I live in the UK, and seeing air conditioning in a house is maybe like a 5% probability maximum. The story is pretty similar in places on the continent I have seen, except maybe bits of Spain and France. Sure, commercial buildings, trains (with a notable exception being hell the Central Line), and cars have AC, but that's only for when you go out in the day, except for hotels that more often have AC.
Yes, this exactly! This works especially well if you have temperature sensors in your house, since then you can know when exactly to open and close based on the difference between internal and external temperatures (or at least that's what I say to myself to justify my Home Assistant setup). Extra effective if you put a fan in the window during the cooler night.
From what I've seen with Nintendo stuff at least, Australia tends to get lumped in with European/UK English releases most of the time (for region locks, game version differences, localisation, etc.). As far as I know, it's because a lot of the standards for broadcasting and other media items historically were pretty close to the UK (e.g. PAL video formats), meaning everything was set up for European versions to come to Australia.
It's finally happening! It's been 15 years (okay maybe more like 6 months).
Strange thing I noticed though, no Europe pre orders for the Joker Pack (the deluxe edition with Aces at War and vinyl records) just yet. Hopefully it comes up soon.
EDIT: It's become available for pre order in Europe now here. Pricey, but I'm going for it anyway.
Over here in the UK it's a redirect over to the main 999 line, same for when you dial the European number 112. Very good to have, probably a lot of calls went through that wouldn't have otherwise.
From my experience trying to find retrofit displays for my ThinkPad P14s Gen 5, there's two routes Framework probably could go down for this.
An OLED would be the best display option, and is somewhat more available. However, it requires extra voltage circuitry in order to work compared to an LCD, so there would probably need to be a mainboard revision to accommodate this, making it quite unlikely as it locks out users of existing systems (Unless they have some sort of adapter? No idea how that would work but maybe something could be done).
Alternatively, I have seen that there are Mini LED displays with the same connector (40 pin 4 lane eDP) and voltages that can work as a direct replacement, although without the per pixel backlight advantage of OLED. However there appears to be very few panels available in this configuration, probably raising the price a bit, especially since I can't find any in the 13.5 inch size of the Framework 13. Considering this Pro version has a custom manufactured display though, they could probably source one eventually and sell it as an upgrade.
This is quite an impressive launch from Framework. Even with the high RAM and storage prices, it is still cost competitive with an equivalent MacBook Pro (my yardstick for mid-high end laptops), but with a fully open design you can run Linux on without any virtual machines, and with (claimed) nearly equal battery life. I am somewhat disappointed though by that display, in my opinion touch is not as worthwhile compared to a display with local dimming (OLED/Mini LED).
For some reason Lemmy is weirdly buggy when it comes to animated WEBP files, so you may need to click on the image or otherwise access the image URL, since then the browser can render it correctly.
Seems I was off the mark, as TrueNAS does things differently than pure Docker. According to this thread you need a bridge network and/or to convert Home Assistant to a TrueNAS custom app to get the host mode checkbox.
Since you are running Docker, it's most likely Home Assistant's auto discover being blocked by a firewall or port settings or something else along those lines. Make sure the container's network mode is set to host, and then you have one of two options. You can either manually add the bulbs (not familiar with LIFX but I think it is done by IP address in the "add integrations" part of the devices menu) or find what is blocking the auto discovery so it will find the bulbs and other devices automatically.
Great minds think alike, already watch them. My hand nearly hit my head at supersonic speed when I found out the super advanced NSMB Wii copy protection ended up being broken before release.
To the best of my knowledge, most of the CD rippers back in the day used the Fraunhofer codec or in the case of iTunes its own encoder, so I guess this only really became an issue once FLAC sources became somewhat commonplace. In addition, the encoders used on a decent number of music download sites (most notably Sony's Mora) seem to work fine on the 3DS, bar the long loading time with the images, so I guess Nintendo never felt the need to make it work with other encoders. Knowing them though, there's probably some horrible spaghetti code behind the scenes causing this.
When can I move in? /s
but seriously that's my ideal temperature year round, much to the chagrin of anyone else when I get a hotel room with AC

Look, hear me out on Engage-
The Death Knight having a Hello Kitty pencil case is just so fitting (if you know what spoiler I am alluding to).

The US title is way cooler than the European one I played, StreetPass Battle doesn't have the same ring to it.

I am saving this immediately

Most likely this is that "ACE COMBAT ONLINE" title that was found on SteamDB - I wonder if it will get its own story line or progression?
To infinity and beyond! /s
Seems I was off the mark, as TrueNAS does things differently than pure Docker. According to this thread you need a bridge network and/or to convert Home Assistant to a TrueNAS custom app to get the host mode checkbox.
From my searching, there should be a checkbox called "Host Network" that you can tick in order to put the container into host networking mode.
Since you are running Docker, it's most likely Home Assistant's auto discover being blocked by a firewall or port settings or something else along those lines. Make sure the container's network mode is set to host, and then you have one of two options. You can either manually add the bulbs (not familiar with LIFX but I think it is done by IP address in the "add integrations" part of the devices menu) or find what is blocking the auto discovery so it will find the bulbs and other devices automatically.
Unfortunately having the whole menu doesn't mean you actually get to order off there.
