Snips beibg acquired by Sonos is not the worst outcome, glad Sonos has a strategy to add their own smart assistant to their speakers rather than being beholden to large players.

We had an issue with PIA's Android VPN breaking our app, they never responded to our PGP'ed ticket and the email address embedded in their PGP keyblock bounces. I wonder what will happen to Freenode now: https://freenod

The type of messages that can be sent over WhatsApp via Twilio are so restricted and expensive that it was not worth integrating when we looked at this at my work. Even with Verizon's proposed A2P charge per SMS, it is half the cost to

There are tons of differing implementations like PeerTube, PixelFed (Instagram-esque), Lemmy (Federated Reddit/HN), Write.as (great for blogging on the fediverse and closed platforms at the same time), Pleroma, etc

Are general social networks actually useful though? In mature markets, you have a huge chunk of people that have logged off Facebook permanently. What matters is the people I want to interact with, and in Seattle they are on Mastodon. Not e

OVH & DigitalOcean have both adpoted IPv6 as a first class feature on their VMs, Google is the only holdout that doesn't offer any IPv6 support on VMs among the major providers.

Google still can't figure out how to get IPv6 working for containers on GCP, I swear that whole platform is a readheaded stepchild made to check a box.

It sounds like you've never used a federated platform. Discoverability and searchability is not the showstopper you think it is.

Blockchain doesn't offer significant advantages over a (much more simple) ActivityPub based event planner. We do not need a signed chain of hashes to track that a person is coming to an event, but rather a simple RSVP.

Combining Benadryl & Zyrtec along with a cough drop containing menthol usually dries out my post-nasal drip before bed. It might be worth taking generic Zyrtec daily if you find that reduces the problem. Allergy shots have also been sup

Lowes also gave everyone back all the money they paid for Iris hardware, the only thibg they did not refund were monthly service subscriptions. Best Buy just shut down their IoT offering, open sourced nothing and gave no refunds.

Google should have bought Wyze or Iris by Lowes, the Nest Protect offerings are very underwhelming (no motion detectors, the door sensors don't double as temperature sensors like most Z-Wave sensors).
