Nothing new; they just renamed "unavailable in Germany" to "sexual content".

Add conditioner for me because I have super hard water. And my soap is body wash. But yeah, same principle.

The second move is for target acquisition and often precedes a pounce. The wide pupils let in more light, enabling a more precise pounce.

Why the cat's body is preparing to pounce is entirely situational. Maybe it's a hunt, maybe it's play, maybe it's just because the cat is being a little overenergetic derp. When you spend time living with a cat you usually learn to identify them pretty reliably. Especially the last one.

Ich würd' ja so gern bei dir bleiben
Doch der Wind ruft mich mit Macht hinaus
Wenn die Zeit reicht, dann werd ich dir schreiben
Doch ein Seemann, der hat kein Zuhaus
Ja ein Seemann, der hat kein Zuhaus ♫

Agreed. Ultra-processed wannabe meat isn't the best option and there are some genuinely good plant-based alternatives that aren't held back by trying to be meat.

That said, most dairy replacements are markedly sad with the exception of cashew milk and plant-based cream replacement (where flavor and shelf life are so obviously superior that I stopped buying the real stuff).

It's quite popular in North German cuisine. As someone from North Germany I can confidently say this counts against kale as a food.

Not necessarily. hCaptcha is not very reliable in my experience. Sometimes it wants you to select multiple pictures but only shows one that matches the prompt. Or or gives you multiple matching images but still says you're wrong. Sometimes it tells you you passed but then doesn't bother setting the token correctly so you have to do it again. Of course all of these can combine until you solve variations of the same damn captcha thirty times in a row.

hCaptcha is such a horrible buggy mess that my base assumption is that I'll get trapped in an infinite loop anytime I see it.

I'd also support it if I thought it might affect me at some point. 5% isn't much and I'd still have well more than enough money for a lavish lifestyle.

Being insecure is fine. Being insecure and then never shutting up about how great you are and how everyone should be like you is deeply annoying. Lie to yourself if it makes you feel better; everyone does that. But don't insist I should be part of it.

Most newer drives won't give you the kind of direct access you need for an accurate copy. Some disc areas necessary for dealing with copy protection are inaccessible except by specially blessed playback software.

Some older drives ignore this restriction but newer ones, especially all 4K-capable drives, don't.

There's an alternative firmware called LibreDrive that enables a low-level access mode where an application has direct control over the laser assembly. That plus ripping software aware of this mode (MakeMKV) will get the data off the disc. Add known decryption keys and you can get at the raw video files.

I mean, it will be vastly more efficient for certain tasks. Like night and day.

Previously, a DOS attack could hope to exhaust the service's bandwidth out maybe overwhelm its load balancer. And that needed a large botnet for most services. Now you can run a small-scale attack and exhaust the business's token budget or (if they don't have token limits) their operational budget. That's incomparably more efficient!

And all of that without needing to wait for exploits; it's an aspect of normal operation.

The future is now, old-timer.

That's just misinformation. I put some shows onto a Jellyfin instance and not a single one has disappeared. Not even an email about something being dropped soon. So that's a core part of the Netflix experience you're just not getting with Jellyfin.

Heck, it doesn't even randomly force me to watch in 1080p or 720p despite being on the 4K plan and the show/movie being available in 4K. It's like Jellyfin isn't even trying.

I'm looking to replace an existing Hue setup and some dumb lamps, especially since Hue is hiding basic functionality behind a user account these days. I'm thinking of going with Nanoleaf instead.

What I have right now:

  • Bridge: Hue bridge
  • Living room: Hue pendant light + Hue E27 bulb, controlled by a Hue switch and optionally synced to a Linux PC running Huenicorn
  • Bedroom: Hue ceiling light, controlled by two Hue switches
  • Guest room: Dumb LED light
  • Bathroom: Dumb LED light

What I want to install:

  • Bridge: SLZB-06* for Matter+Thread, optionally talking to a Home Assistant instance
  • Living room: 2x 3-pack Nanoleaf Skylight, controlled by a Sense+ switch and optionally synced to a 4D V1 camera
  • Bedroom: Nanoleaf E27 bulb, controlled by two Sense+ switches
  • Guest room: Nanoleaf E27 bulb, controlled a Sense+ switch
  • Bathroom: Nanoleaf E27 bulb, controlled a Sense+ switch

Now there's a few questions I have:

  • Would this setup work or am I missing something? Nanoleaf's website is quick to mention several home automation hubs, none of which I want to operate.
  • Can I actually sync the Skylights with the 4D camera? The documentation only seems to talk about the corresponding light strips.
  • Is there another option for screen syncing that works with Linux?
  • Can I set a bulb to change its color temperature on a fixed cycle? If so, I could skip one of the Sense+ switches.
  • If Nanoleaf's stuff is unsuitable for my needs, is there another alternative that isn't Hue?
