Spotify and other music streaming services are a product of the current time, which is mainly defined by the lack thereof. People would enjoy buying CDs, MP3s, taking the time to listen to albums, if that wouldn't take away the precious time our economic system demands for productivity.
Streaming services provide music as it is required in the western world: Something that is experienced passively, to numb, and to distract, not something to be actively enjoyed.

Just to be clear: :homeassistant: #HomeAssistant does not have a UI to delete timespans of (bogus/calibration) data? Unless you sift through the various tables in the sqlite db and manually delete the offending rows, those data will forever taint all of your statistics and graphs? 🤔
No easel? No problem… “Stage prop” is my 3rd middle name.

🔒 Kitten Security update
I just released a Kitten hotfix that upgrades the Kitten runtime to today’s Node 24.22.1 with a number of critical security fixes, including the eMudhra fix.

My other takeaway from #NextFest is that I'd personally like it if fewer stories were told via a 'roguelike deckbuilder'.
I mainly play games for the stories.
I like card games (esp. Netrunner, FABTCG) & I enjoy deckbuilding but I want to play against real humans, not video game AIs.
Real humans chat with you after the game, write up meme-y explanations of their decks, count how non-men entered the (Netrunner) tournament etc ... video game AIs don't
