I love to hear about a Canadian alternative.

Well Thread allows devices to require internet connectivity to pair. It also allows devices to fetch firmware updates from the manufacturer. And it allows features to be locked to their specific app. Thread and Matter are more complex to setup self-hosted style; it makes no difference when you use official hubs though. Thread doesn’t have many device types and manufacturers available.

Zigbee does not require or work over the internet, no trust required. It is very easy to setup self-hosted. There is a Zigbee everything made by everyone from large companies to random brandless places.

Zigbee is my preference as a result of the internet connectivity requirement. I do not trust random manufacturers to not brick my devices when they go out of business or choose to release a competing product.

Yeah, I also am not confident in my ability to find asd hire a competent person to manage the cars, or the money for that matter.

The 20 million doesn’t even have to be invested until one can look into tax implications because it can just sit still in an account or under a bed; not so much for the cars.

Shouldn’t this be NSFL? It’s that possible to mark it Lemmy?

Where the heck would I store five cars worth millions of dollars.

How the hell would I find a buyer who would reliably pay me those millions of dollars without ripping me off or stealing it before I could sell it.

I live in Canada. Those cars would disintegrate before I got them to somewhere capable of storing them.

I would much rather have $20 million now in my account. Even in cash would be manageable.

They also for a long while showed ads in the interface despite premium. I confirmed with support thes cancelled.

Personally, I use headscale (self-hosted tailscale) that is open to the internet. Then my phone and all other devices use tailscale clients to connect to that. All my other services are accessed through the tailscale magic DNS service.

Nothing except headscale is open to the internet, and I can access anything I need on the server and other devices. It also doesn’t just route All traffic through my server, only the stuff to other tailscale nodes.

Then just recently I’ve been using Nginx proxy manager and my DNS to make nicer names instead of memorizing a dozen ports for random services I host :p

That will be the go to. I’m just procrastinating the migration.

Not that I know of. I was just going to not install them.

Actually I hear Graphene installation on a Pixel is nearly unbrickable and has a nice user friendly website.

I watched a video of it and was reminded of the old Limera1n/Blackrain/etc IOS jailbreak days. There was one where you just went to a website and swiped to jailbreak then your idevice rebooted and you were jailbroken.

Super cool. I’ll have to keep that in mind for behind my kitchen wall 🤔

:O it’s hooked to the tap and a drain I assume? How big is that?

Fuck you Google. I won’t do further updates on my Pixel and the moment I run into an issue I’ll move operating systems or phones if required. Half my apps don’t come from Google Play and I don’t want the developers to have to register with Google for anything.

Mmm. I use paperless mobile but I will try FairScan. Thank you.

I would much rather he call out how much they make and the fact that they’re getting a pay raise in a cost of living crisis.

Not true. Alcohol stays in your system for a lot longer.

Woah, why did everyone dislike so much?

Week two?

I was able to upload 57k assets via the web browser without much trouble. I just did it in bulk operations or a year or two at a time to prevent the interface framerate from dropping.

I don’t remember this taking me more than a couple days mostly not touching it.

AAHHH I love them

And then to reliably differentiate them if they do some kind of revision upgrade. And for another user to identify whether the device they are thinking about buying is a particular one in the home assistant database; given how many sellers resell the exact same thing under different names.

:P
