@neauoire Do you have any experience with PLCs? I’ve been designing my hydronic heating/cooling system for my new home and was thinking a PLC would be a good idea. I imagine one could run Uxn, but I’m not sure where to start. Any ideas?

Watched About Time a few months ago and still thinking about it. Good movie that I’ll definitely re-watch.

Heidi had a great time and got a crack full of snow! I ended up being the sled dog, and after a week of probably Covid, that was hard! So much fun!
