Feels right. As much as I wanted to try and build/play some kind of support or utility, the character balance just wildly favours hard-carries with ults that pretty much guarantee at least one kill.

I think if they can tweak for some more reasonable support/utility then we’ll see better outcomes across the board

As someone older than 33, seeing “preserves” and “and it still works!” hits in a way I was not expecting to get hit this morning

I’m not in a place to actually help as I’m on vacation: but since it’s a compile issue, if you posted a minimally failing-to-compilr version (no credentials) of your full YAML someone could conceivably be able to troubleshoot it

They had a c&c team shooter at one point that was a blast.

Imho they really missed out on defining the split-role FPS/RTS genre, they had all the peices but just never put them together.

Even in that case, it’s easy enough to solve: grant permission explicitly under the condition that the assets remain in the context of the game (eg, don’t export them to other games).

Consider other games that explicitly provide a blanket grant for people permission to use their game footage in videos (Team17).

The modding community is the reason Bethesda has been able to get away with selling the same game for over a decade.

There are a million ways to solve the “legal problem”, such as “don’t initiate legal action against moddders”.

This wasn’t a problem that needed a solution.

It also assumes that you can’t directly sell power back to the grid, which without power efficient mining hardware would still be a more valuable thing to do with the electricity.

Certain types of scheduled announcements usually have insider trading blackouts associated with them automatically, like quarterly earnings reports.

But you ABSOLUTELY can time other announcements favourably around your predefined transactions.

I bought a 5 pack of xiaomi temp sensors from Ali express… They were like $5 each? They’re Bluetooth but you can bridge to HA using an esp32 with esphome. Really cheap way to get some resolution on how and where and when the house is heating/cooling.

I was surprised at how poorly I understood how to manage the temp of my home. Knowing really is half the battle.

I can’t find them in Costco’s in Canada anymore… I’d buy a ton more if they were available. A pain to flash, but very worth it for the price

I think the part that you need to think through carefully is how moderation policies may differ between communities or even instances. And there are a ton of reasons you might want to not subject users by default to comments from another (eg, a community aimed at a topic with “PG” comment moderation mixing with a similar community that is targeted more towards adults).

So, keeping in mind that the “social contract” of allowing community members to remain protected by the community rules that they signed up for should be something that can be preserved.

Not out of reach, though. Opt-in to per community xposts. Filter out by first non-allowed-community comment per comment thread. For sure do-able.

Just important to consider why we have communities in the first place and to consider the different types of stakeholders.

Oh damn, that looks especially rad! I do run Home Assistant and pipe everything through a selfhosted MQTT server, so there are a ton of use cases I can think of for video detections being piped through MQTT for me. Ty!

I’ve been looking at something for my cameras. I got Zoneminder running but configuring its behaviour was a nightmare.

All I want is to keep a limited rotating backup of a few cameras. Would Shinobi do that?

If you have any smart devices in your home (and even many use cases outside of that) you could run “homeassistant” to pipe all your different smart devices through a common, extensible, scriptable interface.
