I got to thinking today about how my TiVo HD from 2006 still works fine. Strange how a company going out of business can still support decades old hardware, but a gazillionaire conglomerate like Google just “doesn’t have the resources”.
Studios shouldn’t be allowed to own tv channels. (Or cable/internet providers).

The website you linked to says that it’s not a class action suit, but a “mass arbitration” which I’ve never heard of. It also claims that Google has a “no class action” clause in its warranty/user agreement. I don’t see how that’s legal, but whatever. I also wonder if that clause was there at the time of purchase for gen 1 and gen 2 thermostats.
While an interesting idea, that project wants what amounts to the cost of a new thermostat in exchange for a kickstarter project. Might as well just buy a new thermostat.
Surprisingly, these still work as dumb thermostats after the cutoff date.
Was hoping something like Homebridge could be used to still control these, but so far no luck. After the cutoff they can be used manually like a traditional thermostat, which is a surprise coming from Google. I still fear they are going to generate a bunch of ewaste from people replacing them.
Most Sonicares eventually develop a horrible noise due to a shifting internal part. There are YouTube videos showing how to disassemble them to fix this, but it’s probably not worth the effort. The good news is, the videos explain how to disassemble the casing.
I’ve never noticed a change in taste, but I mostly buy 2% milk. Fairlife does taste creamier to me than other brands, likely due to its “ultra filtered” process however that works. I do wish that brand came in cartons instead of plastic bottles though.
Not really. All I know is when I buy Lactaid, or Fairlife, or one of the many other lactose-free brands in the US, their sell by date is usually around 30 days. “Normal” milk is usually sell by 7-10 days here.
But does it have to be done during rush hour?
Tip: Lactose-free milk tastes the same, is easier on your digestive system, and doesn’t expire for over a month.
Isn’t this how Skynet started?
I think it’s more likely just Tim Cook. The buck stops with him. Someone needs to say no to some of this stuff (liquid glass, yearly release schedules, etc.) and that someone should have been him.
They did. Someone at the top has been ruining that experience lately.
Would this be a good replacement for 12v lead acid car batteries as well?

Just doing everything they can to drive people away from Windows.
Does that still exist?
Quite a claim from the guy who labeled things “Full self driving” and “Autopilot”. 🙄
