Hey folks! I'm searching for places in or around Philly to explore abandoned buildings, old structures, liminal spaces, etc. If there's any cool places you've come across, please let me know!

I'm right handed, but I keep my phone in my left pocket since I like to be able to pull out my phone to check the map or msgs while using my primary hand for another activity.

When texting, I usually use both hands but certainly can type with just my left hand.

Where do you keep your phone & why?

Mine is the Redding terminal market & the Chinese lantern festival, but would love to hear yours!

I just switched over from Gmail, but I find myself missing Google's default email filters for "promotions", "forums", "social" and the like.

What have you all done to replicate this?

I have 4 RGB+C+W zigbee bulbs like this one:

However after adding it to home assistant, they only show up as c+w bulbs:

What am I doing wrong? How can I get it to detect it as RGB+C+W?

Hey, I have two laptops & I'd like to get a triple monitor docking station that supports both of them, they are:

MacBook Pro - M3 Max - MacOS Lenovo X1 Carbon - 6th generation - Fedora 41

I got this dock: https://a.co/d/1vaXV11 and have been able to get it working with the MacBook, but my attempts to get it working with the X1 Carbon have been unsuccessful.

I can still return the dock if there are other suggestions? Thanks in advance

Pardon a WLED question in the Home Assistant community, but I was unable to find a WLED community in the fediverse.

Regardless, I have this 720 LED/meter FCOB strip, which is 24v strip & I'm trying to figure out what to configure the "LED voltage (Max. current for a single LED):"

Since it's a 20IC per meter & they claim 21watts per meter that comes out to ~1w per IC. But I'm unsure how that converts to mA like WLED is asking for.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🤠

Link to the post I'm not sure what causes this, when downloading the image, there isn't these empty spaces.

There are some people I talk to on multiple platforms & it would be incredibly useful if I could see all of these conversations in one place.

I understand this isn't trivial but this is how I would expect it to function:

• New UI element that the send button includes a drop down to select which platform you want to message this person on.
• Default response is configurable per conversation and can be set to "respond on their most recent platform"
• If you reply in a thread, it always uses the platform that thread is from

I understand this is a non trivial amount of work to implement but it would be so incredibly handy! Thanks for reading.

I'm moving into a new apt and the ISP is trying to rent a router at $20/mo, so I'd like to get my own router.

I'm considering setting up opnsense for the router & TP link Omega for the AP & Switch.

But this feels a bit overkill for an apt. Should I just get a all in one router instead? What are the pros and cons?

Basically, what the title says ~ is anyone having issue with beeper right now?

Update: Seems to be working again now 🤷

Hey, I'm moving to Orlando soon and am interested in advocating for public transit in my community. I was wondering if there are any existing organizations with this goal which I could support?
