Ya, I get it, and anything smart now needs to be able to work with home assistant locally.

If we had to do it over again we'd have likely gotten something different, but the features you do get can be useful!

Ya, hard disagree here, while 100% the new features could have been kept in device, vs cloud but the difference between our (770?) that just bounces around until it runs out of battery (and gets stuck in the SAME place Everytime it hits that spot vs. the newer one vacuums the whole floor and can be told to avoid the problematic area(s) is pretty huge.

Now, the new one has a host of its own issues but when it works it's a much better product that produces much better results.

All that said I think the software has gone to crap over the years and the newer (i7) actually is less reliable than it was the first 6-8 months we owned it.

No, we don't buy breeds, we generally rescue our pets, our current two came from SAAP.

Guess the food in their bowls will sit uneaten or when they get fed junk (human) food they'll just not be interested?

Obviously there are exceptions but that's not driving fat drugs for pets.

Or stop feeding them so much? I've had pets my whole life. A cat and dog now, but multiple cats and dogs since I was born . My parents had cats when I was born.

Not one was ever fat. This doesn't seem complicated.

I use Facebook behind as many adblockers as I can, I use social fixer on top of that (browser extension that helps prune FB even more)

On my phone, in the app, this doesn't prevent them from suggesting friends, suggesting reels, suggesting random people or pages to follow

I use fb mostly for groups not just telling everyone what I'm doing or caring about what everyone else is.

But I make it to 1-3 things I have to hide (x out of) and I just bounce, close and pause the app

Like if I open fb and I immediately see a post asking me to follow something I just get out and open lemmy...

Screw meta

I run PiHole in my house I VPN to my house when away to get that sweet ad blocking I run unlock origin I run social fixer

I don't see actual ads in FB just their BS they want me to interact with over my actual feed

Sweet, will my bill go down?

as opposed to those friendly sanctions?

Should be pretty easy for those 600k people to find other living wage jobs that will allow them to keep buying stuff off Amazon.

Well unless he's a total moron and not just playing one on TV he already made all his money from all the gullible people over the last 25 years so, why's he care?

Unless he pulls a my pillow guy he could just back into the shadows and live his life a lot better off than the rest of us.

(I did not read the article, just making assumptions)

What if they just ask your age as step 1 of the setup?
