I use Honeywell Evohome which controls both the rooms via TRV and the boiler via standard thermostat control. Either on/off in the case of no open therm or on off and temperature modulation in the case of open therm (which I upgraded my boiler to when it broke). It works very well and has good homeassistant integration including a local one.

More please.

How do you know you can build something cheaper when you don’t know the price?

I’m so triggered.

What if you give it correctly but you aren’t at home? We have had a lot of false alarms from failing sensors or curtains blowing in the wind, etc.

Also I don’t trust that the police would respond to such an alarm in a timely manner.

First of all, those monitoring companies (at least where I live), send their own person, not the police. Maybe they call the police if they see that a break in is happening but first they check it out themselves first.

So really you’d have to send yourself a notification (on iOS they have the emergency ones that always go through and loudly ring on your phone). Then you’d have to check it out yourself.

Calling the police automatically every time sounds like a bad idea and I don’t have trust they’d come in a timely manner if at all. At least with my system it would have been like 50 false alarms and no real alarms to the police over the last 15 years.

Cantonese speaking dog is the obvious choice. Far more impressive than anything else here.

What are the 8 materials?

Same deal but you sell to other investors.

Well yes you’d need to go country by country to truly make an analysis. Maybe I’m talking more about enforcement than actual law, but as someone who has lived half his life on each continent, it’s much easier to get away with copyright infringement on the personal level in Europe.

Copyright is arguably stronger in the USA, but there’s a simple solution: just allow these companies to break the law.

Hard to miss unfortunately.

How does it stack up in benchmarks is the question.

Yes. It is at once both a blessing and a curse.

I live in Prague and work every day in the center.

By far the worst are the Brits who get fall down drunk and try to start fights. Americans are only annoying in that they talk loudly and are often kind of dumb. But they are generally polite. They don’t hold a candle to the Brits. The rest are generally mild enough as to not be noticeable unless they are in a big group blocking the sidewalk which can be any nationality.

I had a zit like that once.

Mine were already off.

Is Firefox’s claimed Anti fingerprinting technology any good?
