i want to emigrate to Equestria!!! 🥺

the fact that i was paywalled trying to read this pretty much says all one needs to know about where such a sentiment could be coming from. HMMMMMMMM

not reliable, even if it should be. i’ve seen updates replace the file in a way that clears the read-only flag. same with other clever tricks like making it a symlink.

i see this as an absolute win.

you may be interested in the open-source “Home Assistant”. it’s a free home automation hub thingy that supports practically every brand and protocol out there, including Shelly. if you’re technical enough to set it up, free yourself from proprietary apps!

this is absolutely justified. my company switched from Slack (which we all largely enjoyed using) to the bundled Teams (which causes problems all day every day for everyone) solely because they were already paying for Office and Teams was free.

on the other hand, i can’t imagine how much money we’re losing from the lost productivity…
