As an alternative, we have found bulbs that can run tasmota with the MQTT integration to be perhaps the most reliable part of our smart home (as long as the hardware already had a descent CRI). I've heard good things about ESP home too, but we have not tried it.

If someone has some light bulbs that are laggy (due to cloud integrations) or a pain to use due to software, its worth checking out of tasmota or esp home can be installed on them to locally pair with something like home assistant. It turned a regretful purchase into a nice addition.

With that said, we don't buy connected devices any longer without checking internet and cloud requirements first.

They knew, he just made it too easy from the sounds of it 😂

Peepol we'll point at ur mis 🍖.

Some smaller comedy venues do the same now.

When I first read it for some reason my brain registered Uruguay. I was thinking the departure from oil and taxes funding public works didn't quite fit the no taxes perspective of conservatives.Glad to hear they are not poisoning what seems like a progressive country.

I do feel bad for Paraguayos though, from some short YouTube videos on the country it seems like it has suffered enough throughout the recent times, although I'm no expert or even familiar enough with Sudamerica.

I love blocking annoying accounts. Not interested in low quality creators that put out 3-4 long form content videos every week and 3 daily shorts.

Unfortunately I told my family that there is a coffee shop my partner's family partially owns. They gifted us a Starbucks gift card because "we like coffee" :|

Once you start gifting cash, you also start seeing how unnecessary it is sometimes to gift people things. Family (that you like, but don't meet much) get together for Christmas? Why bother having adults get gifts that then they gift back in form of another gift and no one really uses?

I'm OK with gifting kids some cash (if possible) since its a one way thing, but once 2 adults would have gifted each other cash back and forth, it exposes how silly it would have been.

Or long term maintainability.

A horse mostly, they are expensive to keep around nowadays.
