I am having the same issue. I’m in with Mlem, but I can not log in on the site. I even tried it with content blockers off in case there was a captcha or something being blocked.

Thanks for summarizing this up for us. It will be interesting to see where this goes.

I think Bitcoin is more of a gamble than it is an investment. You can do well with it, sure, but it can be very volatile.

Bitcoin does not, for that reason, feel like an appropriate investment vehicle for a state government.

lol. He is just stirring the pot. It’s what he does. I recommend ignoring him and just using something else. It is either going to sink or not.

Ex-twitter seems to me to be going in a disjointed “by the seat of the pants” direction. It’s like a kid playing with his new toy. “My toy, I make the rules and I don’t care what you think.”

The thing is, it technically is his toy. It is not a global square. It is a private company. I take issue with what has been going on, but my opinions are irrelevant to the situation.

I’m on the bandwagon of no “smart home” devices that connect to the cloud. I build a lot my own little controllers with the ESP8266/ESP32 using MQTT to communicate with OpenHAB.

OpenHAB has served me well, but I started using it so long ago that I have not tried out some of the newer options like HomeAssistant.

Here is one of the devices I developed a long tome ago. It used an old chimera of a board, the Arduino Yùn. https://www.instructables.com/Introducing-Climaduino-The-Arduino-Based-Thermosta/

The code referenced in the Instructable is much older code. I don’t think I have my current and much simpler code on Github for the ESP8266. If there is any interest, I can push it.

We could start by having both on new signs. Over many years the majority of signs would eventually have both. Then, maybe 15 years from now, we could drop the imperial measurements from all new signs. I think that would help with cost.

(Adjust timeframe based on the average useful life of a sign plus an extra margin.)

Thanks. I’ll let him know. I think he has either a Canon or Lexmark.

That is not exactly what they are saying. You could create a private fork of a public repo and the code in your private fork is publicly accessible.

My Mom says it does the same to her. Then she eats Dorito chips or uses a seasoning in it that has MSG and nothing happens. When I point that out she is still convinced that it gives her migraines and maybe those things just don’t have enough of it.

Amazon has been progressively getting worse and worse. I was not a member of Prime for the video. It was a nice perk.

The combination of Amazon making it hard to search for things to buy, the huge amount of low quality crap for sale with confusing descriptions, and this most recent change of putting in place ads if I do not pay an additional fee has led me to cancel my subscription.

They have taken the enshittification too far. Good bye Amazon. Hello Home Depot, Target, et al.
