It does really depend on where you live. For my area, the same sign means vote no against fascist proposals.
Going off of SMCF, it really depends on how liquid you are and what country you're in.
If you're in the US, I have SoFi and 4.5%/APY on my savings account. Gotta have your direct deposit or move $5k monthly into the checking. If you can swing that, it's a great bank. I think Ally does similar.
Most major brick and mortar banks are shite for accruing interest money.
Whenever someone says that, my reply is "So is a fire. Go jump in one and let me know how it feels." 🤣
Highly disagree that Z-Wave is dead. There are many companies, especially Zooz, coming out with new products all the time. Yes, ZigBee is far cheaper but I've had the worst reliability issues with ZigBee and moved everything to Z-Wave. Zero issues with connectivity or batteries dying too fast.
But that's the beauty and strength of HA. Openess and selection.
Poorly worded but your wifi manufacturer. They put in stuff to "protect" you or "help monitor" your home but all it really is spyware.
Of course it'd be my former hometown that tries this shit. 🤦♂️
The iMessage lock-in is too real for some of us. I know some iPhone users who won't even install FB Messenger (I know, I don't use it either. Fuck the Zuck) because it's not Apple/iMessage. I finally got my family on Signal and "OMG! We can send videos and pictures now!" Yeah, been saying it for years lol.
Less that they don't want other companies using it and more so they don't want other other companies translating it into something they can use.
Basically, translating an instruction manual from German to Spanish.
No one is breaking any copyright laws or IP to do this. It's the same how Steam created Proton to run Windows games on Linux. It's translating code from one language to another that's readable.
If Linux becomes the dominant gaming platform for gaming (not gonna happen, wish it would tho), there is no reason for a "Proton for Windows" could/should emerge.
Job site got canceled, away from home, nothing else to do. Spent the last few hours cleaning up and "perfecting" my Home Assistant. I'm sure I'll do it again in a few days.
That's one thing that's always confused me. Do we actually have the phone in our heads or is it just immersion? Cause NPCs are shown using phones like we have today.
I mean, technically you could build it yourself and just use PS/X controllers. I know it's a lot more work than just buying it premade but at least you could fulfill your own dream in the meantime.
Oh, I'm not shitting on Valve or anything. Just explaining how they could be called a casino.
