Modern jazz is dope. It takes influences from everywhere, and turns them into jazz. Which is what it's always done. In that sense jazz musicians playing electronica is no different to jazz musicians playing tin pan alley.

Pain in the arse if you're staying in Split and do a day trip to Dubrovnik. You pass thru customs and immigration twice in the space of 100 meters and 2 hours.

How long are you gonna keep a phone tho? 3 - 4 years? A fast-charged battery will be fine for that time span.

Foldables have it on the side/power button but are priced as if they had 100 ultrasonic fingerprint readers under each screen.

Probably quite warm. Snow is a good insulator because it traps a lot of air. And any breeze will go straight over the top.

If Firefox loses funding from Google, Google Chrome gets a monopoly and (hopefully) antitrust procedings.

The problem is 100% of what. There are so many paper tricks to make a billionaires income add up to zero.

"100% of all assets and income over a billion" might work, but you still have the problem of whose opinion do you take on the value of an asset.

Charity is up to the whim of an individual, whereas welfare is more like what society as a whole agreed is the right thing to do.

 

Westbrooks Brewery Laguna IPA gets a vote from me. 1g carbs per 440g can. Tastes like a proper IPA.

YouTube Music is humming along.

 

How hot would it have to be?

 

Let's play along. Can we name all of the quotes in all of the solos? I got Work Song and Birdland in the piano solo.

Help me choose a doorbell (self.smarthomes)

Wifey wants to be able to see who's at the door before answering.

It seems difficult to match up the capabilities of the various options to what we actually want, so I'm looking for suggestions or recommendations.

Don't want any cloud privacy nightmare nonsense. Don't really even want local storage. Just a live video stream from doorbell to iPhone and/or Android, triggered by the doorbell button.

I don't have HA or any other smart home stuff set up currently, but might like to add it in future.

Required features:

  • answer the door via iPhone, or Android, whoever picks it up first.
  • see who's at the door without letting them know we're looking. Like if I have to "answer" the doorbell before the video comes up, that'd be bad.
  • no cloud / subscription.
  • works without any storage.

Nice to have:

  • Option to add recording/storage later if I change my mind.
  • option for Home Assistant integration later if I ever get around to it.
  • totally wireless / rechargeable.
  • motion detection I guess.

Is there anything suitable out there?

Edit: also nice to have i.e. not required * internet connection so I can see who's at the door even when I'm outside of my wifi range.

 

What kinds of drivers are they the most beneficial for? What other questions do I need to ask myself?
