Technical people can struggle when a choice isn’t a zero or a one.

I mean, I interpreted that as acknowledgement that Lemmy is still 1% the size of Reddit, for example.

… I’m shocked. I thought all development on subsonic had dried up. I used it and dsub for literal years, but switched to Plex after it seemed I was paying for nothing. :(

Interesting. The back of a tube of sensodyne in my medicine cabinet right now says that stannous fluoride may stain teeth. Hard to understand why a 2013 article would contradict a 2023 toothpaste warning.

Also stains your teeth.

Yes. Cyberpunk and I were oil and water when it was first released. The 2.0 patch made it a different game, and for some magical reason, I jive with it now. It’s one of the best realized worlds. I just finished my first playthrough and I’ll buy the DLC and play again soon!

“Sleep Timer” by CARECON GmbH. Its indispensable for adding a generic sleep timer to any audio or video that does not have such a feature.

Which one? I use “White Noise” by TMSOFT. It’s UI is from 5-7 years ago, but it still works really well. It’s mostly a background noise maker–and has lots of variety–rather than strictly white noise.

Well, yeah. Maybe that was part of the problem? I don’t know.

I’m really glad it’s working out for you. I have mine still all set up, using the hue hub, but I’m not sure I have a real compelling need to use anything HA offers, yet. It just sits there.

What do you do that you carry special pliers every day?

I looked online and resetting the bulbs seemed to require a special dimmer switch or something? It doesn’t appear to be possible with just the bulb.

Is this article ai generated? It sucks. Are the toxic products all PFAS products? It sure insinuates as much, but doesn’t actually say that. There are lots and lots of “toxic” chemicals; there are over 10k PFAS compounds alone, and toxicity for those is being claimed at ppt levels, which is often lower than can be detected by test methods. Therefore, it’s no wonder they’ll take it slow, rather than eliminate large swaths of the economy without ready replacements.

Terrible article.

World of Warcraft. 2005 was a hell of a time for that game.

I had trouble resetting the bulbs. Pairing seemed random, though perhaps that’s because resetting was random. Also, the need for an mqtt broker was not intuitive. Overall, the entire process was more complicated than ZHA.

P.s. what is that paid android app??

Oh my! That’s the one thing I didn’t seriously try: flashing new firmware on the Sonoff dongle. I briefly looked into it, but I was having so much other trouble by that point it seemed futile.

That you seriously needed to perform this step is just awful. I’m so sorry!

That’s simultaneously encouraging and discouraging to hear!

Same. When I bought mine, I didn’t know or realize what I was doing. That was like 7 years ago, though.

Did you get the “P” or “E” dongle? I heard the “P” one has better compatibility with z2m–which is why I got that one–but the “E” one may have a stronger wireless signal?

I really appreciate this comment. I didn’t have this knowledge or perspective. Thanks for sharing. I’ll be patient.
