Update. mmWave works through the glass great!

In fact it sees me through the wall before I even enter the bathroom now. Super cool! Got two and set on up in my office

i wonder how large a drone would have to be to support a light-weight, but high RPM, 22lr gun? say printed in PA12CF, for instance.

Been thinking about long range drones a lot lately. Great for surveiling surrounding areas, and many other use cases

Might be related to whatever Melania’s recent announcement about Epstein was about.
Might be some news dropping

Yep the automation checks for multiple possible indicators that I’m home

yep very! just needed to have wireless adb enabled on the tv. just enter the TV ip in the integration setup in HA

I know this is old but you can use the Android Debug Bridge integration to trigger specific videos on your Android tv. I have it start a fireplace video on a Smart tube (adfree youtube) when I get home and set the volume low.

I’m using just humidity and its working great. I put the sensor away from my sink so it isn’t triggered by washing my hands.

This will only consider you showering if humidity goes 9% above the 1hr average humidity:

You need a ‘Statistics’ Helper, call it “Average Bathroom Humidity” and base it on whatever humidity sensor you have. Make it “average linear” then set Max Age to 1 hour. (leave other options default)

Make this Template Binary Sensor called “Showering”:

{{ (states('sensor.bathroom_sensor_humidity')|float - states('sensor.average_bathroom_humidity')|float) > 9 }}

The servers are the filters 😊 To be clear when I say servers I mean old laptops running my nextcloud and homeassistant

Mostly sun, but the hail is brutal too (but not often)

Everyone’s car here has the most sun faded paint filled with cracks and chips. Cars younger than mine look 50 years old

We don’t talk about that room… 🤫

But for real it’s a walk in closet. I have my servers in there, along with clothes and storage. I plan to put stats on the dashboard in that spot

Thanks! took me a little under a week of tweaking here and there.

I learned that you should really just want until you’re SURE you’re done with the 3d model before making images and getting into the HomeAssistant part. Saves you from doing the same repetitive stuff over and over when you want to make a change.

its really not that hard, I bet you’d get the hang of it fast. Just start with the SweetHome3D part, once you are happy with it move on to the Gimp part.

dont settle for the built in resources that arent exactly what your furniture looks like. this site has practically everything: https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/

Yeah it makes NO sense. I found out how many empty triangles of space there are in this house while doing this project.

Those closets are actually rectangles in real life.

The bathroom door should absolutely be further out, the space is wasted currently

it’s a never ending rabbit hole. my goal now is to never touch a light switch.
already have my office and bathroom turn on via PIR sensors (using ESPHome), gonna buy a ton since they are so cheap

livingroom-red for reference

looks clean though! I originally planned on doing something more minimal but went overboard

you could use that empty space in the corner for stats like indoor temp and weather!

surprisingly no!

i used the way everyone has done it honestly, would be a redundant video

here is a good one, almost exactly what I did
