Is there any stated reasoning for the NTP review in the first place beyond “People like RFK think it’s scary”?

Not super likely, and I don’t think I’d expect updates from Tuya directly unfortunately. What the other person was saying about getting it supported through ZHA is likely your best bet.

If this is one of the new ThirdReality bulbs, they allegedly need an OTA update accordong to an amazon review or two. Mine is coming in tomorrow so I’ll report back.

This is not exactly what you’re talking about but it’s close and actually is available on the web: check out the camera feeds from ISS. Pretty incredible to just watch the world literally go by.

I like this option. I don’t think it’s a good option exactly, but I like it.

It looks like it got added in the protocol V1.3 and then further refined in 1.4: https://csa-iot.org/newsroom/matter-1-4-enables-more-capable-smart-homes/

A. Perhaps when people call out your bad logic you should reconsider your logic rather than going “They’re persecuting me!” Freedom to express your ideas is not freedom from having those ideas critiqued or debated, and in my experience a LOT of religious people equate the two.

B. Read the rules before posting, maybe? This community is for advertising communities you’ve already created.

C. If you do actually create said community and advertise here, be prepared to be downvoted to hell again.

THC and Minecraft

Too late for me. It’s been fine so far, but I’m also not really using anything new.

Honestly I’d go with gate or fence post then, something like that

That’s why I said a portion of one, I’m fairly sure that’s the top six inches or so that got broken off. What’s the bottom look like?

EDIT: A comment or above saying gate post might also very well be right. Whatever specifically, my guess stands on it being some kind of post of some sort.

This looks like a portion of a plastic-covered concrete filled bollard, something like this.

I haven’t, but I’ve baked enough bread to know that sounds awful

Whatever else he may have said, Marx’s version was much better. “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need” is a much better way to run society as a whole.

There was an implied /s there.

Have you tried factory resetting?

That is an impressive grade of bullshit.

How well has that particular excuse worked with law enforcement in the past?

The poem written on Lady Liberty’s base bears repeating, I think.

The New Colossus
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

I get a free one from Verizon with FiOS that’s actually pretty decent, especially considering it’s free. Triband, the webui is decent, and aside from an issue that required rebooting every few days that got fixed pretty quickly it’s been pretty stable.

Not now. Maybe it’ll be useful once the bubble bursts and a few actually decent uses for something that could actually run on a phone emerge from the rubble and actually work.

At the moment I’m not seeing a whole lot overall that actually works unless you’re an expert using it for science or something like that.
