I just noticed that @guthrietheater.bsky.social is on Bluesky.

Great job with Primary Trust.

Luckily, AI never gets confused by anything. I'm sure there will never be a situation where people are inconvenienced or put in danger by the AI.
On a totally unrelated note, I'm curious whether there's a vehicle equivalent of asking ChatGPT if there is a seahorse emoji.

On Weber's site, I can enter the serial or model number of my grill and they'll sell me the correct replacement part.

The connector is brass.

With shipping, it's $60 and no uncertainty.

If the regulator were to fail, I'd probably lose whatever is left in the propane tank. That would cost me about $25.

Figuring in the cost of a part failure, the $50 price of the weber part isn't looking as bad.

Would it work?

I think it should, but I don't know.

I have a 4 burner grill with the sear station burner and a side burner.

If I wanted to burn all of them at once, would this regulator handle the load?

I'd think it should, but I don't know.

Each of these products say that they're compatible with a Weber Genesis II--the kind that I have. They even give a year range of models that it should work for.

There was some uncertainty with their compatibility. My grill was a year out of their range.

Look, here's an oddly similar product page.

Those nearly identical products, I'm guessing, are either one seller creating several merchant accounts, or a bunch of people copying each other.

I think it's the former. The merchant names are typically unpronounceable.

Brass connectors will not rust.

I also find it weird that there seem to be around 20 nearly identical options for an item.

They all have similar feedback. They are glowing, except for a negative review or two--saying that the product leaks after months.

The ones on AMZN all looked very similar. About 20 of them have the same images.

They also have the same type of connector, steel. The Weber one's connector is brass.

Steel connectors will fail more quickly. They will rust.

If not caught, it will release all the gas in the tank.

Recently, I damaged the regulator on my Weber grill. I had to order a new one.

I had a choice, pay around $60 on Weber's site, or pay as low as $20 on Amazon.

I decided to go with the $60.

Why?

I'm not sure why that is.

I still buy tons of things, mostly food.

Costco Business Center is my haunt.

AMZN used to be where I'd buy specific items. I liked the fast delivery and the price.

What other value is there to Prime? We don't use the shopping part like we used to.

During the lockdown, we ordered tons of things.

When we moved into our house, we ordered tons of things.

We no longer order tons of things.

What's interesting to me is I didn't mind that the cost of the service went up.

It wasn't until the quality of the service dropped that I started reconsidering whether I want the service at all.

The other service that I am enjoying less is Prime Video.

The ads are making the experience less enjoyable. Do I pay the extra money for no ads or do I just drop the service altogether?

Here's a picture of the little stinker.

Keep it up! You're almost there.
It's been about 20 years of not smoking for me.
It will get easier and harder. One day, you won't even think about it.
You're doing a good thing for yourself.

That's kind of a scary scenario. That makes me think that the password isn't hashed or salted.
