Holidays 2020

[Institutional Control]

I whooped ass on the gang of rabbits that were eating my garden only to see them replaced by an even harder to capture/deter gang of squirrels.

Squirrels DGAF about fences/dogs/fake owls, they run all the rackets (garden/pumpkins/acorns/etc) in my hood.

Rabbits are wreaking havoc on Christmas lights in my neighborhood.  I would think they would electrocute themselves but I guess not.

[Brock Landers]

Samesies.  Today will be busy as hell, about to have monthly 1 on 1 with my boss, gonna get some other crap wrapped up by the end of the day and then coast and chill for a few days.

Just know that as soon as you whoop up on those rabbits the squirrel gang will take over the rabbits old territory and you will have an even bigger problem on your hand. Very similar to NYC when they took out the old Mafia families only to see the Russian Mobsters take over.

I should get a timer for my outdoor lights. Half of the time I remember to turn them on and off. The other half of the time they're either off in the evening or on all night long.

[steve dave]

I have some wifi switches on mine that were cheap and work well. can schedule or turn them on off with my phone. also the inside ones. all on wifi switches.

[8manpick]

That is what we have, and canco it works great

[Kat Kid]

I need wifi switches now. I have been running the Christmas lights all day and night for like a week to appease my Christmas crazed children.

Did you know that in the US of A we use as much electricity on Christmas lights as the country of Latvia uses during the entire year?

I hate having to use wifi plugs as I like to keep everything zwave but I have something just like your exterior one for my patio lights but also has a dimming feature that I can't find with zwave capabilities.

The Amazon infrastructure has broken under the pandemic holiday season.

It seems to me to be more of a supplier issue. Popular products just aren't available. Other stuff, however, is. Tonight, I just bought a XBox Elite Series 2 controller that will be here tomorrow morning. Bought from a reseller though for $20 over MSRP. The same product at MSRP from Microsoft's Amazon store may or may not have arrived by Christmas.

[michigancat]

Yeah Amazon seems normal tbh. Although my last whole foods delivery took longer, probably because of the new stay at home orders

All my stuff seems 72 hours instead of 24. Maybe broke isn't the right word but there are noticeable delays on most stuff. Christmas toy gifts for the nephew and niece seem really delayed.

Yeah, I mean, YMMV, but some xmas toys I purchased that were supposed to arrive today actually arrived early yesterday . By way of full disclosure, I do not own any Amazon stock, although I may own fractional interests through various funds.

Resellers feast in Q4 on amazon for this very reason.  Amazon always runs out.
