  That looks dope as hell. Unfortunately the one I took out of service is a 3rd Gen, but I have no qualms about tearing it apart to see what’s inside

  I had heard good things for Ecobee, but at some point last year they shut down their developer registrations. Still 100% accessible through the HomeKit integration, but it didn’t feel like a good move for them.

  I ended up going with a Meross MTS300 to replace my Nest. It feels like the local-only smart thermostat market is pretty dry, so I gave them a shot. There’s some 3rd party Home Assistant integration for it, which I actually saw a Meross dev offering up some internal docs in an issue so they could build better support. I thought was pretty chill of them. A much better attitude than “oh we don’t support this platform officially, cease building for it”. Supposedly it can operate entirely separately from their infra with some tweaks, but I’ve unfortunately ran out of weekend. Even without those tweaks it can operate without internet over Matter

  Wouldn’t recommend it personally yet until I have more time to find the quirks about it. In any case it’s been significantly more reliable than my Nest ever was

  I’m 90% sure vampires are less evil.

  Regardless, I can’t say I’ve ever seen Sundar Pichai in direct sunlight 🤷‍♂️

  1st and 2nd gen learning thermostats are going EOL by October 25th without any option to control locally (other than, yknow, the thermostat itself)

  But don’t worry! They’ll let you purchase the 4th gen for only $149.99 if you’re one of these owners!! Yippee!!!

  This is exciting for me only because I've been amassing a collection for their batteries, and not I also have a decent amount of boards & displays that go with them. I've been meaning to probe around on them but I've not had the time

  Julyterlab has been pinned for multiple versions now and the issue only started happening on the latest Firefox update. Still works fine in chromium

  Holy fucking shit. I swear to God, I had to download chromium because running Jupiter lab in browser ate through 22gb of ram and got my shit OOM killed. If this is what's causing it I stg. I'm not even using vanilla Firefox, but the Zen fork got tebased on v141 right before this happened
