Fail fast and fail forward. Don’t be afraid to start, be afraid of looking back having never done anything. Regret is poison.

Learn what the pareto principle is and live by it. Be efficient.

When life gets hard focus on what’s in front of you not on the world, ideology, news, thats all distraction. Learn to stay in the moment, what’s right here, right now, infront of you.

Cherish loved ones. Focus on your health now. Your health can be gone at a moments notice, life is about balance. Every action has a reaction.

Focus on your strengths not your weaknesses. You have infinite weaknesses. Your strengths will be your lynchpin at times.

Always be curious. Don’t lose the will to learn and ask questions. Knowledge is everything.

Always stay moving physically. Stay doing something productive.

Listen to your gut during times of uncertainty. Trust very little of others. Words mean nothing. Actions never lie.

Nixos do be nice though. I’d consider LFS is for the true neckbeard nerd.

I know. And they do it now days with no warrants in the US which is supposed to be illegal. All other points are very valid.

But generally lights don’t equate heat with modern LEDs is all I was saying unlike old halogen or sodium bulbs.

A lot of growers use basements which obscures a lot of thermal imaging. Including under ground shipping containers, cellars, and more. But your example images are spot on from real people that got caught. I still think profiling should be illegal and there should be some strict laws in place to catch criminals the right ways but rant for another time.

Most modern people don’t have access to all that advanced tech, don’t care, feel it should be legal, poor, average. Not some criminal enterprise. Thanks for uploading the photos though for others to see.

Fuck those people, we wasn’t talking about those people. Common sense something or another.

Of course modern criminals are smart. /s

The good ones are. The poor ones suffer the consequences of their own actions. With modern tech crime advances faster under no regulations than laws can. The problem is uneducated criminals lol

You’d think with modern LED setups this would be null and void. It’s quite wild to see a lot of older schooled growers still using sodium lamps and other high heat, high energy lighting fixtures and getting caught, wasting energy, etc.

Now days modern LEDs are multi fold more efficient. You’d also think that if someone was doing bad deeds illegally they’d be more inclined to stick to a more strict standard.

I guess criminals never did have much standards… Organized crime excluded and even then some organized crime syndicates aren’t fully organized in a manner that detection is impossible. They just aren’t a nuisance enough to warrant the big league agencies. Local LEOs are definitely picking up new tech and evolving faster as the money rolls in these last 10 years.

Damn I need to power off. I’m like how does anyone write in their BIOS? I’m pretty sure it’s just settings. 😅

Tailscale the end.

Highly accurate for her. This is how she is.

Here’s the beauty. You can self host it. They give you the option to choose your method. You don’t have to pay they offer free accounts.

I checked them both out and shared them. Thank you. These things are great. These techniques and tools people are suggesting are what I was looking for. Any other advice or suggestions let me know.

Look I love fully offline concepts just as much as the next person. But what Bitwarden offers me that those other solutions don’t, is to offload some of the mental load long-term. I like privacy but something are exhausting. Pick and choose your battles.

Less hands on maintenance and mental overhead to keep things synced and all services / files up to date. We bitwarden users have other stuff to do. Different priorities.

This is one of the things I decided to keep to the people who do this far more and deeper than I ever could. Their job. Their liability.

All my accounts are encrypted, cloud accessible, or offline accessible. Protected by a giant hash of a master password. It allows me to feel safe and provides the convenience of copy and pasting insane credentials needed in today’s times. Hassle free. Great features. The end.

*potentially even under free account if you choose.

I agree to some degree but chill is not me and she’s chill I guess but not in the casual way just in the silent shy way. Thanks for your input though

I’m ADHD haha and so I got issues too explaining things just in a different way.

The last paragraph sounds like her she will go quiet unless you keep poking at an issue then she will talk but be extra moody. She’s totally normal day to day and not super autistic it’s mild. Another commenter said to try a mood wheel. They sent a few examples and I saved them to try to send to her as a tool in the bag. That’s the type of ideas I was looking for.

Perhaps that was way over stated. All our interactions are not negative but for the sake of the post I was focusing on those aspects to find tools to improve myself and her to communicate more effectively.

In no way shape or form are our interactions as basic as that sounded. We function almost entirely normal. Do normal activities, go places, hangout, work and hobbies. When I meant basic interaction I don’t mean she sits on bench and cannot function. I just meant anything outside of typical day to day like intricate displays of emotion or communication about our relationship issues is where the wall hits. Its not trust. Or as dead sounding as that seemed. Its that she lacks ways to articulate her emotions and what to say.

I’m very fast paces mentally And physically. I’m ADHD through and through so going slow and feeling tired is not in my mindset. She takes forever, can’t talk deeply, has trouble mentally in all aspects. I’m more like a racecar and she’s like a turtle. Nothing is wrong with that. We have good chemistry. But it’s not easy past the chemistry stage. Because our childhoods, adult mentality are so different.

Edit: We are very open, direct. We plan sexual activities, we plan almost all activities. But anything past basic conversations gets lost in translation for her. I’m very supportive, we both are for each other. The dynamic is good. Just the communication sucks no matter how much we try. Consistency is her flaw, depth. I am the doer. I do, plan, almost everything. She’s more idle, watch, hands off plans and couldn’t make a decision on where to eat if she tried. Shed starve to death. Highly indecisive.
