My bestie is on the other coast.

Most of our conversations are us talking about life, what we think about things, venting about work and our loved ones and being as ridiculous and unfocused as we always are.

She was also the Best Woman in my wedding.

I feel like it’s a matter of finding friends you have friend chemistry with rather than people you kinda get along with while doing a singular thing

Interesting, I may make that my next tech project, first I need to configure my lighting console.

Awesome! I avoided going the matter route because it’s very very new to me except at a surface level.

How is it for you? Something worth switching to or not yet?

Man, I’m really sorry! My experience was super quick and easy. I added the hub (via wifi) then I added my temp sensor and added the Integration to home assistant.

Are you able to factory reset your hub and just start from scratch? Frustrating to do but if it leads to ease of use maybe worth considering?

Something to consider then!

I’m currently using the AQIA brand Bluetooth temperature and humidity sensor for my basement. Aqia is just rebranded Tuya products sold via microcenter but they work fantastically for my purposes.

Not sure what you’re looking at but I’m using aqara’s Bluetooth devices, and it’s working without a hitch. Worth considering Bluetooth devices and a Bluetooth bridge if the device you’re looking at has a Bluetooth version.

That’s a fair way to think about it and I think I’d agree with you on it’s better that someone is on Linux even fedora than Windows but for myself I’d take windows over fedora. Appreciate you engaging respectfully.

It’s new to me, reading up on it now. Seems cool given the goals and it’s the OG CentOS guy. I wasn’t the biggest CentOS fan, but I liked it more than fedora for sure. It does still have similar issue like FHS violations but given it’s not a redhat product I’d be more willing to use it.

Layout of where they put their files had (the last one I actually had to dig into a fedora system) multiple violations of the FHS. I’m very big on standards since things work well when you’re not violating standards.

Obviously, people don’t have to follow the FHS and redhat definitely doesn’t but doing so gives more of a nice consistent experience to any technician, sys admin or sys engineer.

Not sure if anyone else will think it’s good enough but I do.

Redhat as a company acts like a parasite on open source, producing a product that is garbage which they then charge money for their support plans. Have an issue with their offering? Fuck you. In addition to that, I absolutely beyond a doubt HATE how they do their filesystem and just willy nilly do whatever the fuck they think is best instead of following community established patterns and designs. Top it off with, who was the first to adopt systems? Redhat.

Stepping away slightly from that, have you dug into ansible’s internal before? Actual fucking idiot decisions. Have an issue with tower or AAP (stupid fucking name) good luck getting it fixed. According to their documentation you can have vaulted vars in a cars file with plaintext cars. According to reality, that’s causes intermittent failures and has for the past 8 years. There have been SEVERAL GitHub issues submitted but it’s still not fixed.

Fuck redhat and fuck their bullshit like fedora. If I wanted to use a garbage distro, I’d at least want to use one that isn’t pretending to be decent.

I would sooner use Windows before using Fedora. Fortunately, Linux Mint or Ubuntu exist instead.

I’ll pass on the js interpreter. I don’t feel like learning the arcane runes.

To your point, Python handles those by giving you 0.300000004 might have missed a zero but valid point nonetheless

Python has no issues representing

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3

as 1. I just opened a python interpreter, imported absolutely no libraries and typed

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 enter and got 1 as the result. Seems like if python could do that, JavaScript should be able to as well.

My Internet doesn’t work, I’ve spent a shit ton of time trying to solve it but I’m not going to post any actual logs or error messages. I’m just going to complain about my unique issue.

Good luck. Enjoy whatever you end up using.

We’ve not talking about colonizing though, we’re discussing invasive species.

Given humanity (Homo Sapiens) is currently thought to have evolved in Africa, that is the natural human habitat. All other habitats we’ve created we can be thought of as an invasive species.

Please don’t virtue signal when it’s off topic like this, it’s really annoying.

Truthfully they were also invasive. We’re only native to Africa

Heeey I am also a libertarian, I just tend towards left libertarian. Back to the point of discussion, I find it difficult to ha e a meaningful conversation with the tankies or in general anyone from lemmy.ml . The discussions tend to lack any real data and feel entirely vibe based OR it’s apologist bullshit for Russia.

Like it’s cool if you like communism and have a philosophy based around why you think it’ll help humanity. I can politely disagree but still listen and discuss. It’s quite another to just be a complete dipshit and say “Ukraine had the invasion coming” (actual quote I’ve seen).

It’s what Ive come to expect from the lemmy.ml instance and I finally blocked the entire instance.

Are you developing your opinions based on vibes or have you actually audited their software yourself (you are free to do so both client and federation server code)?

If you audited it, have you produced an actual report with metrics and points of reference for your data points?
