If the body's natural temperature is about 98 degrees (F), why does it still feel really hot when the ambient temperature is 98F?

Thanks for posting it!
I gotta admit I got pretty hyped when she jumped in the ship and it actually took off, and was not just some way to hide a fast travel cut scene.
I'm also digging the vibes of that small town, looks like it could be good open world stuff. Very cautiously optimistic

I enjoy making diagrams, and I spent as much time on this as I did because my internet has been out for 2 days and counting and it was an offline tool I already had. Nevertheless, thanks for the link to a new tool to look at

Fret buzz on first and second frets
Several things go into string setup and buzz
If it's a new problem, truss rod is probably the most likely to have changed recently (wood moves), followed by fret wear.
If this guitar has always done this, it could be anything in its setup. Depending on how bad it is, it could even be intentional, the low strings are more likely to buzz and some folks are ok with it on an electric in order to get lower action on all the strings.
It's unlikely to be (only) your nut though - once you fret a string, the nut is removed from the equation, so it can't be the source of 2nd fret buzz (edit: any fretted buzz).
If you want to fully diagnose it rather than guess& check, you'd want a long straight-edge to check the neck straightness, a short straight-edge to check for unlevel frets (you can get a specially designed one called a fret rocker), and any small thing like a credit card to 'measure' your string action height at various frets.
Fixing the truss rod is a good repair to do anyway*, though. Hope this helps!

You're definitely right, I'm going to remove the Hue hub and connect everything to the ConBee. They were separated before because Hue came first, and I didn't want to rebuild my lighting setup at the time. HA automations were set up to use Hue-side groups, rather than HA-side groups. The thought hadn't occurred to me yet that I can unify them now - but I definitely will.
I did think I remembered that Hue bulbs don't work properly as ZigBee routers, but could be wrong there

Thanks for the hint, it's a good point. I need to check that my TV app store has it, I could see that being the catch.
That being said, I have been learning that my TV's software is complete garbage and I may just go back to Android casting for TV control in general...

At what point in your life did you decide to step up from Hanes or Fruit of the Loom underwear? Also, if you still wear them, why?
I have recently tried bamboo underwear and I will not buy different anymore

My favorite guitar I own, whats yours?
I have to cheat and say I have two favorites!
In normal terms, I would say my 1965 Airline, because it feels like owning a bit of history to me (it's my only vintage). It might be a bit cliche because of The White Stripes, but Jack White was the first guitar player that really influenced me and gave me the bug, so it means something special to me even if it's a popular/celebritized model.
(Sorry I can't figure out why Lemmy is rotating it, it's not rotated on my phone)

My other favorite is the one that I built this year, which I'd been wanting to do for ages and will continue doing as a hobby and maybe eventual retirement activity. It has a ton of mistakes but feels special knowing how it all went together.
My favorite subreddit was r/Luthier, I just started up an equivalent community here, although given current user base I'm guessing all discussion will happen here on guitars until we're able to support more niche users like that.

We did! It was amazing and we meant to go back on our own time for spring migration, but work didn't allow it unfortunately.
Have you been there also?

Haha I know what you mean, I have a foster-fail that is 5 now, and she's just not a snuggly cat and generally aggressive. I would have worried about her going to a shelter for adoption by the masses, so I kept her and give her the very distant love that she deserves 😅

Thanks for the link! We don't, but it would be awesome if we could somehow make it work as we also heard about a couple in South American countries that looked awesome. We were wondering if we could just kind of shuffle along following the finger pointing 😂
I'm in the southeast US - last year we made it over to both the Black Belt festival in central Alabama, and also for the Alabama Coastal Birdfest in the Mobile area
