  • They're clearly under the control of Big Train, Loom Lobbyists and the Global Gutenberg Printing Press Conspiracy.

  • I've still not forgiven them for prematurely cancelling BoJack Horseman.

    • Bed Occupancy Sensor?

    Jump

  • I'm a bit late to the conversation here, but I bought four of these car seat occupancy sensors - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/316523892197 - and installed them between the mattresses, one at butt level and the other at shoulder level on both sides of the bed - and connected them to an ESP32 on ESPHome. Works a treat. They're sensitive enough to momentarily disengage if someone rolls over or shuffles about if you need that, otherwise a generous bounce detection allowance smooths it out.

    • The list of reasons

    Jump

  • I've seen YaST used at a distance and I think it's up to the job of managing servers and headless systems but, seriously, it's not even close to Group Policy. I not trying to sound dismissive of alternatives - I really do want a FOSS replacement - but it is hard to overstate how flexible and granular Group Policy is.

    • The list of reasons

    Jump

  • I feel like a stuck record saying this, but if there was a serious contender to Group Policy on Linux I honestly think Windows in the workplace would be dead in five years.

    • The Pebble Has Been Brought Back

    Jump

  • One pro of Withings is that they're French, so their policies on data in general are pretty great.

    One con of Withings is that they're French, so it's not actually pronounced how you think.

    • All for this.

  • Yes please. And cheese. And chips.

  • Fuck your cake. Fuck your natural resources. Fuck your bilungualism, affable manner, vast wildernesses and extensive waters. Keep them. We don't want them.

    WE JUST WANT THE POUTINE.

    • The Pebble Has Been Brought Back

    Jump

  • One thing about the Pebble - and, I assume, these watches - is that they didn't have WiFi or LTE, only Bluetooth. So it wasn't possible for them to do any communication except through the apps already running on your phone. So, broadly, it's a no.

  • Preordered here too, for all the same reasons. I went for the Time2, even though it's not due to ship until later. I've waited nearly ten years, I can wait another six months...

    • "You should probably just throw it away"

    Jump

  • "Trade it in or recycle it" basically means "your best bet to solve this problem is to pass it on to someone else, who will pass it on to someone else, and so on until it arrives at landfill".

    • How it started vs. How it's going

    Jump

  • If you started from first principles and made a car or, in this case, told an flailing intelligence precursor to make a car, how long would it take for it to create ABS? Seatbelts? Airbags? Reinforced fuel tanks? Firewalls? Collision avoidance? OBD ports? Handsfree kits? Side impact bars? Cupholders? Those are things created as a result of problems that Karl Benz couldn't have conceived of, let alone solve.

    Experts don't just have skills, they have experience. The more esoteric the challenge, the more important that experience is. Without that experience you'll very quickly find your product fails due to long-solved problems leaving you - and your customers - in the position of being exposed dangers that a reasonable person would conclude shouldn't exist.
