I had 5 minutes so I've just sent em a snotty email. I don't have an air conditioner and won't buy one anytime soon, but shit like this gets my goat.

I hate headlines like this purely because it makes a lot of people who were going to vote think "Meh, I don't really need to vote, Labour have it anyway" and then Labour don't have it.

I have some thoughts. Not with this shower of cunts, they can't even improve relations within their own party. I hope they all trip up and fall in a bed of nails

Same same

I heard a mate was going out on the piss, so I just asked him to keep an eye out for anyone selling an iPhone in a yellow case. It was stolen from my house the day before, 12 days before Xmas.

He rang me the next day and said he was offered said iPhone in the pub, and even went to their house where he saw more of my stuff.

Told the cops and they said they would have to talk to my mate. My mate is a bit dodgy and wouldn't go near a copper, so they just ignored the lead I had for them and shrugged.

I nearly got my big mates together to go down there myself, but that's vigilantism and I'm a shit legs.

Anyway, the cops were useless, and that was a decade ago, and it's slid since then.

Haha I've just come from a comment about Brexit, and I'd argue that a lot of Humans don't think either.

You're acting like birds are actually real or something

If it's anything like my setup (posted in the thread) they'll have a colder spot in the house, whereas the thermostat is in a warm part of the house.

My Nest heats to 22 degrees C but the whole house temp is a couple degrees lower than that.

When the whole house temp hits 20 the heating is switched off, but looking at the thermostat you'd think we're heating the house to a silly temp, when in fact there's a disparity between the thermostat temp and the temp of the whole house.

Mine is also different.

I got a Google Nest E thermostat off eBay from a charity shop for £12 and wired it in to where my old dumb dial thermostat was.

My ZigBee thermostats are just my ZigBee motion and door sensors that also have a temperature element.

I turned off the Nest smarts in Nest, and had HA come up with average temperatures for the whole house using the ZigBee things, then recreates the smarts in HA.

The Nest E smarts stopped working 6 months later but the heat link still worked, so I bought another off eBay for £20 and paired that.

I am gonna just get some ZigBee temp sensors at some point, but this works well enough for now.

Wrong explanations only

I second this statement. Most of my bulbs are IKEA. I have 4 floors and my ZigBee dongle is on the ground. If they weren't repeaters, my Aqara motion sensors wouldn't be working, but they do!

I do not agree.

Chrome: I know everything about every web page I have ever seen but don't understand it.

So I don't understand how to play a song.

YouTube: I know everything in the video from the thumbnail.

Closer, but I have to rely on the people on YouTube knowing wtf they're talking about, meaning I gain knowledge about a lot of shit, and incorrect knowledge too

So the Spotify one, combined with the knowledge I already have of music, makes more sense for learning music.

Obviously using Musical Knowledge as the example

I use bulbs I've bought from IKEA and Lidl. Because they're ZigBee they're local. The "Hub' is HA because I have a ZigaZiga https://electrolama.com/projects/zig-a-zig-ah/ usb stick.

I use ZigBee2MQTT in HA to route commands to my bulbs (and sensors and plugs) which routes ZigBee commands through my MQTT broker which is also in HA.

The only app I use is the Home Assistant app

I can already sing and play the guitar, not brilliantly but idgaf, so the Spotify one is really tempting. But I learned to play the Guitar from YouTube, and also how to speed solve a Rubik's cube and pick a lock, so that one would be super useful too. In fact I could just type in "How to play X song on the guitar"

So one of those two I guess, probably the YouTube one because job interviews would be way easier after a quick scroll through the thumbnails of a quick search before going in.

Not to mention Corporate Welfare

Same setup here but it's an Aqara ZigBee button.

I really like getting a notification that someone is at the door when I'm out. Yeah maybe it would be better with a video or picture, but I paid less than a fiver for it, including shipping from fucking China

Yes I do, and it's currently bugging out so I need to fix it.

I have it on a smart plug. I have an automation that checks the battery level. When it goes below a percentage (I forget what percentage) it turns on and turns back off at 80 percent.

So it never charges over 80 percent battery level which should keep the battery healthy.

The reason it's bugged out is because just yesterday I wired in a new plug socket with fancy usb charging points, so I switched out the smart plug for a smart usb plug (a Sonoff micro) which does not seem to be doing the job correctly.

I need to have another look at the automation.

Meh, it was already doing that rather than filling a land fill site. Now it's also a motion sensor...

I have my old phone as a clock and an old tablet as a wall controller that's really just a digital photo frame most of the time.

Yeah, kinda lol. It wasn't an extra motion sensor though, it was already "Using more power" and now it's doing this, also

How about stop coming up with another way of selling me alcohol and just start selling weed by the eighth?

Stop fucking around you cunts.
