Apparently it’s a semi common thing for jewelry store workers to do.

You’re not thinking about when Microsoft bribed their way into them not switching by opening an office in the area?

Literally says so in the article. Maybe read it?

For me it’s all the winter dormant insects in the tree that wake up once the tree is inside a warm home that makes me never want a real tree.

There’s people running old raspberry pis with USB hard drives.

It’ll run on just about anything.

Though, you’ll only be able to stream original quality, no on the fly quality changes for low speed connections and such.

The narwhal bacons at midnight.

This is 100% definitely attributable to Daniel Micay. Nobody else should have access to the official account on the chat platforms.

You emit an unmaskable and extremely noticeable odour whenever invisible.

They talked about streaming VR games from the SteamOS based steam machine to it.

So with that I’d assume we’re finally getting some much needed progress to SteamVR on linux.

Personally I don’t care which state actor it is, I don’t want any of them to have easy access to my data.

If they want it, they should work for it.

All your data from this device being stored on servers in China that are accessible to the Chinese government isn’t a relevant concern?

It’s not cloud free and requires online activation with the Tuya app. (I assume based on other Tuya WiFi devices)

It’s a rebranded Tuya doorbell. So there aren’t any subscriptions, though you will be giving them all your data.

Because resistive heating took too much energy and made the buses not have enough range, and heat pumps were deemed too expensive.

This all could’ve been avoided if they just included heating as part of the original bidding process, the heat pumps would’ve been cheaper than the diesel heaters if included in the original spec.

The busses they replaced were plug-in hybrid busses that mostly ran on battery power already, they were already super efficient.

They did indeed fuck up and not buy them with heat pumps. They were going to retrofit heatpumps but it turned out to be too expensive so they went with diesel heaters.

They literally did not include any sort of minimum requirements for heating in the bidding process. It was a huge fuck up that has been covered lots in the media here.
