Best iOS app for Mastodon? Anyone? Bueller?
Balance of ease of use, cleverness, cost, etc.
TIA

I just created a blueprint script for that allows me to ask the voice assistant when the best time to turn on my appliances is

There aren't enough corned beef recipes. It's basically just corned beef and cabbage, corned beef hash, reubens or make it into pastrami

    @decryption Today's was even more excellent than usual. The Chromakey vid and the volumetric display vid were fucking unreal.

    @decryption was just moaning about this then thought about the 10 degree delta. That sounds significant

    @decryption you just reminded me of Hyper magazine, which I would religiously buy.

    I've written a pretty niche blog post on how I turn Proxmox Backup Server on and off to only use excess solar generation using Home Assistant: https://myles.eftos.id.au/blog/2024/02/08/proxmox-backups-when-the-sun-is-shining/

    @decryption even if it did she wouldn’t be able to hear it through her cans. Headphone level pot is also at zero.

    This post brought to you by every new JavaScript flavor-of-the-month framework introduced after JQuery.

    @carnage4life worse: none of those are actually front end, they are all backend on the wrong side of the wire.

    Seeing a lot of Reddit posts like this. Maybe, just maybe, this is actually a growing sentiment in Australia and there's a minuscule chance something will be done about it?

    @decryption @wallamba I was literally bitching about this yesterday. There is zero reason for cars that big. Especially in suburbia.

    Was explaining the concept of a standup to my three-year-old. She said they do the same thing at daycare - except they sing a song. That sounds much nicer.

    Missing product: a very small battery backup UPS that can deliver a full 10A to (say) a NAS for just the second or three it takes the house to switch to battery during a grid outage. You can get high-current/high-capacity and low-current/low-capacity, but not high-current/low-capacity.

    madpilot,
    @madpilot@aus.social avatar

    @chendo @sentience depends on the outage type. If it’s due to slow falling frequency (ie overloaded grid), it’ll be more or less instant. Sudden drop there would be a slight delay

    F*ck there are some selfish people about. On a train to Frankston and there's a person in front of us on a loud speaker call with the phone held a couple of centimetres from her ear. Use it properly or use headphones, for Christ's sake.

    @decryption as someone who worked at Dick Smith through high school and uni, today’s Sizzle image of the day hit me right in the feels.

    The beginners electronics books he produced got me hooked on the hobby I still do thirty-years later.

    @decryption I was literally looking them up for my kids a few days ago! And with cheap PCBs out of china I reckon it wouldn’t be difficult to resurrect some of those kits.

    My son is really struggling with the concept that he can’t just watch the Matilda’s game now, as it hasn’t started. Streaming services have a lot to answer for.

    You know what grinds my gears? Websites that are clearly in acquisition mode that make the primary CTA "Sign up" and bury the “Login" button somewhere.

    I already pay you money, motherfucker - show me some fucking respect.
