Quite a different result from what the polls were predicting.

As a British person that's something I thought I'd never see.

Arrested on his birthday too.

Well that's something I thought I would never see.

The school thing is a good point. We called hot meals at school dinners, that were served by dinner ladies.

But we also had packed lunches that we ate out of lunchboxes.

BPAs have been shown to absorbed through the skin. Headphones are increasingly worn for long, continuous periods. Unlike other plastic objects which are handled for shorter periods.

I’m not entirely convinced of the danger myself (tinnitus seems a bigger worry for headphone use to me), but I thought it was a matter worthy of further discussion.

Tea. Dinner only used for Sundays or Christmas.

Mostly Zigbee. Depending on the sensor, location and activity I'm getting between 6-18 months per battery, but I do have a lot of sensor, so there's a regular churn of batteries.

Having passive sensors for smart home use would save me lot of time and money changing batteries. Interesting to see where this goes.

I didnt realise how rich some of my friends were until I went to their house. The uniform made us all equals in the classroom

Uniforms have never done that in my experience, because there are plenty of wealth signifiers outside of uniforms kids will still notice (pencil cases, bags, PE trainers, mobile phones etc), and even the uniforms themselves are not worn equally. The rich kids have clean uniforms that get regular replaced each term, the poor ones had dirty and ill fitting hand-me-downs.

For a lot of people most of their content isn’t even 1080p. Plenty of people watching DVDs and many TV channels only broadcast in SD.

Display technology has long outpaced content delivery.

In a lot of cases “AI” is slapped on as marketing buzzword for anything with even a simple algorithm controlling it.

We got a new “AI” washing machine last month. As far as I can tell it the same as last years model just with some of the auto settings renamed to something AI.

A proper permissions system for entities has long been one of my most desired features for Home Assistant. It should be possible to set visibility and control for each entity and user.

Trying to do control access via dashboards as always seems the wrong way around to me.
