  • login to lemmy.world travel to lemmy.ml and be able to comment.

    See, this is kind of impossible because of security reasons.

    Imagine logging in on gmail, going to facebook (without any further action in between) and being able to read your emails. That would be convenient but catastrophic!

    Yes, I know, FB and gmail are two different things, but the concept of auth is the same. A website saves a cookie in your browser and uses it to check whether you’re authenticated or not. And that website can AND SHOULD only be able to read its own cookies.












  • oh… it’s a game where every day there’s a 5 letter word you have to guess.

    you start with a random word and it shows you if the letters are in its corect place (green), wrong place (yellow) or they don’t occur at all (gray).

    then you keep on guessing until you find the word or reach the limit.








  • in a nutshell

    This is how the control and information exchange of smart devices work:

    Phone App -> [Server] … [Server] -> Smart Device and vice versa

    There’s no way around this concept.

    Now, Google gives you the phone app and the (public) server part. but these only work with their servers and apps, keeping you locked in.

    HA gives you the same, a server and an app, but allows you to keep the server private (access via vpn for public)

    Also who guarantees that Google Home will be there in the next few years? HA will still keep running even if it ever gets abandoned.

    yeah, it’s such a shame that people think X is the right place to share important updates.

    It fucking absolutely is NOT!

    Yesterday I went to look up Trakts X profile to see whether there are issues with their API. X shows posts from 2020-2023, but nothing from 2024 even though there was a tweet from 2 days ago.

    X is dead and should officially be declared as such.
