When its about taking a shower, the gym (you may can take a free lesson or pay for a single session), the swimming pool/spa and even truck stops have showers. Also it can be a topic to talk about and maybe she invites you over.

I kinda worded it wrong. Some ISPs do give out full IPv4 addresses but do rotate them, because they can and do charge more for static IPs. This doesn't have something to do with a lack of v4 addresses. Only DSlite has something to do with the lack of v4 addresses.

IP Bans are usually pointless. Not all ISPs give a connection a static IP or even solely an IP (DSlite). The reason is they don't want private people hosting stuff and generating more traffic and they can charge you more. My ISP (Vodafone Cable in Germany) didn't even gave me an IPv4 to use (it's called DSlite/Dual stack lite), meaning I was behind a NAT on their end and many shared that IP. I did ask them nicely if I could get a real IPv4 for certain stuff and they gave it to me, but only when I book the upload boost for 5€ + a month. It's not static but it only changes when my router is disconnected for a long time (I don't know the exact time but at least several hours up to an day).

So usually an IP ban makes only sense for a limited time or specific ranges from companies (for example VPNs or hosting services that don't care who books their service).

Yes, they are different. I thing your "IKEA pairing" would be touchlink paring. I would say connecting the device through the controller offers the most flexibility. When you use Zigbee2MQTT, you can take a look at https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/supported-devices/ what your device exposes. Sometimes you could loose a feature. For example the "VINDSTYRKA air quality and humidity sensor" can be connected directly to the STARKVIND air purifier, so it uses its value for the air quality. I never tried if I could connect it both ways.

On the other hand there is my Paulmann RGB remote control. I could connect the remote directly to lamps. I decided to do the automatons via HA and it has 116 different actions. Obviously its quite the task to do the automations, especially how I need to access the values.

But to not frighten you, its not always complicated. I have a few buttons and they aren't complicated. Connect through Z2M, press every button in each variation (single, double click, hold), add the automation and then what happens.

You can make it more complicated (and fun). My hue dimmer switch could have 5 scenes via the hue hub but not via HA and Z2M. With Node-Red I programmed a small logic, that just counts how often I pressed the on button, within a certain time limit. It then cycles through my selected scenes. I can add as little and as much as I like. Oh and to clarify: Node-Red can be added as Addon to HA. It allows node bases programming. I find it easier then HA Automation, because it looks visually clearer. Also its way cooler, because it has more options.

My passiv cooled Pi5 (case as radiator) with HA is at 44°C (room is at 33°C). Idk how hot it gets on a regular basis, I just enabled the system monitor integration right now.

I mean with CPU temps, thermal throttling starts usually at 80°C, so nothing to worry.

Doesn't work Invalid parameter --. I have zero clue where it gets the --. But the issue would be new devices or other ports. I did this manually once, needed to unplug my PC and needed to do this once again. At least there seems to be an option doing this in bulk but it's not optimal.

You can configure it. Whats worse, my current PC actually allows every device to wake up my PC. My old PC didn't allowed it and only allowed the power button and WoL. You can turn it off for each device (there is no bulk option, thanks MS), but when you plug in a new device... Recently I forgot to unplug my mouse from charging and my PC started right away.

I have no problem that there is this option. Might be handy in the right situation. I have a problem that you can't configure it easily. But I guess hibernation is something that Devs forget these days. I have a few programs that don't play along nicely.

Here people even "steal" books from public bookcases and sell them.

For people who aren't familiar, let me explain: These public bookcases are a weatherproof shelf, old phone booth or something in the streets. The concept is you can take any book and leave any book. There are no written rules and you can keep a book if you like or just read it and put it back. In recent years people started to scan the barcodes and checked what books they can sell. There is a debate going on if people should mark these books or not, so they can't be sold.

Wenn man noch in der Gewährleistung ist (nicht Garantie!), dann auch diese explizit inanspruch nehmen. Der Unterschied ist bei einer Gewährleistung muss sich der Händler drum kümmern (Austausch oder reperatur).

Images are just bytes. Just encode an image via base64 and now you can send it via text. People will find ways.

Füg deiner Suchanfrage mal "before:2023" hinzu, oder ein anderes Jahr. Was ich auch gerne nutze ist "site:example.org" (natürlich eine richtige URL), wenn ich die Vermutung habe, eine Seite könnte Infos dazu haben.

I use Control Panel for YouTube. Has a lot of features. Don't know how trustworthy it is. It has only 11k Users and 49 ratings on Firefox but I use it for some time now. YouTube rolled that out for me for weeks and when I got it, I didn't found a script to add to uBlock or so, when I got this bs.
