  • Home Assistant Voice PE speakers

    Jump

  • I have some gen 1 devices but at this point the hardware probably is worth replacing I think the mics are going bad on a few I have.

    There are 3rd parties that appear to be working on the LACK of music quality speaker with alternatives to the voice only PE.

  • Home Assistant Voice PE speakers

    Jump

  • As I said the PE has a bad speaker.. My existing devices are in 5 different rooms and mostly used for casual music listening. I have no intent on purchasing PEs + external speakers for every room. Particularly to clutter night stands.

    I am waiting for something more like this.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5yNEhcAjWU

    Or something like a amazon dot or google mini with an OK music speaker

  • Home Assistant Voice PE speakers

    Jump

  • I have refused to purchase one, hoping a better speaker comes out as I have several rooms to replace google devices in.

    I have seen cheap external computer speakers suggested several times, you can often find them dirt cheap at second hand and surplus stores.

  • US automakers broke their deals on running factories here. We have no native auto brands (other than attempted startups) building factories.

    No need to protect US brand pricing anymore, let’s make cars affordable to Canadians

  • Why do schools look like prisons and are there any countries where they don't?

  • At least in Japan they have fresh cooked food and teach students how to eat healthy.

  • Surprised that Apple allows use of the old layout still be thankyou I had not noticed it buried in the settings

  • Ban Religion

    Jump

  • Based on the exact wording I think this is a hard swap on religious people’s take on evolution and atheism to make that exact point.

  • Normal people, particularly old ones don’t like visual overhauls.

    There are several things since the update that I think are just objectively worst like how tabs work in safari that still bother me since the update.

  • What’s contributing most to the death of the open internet?

    Jump

  • Consolidations of forums onto subreddit style systems including Lemmy. They almost completely replaced individual forums with subtopics.

    While Lemmy is still open the consolidations really cut down on the independence of a lot of the older forums or even whole sites.

  • Govee, Matter, and HA

    Jump

  • Going to find out if things improved when I pull them out for Christmas again this year.

    Picked up the Christmas lights 2 last year mattter allowed for on off and solid color control not much else. Nothing like scenes or patterns.

    I used Govee2mqtt to control them instead from HA as the built in integration didn’t support that model yet last year and G2M just had way more features .

    Canada postal workers strike after government orders end to door-to-door delivery

    Jump

  • Government, has approved a cost saving measure that Canada Post has been asking for for years. It was mandated as a grandfathered item for existing service. New developments have all been community mailboxes for a long time.

    Government is being reasonable, the Union is not.

  • Does Pierre hate Harper

    Jump

  • He also rebranded it the Harper Government in all government ads and communications.

  • Non-single people, how long have you been with your S/O?

    Jump

  • 25 years, or at least by the date we sort of agree on the first year is a little fuzzy lol.

  • Carney deepfake ads on YouTube

    Jump

  • Ya most of the time it is the “exact” same video so it should be trivial for content ID to block. Hell we know they have auto transcripts they could even block on text it is so dumb.

  • Carney deepfake ads on YouTube

    Jump

  • Same I have reported a few of them already, YouTube is very slow to do anything about stuff like this.

  • Would you forgive someone who spread a rumour about you if they said they were "wrong about you"?

    Jump

  • Did they pass on incorrect information believing it was correct? or Did they spread a rumor because they didn't like you and they knew the info was incorrect?

    Huge difference.

  • Most Canadians now see US as a ‘threat,’ study reveals

    Jump

  • The funniest thing to me is that even my MOST right leaning relatives on Facebook etc have started posting anti Trump stuff. Trump unified Canada in our dislike of him.
