Can't speak to the burgers as I only ever order chicken fries from BK, but I will argue that their French fries have a more forgiving edible temperature range than McD or Wendy's. Still wouldn't eat 'em room temperature.
Do you drink a lot of pops and leave the empty cans in the car?
No. Nothing stays in my car beyond the necessary paperwork, some basic tools, an umbrella, and a dry towel.
I've had granules of steering wheel foam rubber crumble off on my hands, same with the shift knob. This only happened when there was water in the trunk, and the heat and humidity made everything feel tacky. If I vacuumed the water out, these problems went away until the next heavy rain brought water into the trunk again. The headliners started falling down during this time as well, despite being relatively newly installed headliners.
How do you think vehicles in humid places last? Lol.
All of the things I described have happened to two cars I've had in the past that each had a trunk leak. Beyond directly problematic sources of moisture, I live where humidity is frequently over 90%. Humidity damage is real.
Deteriorate headliner backing, steering wheel, shift knob, fabric door panel adhesive, armrest, makes every surface tacky to the touch and leaves goobery gunk on all the touchable surfaces
The same chemical found in household cleaners, industrial waste, and bird shit is also present in Starbucks coffee. That same chemical also sank the Titanic, and kills around 300,000 people per year.
I keep seeing Reolink pop up. Would a Reolink doorbell work with a Unifi NVR?
Sort of. You can add most cameras that support ONVIF and they'll be viewable and record just fine in Protect, but third party cameras won't support detection unless you also add a Unifi AI Port. I also wouldn't count on Unifi recognizing it as a doorbell for the purposes of two-way audio or for doorbell notifications. Those would likely have to be handled outside of Protect.
I've been running Protect since around Christmas on a UCG Fiber with a 2TB SSD, with a single G6 Turret recording 24/7 full 4k quality. As of right now, my recording history goes back to January 19th, or about 25 days. Based on that, rough napkin math would put 6 cameras at around 8 days of continuous FHD footage, by my estimate. Protect has per-camera settings that allow you to change retention policies, as well as choose between event-based recording, continuous, or adaptive, where it reduces recording quality for the uneventful majority of the time, then records full quality during events. These options would meaningfully increase recording storage time.
While I'm currently only running a single Unifi-branded camera, I have previously added four TPLink Tapo wifi cameras to Protect as well, though you have to enable an experimental setting to add third-party cameras.
Protect allows you to set up detections based on a wide range of events, I believe partially dependent on what camera model you use and what the camera can process internally. My G6 Turret can detect motion, people, vehicles, animals, license plates, faces, burglars, packages, glass breaking, sirens, car horns, dog barking, talking, etc. You can set motion zones to filter areas of the field of view for detections, you can set privacy blackout areas, and you can disable the microphone. Can't compare detections to Ring, as I've only used Google Nest and Unifi Protect. I haven't put a huge amount of effort into managing detections beyond setting a zone so I didn't get notification spam... of which you can set push notifications and/or email notifications per detection type. It's relatively easy and responsive to click through detection events in the app. Don't know how much slower it would be on HDD storage.
As for the doorbell, I've been looking to switch from Nest to Unifi, but I'm waiting for the G6 Pro Entry. Since you can't run Ethernet, have you considered the G4 wifi doorbell? It runs off of 24V AC that's typically already running to the doorbell. If not, I'm sure you could kludge something together in Home Assistant.
As for the interface and wife-friendliness, the setup side of things can get you a bit lost, but the day-to-day usage is pretty intuitive. It's easy to pick a camera and go into the detection history or scroll through the timeline.
Because this isn't a war, as only Congress can declare war. This is just one of Trump's special military operations.
