if they fly a bit higher or lower, they will avoid the worst of it.

I must be too old school because my first thought when i read this was “with an old solenoid lying around and a few lines of code, an AtTiny could strike a key on the bluetooth keyboard, waking the laptop!

using money to project their influence and values overseas, sport-washing and peddling fossil fuels…

putting the blast into oblast

😆

yeah but it means we can continue to exploit fossil fuels for now in the hopes that some future technology makes it all ok

fortunately this only affects mercury based lamps which no one in their right mind wants to deal with when they blow anyway. laser, led and xenon/halide projectors are unaffected and have been on the market for ten years.

If a cryptographic claim/validation is provided then anyone refuting the claims can be seen to be a bad faith actor. Voters are one dimension of that problem but mainstream media being able to validate election videos is super important both domestically, but also internationally as the global community needs to see efforts being undertaken to preserve free and fair elections. This is especially true given the consequences if america’s enemies are seen to have been able to steer the election.

ok cool, so what is your alternative?

Recipe for instant good Lemmy community

Effort required from you: 1 hour

1. Sign up two or three Lemmy accounts. 5 minutes
2. Go to a niche reddit community and grab half a dozen good submissions in the last year or so. Post them to your Lemmy with different accounts. 10 minutes
3. Now for the hard part. Go and create some good quality original submissions. Work hard on 2-3 good pieces of content that don’t exist on reddit. 35 minutes.
4. Post links to those submissions on reddit. 5 minutes
5. Spend a few seconds voting up and engaging with any commenters in your new community. 5 minutes

Even simple upvotes from your few accounts can catalyse engagement and make the community start to come together.

I operate a rooftop solar power station. While I have scripted all the individual components like battery management, Inverters and the various sinks (for where the power goes when it’s not needed immediately) using Grafana to get alerts, I use automation to activate the various scenes and settings to maximise the useful power I get from the system.

have a look at Shelley smart devices. They have a wifi button that’s fully compatible with Home Assistant. Not the cheapest in the world but the quality is excellent. No Zigbee needed.

I don’t understand why that’s not the case in other places

the auto industry lobby.

you might have to install OSMC in a proxmox virtual machine if you can’t do a bare metal install.

re malaka you pay tax money for services of this kind, it is not free

i’ve got one and hacked it with an ESP32. it’s awesome, but it’s not a CO2 sensor, it detects fine particles in the air.

fucking based.

do you have a gas meter? surely it would be simpler to capture the operation of the meter either electronically if it’s a smart meter or optically if it has a moving part or dial?

Even if your heating is gas it should be possible to disaggregate that usage by measuring the consumption over a minute or so.

I was for sure that a giant living there would put the town on the map. i guess not!

I visited Bemidji once on my way to Voyager national park and thought it was really nice. Do americans consider it not a great place to live?
