  • Still having fun with HA? :)

    I've got the RM Mini 3 which works fine for the heat pump, just slow as it's cloud based. Using smartir plugin, had to learn all commands though as it wasn't in there.

    For the TV I have this one, flashed esphome on it so it's local only and no longer cloud based.

  • I am Feedly user as well, but use the FeedMe app on Android. I prefer that app over the Feedly one, it's free, and I can add as many categories as I want whereas Feedly limits it to three or so in the free version :)

  • In other words, they want the government to spend a few hundred mill on rolling stock, and still more on other subsidies, on a service that would take nearly twice as long to go between Auckland and Wellington as a bus.

    Driving time WLG <=> AKL is about 7.5 hours. Assuming a 15 minute break every 2 hours, that's about 8.5 hours. It's 650km, so that's about 76km/hour on average. I'm sure a train can go as fast / faster than that; definitely not <40km/hour like you suggest.

  • Yes, indeed, diesel trains emit lower emissions when more than 1/3 full. See also #10 here

    And, diesel is not the final solution, but it's a first step. If the protesters would ask for 100% electrified rail it would be shut down as well by opponents that it's too hard. So I think it's a very good option to switch to diesel rail for now.
