Starlink is definitely at a loss right now. Despite this, Falcon 9 launch costs are significantly lower for actual customers as well, and the reuse factor cannot be ignored

That’s a tablet with a keyboard case

All I’m hearing is potential savings $$$

Haven’t been on there since the event, though I do read some threads if they come up in a search. Not intending on returning, though I haven’t gotten rid of my old account yet

Sarcasm sure, but I would say that nothing about it is subtle

Right now they’re actually doing more launches with less money and waste, but hate on I guess

For c to c cables, the devices need to be able to communicate with each other to establish which one is the host (the charger in this case). With a to c cables, the type a side is assumed to be the host by default. You’ll often find that manufacturers of cheaper devices prefer not to spend the extra money to implement this technology, though some will, and in fact allow for even more functionality. For example, one of my flashlights does have that chip, so it can both charge from a c to c cable if a charger is detected, and also automatically act as a power bank if I connect a device to it such as a mobile phone.

It’s not difficult to find though it can be expensive. I’ve been using Anker multi port type c chargers for years

But how else could companies make more money off of something you already paid for? Will someone think of the shareholders‽

Well I’m glad that you were able to get it to work again then and that it is fixed now

Going from your suggestions I was able to find a workaround to change the device’s state with just one click, so thank you for that.

For the second problem, it seems that while HA sends a command instantly, it only actually changes states on the dashboard once the device sensors update, which seems to be hard coded to happen about every 30 seconds. I am using an integration from HACS (Custom VeSync) though, so I feel like the problem is more likely to do with my own setup. Then again HA would previously just send the requested command no matter what the state was before…

Either way I’m not really familiar with Github beyond reading release notes and readmes.

Edit: Reading further into the integration I’m using, I realized that it relies on cloud polling. I wonder if there’s a way to make Home Assistant assume that a command went through, change states immediately, and then confirm the change with the next polling cycle, rather than just waiting. Unfortunately I don’t know how to implement something like this.

I do have one problem with the new humidifier cards. Some buttons got shuffled around and now turning a device off and on went from being a single click to three separate operations. Additionally, it is less reliable now, as it won’t send a turn on/off command instantly, rather only when the state of the device changes in HA. I don’t toggle them frequently, but when I do I want it to be fast. I’m sure there’s some workaround for it, but it just worked previously and now it just doesn’t.

What went wrong for you? I didn’t have any problems with the last one or this one so far (I use Z2M)

For speed records, efficiency doesn’t matter at all. Of course that’s not applicable for average buyers, but still something to keep in mind.

Out of curiosity, what sort of challenges did you have with setting up shows in jellyfin? I’ve been working with it and haven’t encountered any issues yet

The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth

Not sure exactly what you’re asking, but usually servers are built in a way that several units can be stacked on top of each other in a rack, which makes it important that air comes in from the front and exits from the back. The smaller coolers then allow you to cram more GPUs next to each other since the higher heat density won’t matter due to the airflow speed inside the case.

Wait until they find out how much water goes into meat and clothing production

The space shuttle was never meant to be ‘reusable’ but rather ‘refurbishable.’ The big difference is that Starship is designed from the ground up for rapid reusability, without manually checking each of the 24000 unique tiles of the STS orbiter.

With the stainless steel construction, SpaceX is aiming to use their new upper stage up to 3 times a day with only refueling and a basic check in between. It is a complete paradigm shift from traditional rockets.

Look at the Falcon rocket history. They started out at a very similar point, though at a smaller scale. And yet now they are comfortably human rated. They have landed the last 171 times in a row without fail, with another one coming this evening to add to that incredible number.

The guy at the helm is a terrible person, but this does not discredit the absolutely insane progress they have made.
