In what situation do you need to do this?

>>3000203
This way the CCP gets to know your sleep habits.

>>3000407
In the exact situation I said. If you want lights on to walk to your seat and then want to turn them off. Or if you want to turn them on while your sitting down for whatever reason without walking over to the switch.

This is generally a fair assessment, but if he wasn't a moron he would have at least noticed the big knob. From there he could at least be expected to see the cutting wheels turn.

not mine. mine is dead fucking silent, turns on a nearby lamp (not actually the one behind it) to supposedly help me wake up but there's nothing short of firing blanks into the ceiling that'll wake me these days.

Just changed the oil and filter in my truck. Not a major flex. I did not spill a drop, which I think is bragworthy.

>>3000168
Everyone starts smol. Continue, persevere and you can save absurd amounts of money over your lifetime doing what other ordinary humans do.

You will make mistakes but that's the price of learning. Carry on anyway and see each task as opportunity.

No you didn't anon. You clearly died then posted.

I want to hook up one of those auto switches to a few doors in my house so my bathroom, hall, and foyer lights come on automatically when certain doors are opened and stay on for a few minutes after.
