Tut tut, Emperor!
Won't someone please think of the unopened pork markets?!
They've got the big scissors ready and everything!
I was wondering "when are the conservative supporting media going to start flipping so they're on the winning team?".
Looks like "the day before" is the answer!
To give to the birds, right?
Right?
Of course :)
CVE-2024-6387. To be honest, we have other mitigations that would have made a breach unlikely. But better safe than sorry!
Someone else already raised the mains wired safety/budget issue, but I may have a side suggestion for you: Bulbs as repeaters.
I've added hue bulbs directly to my zigbee network, where they also act as repeaters.
The problem then was people switching off at the switch. This has been resolved by adding a little zigbee button by the switch (as people can achieve the function without the mains switch).
Which gives the bonus of being able to do different taps.
(So for example, I have one click as toggle on/off, two clicks is daytime+bright, press+hold is evening+dim)
This is the reason I haven't gone down the smart light switches path yet.
Anything that I'd trust enough on 240v is out of budget!
Now that I think about it, activitypub must be a nice little wiggle-around for the great firewall. As unless they whitelist (I honestly don't know), all you need is a federated instance that isn't blocked.
HEVC is almost entirely down the the licensing. This section of the wikipedia page details it pretty well.
The tl;dr is that the LA group wanted to hike the fees significantly, and that combined with a fear of locking in led to the mozilla group not to support HEVC.
And it's annoying at times. Some of my security cameras are HEVC only at full resolution, which means I cannot view them in Firefox.
I can't see how anyone involved with allowing this isn't complicit.
What possible reason did the police of a foreign nation need to be physically there for, other than physically removing someone?
The traditional "british teeth" was the UK's dental industry focussing on healthy rather than pretty.
Nowadays, it's caused by underfunded patient slots at dentists.
You can find a private dentist pretty easily, but it's quite hard to get taken on as an NHS patient (which means when you need treatment for something, you're not in the capped NHS bands). Which is especially bad if you're eligible for completely free treatment, as you're blocked by available dentists.
The dentists are generally given funding (or access to funding) for a set amount of NHS patients to make up the difference between NHS capped costs and their true costs. And unfortunately, there often aren't enough slots.
I was lucky with my current dentist that they happened to have slots when I signed up. And a few years later, they let me know when slots were opening so I could add the rest of the household.
It's easy to dodge the politics at work on election day.
