It's impossible to target all of them, yes. But that's why BDS creates a targeted list of the worst offenders to concentrate consumer boycott pressure.

Currently the BDS list includes 8 targets, including HP, Sabra, Siemens, Puma, and Soda stream. https://bdsmovement.net/get-involved/what-to-boycott

I played the beta for 20 minutes and was so disappointed I immediately launched sea of thieves to recover.

It just felt like a cash grab done as cheaply as possible.

Me: Surely they left their brights on accidentally flashes my brights to alert them

Them: turns on actual brights blinding me for the next 30 seconds

Don't forget Kid Diddler Rock

I don't have any Haier products but as a Chamberlain/MyQ garage door owner I can relate all too well. At least ratgdo is an option for the garage doors, I doubt there's anything nearly as simple for the Haier users.

Fuck these companies.

Yeah, how is "end" in god tier and "home" in replace tier? They're 2 sides of the same coin

It can be done right: local only connections (no cloud), segmented vlan for iot devices with strict firewall rules, Internet access blocked for anything that doesn't need it, etc.

Unfortunately that takes a lot of knowledge and effort. The cloud based devices that phone home every few minutes are preconfigured and just work, so most people will just use that and not think about it.

After talking about end times and signs of end times the bible literally says

Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. (Matthew 24:34).

Christians need to read their own book.

What times your lights are on or off can expose more than you might think over time. It reveals when you're gone for work, your sleep schedule, how many days a year you spend at home vs traveling/elsewhere, when you stay up late, etc.

But it gets worse. If you give Hue your email or install the app then now you can be uniquely id'd across other products. Hue will sell that data to some advertising agency, who also buys data from Google, Facebook, etc. Now your usage data from other systems can be combined with the Hue data and used to more even more accurately track your day and behaviors.

This stuck out to me too. Why are you fixing things on their PR? If their changes broke the tests then they need to make the changes to fix them before merging

I moved away from "Gaming headsets" years ago and I don't think I'll ever go back. Bad audio quality, connection issues, and poor longevity are rampant problems.

I'm an advocate for a desktop mic and a nice set of headphones. I use a blue yeti snoball and a pair of Sony Wh1000-xm3's. I am considering upgrading to some open back Sennheisers though.

The main disadvantage is that you can't walk to the kitchen/bathroom and keep talking in discord but it's well worth it for audio quality and longevity.

From my experience in another tech company it's not even the direct managers that want people back, it's all c-suite and up that are trying to force it. Makes it easy to poach talent for any companies offering full remote though
