Citizens?

Canada public safety recommends 72 hours of self sufficiency.

My in-laws live remote/rural, so they’re closer to 5 days.

Being ready for the apocalypse is a little strange. Being ready for a snowstorm/flood/bridge collapse is normal.

That would work for my use case too.

“No one home, but you left the door unlocked. Dummy”

I would buy a smart lock that has a locking, but no unlocking, function.

I’ve definitely forgotten to lock door(s) chasing after a toddler, something that would allow the locks to automatically lock behind me would be great.

Swap windows home server for server on the last page and you’re done.

Until your kid is 7/8, then you need to explain why one server isn’t enough and you need a second server somewhere else for the same reasons it shows a server being important when the computer gets pee on it.

The S in IoT stands for security

Ahh, but most of the time I just let the washer run normally. Hence the need for a button not just an automatic start at X times.

This looks perfect. Thank you!

Why a smart relay instead of the smart plug?

Yeah, my 4am is so they can go in the dryer in the morning, 3pm is so they can go in the dryer after work.

I get it, it was part of the fun for me.

But now I’ve got about 60 minutes per day to myself where I am not working or keeping a toddler from killing themselves. I’m using that time to play video games; not hoping I can stumble upon my delicious niche of death/power/trash metal that I’ll listen to for 10-15 hours a week

I like Spotify for music discovery (I don’t have the time to discover music on my own). $42 CAD per year for premium is worth it for me.

I’m already running an ARR stack, so there would only be about 10 minutes of effort if I ever change my mind and add Lidarr.

Time to migtrate my NAX over to my HAOS system!!!

Thanks so much.

This is huge!!!

Has anyone else made this work with home assistant yet? I’d love a guide, and if it doesn’t exist yet; hopefully I’ll have one by the end of the week.

I track my bikes and ebikes on lubelogger. It’s not an optimal solution, but it tracks everything I need it too.

There’s a backup button in the settings that creates a .db file.

If it’s an error code I’ve worked around before, apply same troubleshooting.

If its a new errror code, search the error code to see how other people solved it.

If no one else has solved the error code, try analogous troubleshooting, post results online with the error code name, successful or not.

I’d recommend migrating one service at a time (install, migrate, shake down; next service).

Either prioritize what you want declouded the most, or start with the smallest migration and snowball bigger.

who has evet said, "I wish i had less pizza to eat :)

I have said it before. But usually after eating way too much pizza.

I haven’t personally used it, but a buddy likes it.
