I JUST put together that the moto partnership means “buying a phone loaded with gOS” not “moto is working with gOS to ensure it runs smoothly on their hardware”. I was excited before but that is awesome

Had the “dadjokebot” jump in a tread about not having children in a subreddit for folks with a genetic disorder. The novelty of those bots wore out in 2013.

In theory sure :-p

Just being a dick about it. My local club has many long long discussions about which we should be putting nodes up for.

*meshtastic

Get into Lora (meshtastic/core). When I settle into bed I check to see if my solar powered nodes made any friends or if the heltec I keep in the car pinged anything cool.

I did a meetup a few weeks ago and its a cool smattering of younger folks and HAM folks who go wayyyyy back.

People talk about it being useful in an emergency, and sure, but mostly it’s just cool.

oh duh, that’s fantastic! Thanks!

I didnt know it got to that level of specificity! I’ve been using HA for going on a year now, but the app only recently. It has WAY more features than I thought.

I like that idea, that works on everything but my car, which I may be able to do some GPS fencing to get around.

excellent, do you know if tasker pics up specific wireless chargeres? I love what you’re saying about HA, but one of the use cases I’m interested in is turning off my VPN when I set my phone in my cars wireless charger (one of the hardest spots for me to to de-google at the moment).

Do you have tasker on grapheneOS?

LongFast for shitposts babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Well that and because on my 100th rewatch or whatever, I noticed that the very first thing Jake does when asking about the car is light a cigarette, and promptly throw the cigarette lighter out of the window.

My absolute favorite line of this film is shortly after this: “Fix the cigarette lighter”.

This is hilarious to me because other than a Samsung once (which made me go back) I had only moto… Until when I finally upgraded I wanted grapheneOS so pixel it was. Very happy about this.

Looks like they screened it and then were able to reproduce the relevant antibodies in vitro.

Thanks for your quick description! Did some reading and I can see why people are excited now. Right now I’m renting and doing a smaller area that my one router/zigbee radio covers pretty well, but I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on Matter over Thread. Based on what I read looks like a great protocol system as I get into widespread coverage. It’s exciting Matter is becoming a standard for all manufacturers and is compatible with local only stuff!

Yeah i like zigbee a lot! Although I havent really needed the meshnetwork aspect or had issues with wifi (ie: esphome). I’ve been reading about Matter, what’s the Tl;Dr on why it’s better than zigbee or just MQTT?

I actually have a few zigbee devices! It was strictly just the price on these. $2 for both a bulb and a LED strip with the wireless controllers already on both made them a good part to have around. No way I would have bought them normally.

“re-adding to an account” as in an official tuya account? That makes sense. Awesome to hear about re-installing the app with no problems, thanks!

Yeah, esphome is by far the better way to go, but at $2 a bulb (plus a short RGB addressable wifi LED strip), I’ll take some headache until they break…

Sure! I clicked around a lot, but I think I went with this one: as a guide.

I’d still avoid Tuya as much as possible, the whole thing depends on their app and dev portal, so you’re held to their whim. Also if you are doing smart bulbs, definitely let me know. Mapping the data points for them to function isnt terrible, but it’s a bit un-intuitive.
