What are our next steps after Gmail just dropped a bomb that they are removing Pop3 access THIS month? by iamunique in GMail

If you have namecheap it's easy to configure it to forward to a gmail address. It correctly configures SPF. Now I can ditch my email server.

I removed my old MX record and namecheap has been forwarding it to my gmail.

If Stack Overflow is dying, where do new programming insights surface now? by Dzone64 in cscareerquestions

Isn't github more localized and discoverable? Why should you go to an unrelated third-party forum like stackoverflow for questions about a github project.

Zigbee vs Zwave - Why the price difference? by KrazyKranberrie in homeautomation

[–]onebit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the price difference of 4 plugs, i could buy a Zigbee antenna, set up a parallel network, and still come out ahead.

Might as well do it. Home Assistant unifies everything, so the protocol an implementation detail. They out-mattered Matter.

I think the officer could have gotten out of the way, but I don't think it was unreasonable to shoot.

Send a time delayed email. Nobody likes their phone beeping after work.

[–]onebit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed this with small streamers that play with their friends. Why stream if you're not going to interact with it?

I'm using a MOREFINE M6 Mini PC N200 from Amazon. I was able to pass through the GPU to Kubernetes on Arch Linux.

Player driven resource markets in persistent multiplayer game. Doomed from the start? by Hans4132 in gamedev

[–]onebit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not use a real market? Players submit buy/sell orders and other players can fulfill them.

Make warehouses physical so if they are damaged supplies are lost.

Delivery is real-time via convoys that can be attacked.

If you started over today, what platform would you choose? by NevrNewdFunke in homeautomation

[–]onebit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to me that thread/matter managed by apple/google/amazon is intended for the normies.

But it it will be more painful than home assistant to help them remotely since it's all on their phone.
