I’m really interested to see what this device database will actually look like, aside from a “please share your automations and the device integrations they rely on.” There’s a lot of information to sift through, there!

I loved the changes made from their previous big roadmap (the new dashboard is so much better), but this seems a lot more ambitious, so I’m cautiously optimistic.

History can teach us a lot.

The new model I got was definitely a better design and seems just as well made as the last one, but I have seen that many of the new designs have what I’m assuming are plastic pieces, which does suck.

When a friend broke the saw blade on my Leatherman (which was ~15 years old), I sent it back to them for repair. A short while later I received a brand new Leatherman with a letter saying they were so sorry, but they didn’t have parts for my old model anymore, so they sent me a brand new, better model. The letter also said they understood people had emotional connections to their tools, so if I decided I wanted the old broken tool back instead, they would hold onto it for me for a few months, and all I’d need to do was email them asking to swap.

10/10 the best customer service I’ve ever received.

I did learn this one the hard way. This is excellent advice.

Some friends and I all recently picked this game up, and it has been super fun. I’ve been describing it as Left 4 Dead 2, but with meaningful character classes and decent melee.

I have Type 1 Diabetes, and I’m always looking for fun/interesting ways to help me manage it, including some Home Assistant tools, like the Nightscout integration.

If your son is using an insulin pump, why are you taking a vial of insulin with you day-to-day? Even small pumps like the omnipod hold much more than one day’s worth.

When I do need to bring vials of insulin with me (if I’m camping in the summer for more than a few days, for instance), I just use a Frio pouch. They’re little evaporative coolers that keep the insulin cold enough. I’m sorry for ignoring your question, but it sounds like you could be making things more difficult for yourself than you have to.

Checks are still used all the time, though, so I’m sure someone has said this recently.

I forgot this was happening today until I saw a line going out the door at a medical marijuana shop. It certainly made my bike to work smell more interesting, but I’m glad my fellow Ohioans can now imbibe in relative peace.

I’m purposely avoiding seeing content about this game, but Gunpoint and Heat Signature are made by the same guy and are two of my most favorite single player games ever, so I’m very excited to hear people are loving the demo!

How had I never seen this? This is brilliant!

I have a ninja professional and my brother has a Vitamix. Yes, his is a little quieter and nicer feeling, but it is nowhere near $500 better.

It’s finally time to play Fallout: New Vegas.
