(Other than making an Ok display and being a decent electronic whiteboard, it is basically a piece of junk in terms teleconferencing etc, which is what it was designed for, but I digress)



I sometimes use it for streaming news which is nice in a weather event, or something like the Notre Dame fire yesterday.



What I would really like is an app that I could run on my computer that would show on that monitor and cycle through family photos, etc when I'm not using it but haven't been able to find one that works the way I want.

I backed the Indiegogo project for the Piqo projector. I hope it ships soon and is half as cool as they promised. Will be awesome to have a 200" screen on the ceiling of my hotel room, lol.

The only thing they stop at the California border is fruits and vegetables.

I dunno what they were thinking when they redid the plumbing in my house then. All 50+ year old copper pipes were replaced with PVC.

Maybe your old copper pipes had lead-based solder? Still, PVC cannot handle heat.

Unlikely. PVC is not rated for potable water.

CPVC is what you guys are talking about. Extra chlorine FTW.

What’s a good song to listen when you’re in “I don’t give a fuck!” &/or “Fuck this day!” Kinda mood...

No but Cpvc can and is often used. Frequently called PVC but it really isn't.

PVC has been used for potable water for decades.
