  • First thing I thought was whether we have an equivalent community to r/ihadastroke. And it looks like we do! https://lemmy.world/c/ihadastroke

  • Importing Google Photos Takeout to Immich
  • Jumping in to second immich-go, just used it recently. I had no issues other than Google Photos not giving me the data for shared albums (most of mine), which seems to be a Google Takeout issue.

  • Worldbuilding: An Aesthetic of Coherence?
  • A great reminder that if you are seeking more realism in your worldbuilding, you should be introducing intentional mistakes, errors, and flaws in the "facts" of the world.

  • What's coming in Season 5
  • That's it lads, For Rock and Stone!

  • US airman dies after setting himself on fire outside Israeli embassy
  • I'm not sure what you mean by that, can you clarify? For example, I took that as a question that makes someone think about how they could be making the world a better place.

  • [solved] How do I set up actionable notifications?
  • Interesting, I haven't heard that til now. Do you know how long it does wait for?

  • Mr Bean actor Rowan Atkinson blamed for slow electric car sales
  • Yes, thank you for mentioning the real solution - less cars of any kind. Public transport, cities where you can walk around, and bikes are pretty great too.

  • Sailing into a Sea of Thieves community
  • Haven't been playing in ages, but still very glad to see new people joining my favourite game in years. You and your kids will love it, it's a spectacular game.

  • Share your favorite automations
  • 15 minutes before my alarm or my partner's goes off, the bedroom lights start to gradually fade on for the next half hour. A few minutes after that the HVAC gets reset to daytime temperatures. The hallway light turns on before we get out there, and if it is still dark outside (this time of year in Canada!) the entrance lights and kitchen lights also turn on ahead of time. Lastly it gets the dehumidifier started for the day and turns off Night Mode across all my automations.

    Usually it results in us waking up gently, a bit before our alarms and we can turn them off without any blaring sounds.

  • He drives an electric truck in Yellowknife, but his home can't handle the charger it came with
  • Lol, that must have been after the courses describing all the laws in my country, how to pay taxes, and general adulting - which somehow I missed. As a kid I thought that might be how that worked, but it turns out there is too and you have to go out of your way to learn some of those things.

  • Pipelines got me like
  • For Rock and Stone!

  • 5+ man group games
  • Muck can be a pretty hilarious time with a bunch of friends. Practically any Halo game has some kind of game mode that a bunch of friends can enjoy.

  • US telecom regulator wants to bar cable TV early-termination fees
  • Do people still watch and pay for cable TV?

  • What are your must-have selfhosted services?
  • PiHole - blocking ads Home Assistant - home automation, smart lighting & more Nginx Proxy Manager - easy reverse proxying Lemmy - here we are, on Lemmy Immich - Google photos replacement Motioneye - for putting video streams into home assistant and getting motion detection WyzeBridge - connecting my Wyze doorbells to Motioneye Doods2 - quick to set up object/person recognition for video and camera streams

  • Sonoff Motion Sensors - These are Really Bad
  • Interesting, I have had extremely few false positives, and more complaints about their 1 minute timeout after activating :/

  • Designs chosen for mini nuclear reactors
  • Great call on the source - solar just doesn't scale like nuclear does!

  • The Government is funding over $20 million for the development of Surveillance Clothing called SMARTePANTS
  • However they don't seem to have any of that tech yet:

    "In order to transfer this research into AST products, revolutionary new materials and manufacturing techniques are needed to develop complete and integrated systems containing mechanically deformable and durable: 1) power sources, 2) sensors, 3) computation and data storage, and 4) electrically conductive system component “wires” and interconnects."
