@stux I'm pretty sure all I ever got from Nero was a bunch of shiny coasters.

@foone It's the damned raisins that look like chocolate chips that should be regulated.

@foone Seriously, the 'moisture' sensor in these is basically a poorly made capacitor with a temperature coefficient that is as predictable as Powerball.You should put the whole thing on a couple of strain gauges and use the loss of water mass to end the cycle.

@foone Blame the 1968 Carterfone decision.Acoustic couplers only had to exist because AT&T had a legal prohibition on direct electrical connection to their network.

@stux He should sell his organs. All of them.I'm sure there's a baboon that can use his four-sizes-too-small heart.

@foone Just from their UI, it's obvious Roku are a bunch of dicks.

@ignaloidas @whitequark @typeswitch I'm solidly in the "whitespace is for æsthetics, not control" camp.

@futurebird I have a GE Cafe range, with a touchscreen for oven control. There's no straightforward way to disable the glass touchscreen, so cleaning it results in randomly activating functions (there's apparently no key-jam detection to ignore multiple touches).There is zero tactile feedback, just high pitched, low volume beeps.

@futurebird I got the impression that they were masking the crowd when the chants ("Thank you Joe") were causing the speakers to pause for too long. There's no way a crowd that size would stop on cue, even if they knew they were supposed to.Then there was AP's stream on YouTube, that froze during Nancy Pelosi's speech, then returned with no audio at all…

The FCC is seeking public comment on NextNav Inc.'s request to reallocate the 902-928 MHz portion of the radio spectrum, currently assigned to what is commonly known as the "ISM" (Industrial, Scientific, & Medical) band, to use for their Terrestrial Positioning system, a backup for GPS.This would render inoperable Z-Wave, countless garage door openers, & millions of other useful but unlicensed devices in the Americas.#HomeAssistant #ZWave #Amateur_Radio #ISMhttps://www.fcc.gov/document/wtb-and-oet-seek-comment-nextnav-petition-rulemaking
