Status: Sheltering in place, we have plenty of food and supplies.
Read something: The “town square test”—can EVERYONE express themselves freely, publicly, without fear of reprisal? Can we speak freely without checking for a BLM protestor confronting us wherever we are? Can we have a sign like Blue Lives Matter or All Lives Matter in our yards without fearing damage to our homes? Three-warning-signs-of-ideological-totalitarianism
Even in our homes family members are very polarized and resort to going into our corners after showing our dissent to them.
Plans: Let the NodeMCU’s and the dehumidifier run until 13 October.

NodeMCU ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC
NodeMCU Status: Our air conditioner is limping with a oil logged evaporator until we replace the unit in October. The thermostat is also limping along because of leaking batteries. I’m using these NodeMCU’s to measure the temperature and humidity throughout the house and turn on / off the power to the thermostat.
New issue, compressor stopped working during a normal thermostat operation. The only thing that’s unique is that the coil temp dropped to 44 degrees right away.
Feelings: As Christians we are compelled to look after the Widows and the poor. Just how we do that in this climate when there is so much energy fighting the democracy I don’t know.
Tomorrow: Monday
