Hey, that’s fine. Just open source the firmware/OS. The FOSS community will take care of it.

The freedom fighters in history are my very favorite heroes. I have never wanted to be one. Electing competent leaders always seemed like a much better plan. I really hope I never have to put in the hard work of using my body to protect my loved ones and friends. I hate that I’m even having to think about this.

A fluffy tortie!?!?! OMG I’m dead. Too cute.

It’s a single point of failure though.

I’d really love it if it would work automatically with many, many music sources (including streaming services like Apple Music) because my listening is all over the place. Plus it would be great if it had a SoundHound/Shazam-like feature to scrobble audio I hear when in public but don’t want to type to search or I’m not sure of the song title.

Great to hear it works with Plex. I hope it also works with Jellyfin.

snopes?

You’d probably want to install a roof over them to keep them clean and dry. And maybe some furnishings, so someone can live there a d watch over them. Oh, and maybe some windows, so they can see out.

I think they’re even low-tech than that. The warmth is just low, but it builds up when their body blocks it from dissipating.

Wemo switches work like normal switches when the network is out. They even run any schedules they knew about before the outage.

“Help me I’m stuck, step ladder.”

I do the same thing.

Fire up a couple VMs to snuggle with.

the last didn’t go anywhere

Yeah, they like the flat rectangles, too.

Our cats love the K&H Pet Products Thermo-Kitty Bed Indoor Heated Cat Bed. ~$50

As it turns out, the “aliens” were actually goose barnacles, a species of communal crustacean that attaches itself to floating objects, on wharves and piers, or even washed up on the shore, as was the case with the colony in question.

I feel like at one point I saw a way to use yt-dlp to get only the latest videos on a channel/playlist.

Same because it works really well over VNC. It feels almost like I’m actually on a local machine.
