The USB-C and Thunderbolt docks are annoying! It basically boils down to the fact that they come in two variants, with and without Displaylink. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, depending on your port configuration, number of mo

Inductive charging, like the often-mentioned-here Sonicare toothbrushes have.

It was you who posted links to the study. I only pointed out that the study concludes that: > The kids who spent more time indoors (reading or on their devices) were more likely to get myopia or severe myopia." You can look up wha

He was smart, but not street smart. Also, I do belive the story was that he had the appearance of a homeless man and thus received sub-standard care. When someone finally recognized him, it was already too late.

Yeah, it's like Diamond age, except it also destroys your kid's vision. But then again, that's a potential upsell just waiting to happen - do you want eyeglasses with that? Your kid is gonna need them.

That's a good question. Poorly phrased though. ;)

Yes, and a lot of others. A bit too expensive for a home appliance though, isn't it?

There is an entire ecosystem of kid's watches which do exactly that. Pretty much just a miniature cellphone with restricted functions that goes on the wrist like some sort of a tracking collar.

Nope, just fat. ;)

I am aware of a recent youtube video where some guy measured the CO2 ppm scores with recirculation on. The results are (obviously) quite terrible after a while. But I don't think car manufacturers care about that. I think the switch to

I just tried, using https://tris.sherliker.net/assets/2026-07-04-cropped-script.... as a source and the answer is a resounding no.

TCP vs UDP. ;) Both have their uses.

> You put the re-circulation fan on, perhaps because you don't like smelling exhaust fumes? Car quietly turns it off again in the not to distant future. I believe most newer cars do this and there are good reasons for it.

It's one of the travel assist features where the cars try to stick to the changing speed limits, slow down for corners etc... .

Is that really a concern? Pretty much any robovac nowadays has a camera and a wireless connection to the cloud and nobody seems to care.

The single hose units work. They have a lot of downsides though. They are heavy, loud and require a supply of fresh air. That means that your either do not block the window completely and draw hot air in, thus reducing the available cooling

Thanks, appreciate the response. Sounds like the HA Green should be more than enough for my needs - that is testing if the grass is really greener on the other side of the fence of my Amazon-walled garden.

Not hitting anyone is a skill some people seem to lack. Sometimes the rules say one thing, but you have to do another, mostly give way even if you're not supposed to yield.

I guess you could use something like Fedora Silverblue if you feel like doing some initial explaining.

It's actually only a problem if it's the other way around, isn't it? If kids run into a car, they will most probably just bounce and continue, perhaps inflicting some minor damage. But if a car mows down a kid, that could wel

Appreciated. I guess I was so impressed by the CT scans so I let my guard down and you are right, the article could be written a lot better.

Why were you looking for a replacement/upgrade? Is your HA Green failing, or is it just too slow? Asking as someone who is considering purchasing one (just to run HA on it, obviously).

Amazon devices get a lot of flak for being too invasive, but at least they work.
