@jorisroovers @home_assistant 👍👍👍

Doing completely custom cards for @home_assistant that work specific for your needs is so much fun!

I've let my 7 y.o. daughter go wild with wled and music assistant.

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

@home_assistant Damn, no London this time?

@BeardedTinker I take it the speaker is slightly better than Voice PE? How about mics?

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

Can you spot it?

Built a simple vacuum areas card to solve a real problem and boost WAF. My wife refused to use the native app, she just wanted to tap the rooms she wanted cleaned and see live maps of both vacuums. So that’s exactly what this card does.

@jorisroovers @home_assistant Yeah. The question is no longer "how" but rather "what" to build.

Home assistant 13 years old!

🎂 Happy birthday to us!

Home Assistant is officially a teenager. 13 years old today 🥳🏠

Here’s to the teenage years! 🎉

@ToniRMCardoso You’re right. The docs already mentioned that HA keeps old readings and included a last_seen freshness check. I’ve now made that clearer and added a copy-paste automation condition.

Made HASS Connect because apparently my doorbell also needed to interrupt my PC.

Windows 11 sensors + notifications for Home Assistant. No MQTT.

Early release. Bugs probably included.

@jorisroovers So tiny!

Nest Protect loudly announcing "Nest Protect will expire soon" four times in a row, at almost midnight, every single evening, is a whole new kind of hell. It doesn’t even expire until November, and there’s no way to disable the announcement, even in the app.

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

@jorisroovers I'm currently looking at Heiman Zigbee HS1SA-E which has good reviews and Z2M support but I wonder if it will cover the holes left by the Nest.

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

@MathesonStep @ccostan Nope. Nothing ticks all the boxes so far.

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

@jorisroovers Yeah, getting away from Apple was very hard for me.

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

@ccostan I've removed it from the ceiling 😄

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

@NotEnoughTECH If only at 7am! They do it at midnight! 2 months before expiry!

[Alexey @alphasixtyfive]

@jorisroovers Interesting! What ZigBee ones did you go with?

I don't have any unify gear so far and I'm scared to start buying it as at feels a bit like Apple ecosystem cult. 🫣
