Yeah it’s essentially a trigger. I have a few purposes. One is for my dumb washing machine plugged into an energy monitoring smart plug. After it registers the washing is done, I’ll get alerts through the house in intervals until I get up and scan the NFC tag on the washing machine (I forget to hang out washing.

As I’m in a rental and I can’t have smart switches so I have smart globes and put tags on the switches to toggle the lights.

One by my bedside table to turn off all the lights and smart plugs.

One on my front door to set my away from home scene.

I also have a signed band poster hung on the wall with one, which opens the album in Spotify.

Good fun.

NFC tags are cheap and fun

Your cat is amazing haha!

No thanks needed. She helps me more.

They really do! It’s been so rewarding I think I’ll always adopt seniors now throughout my life.

Oh yeah I see! I like this it’s actually quite a beautiful colour then. She is always laying/rolling in dirt so must be a mixture of both!

Black cat covered in dirt lol.

No she’s got her eyes but one goes sideways lol. I love her for it.

Nah that’s just dirt haha

I’m having success with TubeSync through docker compose.

Happy first birthday Rosie, you’re absolutely gorgeous.

Oh wow I also have a black cat called Ember.

Laughing at my pathetic existence as her can opener.

Wouldn’t be surprised if she did actually cackle. Her personality is quite aloof, strange and perfect.

Little sleepy sweat pea face

I’m using Newpipe but haven’t tried LibreTube. Interested to try it out. How come you prefer it?

It’s a light globe for the house that has some sort of connectivity with it. Like wifi, bluetooth, zigbee so that you can control it remotely or automate it.

Ooh nice. I need to figure out some other type of bulb. The ones I have are TP Link Tapo Wifi and they’re too unreliable.

Oh and you can put Adguard on home assistant too as an add on.
