I have a homeassistant instance connected to a no-name Z-wave thermostat. It’s been flawless for almost 10 years.

Pebble was such a hit with nerds when it was new. So far I’ve seen like 10 posts about it being open sourced and not a single comment.

I guess people either don’t remember Pebble, or remember it well enough that they realize it isn’t going to compete with modern smartwatches in terms of functionality.

Waste not want not.

In my area I see old beds thrown out pretty regularly. I try to collect the bed rails since they’re usually made from a single piece of maple or oak. I’ve made a few thresholds from them.

$6 for a dozen large eggs. $8.50 for 18 at PriceRite.

We can’t imagine why the company is upset about an extremely popular replacement firmware for their hardware

I interviewed a bunch of years ago with a company called “xmode social” (I was in desperate need of a job. I fortunately did not get that one.) They had a framework that they paid app publishers in to include in their apps. That framework collected your location data and sent it to xmode who sold that data. That was their entire business AFAIK.

There don’t need to be any shared features for companies to include shit like that in their apps. They just need a way to make the line go up.

No, clearly Apple is spying on OP and sending all that valuable tracking data into the Fediverse because they’re secretly communists. Or something.

The problem is the inability to be attracted to “regular looking” people.

The problem is that you’re shallow. That’s a personality problem. Improve your personality until you see the people around you as more than objects.

Objective–C is a strict superset of C. Anything that’s valid C can be used in an Objective–C file.

I rode a two speed kickback bicycle similar (operationally) to this for about a decade. It was the lowest maintenance bike I’ve ever owned, but the gearing was inside the rear hub and it only had a single chain. I can’t imagine that the mechanism being outside improves that.
