Anything else I should check?
Just because nobody asked:
Love that curious raised ear. Did you also measure how much of a good boy they are?
Dog always gets that expression when the beardy dude that lives with him has one of his strange ideas, like in this case waving a blue box with a handle around. Makes no sense at all, but, humans, y’know.
He is the best boy, of course, no need to measure that. But I verified the low snoot temperature with a snoot boop.
But I verified the low snoot temperature with a snoot boop.
I find your methodology intriguing. It merits a thorough peer review. Is anyone willing to boop their pupper snoot and report back on their findings? For science, of course.
So this snoot is not measured with infrared so I can’t confirm the temperature that way however upon booping the snoot I can in fact confirm it was cool and moist.
Fascinating
“3.8 goodboyes, but that’s as high as the meter go…”
“3.8, not great, not terrible.”
Later…
“It’s not 3 goodboyes, it’s fifteen thousand.”
That’s some hot ass pussy!
Actually I was just about to
Used to have one of these too.
not what I expected to see in the comments of this post
How about that? Did you expect a hamster in infrared?
No.
Nobody ever does…
…sigh.
That hampter is runnin oh boi
On the contrary, this is exactly what I expected to see in the comments of this post.
Looking for a phone with this, a Geiger counter, and a light spectrum analyzer
Also a hardware keyboard, headphone jack, and runs Linux
That office has headphone jack and 2 sim slots, and some physical buttons for using the phone when it’s wet or under water, oh and a laser level, etc
Ok so you want a cyberdeck
How hot is your toilet water please.
Are you sure you’re dull? This is thrilling
Most exciting thing I’ve done since reorganizing my sock drawer!
Is the sock drawer the same temperature as the toilet water? Logically I would think so, but a weird part of me is saying the toilet water would be colder for some reason.
Wet feels cold, it’s a law of nature
Socks are also warm and cozy, that’s gotta count for something.
Can you measure the sock drawer?
Equilibrium is restored.
Cool
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Check where the heat loss is occurring in your house.
For fucks sake
I’m so sorry for your heat :(
what the fuck lol
I can’t believe you’ve done this
This post has been stellar.
I don’t get it. What is that?
Edit: For those that don’t know, they are referencing a meme . If you don’t know the meme, you probably won’t find it funny.
thanks!
Look up “loss webcomic”
Well lost, man, well lost.
I have a phone with a thermal imager too!
I mostly use it to brag to people about how I have a phone with a thermal imager!
But here is a demonstration that glass will reflect a bit of thermal radiation, but is completely opaque to thermal behind it:
As long as you aren’t touching the glass, wherein the glass will conduct your thermal signature:
And then if you take the hand away, the signature remains on the glass for several minutes!
As a bonus, my phone also has a microscope, and I learned that my facial hair is sometimes triangular:
what phone is this?
Ulefone Armour 27T pro.
You can even skip some gym days because the bugger weighs half a kilo.
Ooh that’s pretty rad!
You can’t not say what phone has FLIR. Need details please! lol
There was a discontinued (and discounted) CAT phone I was looking at a while back. The phone itself was mostly unimpressive, but it did have a decent FLIR camera which is why I was looking at it.
Ah sorry, it’s a second hand CAT s62
Okay, nice. So it is the same one I was looking at. Cool, but “bummer” at the same time. Was hoping there was a current/supported model with FLIR.
I know it’s not the same thing, but there is an external Flir camera that you can attach to your phone by USB-C.
What phone?!
Sorry for the Amazon link, but CAT no longer makes phones as of April 2024 so I can’t link to their website (which no longer exists):
It’s the S62 Rugged smartphone. https://www.amazon.com/CAT-PHONES-S62-Rugged-Smartphone/dp/B08YR66D1H
There’s a few models with thermal cameras, my doogee gt31v has one. I think ulefone and unihertz have models with them.
Don’t expect software updates.
Do you own any “Hot Wheels” toy cars? If so, how hot actually are those wheels?
In the absence of “Hot Wheels” toy cars, I’d also be interested in other objects which claim to be hot, but likely aren’t i.e. a “Hot Topic” clothing item, or bottle of “Hot Sauce”.
No wheels or topics here, but a whole collection of hot sauces straight from the fridge
A drop of Tha Bomb: Beyond Insanity on a plate also looks quite disappointing
However, put some of that straight into my mouth and let me tell you, I’m in a world of regrets right now.
