Amazon is going to be disabling the privacy feature that processes voice commands locally on Echo devices at the end of this month. Instead, all voice commands will be sent to Amazon's cloud for processing.
I have already followed my own steps to remediate this:
1. Unplug Echo Device
2. Throw Echo Device in Trash
3. Done

@lianna It thr data isn't there, no one will bother to build an app for it either ;)
I'm the main dev of mapcomplete.org which has quite a few filters, so that is a start already
MapComplete is a platform to visualize OpenStreetMap on a specific topic and to easily contribute data back to it.mapcomplete.org
There is a version where the website is packages as app: app.mapcomplete.org . Does that work for you?

So remember how a few days ago I shared this official Starlink document that just casually mentions that they found a piece of a Starlink satellite on a farm in Saskatchewan? starlink.com/public-files/Star…
I had really convinced myself it must be some kind of chatgpt gobbledygook. But... a reliable source confirmed that this really happened.
SpaceX dropped potentially lethal debris from TWO DIFFERENT SPACECRAFT onto Saskatchewan within 6 months. And as far as I can tell, they just waltzed in and picked up the second piece without anyone official knowing about it. This is a very big problem for a lot of obvious legal reasons.
It mostly terrifies me because there are 7,000 Starlinks, and if each one leaves behind debris after demise, that's... a lot.
Just released my new app, rtl_icecast.
"A command-line application that uses RTL-SDR to receive FM radio signals and stream them to an Icecast server in MP3 format.
The main target usage for this app is to stream your local HAM FM repeater audio to your public shoutcast/icecast server with just a RTL-SDR USB-receiver and for example Raspberry Pi. It can be used to stream broadcast FM too, of course."

"Google refuses to deny it received encryption order from UK government"
The UK’s encryption-breaking order for a backdoor into iCloud isn’t a one-off.
The secret hearing happening RIGHT NOW is bigger than just Apple. If the government wins, our right to privacy and security falls.
Other services will be hit.

✨Are you still using Google Assistant instead of Gemini on your Android phone?
If so, you should know that Google will stop offering it later this year, so you'll have to switch. Gemini is also coming to cars, wearables, and other devices.

We have just brought our first cordless vacuum.
And, as usual we argued about how to set in up, it is almost the only time we argue, when we re trying to work out how to get something to work??!!
And in the end it turns out we are saying the same thing, but in different ways.
Anyway, hopefully happy vacuuming in the future.
Here it is: The first clear image of an eclipse of the Sun by the Earth, taken from the surface of the Moon.
This is what last night's lunar eclipse looked like from the Blue Ghost lander's perspective on the Moon. Amazing!
