That's why one uses an industry standard that is brand-independent,operates offline by design and does not require a central component besides a power supply.

Sounds like utopia?

This standard has been available since 1990 in its archaic form, since 2002 in its current form. It is downwards compatible and over 400 companies worldwide are part of the standard. HomeAssistant, ioBroker, openHAB,etc. all support it directly and there are multiple crossover gateways with other standards like DMX, ModBus, Dali,etc. exist. And no, it's components are not more expensive once you look at the TCO.

For fucks sake, people, use KNX.

(PS: There are even a few open-source/DIY components available)

From my understanding your colleague committed a crime under the Indecent Displays (Control) Act 1981 and you can refer the matter to the police - which I would strongly recommend as this is beyond an employee-employer relationship.

And it brings the employer into a position that the company is forced to make sure that the offender cannot reoffend against anyone (not just you). While the first offense is nothing the company can really be held liable for, anything after they have (officially) made aware they can be held liable for.

Well,what if Biden shoots Trump during a debate? If he would be immune he cannot be put to trial for it.

Bob Ross, absolutely.

And, funny enough a "colleague" of him, R.Lee Emmy - First he made sure that any ideas of going to the army went out of my head and then I saw a very very good speech of him at a time when I was in a dark place.

Tatsächlich ja. Es gibt relativ viele Studien die belegen,dass Wahlplakate die Stammwählerschaft aktivieren.

I can recommend using Cloudron but I don't use Radicale.

Cloudron is in no way a necessity for anyone - it's simply me being too lazy to keep everything up to date, read all the necessary documentation for all the services we run,etc. Cloudron does all that for me - and I couldn't be happier. Johannes,the owner, provides fast support (had two glitches with Hetzner DNS over the years) and the amount of Apps is getting wider each year, although I would rather see their range be broader (e.g. a proper Monitoring system instead of yet another project management),but that's just me.

In theory it's even possible to create your own apps for cloudron, both for public and private use, but that is beyond my capabilities. It can also be used as a SSO provider and reverse proxy,btw.

Spenderorgane werden nicht alleine transportiert sondern mit einem chirurgischen Team.

Farm vehicles are far more automated than any cars these days.

It's not about the sensors, it's about the software. That's the solution.

There are templates for that. And yes,of course it is bullshit that we have to do that.

But it's less work this way compared to installing Linux and (-the worse part-) teach it to the more technologically disadvantaged relatives who used Windows for 30 years before their retirement. Or to kids who just want to use the same stuff they use at school.

I absolutely would wish that Microsoft would stop their bullshit (it wasn't even out of the possible options for them to make AD cloud only - but a lot of government customers complained). But I wanted to show people that there is a middle ground between submitting to that fucking cloud account and ditching linux all- together.

In a family and SOHO setting there is an easy way around it,even without alternative media creating tools and Win11:

Active directory. Yeah. Microsoft. But not really.

Samba can be used as an AD server for ages now, it's free,cheap and can run on a Pi or some NAS. These days it's fairly easy to set up as long as you only use it for Identification services and basic networking. And Microsoft won't bother you with their shit ever, as they don't dare to push corporate clients too much.

I can recommend it very much. There are also full GUI distributions available,e.g. univention.

In absolute numbers the table saw will win because everyone has one. But they can be used in a safe way - with a sliding carriage, a push stick and a cover or even a saw stop(even though that is a ridiculous shitshow on my side of the pond)you have a near 0% chance of hurting yourself. That is different for a lot of other machines. They can hurt you even if you do things right but are unlucky.

Band saws are far more likely to hurt someone and old planes are inherently unsafe as their spindles often are designed in a way that they often easily send their blades towards their operators. Especially when they are older models. And of course mortisers - I saw some really really gnarly shit over the years, e.g. someone who lost control of their mortiser when hitting an knothole and then the machine went towards his groin - still running as he panicked and did squeeze the handle even stronger by reflex. In the end the half groin area was bloody pulp he injured a major vessel that nearly killed him. A friend of mine collapsed (due to a medical issue) on a table mortiser and missed the blade by less than 2cm. With a table saw he would have simply collapsed on the cover, here it was pure luck.
