I created a view dedicated to my newborn. A to-do list is integrated, along with task buttons that automatically add to the list, along with a timestamp.

It’s amazingly helpful and keeps my wife and I on the same page.

I use a two button IKEA Zigbee remote near each diaper changing station. One button labeled “#1”, and the other, “#2”. 😉

I also set up some voice commands through Google Home that will log various tasks to the HA to-do list.

“Why’s the baby crying? * checks to-do list * Oh…it’s been three hours since I fed him 😑”

I finally tried licking one recently, and it didn’t taste like anything

Me the second I read this: FUCK. THAT. 😠

The last lending library I saw had some religious discs placed inside them. Expected them to be of the usual Christian variety. Oddly enough, it was actually of some rabbi.

I was under the impression that Judaism wasn’t about proselytising. 🤷

Earlier this week, YouTube for Android TV had an update that caused it to crash at startup.

On a hot steak there, Google…

LaRosa’s Pizza for me!

Are they smaller? These new IKEA plugs seem like they are less wide than the Third Reality ones, but they might stick out farther.

Either way, those Third Reality plugs are nice.

Wow, that looks tasty!

What brand is it?

Me reading the headline: “🙄 Who isn’t making a mechanical keyboard these days…”

Me after looking at the pictures: “I…might want that…”

If it’s similar to OpenUV, you have to manually request new data.

To do this, create an automation that periodically calls the service Home Assistant Core Integration: Update entity (homeassistant:update_entity).

Text-to-speech (TTS), perhaps?

Create an automation that gets triggered by the garage door being open, and use TTS as the action. Play it on a media player entity you have connected to HA.

It is my understanding that most LEDs are inherently blue, but they add phosphors that mask the appearance of that blue light, making it appear white to our eyes.

If you look at the spectrum for an LED bulb there is almost always a big spike in the blue part of the wavelength.

So, if you were to “turn off” the blue light, you would be turning off the source of the light itself. Because of that, filtering is often used to lessen that blue bump in the spectrum.
