Forgive the smelly domain.

This is a fantastic short essay by Rich Hickey.

I use Pixel on GOS but i welcome any other apps that can help achieve this.

Background: I have a smart home system that i can use my phone to lock/unlock doors, turning lights on/off...etc. This app can be accessed via house wifi and 5G.

Problem: sometimes theres a lag when the phone switches from 5G to wifi, or vice versa. This would mean that the commands are "stopped" until we have stable signals. Eg. pressing open door would not open, i have to press open door again.

I would like to setup so that this smart home app is always on 5G. The rest of the apps can run 5G or wifi..

I remember on old Galaxy phones, you can do that. But is there an app?

Hi all,

So my wife and I have been told yesterday that the return of her breast cancer is incurable and so the treatment options are all going to involve trying to keep it at bay.

As such the first thing that they will be doing is effectively switching off her ovaries and forcing an early menopause. I know barely anything about menopause, what that is going to entail for her both physically and mentally or things to expect.

Can anyone recommend any books for me to check out that can explain and help me to understand what she is about to go through with this so that I can better help support her?

The Kaaiman is an unarmored variant of the JLTV, the four-wheel-drive tactical vehicle Oshkosh designed to replace the Humvee in U.S. service, tailored to a Dutch requirement for a patrol vehicle that can operate along coastlines and in shallow water.

A stack of crates rises from the floor, holding up one child and exciting another. The boy on the crates stands silently while the other questions aloud "aren't you going to stop us from doing the milk crate challenge?"

A woman in a towel, holding a cup, passively watches the pair, slowly and deliberately takes a sip, and finally lowers her cup again, before simply replying "nope."

I'm a bit stumped, and am looking for advice. I have an extremely old (Circa 2015) Craftbot Plus. It's hardly any parts of the original unit, kept alive with custom parts out of just spite. I use cura as my slicer, and it works fine for my needs. Recently, my kids have wanted to print custom keycaps. This is a difficult FDM print to begin with, and my old hardware isn't doing me any favors; it might be impossible. That being said, my prints turn out good, except for the tiny details in the actual stem. The picture is attached of various settings; I've tried a ton of stuff. I can share a cura profile, but the gist is I'm printing in PLA and have experimented with 195-210 degrees, .1mm layer height, line widths between .175-.2mm, various speeds, minimum speed and minimum layer duration, I've disabled ironing, and I've played with retraction. I'm kind of stumped, and am wondering if anyone has things I should try.

At a rally in Youngstown, Ohio, on Monday night, Trump called WNBA player Sophie Cunningham “a beautiful young woman,” but also singled out her scoring average this season, according to People. “You probably wouldn’t mind her on the team, not to help you with points, but to help you with attendance. The attendance would be great.”

Due to changes in my living situation, I've switched from running Pi-Hole on a headless machine on my network, to running it locally on my main PC; which runs EndeavourOS.

Pi-Hole is working well; with my networking settings set to use 127.0.0.1 and ::1 to point to localhost for DNS, but I can't boot Waydroid unless I either comment out the dnsmasq lines in /usr/lib/waydroid/data/scripts/waydroid-net.sh, or stop pihole-FTL.service.

Stopping pihole-FTL.service, of course stops Pi-Hole, and commenting out those dnsmasq lines disables networking in Waydroid.

I'd like to be able to get Waydroid running with networking, and preferably get it to use Pi-Hole as its DNS resolver. I understand the reason Waydroid won't boot normally in my case is because it does some weird stuff with dnsmasq and port 53, which conflicts with Pi-Hole.

I should also mention that I'm also using ufw for a firewall, with default deny incoming and default allow outgoing set.
