Schlage’s Zwave/Zigbee stuff works really well with Home Assistant. Ours have been hooked up since day 1 and don’t have any issues that I know of

The subtitle of the article says it’s not available in the US -

PC Manager app is only available in some regions, but could come to the US eventually

WHAT
When did it die? That’s so sad

Here in Texas, my grandpa used to participate in these when I was a kid. He would set up a tent in the main camping area and chill out with everyone else partaking. When the event happened they would go act it out, but otherwise it was one big camping day/weekend at a park.

This is a really great thing. My town doesn’t do ewaste programs and we had some UPS batteries to get rid of a few months ago. We ended up giving them to one of our parents in the city to take to their program

Laptops that businesses used are pretty good value for the quality. My SO gets Latitude 5590s from eBay that are in near pristine condition and are workhorses for everything he does. They work great with Linux too.

The order of the comment headers is the other way - above the comment it goes with. If you scroll to the top, you can see it better there. The Microsoft person is Zied Aouina

Most formal cleaning companies will do a deep cleaning to form a clean baseline, or let you add on extras per session to address when you need. Usually it’s hourly based with a minimum time requirement. If you don’t need them to do something, it might work out to be cheaper if doing it would have put you over the minimum time.
If you find a self employed cleaning person, they are more likely to be more flexible and able to handle the odd tasks like tidying up or handling laundry. Maybe even help organize or do other routine tasks that you don’t have the bandwidth for.

I saw Windows subsystem and panicked thinking it was the Linux version. Did not know an Android variant existed, that’s a bummer

If there’s an option on the AP to not permit link local routing within a vlan/ssid, that will force all traffic up to the firewall. Then you can block intrazone traffic at the firewall level for that vlan.
I’ve seen this in Meraki hardware where it’s referred to as “client isolation”. Ubiquiti might be able to do this too.

This is what I use for clips that I need to upload to friends. The Windows Xbox DVR saves the last 3 mins of gameplay, but I only need 15-30s of it.

Allagans secretly powering Home Assistant

That’s good to know. I’ll give it a shot setting up another alias but still keeping the address functional

This has been happening with my original MS email account for years. It’s been in so many data breaches and pwns over the years that I basically have abandoned it. It’s constantly being probed by malicious actors from outside the US. I still keep it for when family reaches out, otherwise I’d close the account.
There’s no real way to block the attempts. Make sure your password is rock solid (randomize and store it in a password manager) and unique, put on 2FA, and ensure your recovery methods aren’t easily phishable/leakable.

In shorter terms to what the other comment said, your website won’t work in networks that use DNS served by your DC. The website is fine on the Internet, but less so at home or at an office/on a VPN if you’re an enterprise.
“I can’t go to example.com on the VPN!” was a semi common ticket at my last company 🙃

Not sure what temp and humidity levels a terrarium is expected to have, but Shelly makes a good device for monitoring both - https://www.shelly.com/en/products/shop/shelly-h-and-t-white.
Or one with a screen (still smart) - https://www.shelly.com/en-us/products/shop/shelly-h-and-t-gen3-1/
We use the latter in our bedroom which triggers the power outlet to a humidifier if it gets too dry when we’re sick.

Android Auto is a specific system that mirrors app contents from your phone. It’s basically an extended monitor for your phone with specific formatting to be car usage friendly. It doesn’t do anything about a car’s embedded systems

It’s the same kind of deprecation you get with apps requiring a newer Android version. If Google adds new features to Android Auto that Android Nougat (7.x) can’t handle, then your apps won’t have any better time either. Likewise, if Google updates Android Auto but an app stops supporting 7.x and earlier, then that app will certainly break down the road.

Are you using a phone from 2017 or earlier? If not, you have nothing to worry about. If so, I’m surprised it still works.
The article topic only affects phones with Android Nougat and earlier. If you’re on Oreo or later (8.0+), you’re fine. This has nothing to do with the car and everything to do with the phone doing the screen projection.

Adding on to a bit from your comment that I missed, it’s not affecting the car itself. The article should have used the word “phone” instead of “device”.
All Android Auto is a screen for your phone that also hooks into car buttons. Your phone does all the hard work with projecting data to the screen. If your phone is too old, Android Auto might not work because apps don’t work properly with the base framework by Google.
You can use a new phone on an older car that officially supports Auto/CarPlay. That’s never been a problem.
