So you’re angry that a Google service doesn’t have longevity on an Apple product?

Your argument makes no sense. Who even cares if these ancient paperweights work? That’s not “planned obsolescence”, that’s just hardware and software getting old.

Well there was no such thing as the “iPhone 3”. There was the iPhone 3G or the iPhone 3GS, but no “iPhone 3”.

And this doesn’t prove anything lol an iPhone 3G can still connect to a 3G network and make calls and browse the internet.

“Planned obsolescence”? Like where the iPhone 7 and on have received 6 to 7 years of software updates?

For their price, I should hope so.

I looked for this integrity check file and ran the power shell script and I don’t see it listed anywhere on my system’s roaming folder nor in the list of applications with cpu usage.

Has anyone seen anything on the DODI release or is it clean?

Sometimes on my instance I have to search for it twice and it shows up about 5 seconds after I search the second time.

Cool story, bro. You hate boats and the people that enjoy them. We get it.

We’ve known about the X everything app for months now. Elon hasn’t been hiding the fact that he wants to compete with all major forms of social media. Twitter’s acquisition was only the first step. Soon it will be YouTube and Twitch competition, then Instagram, etc.

Sir, we’re talking about boats.

“Hey! This guy believes people should be allowed to own nice things that they enjoy! Get him!”

I disagree, but I also don’t have a problem with people or companies being wealthy enough to make or own them, either.

Electric boats seem like a great idea, especially with all the pollution the really large cruise ships put out. I’m happy to finally see this become mainstream. On the water there’s nothing to really get in the way of solar panels, either, so it makes sense to have them for charging.

I’m using Memmy for iOS. Guess I’ll have to reach out to the developers.

Hmmm I haven’t tried linking anything yet. Might as well here:

!homeassistant@lemmy.world

Edit: it didn’t do anything…

Very good point. HomeAssistant offers a paid service called Nabu Casa that provides you a secure way to access your entire HomeAssistant instance, including cameras, sensors, you can set up mobile push notifications, and more.

HomeAssistant and OpenHAB are good places to start. I don’t know too much about OpenHAB, but for HomeAssistant you can do almost everything locally.

ESPHome is a good example of a project that they fund where you can use ESP8266/ESP32 devices to create several sensors and other devices for local IoT. They also have a number of ways to bypass cloud requirements for Tuya based devices, Phillips Hue, etc.

Plus this year is “Year of the Voice Assistant” and they’re working on enhancing a locally accessible and hosted voice assistant that doesn’t require cloud access.

Edit: If you’re a DIY kind of person like I am, HomeAssistant offers compatibility with a number of other projects like presence detection via ESPresence, custom firmware for ESP32Cam via Tasmota, WLED for controlling RGB lightstrips and matrices, lots of 3D printing opportunities too. I found it a lot of fun to go through my home and find ways to make things work. Blinds, accent lighting, automations based on time and other factors, etc.

Plus the hardware requirements for HomeAssistant aren’t that high. You can run it on an RPi4b with 2/4/8GB RAM (I would suggest at least 4), a VM that you can expand later and so forth.

Great to hear. The Intel NUC series was great for some power efficient devices for homelabs and self-hosting. Great upgrade options, too.

Is there a reason they’re only offering AMD CPUs and GPUs? Why don’t they offer Intel and Nvidia as well?

Yes the Usenet is still a thing. Sign up for server access, sign up to an indexer, set up Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr/Mylar/etc and Sabnzbd, and away you go!
