Yep, that's basically what I have.

I'm ready to buy a factory new car, when I find one where the data is mine.

Yes, but this is not one of those times.

Imagine someone poops on your doorstep, and then removes half of it.

You can say it's good that they removed some of it, but that's probably not the point you would want to make.

None of them were trying to push privacy as a competitive advantage.

This is why I don't have a new car. I'm hoping I get one where I have access to my own data (in eg. Home Assistant), and the manufacturer doesn't.

Most of them, probably. It's a new requirement in EU to get 5/5 stars safety rating.

That's also why it's specifically 5 features - that's the bare minimum.

I'll bite.

You haven't watched the whole thing did you?

True. For several reasons.

First of all it was Trump who wanted and came up with the deal, why would it be "a setup and they never planned for the deal to go through"?

That is a VERY common political method. "Stupid" suggestions that will never get accepted comes up every day for various reasons.

1). Trump said USA gave most money to Ukraine, Z said no they didn't, EU gave more, Trump said no we did, Z started arguing, Trump smiled, said well discuss it later, patted Z on the back.

What was he supposed to do? Just accept it? If he does fight the lies, more people will think that Trump is right.

Now people saw that Trump had nothing to back up his claim.

2). Zelensky said the war was between Ukraine and Russia, and that USA could be allowed in negotiation after peace as a partner... And I think this really pissed off Vance and Trump.

And how is that a mistake?

3). Zelensky said that "maybe if you believe the Russian lies," in response to one of Trump's statements, as if he was on r/politics.

Sounds interesting, I'd like to see that part. Can you provide a link with a timestamp? I tried finding it myself but found nothing.

4). he trotted out those pictures, with that condescending tone, acting like Trump is just a big orange dummy that needs his kindergarten lesson in war. He literally talks to Trump like he is a child while handing him the pictures.

It is very common to re-enact when the cameras are on. This was Trumps chance to show compassion.

I just rewatched that bit trying to see it from your angle, and I don't see it at. He spelled out some stuff that any world leader shouldn't need to be told, I assume that was for the cameras.

Although you could be right, that Zelensky is approaching Trumps childish language. But even if that is true, how is this something that would upset Trump? Most people appreciate when you use their own way of communication, except when their way is some variation of bullying.

If I can't use it one-handed (using ALL physical buttons and ALL parts of the screen), then it's not a phone.

Seriously, this is how we used to define the difference between phones and tables - one-hand or two-hand use.

For a while I couldn't use voice to tell my car that I wanted to go home.

In my country we have a chain of real estate agencies called "Home", and it would show my navigation to the nearest branch.

Annoying, since almost every second trip I take is going home.

(I use navi for traffic info.)

Yes, it IS a big deal. Someone was hired to do the translation. Either by hand, or quality-check machine translation.

That someone is either not very good at English, or don't have time to do it right.

And this is where my nostalgia kicks in. Why aren't people doing it right anymore. Why is it so often just good enough to not get too many complaints. And why do we keep buying for these low quality services and products, instead of spending our money on fewer better products.

And yes, I know I'm part of the problem. I can get an X that seems good. Or I can get another X that seems almost as good, and the savings is enough to pay the airplane ticket to see my family on another continent. At least if I use the cheapest airline...

Yeah, it seems like "developer mode" is pretty much just "old fashion mode". If they do it right, it looks like a solution to me.

But doing it right includes making it offially supported.

Great.

1: How do I get an RTSP or ONVIF? Every time I try to buy one, the stuff that is recommended is no longer available, or practically only available in US. (I haven't checked in months maybe years, but this is where I usually get stuck.)

2: So I get a camera, and I have an rpi or PC-based server with storage. I can see a stream, but that's just an extra eye. How do I turn this into a surveillance camera, so I get a notification when there's movement, and an archive of people in the monitored area?

I'm hoping all the noise makes BL rethink sone choices before the new firmware goes live.

At best, they will change their mind enough that we don't loose anything significant, and we can just keep our printers.

Then all we have to consider is if we trust BL enough to buy more printers from them. Or even if we want to buy their filament.

3D printing is not as strong as injection molding the same material in the same shape.

But you can beef it up. You can 3D print stuff much bulkier than injection molding can do.

If you really want to, you can also use stronger materials.

Also, even the weakest cheapo stuff you can get is plenty strong for most stuff people are printing.

Knowing about what makes a part strong or weak helps a lot.
