So maybe don't release a model until you have at least a decent amount of units? Still doesn't explain why cars are any different than other products that are scalped. Why are they not lobbying to create laws against such practices?

How about the manufacturer builds enough stock so scalping makes no sense? I believe that if I buy a product I am entitled to do whatever I want with it as long as it doesn't brake the law. I hate scalping too, no1 did anything when it happened to GPUs or consoles or toilet paper during covid, so why are cars special?

Vvvvrrrrooooommm

Oh, you would pay in blood if you tried

I think you can set a custom user agent in about:config, but obviously isn't as conveniant as a quick toggle from an extension.

Firefox nightly on android supported desktop extensions for quite some time. It wasn't that easy to install them, but once I did they worked fine. Maybe a bit more slugish than on pc, but that's expected given the resources limitations on mobile.

F-droid, too bad it can't be found on play store. Google wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot like that

Is that a problem? What... Are you ... Deadphobic?!? Now you're just offending poor Dave..../s

Sure, but in that case you pay for the OS through the overly inflated price of the device that brings mediocre warranty and pathetic options for repair. It's a tradeoff.

I agree, subscriptions are stupid. But for now I am still using my windows 7 key on windows 11 so they were more than reasonable up until now.
I could see them adding windows as part of Microsoft 365 package they sell to businesses. Companies always had a different policy when it comes to software, that's where most of the software companies make most of their money. It's why piracy was allowed for so long, consumers get used to the software through the pirated version, then they demand it at work which can't use pirated software obviously.

Except that you can keep upgrading windows or just install linux and be up to date with the security patches for like 10+ years, your phone runs out of support in like 5-6 years in the best case and then good luck using these banking apps securely.

There are many devices that use 2g for data, not just energy meters. ATMs, card payment terminals, alarms, gps trackers, all sorts of qpplications that don't need a lot of data and can benefit from the better coverage/range of 2g.

You'd be surprised how many legitimate email are sent with failed SPF. Even Microsoft sometimes doesn't update their MX records and the SPF fails.

The guide on the official website has a few recommendations for network zigbee coordinators as well: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/adapters/ I cannot recommend any as I am using a USB coordinator. But you can also jump on the official Zigbee2Mqtt discord and ask for recommendations there, you can find it linked under support on the website.

I recommend you join that discord as there might be issues that come up and there are a few people on the server that could help you with the troubleshooting.

One thing you have to keep in mind is that you can't place the zigbee coordinator near other 2.4GHz networks like wifi APs/extenders, bluetooth adapters or microwaves. Well, you can, but you will run into many issues.

This is the way

After you disconnect the VPN the interface likely goes down so qbit falls back to the actual connection I think.

If you do decide on the sonoff stick make sure you get the P version, not the E version as the later is under experimental support and better for ZHA. You can also have a look at the other zigbee recommended adapters for Zigbee2mqtt: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/adapters/

Zigbee devices are already cloudless local devices, you don't have to flash them unless there are alternative firmwares that add functionality you desire.

They also need a coordinator to comunicate with HA. You can get a zigbee stick, depending on how you plan on integrating these devices there are some chipsets you should look for. If you want the easy route go for ZHA and maybe the skyconnect stick, otherwise you can go with zigbee2mqtt route which supports more devices and is more customizable and look at their list of recommended coordinators.

Most mains powered zigbee devices act as router and extend the newtork, not all of them do and not all that do are good at it. Some manufacturers use custom implementations of zigbee like Aqara which can cause issues.

I use zigbee2mqtt with a sonoff P stick and I am happy with it, it's not as plug&play as ZHA, but it's easy to add support to new devices if they are not already supported.

Try this: https://12ft.io/ Or any other website for removing paywalls. Alternatively you can try to block the popup yourself using ublock origin.

Idk how you got from a tool that helps track your belongings to a tool who's sole purpose is injuring and killing. Pretty far away from each other
