For over a decade Philips Hue offered lights that work without sharing your data to the cloud. This is changing soon and we need your help to make some noise to convince them to revert this decision.

@homeassistant So glad we've already got great local-only migration options like Zigbee2MQTT (which I use) and ZHA- unfortunately seems inevitable that companies are going to continue to be pushed twords collecting more data from smart home devices.

Have you tried unplugging and plugging your senator back in? https://bird.makeup/users/kenklippenstein/statuses/1684267142839955456

@Andres4NY or, hear me out... "accidentally" forgetting to plug him back in again 😬

Amazon has 5,000+ Rivian EV delivery vans on the road

Amazon will also send Rivian vans to Germany.

@arstechnica Really hope they fix the brake light issue (https://www.dailydot.com/news/mechanic-calls-out-amazon-van-fault/) before they roll more of them out.

I fully assume they'll need to as part of changing over to the European tail light configuration anyways, but still, hopefully they can learn from that and improve the US models too.

Just for fun, I called Elon a buffoon on Twitter, refreshed the page and I was immediately rate limited. I then closed the tab and deleted all my cookies. That site is a dumpster fire. I keep the username so know one else takes it.

@machias I had this mindset for a while, but after some of the Anti-Trans nonsense he spouted, I realized that I didn’t care to hold my username, since I definitely wouldn’t go back.

One gets the feeling that all these limits Musk is suddenly throwing on have a lot less to do with data scraping per se and much more to do with trying to run the entire operation on a dozen Raspberry Pis to save money.

@lauren Just saw this post theorizing that since it's day one of Q3, that Google Cloud Platform may have cut them off: https://mstdn.social/@MDINOKC/110640278224283609

I wonder if Biden will now finally consider supreme court reform now that they killed one of his biggest pieces of landmark legislation.

Now that he doesn't have the seats in congress to ... you know do it.

@trashheap Probably not even. He'll just talk about how much he disagrees with the decision

🆕 blog! “LinkedIn supports Schema‎.org metadata”

I'm a big fan of machine-readable metadata. It's useful for programs which need to extract information from messy and complicated websites. It's always surprising where it turns up. For example, take this post of mine on LinkedIn. If you view the source, you'll see this scrap of linked data: <script type="applicati…

@Edent Love to see support for this- I hadn't messed with Schema.org metadata much until recently, but when building the @kuow_bot (since they don't support RSS, grr), it was super handy since they publish pretty extensive metadata that way

Thanks to everyone who reached out, fediDB.org and fediverse.info will remain online going forward.

I'm not going anywhere either, though I think I need a break from the fediverse for a few days.

@dansup Thank you for all you do and bring to the Fediverse :fediverse: ❤️

    @JSkier I have a couple Peanut plugs in my Zigbee setup too, curious what you replaced them with?

    I don't like Biden. I was praying he wouldn't fucking run again.

    But I don't get the hand-wringing about his mental competency, while Donald Trump is the presumptive nominee of the fascism party.

    @liam@gruezi.net avatar

    @trashheap DeSantis is terrifying too. I don't think he's likely to get the R nomination, but still, I’ll support Biden over either of them every time.

    What's your favourite email app for ?

    Looking for personal recommendations. I know how to search F-Droid, but it doesn't have reviews.

    @Edent K9-Mail is the best one I've found so far- it's now part of the Thunderbird family, and appears to be getting a bit of a facelift in recent updates, making the UI more friendly.

    Very impressed by the way that the biden administration has sent me a fund raising email every day since he announced he was running for re-election. Especially since this email address didn't exist when he ran the first time. :ms_grimace:
