Do you actually look into what this document is stating? The document linked to in this article is not from the FDA, but from the group suing them for the FOIA request. This filing, and others from this group, are only allegations. This is not evidence from the FOIA process nor a statement from the FDA. Since I cannot find the original sources of these documents, I can only link to these: Docket: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21087968-txn-42021cv... Filing 1: http://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/001-Complaint-10... Filing 2: https://www.sirillp.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/020-Secon...
From what I can read, the use of Sailfish is only allowed in certain EU countries. Why is that? Their site does not address this.

I went with a IotaWatt for measuring my home energy usage. It is based on the ESP8266 and is completely opensource hardware and software. You retain control of your data or you send to an external server.

OK, good to know that I am still sane. I started reading the article, and was very confused. I think I need more coffee.

At the bottom of page 3, Patent and Copyright is covered. I am not a lawyer and it is not clear to me how this mixing of code from different groups will work from a licensing standpoint. https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/studygroups/2017-2020/16/Docume...

I don't know about IOS, but for Android, there is Android Auto by Google. It makes the UI larger and easier to use, and minimizes what you can do in the car. It will even read texts to you.

OpenWRT on the Archer C7 does not support the 5Ghz radio, FYI.

He failed to mention in his piece that he had not gone through the federal background check process, which is the 5 page document. The gun dealer still has to enter this into their computer system and wait for a response from NICS.

This could take a few minutes to a few hours, depending on how busy the system is.

The thing is that any cable company in the US and Canada that streams content to their customers via the Internet is using adaptive bitrate streaming either using HTTP Live Streaming, MPEG DASH, HTTP Dynamic Streaming, or Microsoft Smooth Streaming. It is far from impossible.
