Sounds like depression. If you have some savings, it might be worth it to see a therapist to find out.

Or find one thing in the world to make better.

Well, yeah, although the Germans had plenty of antisemitism of their own. They didn’t need to import it.

They did, however, borrow a lot of policy cues from American Jim Crow Laws.

What kind of problems? So many others present it as virtually worry free.

If I already have a handful of WiFi devices, do you think it is worth it to replace them? Say, 4-5 switches. I’m planning to invest in a few more and a home thermostat. I certainly want to commit before buying a thermostat, since they tend to be a little more pricey.

Is there a greater danger of ZigBee not being sustainable over decades? WiFi will probably be available for the remainder of my lifetime because it is already so ubiquitous.

I think you misunderstand the phrase as I’m using it.

Time is always on someone’s side. It’s the nimble, the patient, the determined who win. MAGA is more nimble than the institutions that oppose it. It’s been more patient and focused than the opposition which has been constantly chasing after the latest shiny object of the week/month/year rather than anticipating the need for focus and unity. The bad guys are winning and they are not slowing down; we are falling further behind.

great collection! love it.

There are all sorts of mechanisms in the USA to stop this from happening as well. However, Trump spent the first term embedding loyalists in the courts and congress, so there really is not much left to stop him. If the people who are there to act as a check on presidential power are in on the game, then who is left to enforce the law?

Prosecution takes a very long time and authoritarians move very quickly. Time is not on our side.

Almost looks like the inside of a piano key

Edit: just read the hints and it kinda fits

I live in a hot climate, so it’s really the expense of air conditioning.

Small adjustments to the temperature based on whether or not we’re home, pre-cooling versus cooling during the heat of the day, etc. makes a big difference on the bill potentially.

I’ve seen some scenarios where people were able to save hundreds of dollars a year just by adjusting the timing of systems. The price of electricity can go up and down during the day.

Maybe those cases are outliers and it’s actually not worthwhile, but it seems compelling. If I can put a system in place for under $100, that will be at least as good as what I have and possibly a significant improvement, I’m interested in trying it.

So which was the easiest?

Thanks for the tip! Others have mentioned that it’s very tricky to find one that works offline without the manufacturer’s software (website, login, data collection, etc)

Wow, very detailed! Thanks

I wish the conversation happened before creating the community, but I don’t agree that locking a community immediately after creating it is the best way to build a resilient platform. Unless there is some kind of automatic link forwarding that I’m not aware of. I’m making assumptions about what “Redirect” means based on my knowledge.

Is this the best account to reach you by pm?

Tailscale is my number one app of the year. It makes everything else I do possible.

I understand this point as well. This community was created as a result of several requests in !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world from people who were unable to locate the alternative. I did not see !furiouslyinfuriating@sh.itjust.works suggested or promoted in that community, and I did not find it when I searched. Unfortunately we all know that the search built into Lemmy is not great.

Hopefully this new community will also raise the profile of the SJW one. I have included the link in the sidebar so that more people can find it. If this community proves unnecessary, I will happily close it and merge with the SJW one.

I appreciate the work you do in helping to keep the fediverse distributed. It is truly our greatest strength.

The standard will be similar to other Lemmy communities.

As with others, if this is applied in error, only providing a credible source will be necessary to reverse a removal.

Again, thanks for mentioning it. I replied to your alt that I wasn’t able to find it when searching, which is why it is now linked in the sidebar.

Thanks to your suggestion, anyone who finds !actually_infuriating@lemmy.world will also be able to find !furiouslyinfuriating@sh.itjust.works

Here’s a related question… Why is Elon Musk demanding a massive cash salary from the board rather than typical CEO compensation of stock and performance bonuses?

Likely, he understands that the company is massively overvalued due to his hype machine. He is cashing out before it fails.

As a plus, by manufacturing animosity between himself and the board, he is preloading the ammunition for when the company fails and discards him. When he leaves, the hype machine leaves with him. The stock will “crash” which really means returning to a sane market valuation. He can easily claim that the failure was due to the board interfering with his genius. The board members either know this, or are his lackies (or both). They will ride the wave along with him as long as they can.

In essence, we are witnessing the largest pump and dump scheme in history, and it is being done in the open.

Really interesting - I never used something like this but certainly see the value

Absolutely phenomenal. Great app, hosting, and development community.

It’s a good reason to start self hosting.
