That makes it useless. I hope you figure it out

Even then - my alarms never stopped working, even while I had no way to change them

I am using the same network - that’s no problem

I have to ask the stupid question but are they in pause? What if you hit the button on top?

I’ll have to try Music Assistant - I use HA and the Spotify app

As someone who is not a musician - crushing all those instruments into one crazy thin form factor may allow me to play around with music but I’d never claim to be a musician

As a software engineer, I appreciate that crushing all sorts of dev tools into a graphical representation like Scratch, let’s many people get some taste of programming, but I’m not worried that they’re somehow implying it will take my job or my creativity

Even if we stipulate that, I’m not convinced it’s a big deal. The software field continues to grow like crazy and we can never find enough people to hire. If ai gets good enough to take the place of some of that hiring, fantastic!

Definitely curious as well, but so far haven’t gotten around to trying

I used to do that but it would constantly nag until I connected it

Fwiw, I’ve never had a lack of heat from my cars heat pump. It even warms up faster than a gasoline engine would. Most importantly, I can turn it on remotely to get warm before I get in the car. I never had that with a gas engine

Parent survival pack!

No, it’s been years since I printed anything, and I’m not willing to start now.

• I’m coming up on three years with my current employer and never felt the need to even find a printer
• I was planning to get a laser printer now that I no longer need color for school projects…. But what would I want to print?

Huge news - one step closer to Matter becoming something that matters

Don’t minimize those strengths. Init.d scripts are something you can figure out just knowing a bit of shell script, or historical knowledge from before there was an internet. For something I rarely use, why do I need to learn something more complex to do the same thing - I either haven’t been sold on all the new functionality they piled in or do not need it. After all these years crowing about the Unix/linux way being many independent flexible tools that can work together, why do we now have this all-in-one monstrosity that might as well have come directly from Microsoft?

I can’t physically charge a car at home. … and I (usually) can’t charge at their office.

Certainly this is key. Your car is sitting unused for hours at these locations, so even a relatively slow charge would be convenient. We definitely have work to do deploying these everywhere.

My point is more that every workplace, almost every home already has sufficient electrical service to charge for most car uses. We have the technology and it’s naturally broken down into many smaller less expensive projects. It’s much easier to build this out than to create an entirely new infrastructure around disposable batteries, redefine all cars and then scale out. And the technology already exists. But we still have to do it

Maybe some of it is literal word for word translation vs accounting for grammatical differences but …

Anything, there’s northern chocolate and southern chocolate, it’s 6, go back to your school in Paimpont (I have nothing against Paimpont, it’s very pimpant).

I’m really surprised this is the first time I’ve seen Africa as two continents. The Great Rift Valley is well known but I just hadn’t heard going the next logical step

I hope that’s really the gibberish my browser’s translate function tells me it is

And New Zealand is its own continent! I like that definition

Maybe but so far:

• I usually charge overnight at home
• I’ve never waited in line at a supercharger.

The destination chargers at work do get a line but we coordinate over slack so you never have to actually wait.

The trick is to get those home chargers deployed everywhere. This is what actually decided me on the futilebess of swappable batteries. Almost everyone could use a level 1 charger, but even a full level 2 charger is the same as a stove circuit or an air condioner. It’s just not a big deal for most people’s electrical service and level 1 can be anywhere. Look at how difficult it’s been to get these deployed despite them being so much cheaper and simpler than what you’re proposing. How will we possibly spend tens to hundreds of billions and decades to build out swappable battery infrastructure if a few billion in charging circuits to mostly existing service is so difficult?

Who benefits from seappable battery infrastructure? Really it’s mostly the same companies that profit from gasoline infrastructure. I’m convinced many proponents are just these companies wanting to continue business as usual. However with plugins, they don’t need to exist

I do have that adapter, but you immediately realize phone screens suck when you mirror them on a big TV. Unfortunately it didn’t want to use it as a secondary screen - I don’t know if that has changed with modern iPhones/iPads: I should dig that up and try again
