What system?

There’s always a way to improve but the question is how hard is it.

Threaded will also includes its own premium service, available as a subscription and lifetime payment, called Threaded+ (or Plus for short). Plus only adds additional features to Threaded, you don’t need a subscription to like, post, bookmark, or use any existing Mastodon feature. Currently, all available Threaded+ features are free, until further notice.

We’re really copying Threads with this one

Hmm privacy and security may be the reason. A bad actor can create an instance and mine the data. Mastodon is big enough for it to be a realistic concern

Idk. That’d be weird

cough cough mass surveillance cough censorship cough cough. Though there are advantages too

I think mine is kinda obvious but in case it isn’t, it’s “GNU” in the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet. I got it because I like aviation and Linux… and also because I’m too autistic to get a more normal one

It’s way too early to tell

Wearable tech and VR do make some sense. NFT is not eco-friendly cuz based on blockchain. 3D? Idk it’s just for fun I guess. But at least it’s not consuming the power of a small country to run the servers

I personally hope that all of this AI stuff will become a flop and disappear soon. It’s unreliable, not eco-friendly and dangerous for privacy

I really like GNOME’s games. Flightgear is a good project too. But “real games” are usually very large projects that require several thousands of hours of labour so I think open-source is not the way to go for them, unless they choose a paid source code way with the price of a single license set to thousands or even millions of dollars (which is still not a very good way because it can be abused by the original developer)

What if there’s a gas explosion or another case that causes loss of connection between the system and the doors? Is it possible to open them manually in such cases?

I would genuinely like to learn about how you deal with stuff like malfunctions and backup door unlock methods. But now I don’t really want to discuss much because of health issues. Hopefully you all won’t consider me a bad person who likes to argue

Hmm facial recognition? A little bit unreliable of a technology I’d say. But other than that, it seems really convenient. I just prefer doing everything manually. Probably I need to delete that question. I just wanted to know people’s reasons to use smart home because I didn’t believe many of them find it useful

Well that’s an expected answer. Many people seem to like such stuff and find it convenient. I just don’t. Probably I’m too old to understand it lol. Though I have nothing against smart home devices that are not connected to the cloud. Just don’t fully rely on them for core stuff such as doors, fire alarms and oxygen/medication (in case you need that). You do want to be able to open the doors with a physical key in case of a power outage or a simple system malfunction

That’s a very good point but could you also tell me why do you need a smart home? I don’t understand the point of it

This is why you don’t use any smart home devices, kids

OFF WITH HIS HEAD

That’s why you should always use E2EE if you want something to stay private

Installed a flatpak app (can’t remember which one but it wasn’t obscure or shady) and smh it broke the file system on one of my main machines :) (at least I think that’s what happened because the machine started lagging, any app refused to launch and after a reboot I got an fsck error or something like that)
