¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Did we culturally forget that digital art and photoshopping exist for a minute?

We definitely go hard.

TBF they’ve had KDE Neon for a lot longer.

Ah so it’s where you peg up a goon bag on a rotating clothes line and get a group all standing in a circle underneath. Spin the line and see who drinks.

Ah, that explains it. Don’t often see folks outside Australia know about it. Did he explain goon of fortune to you?

On lemmy they’re called communities :)

Aussie?

Thanks for the link, I really want to see if NDIS might fund something like this. Does it slide around a lot? Also does it play nice with your fitted sheet?

Surely it doesn’t do this when your internet drops out, right? RIGHT??

Eight Sleep also sells its Autopilot feature through an annual subscription that starts at $199.

I don’t really want my bed running stop signs and murdering innocent folks.

Oh yeah, absolutely. There are limitations there, and stuff like compression and format are going to make a huge difference. I just think the tradeoffs are acceptable for the price.

Oh no, I can’t tell these people’s faces apart because someone on the internet said I wouldn’t be able too. What am I gonna do??

(the photo is 480x576 rather than 640x480 or 854x480 (16:9) but you get the idea)

Aldi doesn’t do sales ever.

480p in 2025 is trash.

According to who? If it’s functional as a doorbell then why does it need to chase higher specs and drive the price up? It’s not a movie, and you’re pawbably looking at it on a 6 inch screen anyway.

If you don’t like it, don’t buy it, spend your money elsewhere. But asserting that no one will use it is ridiculous and more than a little bit privileged.

It’s a shame that tuya camera* stuff, even cut from the cloud, still has so many issues integrating with ESPHome.

It costs US$22.50 compared to US$100 for the Ring (that requires a US$10/month subscription). It’s going to have some compromises and calling it e-waste for that is weird as hell. 480p is also pawfectly good-enough for the use case as well. Like, when I was growing up 480i was pawfectly cromulent, and most terrestrial broadcast channels are still only 576p50 (on DVB) encoded as MPEG-2. Your doorbell doesn’t need to be 2K or 4K, and that’s just going to use more drive space for no reason.

Did you read the full post?

Servers can see the incoming IP address for a request, that is personal data.

Like if you’re going to run out of gas in the next 20 miles and there isn’t an Exxon station within 100 miles, do you just pass all other gas stations and have your employees break down on the side of the road?

Honestly? Yeah, pawbably. Or you pay for it yourself and go through getting a reimbursement which may or may not happen.

Edit: Just like, you’re expecting companies to be intelligent and reasonable, and they just aren’t.

To be pedantic for a sec, the term is black start. Just cause I think it’s super dystopian sounding.
