With a bit of luck, native RTC support means 2-way comms using reolink doorbells is close at hand.

I once changed a friend's autocorrect from "regards" to "lots of love".

And I somehow managed to keep my mouth shut long enough for a lecturer to get a very funny email.

People apparently rub them with IPA.

I need to have a try of this, as I regularly burn through 2032s.

20 years, for a more serious answer.

I found it frustrating at school when my history teacher finished at Afghanistan, with no discussion on how it related to the current situation.

I'll just re-share mine from last time.
I tend to use the Horizontal Stack. On a mobile device, I just get one stack per line.
And on bigger screens, I get multiple stacks to make use of space.

General "Going out" page:

Internet speedtest page:

I'll write a quick gist for anyone coming along:

One gas boiler in the house, each room has a smart TRV.
PIR sensor to set room presence, each window has an opening mag sensor. HASS has a general presence sensor set.

Each room's temperature is targeted based on presence and window status:
For each room, if person is home at all, and has been in the room for 5 mins, and the window is closed, TRV to 19, boiler on if <19.
If the room presence is negative and the window is closed, drop TRV target to 16.
If the window is open, drop the TRV target to 7.

There is a little more detail that that in the article, but that's the basics.

Awesome work, thankyou for taking the time to do this.

I too love a metal USB stick for the keychain, and my old DTSE9 could do with a refresh!

Big bus.
We know they're paying you off with day savers, don't deny it!

I still remember when they cut their bitrates and lowered video quality.
They denied it entirely, people proved that CR was full of shit.
So CR responded by...Attacking the people who proved the streams were lower bitrate than before.

I can only speak from a UK perspective, but most home ADSL/VDSL/Fibre providers don't have limits, other than "if your usage is tanking the network, we'll ask you to knock it off" type clauses.

Most providers are also signed up to an agreement that if your speed drops 50% below the agreed speed on the package on average, they'll either give you refunds, or let you out of the contract.

The only ones that throttle are the bargain basement operators aimed at people who don't care, and one otherwise very competent provider that for some unexplainable reason only gives 1TB by default, charging an extra £10 for 10TB.

And I guess there is also a pricing step up to guaranteed bandwidth. For business use, they tend to be things like 1gbits headline, 500mbit guaranteed burst, 100mbit guaranteed sustained.

From my experience, they're "Hanging around outside the chip shop" gulls.

"Wololo"

"Diddja laak tha'?"

He was made sticky by vicky.

He's having a little more fun in the original.

That doesn't sound very typical.

The way to tell so often seems to be if someone has called it AI or Machine Learning.

AI? "I put this through chatgpt" (or "The media department has us by the balls")

ML? "I crunched a huge amount of data in a huge amount of ways, and found something interesting"

It's like if you went to church, and the vicar said:
"You know what? I don't fancy delivering this sermon with moral guidance. Lets just sing 10 hymns in a row."

You'd need steel chestnuts to even attempt such a thing!
