@atzanteol @aubeynarf Clarification here There are ZigBee thermostats that are integrated sensors and switches where you can control the switch, read the sensor and control the set point both on the device and via ZigBee so they are controllable locally in two senses - on the device and with the home. There are proprietary Smart thermostats that may be local on the device but rely on external servers for any off device control. then there are Proprietary thermostats that are totally dependent on an internet connection to do anything - Its important to check

@callcc Would love to ...cant wait for a true highspeed #paris - #barcelona or #paris - #madrid service. With better #crossborderrail we might even get to sit next to each other. #europeansleeper might even get us in the same bed. Imagine #London to Barcelona overnight. Id probably almost never sleep at home

I can report that our test of Briar worked perfectly.. (Except it was accidentally called Brian at some point.. ) I can see that sticking. - Our test was somewhat short circuited by #Ryanair's decision to actually seat us together in an #exitrow for once. #extralegroom baby!

@Gayhitler For some flights i request a lap belt and ask to sit on his neighbours lap for the duration.

@Gayhitler Oh yeah .. we also considered both sign language and private jets but the couldn't agree on what type of either.

Of course #briar I knew I downloaded that for a reason.

Bluetooth chat app for flights (friendica.ginestes.es)

- Im looking for a chat app that I can use with others mid flight. Ideally id be able to send them the apk to install while in flightmode (with Bluetooth) - Yes we are too cheap to pay for seats together. But in our defence we fly alot.

@Evkob Cheers! I think Im going to load up on Spanish Apps. I like #eroski - They are a coop.

@merde I looked more . I don't think you can - community.e.foundation/t/auror… - So Google App Store uses the region of the Google Account (which can only be one region and is determined by Google not me)

28

Of course I prefer to use #Fdroid but for some apps I would love to be able to access a few apps that for silly reasons have been restricted to Google Account in other regions. (I Travel often)
Is it possible to use #aurorastore to access these apps? If so - how?

@donuts
I saw #pinry - github.com/pinry/pinry/ - Haven't tried it - can't vouch for it .. but is that what you are looking for?

@AlternateRoute

@blind3rdeye

The issue is at the same time as making editorial and commercial decisions about what context is shown to people they rely on legal protections based on the fact they are a common carrier rather than having a degree of editorial control.

@TheGrandNagus

@fne8w2ah @technology
The important thing here is this avoids what happened with (and sorry i have to mention this ) #wordpress where one guy personally ran the org that guided the development of the software and then created dependencies on a central site he personally owns to control updates and access to plugins
Ownership of #trademark terms are important and open structures for things like.joinmastodon.org is as well

Im interested if people are finding anything witha similar form factor to Alexa Shows or Lenovo smart clocks that can run Linux ?

Im particularly interested in something with a decent speaker, integrated camera and display. Ideally 12v DC or POE powered.

I'm also looking for self hosted apps with pushtotalk or Dropin features.

I know I could probably cobble something together but ideally something well formed but would be cool.

What are people's thoughts / suggestions?

@nevodavid @jawa21 Hopefully it will be fixed soon. I'm keen to spin up an instance and try it out.
