Insurgencency operation math: 10 insurgents before - 2 killed insurgents = now you have 20 insurgents

IKEA pairing somehow different than Zigbee binding?

Ikea pairing is Zigbee standard group binding via touchlink initiation. What is different is Home assistant, which doesnt really handle Zigbee groups.

But I'm also curious about the option in Home Assistant to bind devices.

If you mean zigbee group binding, in my experience Home Assistant doesnt handle Zigbee groups well. There is technical capacity and group manager, but to me it seems it doesnt correctly bind all of the action clusters and so on. Plus most finally the UI is very confusing etc. (That or I'm dumb and can't get it working right)

Home assistant handles grouped devices primarily inside its own logic and talks to them as individual devices. Which leads for example to stuff like non synchronous action. I don't think Zigbee groups either guarantee synchronicity, but it is pretty instant since it is single mesh wide broadcast of "whole group this, do this". Where as Home assistant send say ten different messages to ten different Zigbee devices. Thus there is delay and difference, when each device receives their individual command.

Most dedicated Zigbee hubs like trådfri and hue use actual Zigbee groups. When moving devices between "rooms" or whatever each call it, it sends actual configuration message of "change your internal registered group identity" to the lamps, remote controls and so on.

The important part of these are the "do, don't" orders of business conduct. Then on top small fine. Hence it isn't merely cost of doing business. The real stinger is "you can't offer choice of tracking or pay up. You must offer free choice to decline for consent based operations".

If they ignore the "do's and dont's" compliance order, then the big fines come out.

Is it April fools? please still be April's fools, checks calendar, dammit, not April's fools still. It's actually news.

Atleast for android and Bluetooth. Not an absolute matter protocol thing, but probably "normal android allows that only woth google signed app". Some OS access thing and so on. "You don't get to access that Bluetooth matter discovery call mode etc. without official sign off, security hurdur".

Since matter has ways to connected fully without Bluetooth depending on device. Bluetooth is just the easy simple way, instead of having to hunt for pairing QR symbols or number codes. Go to the other device makers app to activate pairing mode or generate one off pairing codes and so on.

That is what juries are for. Judges are supposed to be the specialist technocrats of legal system. Juries are then for "feelings of the society" matters. Most importantly nobody has to campaign or owe anyone large sums of money to get into jury.

Electing judges in the first place undermines trust in neutrality of the courts. Since it undermines neutrality of the courts. It makes judges make campaign promises they have to keep to not anger people and makes them indebted to their campaign financiers.

Like how is this supposed shocking new news just because someone spent finally even more money on a judicial election race. Word combination which shouldn't exist in the first place.

Per the articles comments she takes the exact right approach to media owning "I don't get involved", hire good responsible editor, give enough resources to do even deep investigative stuff and leave journalists to do their job. Subscriptions follow from good credible journalism then.

Provide umbrella of "you can't threaten the editor with firing or lawsuit", since she won't fire the editor and the company has enough resourcing to fight of law suits with good legal team.

Not like Mathias and Moritz Döpfner weren't already a problem. So it isn't much extra to add Thiel. The editorial line won't change, since Döpfner have similar opinions to Thiel themselves.

Politicos problem isn't Thiel investing in Axrl Springer media, it is them being part of Axel Springer media in the first place.

Good of him to notice, the campaign seems to be working then. Thus carry on and continue demonstrating and boycotting people.

Bold of you to assume he over ends up fully sober and doesn't just take "corrective series" first thing next morning to make the hangover and withdrawal go away.

How can we actually use it?

We don't.

I was being sarcastic.

The small problem of it not actually being intelligent and thus not being rationally reliable. Gonna fix it on the next release for sure. ;)

Which is exactly why people were "this is going to bite us in the behind", when patriot act and so on was originally done and so on.

Way easier to change "who is terrorist", than "give us authorization to do this new thing" in the first place.

strong vibes of UNHAND ME HUMAN THIS SECOND OR ELSE ..... ......

No bravery by James Blunt, so I can play it at endless loop at world leaders.

Yet again with the media, the astronauts aren't stuck on ISS. It is blatantly false to headline such. Haven't been since ehhh was it November. They have a perfectly working lifeboat capsule with seats. They could return any moment now should it be deemed necessary.

Their mission profile got changed. They are now part of the next expedition crew and as such their normal schedule return depends on, when replacement expedition arrives to maintain continuity of expeditions. Couple other astronauts expeditions slots got bumped to make this happen.

These are professional astronauts. Being part of expedition crews is pinnacle achievement of one's career. Not to mention with both of them given their age and time already in space, this is their last space mission. I doubt they much mind their last mission is instead of week long test flight of a new capsule, an 8 month long long stay space station expedition. Ending ones in space career in style with a long stay expedition doing experiments and studies on ISS.

They decided it already couple years ago. However refresh cycles are such, that only now it starts to arrive to times where changes physically manifest. Another thing which they already said back then and kinda apologised for alas sorry, changes have to wait until next refresh or next generation of the vehicle depending on timing.

Like I guess this is official official now, but design team lead or someone like that said ages ago they would be going back to more physical buttons.

Because they can't without backdooring the software? Just like they also refuse to co-operate with Swedish government and threatened to leave the market should Sweden try to force them.

You know Russian spies can also use TOR onion routing and so on.

As for phishing there is nothing Signal can do about someone scanning a signal contact sharing QR and adding it to their contracts list beyond informative "hey are you really sure, really really sure you want to add this contact". If user trusts someone they shouldn't, no amount of app policy protections help. Or maybe they manage to shish them to scan and approve "share account to another device". Again nothing Signal can do about that.
