Great work. We're in the middle of a larger scale project along these lines ourselves. At this point the hard scape is practically done (walls and irrigation system and earth grading)

So, we're about to start planting now. Your garden looks pretty mature. How long ago was this started? (oh I suppose I should click the link, eh?)

My instant reaction was "Meh"
Then I watched the ad and began to reconsider the basement built-ins that I was planning....
Now it's "Meh-by"

One key point often missed:
Do NOT compost oranges or lemons. They contain natural chemicals that will kill the bacteria you want in you compost heap. If you've been doing this, notice that the rarely if ever break down? That's why. These are actually bad for the heap.

Basically anything that cranks up the CPU can lead to an adaptive fan kicking into high gear. For me it's online videos for more than 10 minutes.

I have a girlfriend who gives me an evil eye any time she suspects a light is on elsewhere.

BTW is anyone looking for a used girlfriend?

ETA: They do say 'made to order' so perhaps that includes addressing the issues I bring up.


The Television Cabinet Reimagined, Hides Away Screen

I like it but I have a few issues:
1. Glass shelves always seem tacky. They have an 80s feel and get dusty really fast
2. None of the designs have an open shelf centered under the TV. If I'm going to spend 4-8K on something that holds the TV, I'm going to spend a lot on the TV and surround sound system. That means a center speaker. It's very hard to find a TV console that accommodates those well.
3. 36 inches is a about 12 too high. I don't care to look up at the TV from the couch.

So.. (setting aside the price) the concept is great -the details make it a no go.

I'd like it if the graphics were larger.
Cost per bulb is one thing, cost of bulbs over 50k hours is another. For example, 42 incandescents @ 1.25 = $52.50 vs $36 for 1 LED.

I'm fine with turning it off. Sure kindles are just dandy blaa blaa blaa but it's far easier to just have a blanket rule rather than keep up with the thousands of devices on the market. Plus if you get to keep your kindle on then the guy next to you will pitch a fit because he can't have his nimble on blaa blaa blaa.

Survive for 10 minutes. Everything will be ok.

in a space where you are sitting, put it at eye level. far to often I see wonderful rooms ruined by a TV that is impractically high over the fireplace. Unless you are standing at a bar, this is bad for your neck and the quality of the picture.

I wouldn't mind the key chain option. Replace my disposable film camera I leave in the car in case of an accident.

While they are not rocks, I have a pair of these infinity outdoor speakers that sound fantastic. They are been soaked pretty well in a downpour and they are paint-able.

Awsome. A device that does more than one thing is a device that has more than one way to fail.
