This one got a chuckle

Moon gains a trigger and matching conditions. You can start an automation the moment the moon enters a new phase, or check the current phase as part of a bigger automation. Point it at the full moon, the new moon, or any change of phase, and let your home take it from there, whether that is mood lighting, a reminder, or just a bit of fun. 🌙

I mean, that’s okay? Just thought it was funny. A fish picking stocks outperforming Wallsteetbets

I was responding to his TV mention.

Yep, mine has never reached the internet, it is connected but is blocked at the firewall so I can still hook home assistant up to it.

This here. Another thing to do is if you are taking video of family moments, narrate in the background what’s been going on for the past few days or a week. It adds additional context that is invaluable and would most likely be lost to even the person filming.

Thank you, this is exactly what this setting is there for.

This here. On top of what he said above I would mention that you want this to be as easy to maintain as possible so using Nabu Casa’s Alexa cloud integration saves you the hassle of having to do some complicated setup.

Years ago I went through the steps to do the google project/workspace tutorial to setup integrating with google home and it was a pain, especially getting it to allow google devices to talk locally. If it blows up and requires setting up again with the same complications I’ll either swap to the cloud thing(already pay the Nabu Casa sub to support them) or just move to running voice locally.

I’ve been messing with running local voice satellites the past couple months and they are way better than I thought they’d be. Been running an HA VPE in my office and has been so good I’ve removed the google home from that room. This past weekend I used this project to return an old shield tablet into a display satellite. Has a few things to left to iron out but I’m liking it.

All that to say, I’d never do all that work in a location I don’t live in😂. Pay the sub and live your life.

I love that they schedule all the games based on cartoons on Saturday morning. DIG A HOLE!

Same make and model is fine, but you do want to make sure they are from different batches if you can. Reduces the chances of multiple drive failure occurring at the same time.

At first I thought she had two and half legs on the second panel 😂 the lighting made me think she had a stump.
