It’s easier for me to control my Sonos devices through Home Assistant and dashboards I’ve created, rather than using the Sonos app itself. It’s like they hired some McKinsey consultants to make the app as useless as it can be.

And don’t forget, these active users and mods need to provide all their identity information. Makes sense on the stock purchasing part, but having real identities tied to profiles… just what their AI models need.

Then you are just a fool or a shill. There is no metric in which Trump would be a better president than Biden.

And yet, this all powerful government couldn’t even fake finding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq to “validate” their invasion reasons.

Against the Storm. Really great roguelight (meta progression) city builder-esque. Has some Tropico vibes, but the replayability and mechanics are really good.

I just had a mental image of some overweight dude with tons of rock climbing stickers on their van. (Not implying anything OP, but just a funny picture I imagined)

Exactly. China is extremely unfriendly to immigrants.

Look at you, simping for Iran.

And that’s unfortunate. This planet is already too crowded. Why spend resources on scum like this? Lock them away forever.

Moody’s Analytics is a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation. The Moody’s Investor Services is all part of the overall Moody’s.

$10 a ballot sounds steep. I wonder if they offered a Costco sized box for cheaper? Maybe people should look for ballots off a knock-off site.

I need that for my Roku. I may just write an automation in Home Assistant that will switch to whatever app I programmed if I press the Paramount+ button. Unfortunately that means I need to install that app on the Roku itself.

Yeah, but that depends on the use cases. I have a home video and picture library on my NAS. I’d much rather have more storage on an HDD rather than SSD. For the same price, and with RAID 5, I get to store more. I don’t need the SSD speeds to load old pictures and videos.

Now for a boot OS drive, where ky games are, pr my CM images? SSD all the way.

I use a piHole to block all my IoT devices from sending telemetry data. Roku devices especially, but it’s amazing how many IoT devices try to ping out.

Yeah, Altman is a complete ass and very full of himself. Not at all surprising.

Some security camera systems have this built in. They show snapshots of various times where you choose the total period, say 24 hours. Then you glance through the snapshots that are all displayed at once on the screen and click on the last one where your bike was still there. That will then “zoom in” the timeline and show another set of snapshots, though this time within a smaller total time window. Keep clicking on the last panel with the bike, and it will soon show you the clip of the bike being stolen.

Really helpful to find out when something changed.

Rosanne Barr would have absolutely ruined the show and it would never have been as popular.

Perhaps, but withholding footage is not a good look. Good thing the police never withholds foota… oh

Not sure how this is emptily shilling though. Am I paying for a service? Yes. Will I stop paying for a service if they start “refusing features?” Also yes.

Like I said in another comment, I was happy with Netflix back in the day, but now, nope. I have self hosted alternatives.

If a service is not worth it for me, I stop paying. Different people have that line at different levels, and for me, today’s Spotify Premium is worth it. In the future it may not be.

No need to be so hostile.

To each their own. For me, I really like the Discover Weekly/Daily features to discover new music and I can’t see how I would ever “already have MP3s of all the good music” since that’s an ever changing set. Heck, I still have a ton of old mp3s I used to rip and/or download, but I haven’t listened to them in a while.

I would gladly pay for a similar AYCE movie subscription, but I refuse to sign up for a ton of different services and play the “which service is that movie on again?” game. Instead it’s a very different approach for me.
