RCS not working is new, people are saying a magical module fixes it and pay though.

I haven't setup an IPv6 network yet, but it'd have to physically traverse the packet through your router to reach the connected device still. I imagine a router would still be able to use it's firewall to drop the packet before it gets sent to the endpoint device.

10 captcha tests is a little ridiculous imo for any situation. I'd just leave the service if I saw that.

Ah. Old asp .net standard I don't think is cross platform, but core is fully supported in Linux. I mainly support these applications at my job so was kinda surprised to see someone not recommend it.

Why negative on asp.net? I'd steer more away from WordPress though TBH.

If your setup allows random udp ports from home assistant out to your network it works fine. Mines running in a kurbenetes cluster.

I used a configmap that mounts the code to patch the integration so it doesn't get overwritten. I haven't had time to troubleshoot more though I don't see why the patch would stop text to speak from working on the esphome devices. The code changed significantly and uses raw audio files now and the only thing I am changing is making the ports not random, but a range instead. The M5 stack firmware appears to be up-to-date too.

Issue on GitHub with all of this is here

I have this setup and using the esp my stack device mentioned in the article. The biggest problem with it is esphome and home assistant expect home assistant to be running in a dedicated device for this to work. The integration uses a random UDP port to communicate with the M5 stack device. I had to resort to patching the Integration to use a couple specific ports to work properly.

Unfortunately the fix didn't last long and a update to home assistant updated the integration and now the text to search response fails for esphome devices. My next plan is to try to downgrade esphome integration to the old one that was patched / working and call it a day.

There are various sleep modes and it looks like Bluetooth can be active during some of them.

Article said they were using Bluetooth and a app on play store / app store I assume the app measures the signal strength to determine the proximity to the devices. Maybe some laptops don't turn off Bluetooth in their sleep state or people just weren't putting their laptops to sleep? Could pickup tablets or phones forgotten in cars too.

I don't think so, but it was in response to some smart people developing their government website with the database stored basically in the HTML of the website if I remember correctly. A good Samaritan reported it and was basically charged with hacking the state.

The problem is they are banning a device that doesn't solve the issue at all except if you have a car from before the 90s. The tools being used for this are custom made with a much larger range. Maybe they should ban smartphones too since people are using them to detect laptops in cars to break into since they are being stupid about it.

I read of another it was the same physics but different scenario. I think it was like excess energy moves heavy carts up a hill. When energy is needed, these carts get released and their potential energy from hill and the basic idea of regenerative breaking to repurpose it's kinetic energy.
