Been trying to chase through normal support, but getting answers that point me at the help docs I've read, checked, etc. Sent screenshots even. Seriously, just want to be able to play Uno with my kid remotely, and can't and there's no good answers here. Help?.

@chamberlain should be working with @home_assistant to be a first class integration, not blocking them. A walled garden stagnates and dies, this has been proven time and again, and MyQ in this case will be no different. I encourage them to change course on these choices.

I'm particularly disappointed in @chamberlain 's choice to, under the guise of 'security', block legitimate users' access to their myq garage door openers via the APIs that @home_assistant and other open source solutions use. They've, effectively, rendered my devices e-waste.

Hey @SceptreDisplay when are you getting +60in non-smart TVs back in stock? I keep pondering an upgrade but you keep not having TVs :'(.

Hey @opnsense are you open to more mirrors? There's been a minor request to mirror you into the #MicroMirror FCIX project, and trying to figure out what your process is there.

In light of some, ahem, fairly significant news in the general Linux distro world, it's probably worth a reminder about what community is:. Community is, and always has been, the people.

Tried to reach out to @UPS to try and get a better handle on a package that doesn't look like it's going to show up before I fly out, and at least here on Twitter their DMs seem to be just pre-canned bot interactions, with no way to actually ask a human. Can't say that's great. .

Hey @realremine how can I submit a request to remove information from a property I own? Your ticket submission system requires fields that I absolutely don't have, and I'd like to remove that information that's both wrong and outdated because I don't want to be contacted.

Getting the word around: is no longer an accepted e-mail service with respect to Vger. Combination of blow back due to utterly miss-configured forwarding onwards (usually due to individual users not the service as a whole) and low acceptance limits.

Where this gets into "I shouldn't have to say this" is don't use an e-mail forwarderer with mailing list, just don't. It complicates things a lot in ways that are REALLY not obvious either to the sender or the receiver and it's going to be prone to breakage. 2/2.

I feel like I shouldn't have to say this but heads up to folks using with Vger: they are actively blocking our delivery, so I'm unsubscribing folks and trying to let them know. 1/2.

Hey @DisneyPlus seriously unimpressed with you now requiring birth dates and genders (even 'choose not to share) being associated to profiles. You claim it's for customization, but it's seriously just random data overreach and shouldn't be required *AT BEST*.

This can cause it to just sit there and spin. Found this when my weather station kept just wandering off and stop talking to anything when the AP would firmware update or reboot, you know events that shouldn't be a huge deal. Solution: revert to simple, trap the error myself.

So turns out that if you are using micropython and umqtt.robust it try/except catches the error before passing it back up. If something goes wonky it just repeatedly pounds on trying to perform that mqtt action but never really lets anyone above it know.

While it's still up: there was a way to convert your backed up twitter data to something more than just a single html page, does anywhere know where that script was?.
