Dear automation people, I need help. I want to monitor a folder (with sub folders) for any videos. For each video that isn’t already mpg/aac/HVEC, I’d like it converted to it. Lastly, I would like the old file deleted/replaced with the new file. (1/2)

If you’re a homeowner, you really can’t have too many buckets available to use. Leaky pipes? Leaky roof? Quick planter? Haul some rocks/water/etc? Impromptu tool box? Quick place to sit? Trash can? The uses are infinite.

My wife’s family all share their location with each other 24/7. They’re all grown adults, some living 200+ miles away. Is that odd or normal?

Coach pitch baseball practice tonight:

• “Throw to 1st! Jack, that’s 3rd.”
• “Why is your shoe off at short?”
• “Your helmet is backwards, Liam.”
• “Stand up in the outfield.”
