You may be able to just remove the microphone. Otherwise you can use a dummy load matching the expected impedance. Either you have to measure the component or look for a part number.
Don’t really understand what you’re referring to about the Bluetooth chip. The wireless communication should not be affected by removing the microphone.
Unsolder and replace with a dummy load. If the device requires an app from the manufacturer, uninstall it and throw the lamps away.
Is it really preinstalled on all phones? Not on iphones and neither on my Samsung S22 or my Pixels.
In what sense? It’s encryption is based on that of Signal. Are you referring to metadata? I also avoid whatsapp, but not because of the encryption.

As a physician in the field I find your use of psychosis incredibly sloppy. Usage of LLM: s as possible causative etiology of psychosis is not supported in the literature.
I don’t know if you have any knowledge in psychiatry, but I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt. As a clinician I can say that people presenting with psychosis in the psyciatric emergency department increasingly mention AI. This is especially true for paranoid manifestations (schizophrenic amphetamine-induced psychosis). Increasingly the patients have interacted with LLM:s and/or incorporated them into their (deeply flawed) model of reality. This is not to say the use LLM is the driving (causative) factor. Rather, the symptoms of the paranoid psychotic state is influenced by the patients interaction with the environment.
As an example the subjects that play major roles in paranoid psychosis has varied through my career. I practice in Sweden and SÄPO (Swedish Security Service) and MUST (Military Intelligence and Security Service) are common themes in psychotic models of reality. A year ago Putin and Russia was common. Before that covid was common. None of these are driving factors. They are just common themes in society in general and also meet the criteria of excellent basis for paranoid and persecutory delusions. This is the connection between LLM:s and psychosis, just a result of AI getting a lot of attention in general and easily fits a world view of a paranoid psycotic.
I definetly take things too far in terms of my effort vs my current threat model. But there are many aspects of trying to increase privacy.
For one, I’m very interested in the philosophy, ethics and politics of privacy and adjacent fields such as security. Part of what I do is just learning.
Also I try to be a good role model to my AFK peers and family. Of course I don’t try to get everyone to adopt my hobby. But as in every field it’s hard to teach even the basic stuff to others without deeper understanding of the field.
Very different tool. Magic-wormhole is dead simple, works over CLI and requires no setup. It’s not dependant on computers being within the same LAN. I wouldn’t use it with non-technical people. For users with some skill Rymdport is an option for them to interface with magic-wormhole. The tool is great for transferring secrets when setting up computers for example.
I would say Rymdport (https://github.com/Jacalz/rymdport). It’s a GUI for the magic-wormhole tool (another recommendation in itself). It let’s you easily and safely transfer files to another computer.

What do you think the obvious use case of the device ia then? It runs Linux, has pogo-ecpansion and is obviously niché as is. I would argue that it’s a device developed by Linux users/developers for Linux users/developers. In this case an Ethernet post is on brand as you said yourself. No matter if you think it’s “out of touch” or not, whatever you mean by that.
How can this possibly present a problem? People with specific needs developing new hardware - seems like a great idea to me. I can definetly see a use for this sort of device for network people. It could function as a travel router when needed. Another more obacure use could be penetration testing. Just because you can’t imagine a use case doesn’t mean it’s useless.
It’s always hard to describe the use case in enough detail without being so boring that other people will read to the end ;)
Didn’t know about the companion app being able to detect BLE beacons. I have never heard about a beavon coming to life if outside set twmperature range. If such a product were to exist it would be great.
Nice unit! As per the specifications it operates in the interval 0-40 °C only though. A bit to narrow for my use case but maybe it will work outside that range too? I have some Shelly relays in my walls and a some plugs but no mobile units. Can it be used away from home and report back home?
I use the same sensor but flashed to use ZigBee. I have loads of them at home and they work great.
I think I will buy some more and use them with Bluetooth along with https://github.com/theengs/app
Hi and thanks for the imput. I’ve already found nightscout/xdrip and delved into creating a monitoring system for my son to use in the future.
The spare insulin is not really for filling pump reaervoirs, but rather in case of pump malfunction. In Sweden T1D:s always carry spare insulin together with manual injectors.
The concern is primarily low temperatures and frozen insulin when me and my wife work and my son is in kindergarten.
Thanks for the answer! I’ve yet to experience ruined insulin due to thermal conditions. My son recently debuted but will soon go back to kindergarten and they will need to handle the medication during the day. Both me and my wife are medical doctors but the staff at kindergarten are not well experienced with medicine and may accidentally leave it outside for too long.
In Sweden where I live the medication and equipment is free so that’s not the reason to watch the temperature. Looking outside my window right now there’s snow everywhere and -19 °C. In the maternal line of my son T1D is common and frozen insulin is not too uncommon, heat damage not a problem.
I realize this is not of great concert but I’d like the challenge of creating a monitoring system.
I think this would work! Maybe I won’t be able to have the same entity for the MQTT entity and the measurements captured via the Bluetooth proxies at home though. Many thanks
I use this combo. It’s the best I’ve found apart from not so intuitive authentication.
