CCS is already required in Europe, problem is there aren’t nearly as many CCS chargers in the US especially compared to Tesla’s network

It’ll definitely need some kind of quality enforcement to make hosting work. It’d be really useful if the app would automatically transcode to the server’s preferred quality when uploading, using the uploaders device. If the server has to transcode all the video the compute costs could get astronomical.
A dedicated server is needed because something needs to keep a catalog of the smart devices available on your network and ideally be accessible to many people in one household. You could make a system that went phone -> device but you would need to set up each device on each phone you wanted to use, which isn’t a great user experience. You could also run into issues where devices would need to handle multiple conflicting commands from different users coming in at once. Since smart devices are usually trying to use as little power as possible, that extra complexity would hurt you in that department. The third reason is that having a separate server enables automated workflows that would depend on an always online server that orchestrates multiple devices. For example, let’s say you have some automatic insulating blinds, a smart thermostat. You want to raise and lower the blinds to maximize your energy efficiency. Since you have the dedicated server, that server can check the temperature set point of your thermostat, current weather, and sunrise\sunset times. If it’s sunny out, and your set point is higher than the outdoor temperature, the server can raise the blinds to let warm sunlight in, and vice versa. If only your phone could control the devices a workflow like this couldn’t work when you were out of the house.
Looking at it this is definitely the case, its no better than fptp because you’re incentivized to give 5 stars to all candidates you can tolerate, and none to others.
VAT is just a shitty tax mechanisim, ends up being regressive (people with less money pay a larger portion of income), and really shouldnt be used. Land value tax + carbon tax is much better, and has nice side benefits like encouraging housing development and walkability.
The enshitification discourse on lemmy is fucking nuts. Service goes from you getting a gaming PC completely free, no strings attached except your play session is limited to hour, to the same thing but you see preroll ads while you queue. Any person with more than two braincells could tell it was meant to be a trial for the paid service, but of course people on here are gonna cry because they don’t get free toys anymore.
No voice chatrooms so it’s not similar. The most similar open source solution I’ve seen is Mumble
You can also hang on to silica gel packs that come in various packaging, they do the same thing as the rice but are more effective and wont clog up your device
If you want to share a set of feeds between devices, and sync read/unread, organization, etc.
Amazon is probably the worst of all of these. The only reason prime exists is to lock you into their store for all your purchases, when shipping orders should be a discrete charge for each shipment. At least the rest of these (except for Adobe and Nintendo, who suck about as hard) give you access to their infrastructure that lets you access the entirety of the product they offer instantly, whenever you have an internet connection.
The only thing he listed that isn’t a service is his Costco membership.
They got astronomically lucky the crypto boom fed directly into the Ai boom as it ended, otherwise it would have been 2017 all over again.
Thanks for the heads up, fixed the link.
There are open source solutions for robot vaccums provided you get a compatible robot
Unfortunately it’s not something the average person’s going to undertake.
Is there an rss feed for the current events page?
Also since this works on cards that are already old, it lets you eek out a few more years out of a card you already own rather than being a shitty excuse to overcharge for a weak card.
I got a set off ebay, Jesus christ they’re loud. I ended up returning them cause I could hear the grinding through my whole house
Pretty sure it is, I ended up trying the free trial because of all the yapping. Don’t bother. 99% of the results are the same as ddg.
The sms cost is for account creation and verification on new devices, being an sms client didn’t cost anything aside from maintaining that portion of the app
This is really only true if you don’t count dlss which mops the floor with fsr in terms of visual quality
