@caseyliss Their biggest design mistake for me was eliminating the page forward/page back buttons. They were perfectly placed to rest my thumb on page forward and never have to move it to turn pages. I'm still using my 5 year old Oasis and will until it bites the dust. When it does, I'll be looking at Kindle alternatives unless they've brought back a model with buttons.
#atpfm I'm looking at a iPhone 16 Pro. Whats the State of the Cases? Particularly how they handle the camera button. Now that you've had time to test drive your favorite choices, does one stand out?
@caseyliss Since you're now a Home Assistant zealot, you should look into ESPHome for your notifications project. Tight integration with Home Assistant and runs on several boards including ESP32. Remarkable flexibility and sure to send you down new rabbit holes after you solve your 3 LED project.

It's become hard to follow Covid levels, and I've got a bunch of travel coming up over the next few months (NC, LA, MA, and MO), so I put together this bot that publishes state-by-state Covid levels, as tracked in wastewater. It posts once weekly, Saturday, which is when the CDC updates their numbers.

I basically just made this for me, but perhaps others might find it useful.

@hotdogsladies He has a whole episode mostly about you, if you haven't gotten there yet or weren't told. Love John's work.
@drdrang
How is the weight, portability and handling on the water? Sounds like fun.
Did you know that Preview in MacOS can remove background from images? Keyboard shortcut CMD+Shift+K
@drdrang It is our time to give to you. No response needed
@drdrang So sorry for you to lose her. I can't imagine losing my wife. Hoping all those around you give you the support so important right now. We don't know each other but you are in my thoughts.
