socphoenix@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Kentucky man wakes during organ harvesting procedure, prompting federal investigation481·7 days agoThe sad thing is we desperately need people to stay organ donors if organ transplants that save lives are to stay a thing and these ethical catastrophes that should lead to mass arrests instead end with people leaving the registry and seemingly 0 consequences for the ghouls that caused the issue…
It’s not unlikely this will cause shortages for people in need that was completely preventable due to greed and capitalism.
socphoenix@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•New Executive Order Targets the Homeless and Mentally Ill4·8 days agoYeah I’d like to believe they’d get this half right and get actual professionals… but it’s Trump and he’ll just create a literal skyscraper of “the bearings will continue until morale improves” and claim it’s a new kind of mental health care or something
socphoenix@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•New Executive Order Targets the Homeless and Mentally Ill5·8 days agoOh this is definitely going to bring back the institutions of old…
socphoenix@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Missouri governor repeals paid sick leave law approved last year by voters3·22 days agoAnecdotally, it’s both. Most of the people I talked to would be very pro Republican but then talk about how they didn’t understand why we didn’t make weed legal or help people in poverty* or whatever the ballot initiative was.
*aid or minimum wage and stuff was often times very dependent on phrasing. They liked the ideas but only if they thought of people they liked. If you let them run long enough they’d eventually start talking about “druggies” or something like that to justify why $7.25 was where they’d rather leave the minimum wage for example. Or start riffing on how McDonald’s workers shouldn’t make as much as they did typing at a computer doing “real work”

socphoenix@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Missouri governor repeals paid sick leave law approved last year by voters12·22 days agoThe weirdest thing when I lived there was ANY liberal ballot measure was basically guaranteed to pass, but straight down the ticket only republicans won their elections guaranteeing this kind of outcome in the state.
socphoenix@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Singapore Workshop owner gets jail, fine for illegally modifying motorcycles' exhaust11·22 days agoSo he sold parts he wasn’t allowed to sell without a license, that he didn’t have. This outcome shouldn’t be shocking to anyone. All he had to do was wait for the license like anyone else who applied.

socphoenix@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Huge fines coming for Californians caught by drone with illegal fireworks9·27 days agoPlus it’s outside where there already is t an expectation of privacy? It’s always been legal in the US to take photos from the street/sky for evidence
socphoenix@midwest.socialto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•UFC confirms Trump's plan to host a fight at White House in 2026English3·27 days agoI think the mistake we (myself included) tend to make is assuming people have any intelligence on average.

socphoenix@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Trump trade deadlines in July 'not critical': White House4·1 month agoOf course they’re not, they were always bullshit that a toddler could see through
socphoenix@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•any advice on buying a window AC unit?3·1 month agoI’ve been told this everywhere I’ve rented with different reasons ranging from it’ll put undue stress on the sill, liability (non first floor apartment would’ve been bad if it fell out), and the current ones thought was they tend to leak water which can damage the pain and then damage the sill.
socphoenix@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•any advice on buying a window AC unit?1·1 month agoLong as the landlord isn’t regularly coming by the property for inspections then yeah fair
socphoenix@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•any advice on buying a window AC unit?3·1 month agoEven renting a house it’s in my lease I can’t use a window unit. Which sucks because our swamp cooler outputs into the living room in a way that makes it very difficult to get its air into the second bedroom.
socphoenix@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Former U.S. Space Force sergeant found guilty of murdering Colorado teenager6·1 month agoAh yes the tried and true “fuck reforming them when it’s cheaper to rejoice in their death” argument. Yup, clearly no better way to have handled this than dead kids and paying to incarcerate someone for life. Definitely no cheaper way to have helped these kids to a better life nope no sir-ee….
socphoenix@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•A plan to provide almost $300 million for Pennsylvania transit agencies passed the state House, but still faces a vote in the Senate, where it died in the past.4·1 month agoLooking at the septa lines being possibly cut it’s gonna screw over a lot of people, in areas where cars are already problematically dense. It’s gonna be a shitshow
socphoenix@midwest.socialto homeassistant@lemmy.world•Shelly Plug S Broke how do I integrate the new one without losing historic data?English1·2 months agoIt looks like the Shelly device initiates contact with home assistant you may be able to just tell it to talk to the same api endpoint (following is for 2nd gen devices):
In this case, navigate to the local IP address of your Shelly device, Settings >> Connectivity >> Outbound WebSocket and check the box Enable Outbound WebSocket, under server enter the following address:
ws:// + Home_Assistant_local_ip_address:Port + /api/shelly/ws (for example: ws://192.168.1.100:8123/api/shelly/ws), click Apply to save the settings. In case your installation is set up to use SSL encryption (HTTPS with certificate), an additional s needs to be added to the WebSocket protocol, too, so that it reads wss:// (for example: wss://192.168.1.100:8123/api/shelly/ws).
Assuming you are buying a new unit I’d try following that guide after backing up and seeing if it updates normally. The first gen devices used a different protocol, full instructions for both can be found here.
socphoenix@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Teachers Are Not OK: AI, ChatGPT, and LLMs "have absolutely blown up what I try to accomplish with my teaching."1·2 months agoThat sounds like most administrators/departments heads where I’ve worked over the years. Always looking for the way to look good with the least amount of effort.
