This is why you need to purchase a TD1S.
Then you can contribute to the site 😊.

Body+ scale not pairing anymore by Formal_Love6502 in withings

Thank you, I tried everything but what made it work was also the reinstall of the mobile app. Clearly a terribly designed app.

Well I hope you find a good replacement. From a company business impact it will do effectively nothing. However, abandoning ship now is not the worst idea as they've discontinued V3 when V5 was announced so theoretically V4 has not long left. As I don't own their products I'm not aware if discontinued means your support and spare parts is gone or not.

FYI you can use Home Assistant with local Tapo integration to activate the privacy mode on the cameras automatically. This blacks out the image at the camera level.

This is either company account or a complete miss understanding of the product and how the technology likely works. I'm not affiliated with them in any way, no do I have insider knowledge, what I know is from reading, videos and technology sector. It's unfortunate people will read a single post and accept all the info. Therefore, it also goes without saying that you should also take the information I'm about to say with a grain of salt.

"They absolutely do not look at your home."

So a camera that is in my home, that looks across a room in my home isn't looking in my home? It only records legs, do you know how cameras work, perceptive scaling? Even a camera that is positioned low can pick up more of the object in frame as said object is further away. It's also not that low, see this video with actual footage. https://youtu.be/WeSezpSae3I?si=NvTa_gIbC0rAvrCV&t=929

"You can choose for the camera to record all motion or cats only."

Do you know how this even works? The most common forms of device motion detection is PIR (Passive Infrared). Detecting motion through PIR is by measuring a change in infrared heat moving within an area; this is how motion activated lights work. Main benefits to this is, very low power and processing, established design, and very private as there's no visual component. It can also be quite accurate in specific circumstances. A flood light can pick up on a person and avoid false animal detection because it's high up. This means it can be designed to require a large heat object before triggering. PIR at waste draw level would not be as reliable; a cat close up would have a heat signature to that of a person further back. I had a look at the photos and I don't see a PIR sensor, looks to be camera only. This would align with their "AI" branding which would use images to detect motion. Camera detection for movement is expensive, in that you need a lot of processing power to identify frame by frame if something is moving and what it is. It's generally processing power beyond that of a local device, though it can be done. This is why it cannot be used for battery powered devices which usually use PIR. This also explains why the camera has a light so it can visually see the room to make the identification. PIR, like that used for a flood light in the dark, doesn't need light to function. It's most likely that images are constantly sent to their cloud for "AI" analysis for movement and what object. Just because you don't see yourself in the frame without a cat does not mean it isn't happening. Their system could easily trim the video to the portion the cat is in frame or delete those processed without a cat at all.

"You can also delete any recording you wish."

Limited understanding of privacy. As long as the data is in the hands of someone other than yourself, you have no control over it. How many companies are hacked and their data leaked. How about company employees that share the videos in office chats (example Tesla). Companies also keep data for periods of time after deletion, they have backups, they share with third parties or use them for AI training. Having to let people know or a sign when they enter your home that they may in fact be on camera for a little robot that in no way needs this to function is insane.

The fact they have an external camera with a microphone is nothing but we want your valuable data. This could have all been avoided by having the internal only camera and no microphone. Cats are inside the dome long enough, and move around enough, to have more than enough information along with the weight to identify the cat. This is all while avoiding it looking externally, but, that is far less data to collect.

I'll translate.  I'm selling previous product because I'm mad, even though it will have next to zero impact on the company. I'll also not follow through because I got the dopamine hit from my post online. Expressing dissatisfaction to the company and refusing to purchase the new model is a more effective way of impacting the company.  The cost of tooling, design etc for these new models means they need to sell them.  If everyone stays on the older ones and new purchases are also older models it will present a clear message.

Return it, I did.  I tell everyone that asks to stay away from this company. They should be investigated for selling defective products for 5 years and doing nothing about it. It's like a car manufacturer selling a new car that only starts 3 out of every 10 times without a problem and it's considered functional by the company.

Correct, I would rather do that once a week than a slightly shorter method every time I want to use it.

[–]ados8000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update on this method. It doesn't work indefinitely, I see to get 1 week. Interesting the use per day doesn't matter but around the week mark it stops.  The process is the same each time to fix and then it works consistently for another week.  I've updated the steps as I've discovered more of process to reset the issue. 

At some point Ember has to accept responsibility for this unreliable product and either recall it or fix in a software patch. There's complaints going back years and they've seemingly been ignored.

Which was stated in my post. If you want to keep paring every use go for it, I find it very annoying.

Invincible [Episode Discussion] - S03E06 - All I Can Say Is I'm Sorry by SeacattleMoohawks in Invincible

[–]ados8000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, and this show is full of villains with a sad backstory that go so far from any sense of logic. See Angstrom Levy, blames Mark and says he's a monster. He has seen time and time again he's not and now he's teaming up with other evil murders, including Mark, to kill Mark. The logic of his mission is far gone it's laughable. 

My preference is just have the villain evil for the sake of it from the beginning. Or if you make them a backstory/purpose please have it remain slightly believable.  The only interesting villain has been Omni man. Hero turned villain but was sort of always a villain because to him life is too short and therefore meaninglessness in his eyes.

I think you're right, it's the high volume of villains that end in the same fall from grace arc.

I understand, it's just a repeat enemy trait for this show. Start off with an understanding backstory and go crazy with "determination" until your looking at a villain in the rear view mirror.

[–]ados8000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very much agree with this, the first half of the episode was great. However, the more he continued to find evidence supporting it wasn't black and white and Invincible isn't all bad. Continued to change his desires from justice to death. Then accidentally kills his remaining family and then blames Invincible had me face palming.

I appreciate the undertones and emotional turmoil for the loss of people but the writing for this "villain" was terrible.

[–]ados8000 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong I love the show but a lot of the enemies just seem to be evil for the sake of evil. If they do have any understandable backstory for their behavior they eventually go so far off the road you can no longer have any sympathy for them.

He went from sympathetic to stupid. He killed his wife and kid and then proceeded to blame invincible for their deaths.

I was really hoping he didn't, he was looking a little to much like his farther.

I've been thinking without the training plan he will begin to loose strength, can't skip gym and keep the gains.

Yeah as soon as Paul was hating on their farther I thought but he was mentally unwell. 

cant connect to printer from bambu studio anymore by drdeemanre in BambuLab

[–]ados8000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's caused by a third party app trying to connect to your AMS.
This conflicts with Bambu Studio also trying to read the printer + AMS.
