YouTube ads come from the same server as the content so you can’t isolate them with pihole

One of the tricks I read is to put the echo in kids mode and it won’t throw ads at your face but you’ll lose some functions.

Mostly how terrible Amazon is when it comes to pumping ads at you. Alexa has the terrible habit of finishing some answers with “…by the way, did you know you can order straight from Amazon by saying buy more tape, try it now” or some incredibly annoying things like that. HomePod doesn’t do that. It also works with my phone seamlessly since I have an iPhone, transferring music from phone to the HomePod with just a tap is fun. The HomeKit part is more restrictive but I have a Pi Zero v1 with HomeBridge installed and all my smart WiFi devices are now HomeKit compatible.

This is a great time to have a 3D printer…

I left Alexa behind for HomePod and I’m happy no more By the way… and home integration really makes everything work together. But an open source voice assistant would be really nice.

Use VIM instead of V$code

The myQ app sucks so much, it doesn’t even have Siri integration or widgets. Plus it’s riddled with ads for their $100 camera.ARE YOU KIDDING ME‽ I’m 1 starting this actively (meaning at every update I renew my review)

I have an intelligent 2.0 door, but I noticed that the mechanical switch on the wall controller is a simple contact switch on the PCB. The 12v “smart” wire cames out of the PCB to the motor. So I.a solder two wired out of that switch and it should work.

Here is the pic of the wall switch PCB.

Yep. Fuck MyQ. I ordered a $15 smart garage adapter and will solder the contacts at the wall button.

The way I see it is you’re the Simon says machine and the computer is the player. It is expecting the sudo prompt. Asking me is more like do you want XXX Y/n:

Are we gonna talk about the mastodon in the room?

Maybe Lemmy should try some sort of crypto infused medal for posts then shut down the thing after a few mods pulled all their money out of the system.
