I hacked my garage opener remote with ESPHome to avoid this crap. Excellent automation, would recommend. Especially if you can stay away from MyQ
Do not buy Chamberlain products for your smart home. This is really simple. That company is toxic towards its users and I’m a bit surprised people went back to them.
But a Ratgdo. It almost certainly works w/ your garage, is fully local, & works brilliantly with HomeKit, ESPHome, and Home Assistant

“The American Revolution,” Ken Burns’s new docuseries, “is intelligently self-critical history of a kind most people worldwide are deprived of,” John McWhorter writes. “Showing us what the era entailed for all different kinds of early Americans isn’t woke; it’s accurate.”

As a security person, I SO appreciate great bits like this open letter around bad security advice ( www.hacklore.org/letter), especially given that it's got reputable people like @leak.bsky.social signed on.
I agree that outdated advice and half-truths are just as bad as giving wrong advice.

If we can only have art from people who "aren't in it for the money" that means we can only have art from privileged middle-class dilettantes. Making art being a viable career is responsible for nearly all worthwhile art, and if it's not a viable career any more we will get drastically less of it.
