Thank you for this. I will make the extra effort to steer new accounts here that get posts removed from where I moderate.

This is a much better idea than not removing posts.

Mods have enough to deal with. If getting a single post removed turns someone away from the platform because they couldn’t be arsed to read the rules or search again for the right community, that’s probably a net benefit for the entire Lemmy community.

That post is just setting off all kinds of alarm bells.

What are the odds that something could impersonate them in a way that gets their account banned? And if that really did happen, why on earth would they not be able to talk about it?

Shady AF.

Off topic is off topic. Removing a post for violating rules isn’t mean, it’s maintaining the integrity of the communities people come here for.

Same here. I was using Readarr and now Chaptarr on default setting and never had an issue.

Ask if they can do it by ASN? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_(Internet)

Glad to hear, I almost chimed in and suggested you just setup audiobookshelf but thought you probably didn’t want to do another server.

It really is the best tool for the job.

Any courts my ass.

FCC can’t remove this limit. It’s written in a law passed by Congress, it not a regulation made by The FCC.

Wrong community

What makes you think a remote uses 2.4ghz? And why would a thread enabled radio help with that?

Most remotes are either IR or 433mhz. Both have multiple options for controlling from Home Assistant.

Can you post a listing for the device you’re trying to control?

I would spend more, because im not building a server out of a mini pc. I would also optionally buy used or refurbished parts to save money given the state of things.

And as others have pointed out there’s serious concerns about the long term support of its non-standard CPU.

Even you have pointed out that it’s an incredible price for what you get. Why is that? Is it really?

If I’m going to spend that much on a server it won’t be a mini pc.

No, it wouldn’t work about as well for several reason. The biggest reason is you’re halving the surface area and reducing the airflow.

TL; DR all the oldest members who’ve already not really been contributing because they’ve moved on in their lives have officially handed the reins to the people actually doing the work.

No, but the founder naively praised Trump for an executive branch nomination he thought would play out in his favor. I don’t think it was a month later when Trump made it obvious he was just going to sell his entire administration to the big powerful tech bros. The Proton founder should have known better and just looked like an idiot, or worse a supporter, for praising Trump.

I also use Bichon and its great.

I actually, I looked back and it wasn’t even me they were snarky with. I had complained earlier in the thread, but it was another user complaining that the documentation on the change was super unclear and incomplete. At one point they suggested we dig into the developer comments on the change process in github. For regular users and not devs?

They got snarky about the documentation complaint and more or less said the person complaining that it was unclear should fix the documentation themselves. Because we need people who don’t understand the changes writing those? I replied that snark was inappropriate for a company with several paid full time devs that said they want to be a real smarthome brand in a recent announcement. And that’s when they gave me the volunteer spiel and that the change was made by a volunteer. Who’s running the company and cashing the paychecks? It’s just such an unprofessional fallback. If the people cashing the paychecks aren’t overseeing changes that break widely used functions I’m not sure it will ever break into the regular market.

It’s still hard for me to reccomend it to anyone who’s not a real dig in and get dirty kind of techy.

I will say it’s now been a couple years since that incident and I still find documentation after changes lacking from time to time, despite the paid team having grown in that time.

I 1000% get the fully volunteer projects being defensive. They catch a lot of shit for no pay.

But once I asked why they reworked and removed functionality that was easier to use and understand than what they replaced it with and they took me to task about how the person who did it was a volunteer contributor. OKAY, I get that there’s still lots of volunteer code submissions but shouldn’t the full time employees being overseeing it to make sure changes are improvements in all aspects?

I love the software and I have used it almost since the beginning, but if the community is paying for development and it’s the actual livelyhood of the employees, I don’t want to hear that I should be happy with what I get because it’s “free.”
