Specifically, it’s that the doors opening mechanisms are powered, and the power was not being applied to open them. There is no exterior mechanical entry option.
Just a guy doing stuff.

For the first one, you should look into some z wave light switches; I have my house wired with them and then I setup triggers for things like “double tap this switch up to turn on the whole room” and “double tap this switch down to start a bedtime routine”
Most text transcript services are too complex to run on the tiny little processor in these devices. They would be sending audio or nothing at all
it could store the recordings and bundle them with an innocent request, encrypted even. unless you have physically looked inside the device and checked that it is incapable of doing this, you are simply trusting a company’s word.
Plenty of people have done just that; And discovered that no, Echo devices do not do that. Also audio recordings are big, so the folks who have done proper network analysis would probably have noticed such a thing.
Echo devices have two computers in them: One that only listens for the wake word and activates the second computer. A second computer that does the actual relay and processing for the voice commands.
Claiming they’re always recording is just unnecessary fearmongering
Nah, I wanna hear about bugs that have affected you that you can confirm are bugs :-)
That’s only true for the Java edition, some people play the Bedrock edition instead tho - and even then, that can still be run on Linux lol
Give examples or get out
They didn’t say Steam Deck
Running games through Proton is as simple as clicking install and then play on Steam. You might need to enable Steam Play or such but I haven’t had setup or config troubles with games in years now
Don’t you know that GUIs are super double duper against the unix philosophies of old? Mr Linux Torbald rolling in his grave just thinking of it
For the first one, try Lutris
Word of warning, loads of those are full of hidden malware that will attempt to infect the other devices on your network. Probably best to make your own every time.
I switch between this and Shutter on a regular basis depending on what I feel like using that day.
I dunno what you were using but I recommend virt-viewer.
The main thing for this one is that you’ll want to get a PCIe USB controller card and pass that through directly to the VM so that unplugs/replugs/device resets don’t connect the device to the host machine briefly while if determines if it should pass through.
In i3wm you can set a key bind to float a window above the tiling and it’ll do just that; You can even automate it with some custom for_window
rules if desired.
I’m sorry, my goal wasn’t to be a bother. My initial comment was intended to be friendly and funny - I’m not trying to patronize or be antagonistic. I learned a couple of years ago that I have autism, so I should have learned my lesson by now and stopped trying to be funny; It never pans out the way I mean for it to.
Hope I wasn’t too much of a drag on your day, and I hope it gets better for you.
With that said, a genuine question with no jokes: Can you help me understand how 2016 counts as recent, given the context? It was almost a decade ago, and I’m having trouble comprehending how it counts at all as recent since in tech “recent” usually means “in the last 2-3 years” unless you’re comparing to something from a much longer time ago like the 90s.
It was a lighthearted jab at calling 8 years ago recent; Not a political statement about Apple or operating systems.
8 years is a ton of time in tech, CPUs from 2016 are ancient. Single-core CPU performance has doubled in Intel’s laptop chips since then, and modern laptop CPUs from Intel are often 12-core, versus the top end 2016 MacBook Pro having 4 cores.
Not trying to start any fights, was just poking fun at the choice to call 2016 recent
I can read, and a 2016 MacBook pro is not even a bit recent; It’s from 8 years ago :-)
Just a bit of light-hearted leg pulling, nothing to get worked up over
I hate to break it to you friendo, but 8 year old hardware isn’t recent. It may still be usable, but that doesn’t make it recent. It’s ok though grandpa, let’s get you back to bed
It looks like it runs perfectly via WINE from a few quick Google searches