I think I need an FLIR camera now lol
Thank you for your service to our entertainment
Brilliant, thank you :)
I’m so glad I don’t have one. I can’t imagine the amount of time I’d waste play acting splinter cell.
too bad they never released a game after chaos theory.
you can sometimes use these as a stud finder, depends on the wall
If you ever do electronics repair and are good at soldering these are a lifesaver for quick diagnosis if the resolution is high enough. Look at the board, apply power, and the part that is shorting out will often quickly get stupid hot. Sometimes it will be a complex repair you can’t easily do like a bga chip but you’d be surprised how often it’s just a random capacitor that went bad in your phone or switch or whatever and swapping it out (or even just getting rid of it if it’s an extra filter) fixes the issue. The hard part is finding out the value bc there are never schematics
A less easy to use alternative to this that I use bc thermal cams are expensive is squirt isopropyl alcohol or flux on the board and apply power. It’ll boil at the point where the part is shorting. Harder to determine but much cheaper. If you already have the camera though
My go to is to upside-down spray canned air at the PCB. once the canned air boils off, it leaves a layer of frost and you can immediately tell what is hot because it melts the frost.
That’s a good one, I will add that to the repertoire
My house is entirely made out of brick, I doubt it’ll be very effective here but I’ll definitely check
I don’t think a brick house has studs
This was an educational rabbit hole to go down.
It seems not all brick houses have wall studs, but most do.
It makes sense to me to have studs to help run utilities (electrical, air ducts, etc) and for hanging drywall.
but most do.
Never seen a brick house that has studs around here. Most houses around here are built like this:
Concrete floors/ceilings, bricks in between, utilities get carved into the brickwall and are covered when the inside plaster is applied. The inside plaster is usually made up from two or three layers and is around 3cm thick.
What country is that?
Germany.
Unfortunately I can’t see the image. But I understand what you’re saying.
Oh, right, have some JPEG then:
Balls… First thing I would check LOL
First thing I sent to my gf of course, but not posting here. She said it was the best dick pic she’d ever received
Don’t post the pic, but what’s the temp difference of balls to the rest of you?
I’ll ask my gf to measure it in an hour or so, I’ll keep you posted
How warm is your empty chair after you’ve sat in it for an hour
That’s hot
Well, @LaminatedDenim@lemmy.world is just hot
Aww ^^
Was that your bed after lying on it … or do you just have a misshapen butt?
Sideways on the sofa
Update: I sat on the side of the cold bed for 5 minutes
I’m guessing you’re a guy … or you had a heated accident after that hot sauce
This is the most thrilling dullness I’ve seen in the community … thank you for your service.
At the very least it’s safe to say I have a scrotum
*a very warm scrotum
And that’s how my dog learned that silently sneaking off the couch a few seconds before I entered the room weirdly didn’t cut it anymore one day.
Go around the house and look at all your outlets. You’ll find that GFCI outlets put out a small amount of heat. (Something to do with their function that is unavoidable.) Regular outlets that are warm and under no load may require investigation.
You can also spot heating conduits in walls, roughly figure out what power adapters are not very efficient, and even use them to gauge how well heated blankets and the like are working. I used mine to look at studs in the wall to figure out (well, be certain about) how some old renovations were handled.None of these cameras measure things in Kelvin, the only temperature scale that matters. Disappointing.
They do actually, it’s just that they convert it to Celsius right before displaying the value on the screen
It doesn’t count if you can’t see it!
Kelvin is the only legitimate way to measure temperature. Everything else is trivia. Duh.
Edit: I don’t have time for your downvotes. It’s 277 degrees outside and I don’t have a clean sweater.
You are actually upvoted, it’s just shown in Celsiusvotes.
I should have realized!
277 degrees? RIP
277 kelvin would be a nice temperature tho
I just said Kelvin was the only legitimate way to measure temperature. Of course 277 degrees Kelvin.
I was making a joke, if a pedantic one. You don’t measure Kelvin in degrees, it’s not °K, it’s just K. So 4 degrees Celsius is 277 kelvin.
Ohh two can play that game, your cited resolution has been superseded in 1967~

Edit: and for extra pedantry, the unit is spelled lowercase, the temperature scale uppercase c:
ROFL!
Now, this technology is new to me, but I believe that’s Homer Simpson in the oven, rotating slowly. His body temperature has risen to 400 degrees. He’s literally stewing in his own juices!
d’oh
