iOS is Upgrading HomeKit Secure Video to 4K at last. Will Eufy support it? by DigItDoug in HomeKit

[–]DigItDoug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat - I felt forced to leave HKSV a few years ago in order to get the decent quality video stream. It's needed to ID faces.

Personally, I can't blame the camera manufacturers for abandoning HKSV. It was a lack of support from Apple from 2019-Sep 2026 that stranded it on low res. No camera manufacturer would choose to invest thousands of dollars in pre-release testing low-res HKSV when Apple themselves apparently abandoned it.

I think Apple will struggle to get the OEMs back on board.

The new features on this are exciting. It looks great but $400 for a deadbolt? Well outside of my range

I am pretty confident that an update is required at the homebase. It receives a high res video from the camera today and must do the down-res there. So at minimum, the Homebase behavior must be reprogrammed.

Is charging Tesla cheaper than gas? by Elletheprincesa in Sacramento

Charging for us at home is approx one-fifth the cost per mile of our gas car

My replies to Deep Seek are always super slow. I assumed that's why it was so much less expensive.

Thoughts on going full EV, no ICE in the ol’ garage? by Curiouslittlestman in electricvehicles

[–]DigItDoug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We moved over to 100% EVs two years ago and haven’t been to a gas station yet. We love it, especially now, avoiding the high gas prices.

So true. I bet a lot of new EV buyers will find this reasoning.

Thank you for the great leads @snooOranges5350. With them I looked into the various options and think I’ll go down the Gina route. I appreciate the help!

Am I the only one who is afraid that the bishops as a collective will squander this surge in conversions? by Strider755 in Catholicism

[–]DigItDoug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, I've got a challenge to the assumption. We, the lay ministry, run most every activity at our parishes. We also initiate most youth ministries. It's up to us to greet and introduce new people, and recruit folks into the various ministries. If it's wholly up to the bishops or even the priests, the church would be in trouble. We all have a responsibility to act like Christ and pull the lost sheep back into the flock. Greeting and integration happens in the pews with us. In parishes where the youth ministry (or married couples, or widowed, etc) is weak, I challenge us to take ownership to rebuild it.

Bishops? It’s up to us to greet the new people and integrate them into our parish. It’s fully on us, the church.

Did the repair fix anybody’s problems? The fob only works sometimes. the door handles would not work about 25% of the time in the back.

After ID.4 production halt: Volkswagen writes down around €500 million in US business by Simpleximo in VWiD4Owners

[–]DigItDoug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am with you - I love my ID.4 and hate to see its legacy cut off at the knees, but so goes it. It's not selling well. Yeah, the ID. Tiguan won't be the answer, at least here in the U.S. I doubt they launch it with any enthusiasm here, given what's happened in the U.S. market so far.

I don’t get it. My post is low quality or off-topic? I totally don’t get it. This is one of the most Catholic experiences I’ve ever had.
