If you pick a ZigBee device and don’t try to power a refrigerator or a washing machine with it, it probably doesn’t matter much. Just get some reliable brand, Sonoff, IKEA, something, for wall powered stuff. Battery sensors are fine OEM from AliExpress. I’d advice against anything WiFi that requires a cloud connection, as most of them do, but that is my personal preference.
There were the opportunists profiteering arseholes that hoarded necessities in hopes to sell them marked up to the skies. I hope their butts rot and their toilet paper is itchy and annoying.
You are free to do whatever you want that makes you happy in private bud. Anything. Almost.
Hands full, disabled, multiple people, yes. Holding the phone like an extended duck face, no.
If only there was a way to speak privately on a phone.
Today I was annoyed by a man in his 30-40s that was talking on his phone like he was a reality soap star with speaker on full blast in a doctor’s waiting room.
Then I remembered the most absurd moment on the tram some time ago when a two teen girls were talking to a third and the one holding the phone told her friend to go sit somewhere else because they wanted to talk in private. The second girl moves and the first one proceeds to have their private talk on speaker. In a tram full of people and her friend sitting a few seats away.
Yeah but not one “master” language. All knowledge it can relate across languages is available in all languages. LLM (and computers) don’t care about the data, they just process it. Humans would translate it and compile it in ordered encyclopedia. For LLM it is all just an insane number of references and cross references all over that is available from anywhere that the link has been established. The input/output of desired language and formulation and whatever is a different part of it.
As far as I understand it.
I hear a whisper in the wind about file size being a distinct though not foolproof hint of quality.
I know that the current generation of LLM have a language agnostic knowledge base, which is damn awesome, but I don’t know how the language layer works.
Bringing back the absurdum to Reduction Ad Absurdum.
While applying this technique, the caller may well hang up, so the quandary is solved regardless.
Uh, so it begins with blocking piracy. What’s next? Which public DNS can still be trusted to not be kept on a leash?
It all comes down to plausibility. A repeat offender that clearly doesn’t give a flying fuck or somebody that pays for trash collection services and has no reason to dump their garbage but they also have an asshole neighbour with a personal vendetta. Or it is building materials and that address just had work done Or they paid a contractor for work and cleaning up and the contractor dumped it on the forest. I’m sure the authorities won’t bother with it if it happens once but when it’s the second or third time with the same suspect, well then you actually have a case.
A lot of things have changed. It is not exclusive to speech. And speech is not only one thing.
Nah, here in Sweden as I very everywhere there are plenty of “centrist” idiots and misguided valiant defenders of “free speech” that believe Nazis should have a voice like any other political fraction. Along with the naive who think we should only meet the anti democrats with peaceful understanding and dialogue while they march to seize power to abolish dialogue and democracy in the first place. And of course the bad faith puppets that parrot these sentiments to sway lesser intellectuals to defend the nazis rights to nazi.
As for your second paragraph, speech is not a singular thing. Words are not a singular thing. There are plenty of things that are restricted from frivolous communication and nobody thinks twice about it. Yet when it comes to hate speech, it’s suddenly difficult.
Carefully check for labels with name and address and then contact the authorities.
if cannibalism/societal colapse/megetables are going on, people are going to notice.
Fake news and xitter would like to have a word.
This is also the rationale to people defending Nazis because “it’s just their opinions”.
No, it is not “just opinions” when you want to terrorise and murder other people simply for having been born. It is not “just opinions” that you want to abolish democracy for a totalitarian police state. It is not “just opinions” that you manifest that you are working towards this society. It is not “just opinions” that you express this in public in order to make other people live in fear for your “opinions” to become reality.
It is violence. And violent aggression is justified to be met with violent defence.
Punch a nazi today, kids. Every day is punch a nazi day.

For anybody else curious;
Voyager 1 uses hydrazine (N₂H₄) as fuel for its small attitude control thrusters. Hydrazine is a hypergolic monopropellant, meaning it doesn’t require an external oxidizer—it decomposes exothermically upon contact with a catalyst, producing gas to generate thrust.
The thrusters are not used for propulsion, but rather to rotate and stabilize the spacecraft so that its antenna remains pointed toward Earth and its instruments can be properly oriented. Fuel consumption is extremely low—only a few grams per year—and Voyager 1 still has some hydrazine left, although it’s running low. Once the hydrazine is depleted, the spacecraft will no longer be able to control its orientation, which means communication with Earth will cease.
The Voyager spacecraft have no engines for linear acceleration; instead, they follow the trajectory and speed gained from gravity assists during planetary flybys in the solar system.
