  Need another Thread Border Router on your network, but a USB-serial dongle won’t work due to an inconvenient placement? Consider a standalone OTBR such as this Silvercrest Zigbee Gateway that can be converted easily thanks to the excellent rtl8196e-gateway project. https://github.com/jnilo1/rtl8196e-gateway Since Thread & Matter are frequently mixed up, beware that this will need a separate Matter Controller to connect Matter devices. #homeassistant #thread #matter

  Apple Passwords will happily loose a login and not offer any recovery option. This bug seems to revolve around the automatic merger of two logins when both have a common TLD, but distinct subdomain. Also you have to change how one of the logins is shared through iCloud. I am not interested in reproducing it. I almost lost the second factor on of the accounts. Luckily I had a Time Machine backup of the database. Debugging distributed systems is hard. But this is entirely unacceptable.
