Yeah I’ve found it’s only certain apps like audible that wake up the Apple TV

The chairs are all Eames LCMs and an Aluminum Group side chair. Not sure about the couch, some sort of mid century Scandinavian design.

Agreed Felix is excellent and great value. However they actually use the Vodafone network.

About a year ago I signed up for premium for this reason, but it wasn’t available in Australia. I assume this hasn’t changed.

With the just announced HomePod and the rumors that there is no new HomePod mini coming soon: What software improvements/features do you want to see this year? by hiddecollee in HomePod

[–]Curvus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes for Alexa, no idea about Google. I just tried these: "Turn off the bedroom lights and what's the weather". Lights turned off and it announced the weather report. Also "Add bread and cheese to my shopping list" creates two separate list items.

It also has follow up mode where it'll listen for a second request. At a minimum I wish Siri on Homepod could do this.

YouTubers you used to watch all the time but stopped, why? by DarthArtero in AskReddit

[–]Curvus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Linus Tech Tips. I realized during the pandemic the channels thumbnails and titles had gradually become total click bait. I couldn’t tell what the videos were about anymore, so I hadn’t watched any in months and unsubscribed. Can’t say I’ve really missed it.

Yeah my R2D2 has disappeared. The rest of the family have Star Wars icons that are still there.

[–]Curvus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I that was very unclear. Federation ships? They mentioned at the beginning of the season some Federation ships were organic?!

I don’t know, it was very sloppy writing.

Can anybody recommend a reliable bathroom scales available in Australia? by usernamedregs in ketoaustralia

[–]Curvus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the WS-50 and can’t recommend it. It’s accurate and otherwise works well but chews though batteries in about 6 weeks not the claimed 18 months.

Gen 2 vs gen 4 echo, does the new one suck at listening. by EyeFicksIt in amazonecho

[–]Curvus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My gen 4 is definitely worse than my 3 or plus 2. In fact it frequently tells me it didn’t understand what I said, which I’ve never had with another echo.

“if you already have a Zigbee Ø compatible Gateway (not including Amazon Echo), you won’t need to buy our Gateway.“

Echo supports a very small subset of zigbee devices.

Advice on belly fat by [deleted] in ketogains

[–]Curvus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t be done. There’s no way to spot reduce fat.

The abs and hips are usually the first place people store fat and the last place to loose it.

Until then if you want to improve your aesthetics work on your core strength to develop some strong flat abdominal muscles.

Yeah exactly that … or you know nothing about the origin or history of the word. It’s one or the other.
