I've got a wireless button with a wall-plugged speaker inside. It's all I need, as we have cameras feeding a motion-server.

I'd really want to get push notifications when the doorbell is rung, as we're not always where the bell is. And sometimes we'd like to disconnect it because the baby is sleeping and the dogs go off at the sound of the bell.

I haven't found any zigbee-replacement. I'm thinking to just put a zigbee-button and solve the chile through HA.

We've been married 12 years now. She still doesn't have a clue.

I've got to go with Sophia Hapgood.

You know how lightning never strikes twice?

Well, that's a myth. It loves to strike the same place twice. Hot air left behind after a strike is a conductor for the next one.

Yes, but now you get all the bad news streamed straight to you 24/7.

Previously you would have to pick up a newspaper or turn on the TV at the right time to hear about it.

I ran it 2003-2006ish.

Having a package manager that updates online was a game changer for Linux distributions.

I had been using slackware for 6 years prior, and there was no real update path. Best case you'd just get the latest release on CD and install it over your (hopefully) separate root partiton.

Conpiling all your stuff sounded like a good idea in the age of the architecture options at the time. Alpha, Crusoe, PowerPC, SPARC and MIPS were all viable options.

I wonder if those DevOps cost $72M/h.

Otherwise I have an idea that might save AWS some money.

I have two machines running the latest kernels on EndeavourOS. One with a Radeon RX 7900 XTX has no issues.

The other one has a Radeon 6650 XT, which since a week or two ago starts getting kworker threads stuck while throwing errors about fence queues. Load can go up to the hundreds (while there's no real load, but just blocked threads), until the machine crashes.

As I recall there was an amdgpu firmware update around the time it started happening, but the changelog on the amdgpu kernel driver hints at solving similar issues.

Back in these days you'd install your distribution and stay there until the next major release. There were no online software repositiories for updates.

And exploits were plentiful. It was an easier time if you were up for mischief.

A mistake is when your foot slips and you hit the accelerator instead of the brake.

She made the choice to take pink cocaine and get behind the wheel. Choices have consequences. These choices endangered and killed people. Some rehabilitation closed off from the rest of society sounds in order.

Apparently she was already driving with a suspended license, so there seems to be a history of bad choices.
