One issue you'll run into is that HA can't stream music over Bluetooth (or couldn't a few months ago), so you will have to go with a wifi speaker or preamp, or a separate server to stream the audio to a Bluetooth speaker. Or find a python package that you can incorporate into HA through the app daemon add on, or a docker image to run as an add on.

You can probably use HA to do the voice processing and send the command to the streaming server, but I haven't played with the voice feature enough to tell you how much of a pita it would be to set it up to reliably be able to decipher a band, album, or song from a voice command. I do know that it's a hassle to do it in rhasspy (you have to specify each option, iirc).

Once you do get it set up, you can probably set up a custom media player entity to control playback.

I've been checking on native HA Bluetooth streaming on a regular basis, because I want to design a whole home audio system that will follow me from room to room.

On the first point, it largely depends on the state the divorce happens in. States have differing definitions of what's considered common property. In some states only joint accounts are subject to asset splitting.

Siphoning your money into a secret account before a divorce is a great way to lose all of that money and possibly face criminal charges. But, it depends on the state, really.

This is definitely a good thing. Cops on the clock should have no expectations of privacy when interacting with the public. All body cam footage should be readily available for the public to view.

I do think they should have gone with a FedRAMP certified provider, though.

You actually landed on the truth there. He is demented, because he clearly has advanced dementia, probably exasperated by decades of amphetamine abuse.

If you listen to interviews with him from the early 2000s, he's still a pompous asshole, but he could speak in coherent thoughts.

Yeah, the chicken plants near us are offering like $20/h and $5k signing bonuses because the job is so shitty and no one wants to work in those conditions.

And this is in an area where $20/h puts you solidly in the middle class.

Why not link the actual artist's website so they can get some revenue? Plus, there's usually a hidden panel for his comics.

Yup, properly cooked veggies are awesome.

But, children's taste buds are different from adults. Iirc they taste things more strongly, so the bitter notes are more pronounced.

Also, they've been breeding stuff like brussel sprouts to be less bitter for a while now, so veggies might actually taste better than when we were kids.

Doesn't Finland not exist?

Well, cops in the UK are required to have extensive education and training, so it wouldn't be surprising for them to be intelligent enough to make that decision. It's not like the US where being smart disqualifies you from being a cop.

You're highly overestimating the intelligence requirements to become a professor.

Also, being well informed on a specific topic doesn't mean you're smart. My HS valedictorian is the dumbest person I've ever met. But, she was able to regurgitate information on tests without actually understanding any of it.

They did, I didn't see the update because /r/technology became a Musk news fees.
