Many states in the US have similar regulations. For example, California’s regulations are famously similar to GDPR.

People should bombard them with DSAR requests.
If you’re in a state that support data subject removal requests, like California, email support@teatheapp.com and say this is a formal DSAR request to remove all of your PII.
They have 45 days to follow through.

Re the locks - my general thought is that if you really want to get into my house, you’re going to get into my house. A rock or brick is very effective.
Locks just lower the potential for easy crimes of opportunity.

I ended up going down the matter, home assistant, HomeKit route so I have some options for local network control.

It’s better to just purchase a temperature probe with wifi. Those are handy as hell.

Connected HVAC can be pretty damn great depending on your house. It’s changed my energy usage a lot, and I like being able to adjust temps without walking downstairs in the middle of the night. Although having your thermostat lose cloud support ever 10-15 years is pretty shitty.
Connected doors are also great for handing out virtual keys and ensuring that stuff is shut and locked when you’re away.

I would argue under 60 = F is the norm. It’s even quite a common trope in movies / TV. Example:

Maybe where you went to school. I always had Fs at 59% and under… just like in Wikipedia’s article. en.wikipedia.org/…/Academic_grading_in_the_United…
I attended and worked in a couple schools in the states. I saw some alternatives like pass / fail and SBG, but whenever it was the A-F system, 60% was a D-

- Comment on PNG has been updated for the first time in 22 years — new spec supports HDR and animation 4 weeks ago:
Speaking for animation, your browser probably already supports APNG. APNG is 21 years old and has decent adoption. But it’s officially part of the club.
That said, APNGs are fat as fuck and they’re a pretty old solution to animated graphics with an alpha channel. Don’t expect to see everyone making APNGs all of the sudden. There is a reason why people have kept it at a distance.

Animated PNG has been trying to be an extension to the PNG spec for 20+ years.

I mean, the company is literally named after this fucking thing from LOTR. These people are comic book level evil.

Yeah man, reverting back to the old stabilized rent control policies and opening a city owned wholesale grocers, and making DoorDash pay minimum wage. Socialism as in Norway, not Stalin.
Stalin was the dude who purged all of his dissenters from his party, implemented mass deportations, and threw people in lawless gulags. Kind of like America’s current president.

Although, you could also argue that those taxes pay for informing and influencing citizens of foreign nations.
America’s media ecosystem is dominated by Fox, Sinclair, and other state party media players. There is a strategic benefit to having a media outlet that doesn’t run through the state media filter.

A parade isn’t a parade without a skeletal foot.
