You can just reset the iPad when your plane lands. Then you can restore it from backup once you are at your destination.

Can we get a TL:DW for people that don’t want to watch a video?

There are ready made modules for it that slot into an unused PCIe slot into your case. They are available on aliexpress, search for „tuya WiFi pc power switch)

„Curated list“ and „massive list“ rarely go together… this one is not curated.

As far as I understood, this is just a USB interface, you’d still need zigbee2mqtt or ZHA

But NearDrop is not compatible with airdrop, is it?

It’s only a matter of time now

/edit: there seems to be This one however it is the „old“ standard reverse engineered. Should still work

Sure, but the same is true for embedded timestamps. Just put a black bar over it with the time and date in white. Claim that the system does it that way, done.

The rommbas? Maybe. The other ones? They have plenty storage.

I would not say they cloned the design. The first breakthrough for Roborock was the S5, which had LiDAR and a map. Both was not something iRobot had at the time. iRobot simply chose to not innovate in the areas people wanted first. People didn’t like the random cleaning that the roombas did for a long time compared to the structured of almost everybody else.

Really? It can’t do no-go zones and lines without the cloud? Even the „Chinese competition“ can do that without internet.

Sure, but keep write operations on SD cards in mind.

You can also look at thin clients like the Futro s740, or the much more powerful Lenovo tiny series (like the m720q)

The German politicians laugh at these numbers… (cumex scandal is what? 30 billion?)

Well these robots run a Linux distribution as a base. So yes, sure, they will run doom just fine.

The start stop system (in any car) is not as dumb as you think. It will not stop the engine when it is cold for example. It has a lot of conditions to actually stop the engine.

Don’t worry, it is not a safety hazard. Plenty of smart people have spent countless hours to make pretty damn sure that it is safe in all thinkable circumstances

Why though? When you run multiple services on your machine, conflicts between these can cause headaches. Updating them is also often not trivial on bare metal. Let alone migrating to a newly set up machine (I suppose you could automate that with something like ansible)

What would you prefer and why? Bare metal?

Are both parties online at the same time?

Maybe something like this is a good solution: https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole

It will figure out the fastest p2p connection and send even very large files without hassle.

24“ with 1080p sucks. The pixels are clearly visible at normal viewing distance on a desk.

Depending on the dongle, that would increase power consumption. I think that is difficult in the current state, seeing that there is not much power to spare at the moment.
