had absolute and unlimited access to every bit of data that reddit ever had or created. He was also well known for editing other people’s comments for his own amusement and narcissism. He not only could have easily been the creator, but he could have been the very mod who made his other account “a mod as a joke”. He definitely could have removed himself as a mod of jb just as easily as any of the other well known edits he did to Reddit. And he definitely had direct and unfettered access to every single photo that was ever uploaded or linked to Reddit, even the ones that were so illegal that even the jailbait mods took them down.
So, the other guys opinion that Hoffman was the head pedo and creator of jailbait is just as valid and verifiable as your opinion that it was a joke that he nothing to do with it.

I am confused. I distinctly remember news stories about us running out of ss#s. I remember stories of people getting the same number. Wtf?

I am no expert, but in my own research for a previous task I had to deal with for work, most everything I saw said that getting below 30-35% for even a small room like a closet was going to be difficult without moving to heavy duty and expensive equipment. I don’t know if there have been improvements in the technology since then (dehumidifiers have definitely gotten much smaller) but you start getting into issues were you are pulling moisture from the surrounding walls and items in the room.
I suspect in you situation you May be able to make some gains with heat, but I have to wonder if how hot you can go before you start seeing problems with the cabinet itself. I have seen cabinet delaminate just from being in hot garages, so I am not sure how hot you can get.

That’s great news. One of my fans came with a remote years ago. The remote uses this special little 12v battery that is both expensive and incredibly short lived.

That sounds like it might be better than what I was originally thinking.

Cool, I will check it out, thanks.

Hmmm yes… I know some of those words… Looks like I have a lot of web searches in my future.

Thanks, I’ll check it out.

You had me at dimmer switch automation blueprints. I’m not sure what that means but I feel like it’s going to be the reason I am up all night.

So far it is just basic wifi switches (tplink). I have been trying to figure out how I am going to handle these weird edge case switches situations before I get too deep and discover I went the wrong way. I gave a little bit more detail in an answer to another user.

I’ve been thinking about what to do for a master control station. I like the idea of a dedicated tablet mounted and powered right next to the master bedroom switches.

Just a basic wifi setup so far. I was thinking I would need to rewire the original switch to hardwired and skip the switch part. But, I really like your idea of a 3D printed cover, that way I can still kill the power if needed. And depending upon the control I end up going with I might even be able to integrate it into that cover… That’s awesome.
That switch you linked me to is pretty sweet also. Not only would it eliminate the need to change or charge batteries for remote type devices, but I also would not have to cut into the wall or do anything drastic to add switches to the current single gang switch.

The existing switches operator fans with a light. The fan may be on but the light off, so you currently have to cross the room to get to the pull switch to turn the light on. And in my bedroom, if my wife is asleep with the fan on, I would like to turn on a small lamp that won’t wake her up. It’s easy enough if I have my phone on me, but otherwise I’m trying to make it across the room without tripping on the dog.
