Yeah sometimes simple is best. Certainly a lot of folks have suggested this. I tend to wear different jackets as the seasons vary wildly here, so not quite as easy an option for me.

Oh my regular door responds to remotes, the meross is just there to add internet capability. I'm one of those who keeps worrying they haven't closed the garage door and is already so far away it's a bit awkward to turn around.

I also don't want a remote attached to my bike that's easily recognisable as one, in case the bike is ever stolen. This is why my interest was in modules like the FlashToPass, as it's not easily recognisable as being a garage remote.

Yeah I really should set up Home Assistant, especially as I have some other devices that would greatly benefit from it.

This will do me for now... until I want to really screw with more of my "smart" devices.

They did something similar with some transformers here in Australia, and unfortunately there were some possibly associated traffic incidents where people might have not been going the right speed and got rear-ended. One man died, even.

Please avoid the route, even when it is pulled over to "rest", as your fellow motorists may not be able to resist rubbernecking.

I use Shokz also.

The pink carbo one isn't bad. Definitely has other flavours in there, not just spicy. That said, I also don't add the entire sachet of hot sauce...

The bit about not being able to go outside is because people were using it as a pretext to explain why they weren't at home... when really they were off socialising and increasing possible infection points.

It's why they closed children's playgrounds here in Australia, parents were using their children playing to gather around, then held empty coffee cups to explain why their masks were off. I've never seen so many people desperately swigging at water bottles in a supermarket in my life, or young men clutching at low dose asthma inhalers either. Somewhat amusingly, none of these behaviours have shown up since.

If people could have shown any level of responsibility... but there we have it, don't we? They can't see beyond the end of their own nose, and this is why we are here, finding out.

Clover is one... but you might not like the dev.

Hmm google suggests this: https://www.minitool.com/news/enable-tabs-in-file-explorer-on-windows-10.html

Excuse us for being sceptical that businesses will actually be held accountable. We know legally they are, but will forced arbitration or delayed court proceedings mean people too poor to afford a good lawyer for long will have to fuck off?

There's a lot of gay men who don't even consider that these laws will apply to them. It doesn't help that a lot of people will say "oh those laws only apply to locals, they won't enforce them on international people".

Connect has been my favourite. Boost is another, as has Sync. I should probably check out Jerboa, apparently it's improved a lot.

I saw you posted this in another app's comments. I know Connect does 'scrolling past post marks as read', and also has 'hide read posts'. Not sure if that might be up your alley.
