Depends on if it's in core or not. Typically it's best to do a discussion on the repo for the integration, but if it's in core I think things are typically done different.

Everything changes as we discover new things. Just because it was different before doesn't mean things have been the same forever. It also doesn't mean things "came out of nowhere". Things have been redefined and discovered. That's part of science.

Autism has always been around - we just lumped it with other things.

"the spectrum" goes way further than that. much broader

lone dagger

To be autistic before often meant you had to fall in line with speech delays and other stronger symptoms of autism - most often only found in autistic men, not autistic women.

The changes are intentionally made to broaden that because it's broad.

It's not to pull more people in for some numbers to go up.

It's to make sure those who have been missed in the past are found now.

Yes but if yiour recorder is set to the default of only keeping 10 days the DB should not be 20GB. I started around the same time, 2018, keep 7 days of state data and have been using LTS (kept forever) extensively since they were introduced. I do have an extensive list of DB excludes though.

Okay, I don't know where else to ask this, I'm kind of stuck.

I have installed and set up valetudo on my robot vacuum, and have it hooked up through home assistant. I was trying to figure out how to get rooms passed through to Google Home, so then I could tell Google to clean a specific room, and valetudo would go and clean it.

I joined the valetudo telegram, and asked said question. I've tried to find information about this, and I couldn't find anything.

For some reason, after asking said simple question, I am now permanently banned from both the valetudo telegram, and their GitHub.

#

I swear, I've never gotten banned from anywhere else before. I have no idea why I was banned, I was very careful to ask the question correctly. I even read the "how to ask a question" page to make sure that I phrased it correctly.

#

I work in IT and computers, I research and mess with stuff like this all the time, I was just asking for a little bit of help.

#

If anyone is on the Valetudo Telegram, can you send a screenshot of what happened in that part of the conversation? I just want to know why I was banned.

In what Jones termed "revolutionary suicide", Jones and the members of his inner circle planned and orchestrated a mass murder-suicide in his remote jungle commune at Jonestown, Guyana,...

the new norm of size of tv's people have in thier homes anymore is insane

One of the discords I'm on has a rule to disable notifications for any reply

I grew up with 24" being big and 32" was just enourmous

peak slate
#

So I know to keep in their rules

forest edge
#

well 85" is apparently moved in or moving in to the new norml

#

There may be a markdown/format thing that'll do that to

#

was 55

I don't know discord formatting well though

#

I want their house if 85in is normal

forest edge
#

you can buy them for under 500 now so people are certianly gobbling them up

when I bought my hisense 65" I thought hisense was trash but the reviews online kept raving about it. while I did have some issues (mostly with sound) the picture is actually really good

#

I had a soundbar with my older 55" samsung but the subwoofer died and I really didn't want to deal with that again

#

I don't mind not having deep bass

#

it does dolby audio, however that works

#

so it's not like it's just stereo

Hamilton convinced me to upgrade my center channel a few years ago 🙂
