I had to get an XL hoodie at the airport last week and it's like a big poncho

solar zealot
#

I got a 3xl one

#

Fuck it, cozy stuff is cozy

#

Now I need to get someone to steal it from me tho

primal laurel
#

3XL will fit two people

solar zealot
#

Couple sized

Or regular American

I'm sure there are basement dwellers on GitHub looking for clothing

or, hear me out. Pants + hoodie in one

Oh, workwear

Don't mess with the gangs and have lots of security cameras

With the mascot nabu

Horst is trying to trigger me.

solar zealot
#

I'm sorry but YOU put a sticker on the box that says "okay Nabu" therefore that's the name

midnight adder
#

the most important part of mascot nabu is the rotary motor that changes to 9:16 back when you finished your movie so Nabu can live in portrait mode again

solar zealot
#

It's called Alexa because that's how you talk to echos

midnight adder

like literaly turning the TV 😄

Well yes but that's why the PE is called Nabu and not caster

Anyone else having problems with custom components from Hacs refusing to install or update with a "No content to download" message?

Since the 2025.1, or perhaps since the Hacs 2.0 update, im having this problem on certain allready installed custom_components like the Frigate video card, and the Nordpool custom component.

Just now i found out that i get the error on new installs as well, i just tried to downlod the WebRTC camera component from Hacs, and got the very same error message.

I don't think it has anything to do with the docs.

primal laurel
#

oh okay yeah that's a different problem

#

just FYI, in case you do need to change the docs. All you need to change the docs is that button and the right file. Submit your changes and done

all the HA docs have a button that links to the right file

ofcourse somebody has to merge it 😄

She made her own.

That one is named Cherry. And her husband absolutely hates it.

He is vehemently against long furbies.

SO ANOTHER FURBY THEY GET

solar zealot

Has he considered divorce

#

This is a criminal offense to have such creatures in your home

lone dagger
#

I asked her if she wanted the one with centipede legs and she said this.

#

She knows I am making it, but she won't see progress because she wants her reaction to be genuine when I show up with it at her house.

But only yours right?

#

I thought I had a moose in the garden, odd "footsteps" about 4 meters apart

Turned out it was a fox that was hauling ass after a hare, when I looked at my cameras

#

I could have had a bloody fox pet! And I missed it

I will see what I can do

A config just died on me. The first symptom was that it seemed to be stuck on loading history or similar. I restarted my Raspberry pi 5 and it now doesn't load at all. Is the first suspicion the SD card gone faulty ?

Nah, it came back and then lost connection. Network issue, somehow.

I know there were a lot of really overly negative people in here a few months back and I don't mean to sound like them, so I'll keep it short: is there another Discord server besides this one dedicated to HA stuff?

lone dagger
#

There are a couple regional specific ones I’m aware of but I’m guessing that’s not what you mean.

gritty glade
#

I don't want to get into it too much because again, I appreciate all the work everyone does here and some people were real stinkers for no reason. I just don't like the direction of the recent big changes, and since them I have gotten absolutely no help when I used to get all sorts.

iron granite
#

Not for every question someone has an answer. Especially in edge cases or custom stuff.

gritty glade
#

Absolutely! No disagreement there, totally get that. But there were usually lots of people willing to put their heads (and collective smatterings of knowledge) together to try to work through little things for people that seems to have completely vanished recently with this change.

primal laurel
#

what about the community forum?

gritty glade
#

I go there often, just really miss the more freeform discussion that happened here before. Found it more helpful to most of my problems than a forum style discussion.

frigate vs the 21 other services lol

unborn merlin
#

yeah frigate can do some serious usage; I had to move it out of the same VM as HAOS because it was causing some issues with webui and responsiveness

#

not.. entirely frigate or HAOS's fault to be honest since its on a piece-of-shit-old-intel-xeon system thats like.. 2.0 ghz cores and has like almost 20 cameras in it.

stiff roost
#

yeah i have an old gaming pc running this so its fine

#

but pretty funny

unborn merlin
#

that helps significantly yes, because of how more modern intel cpus can transcode better and etc..

I think thats.. like.. one of the only areas that intel still has the advantage over AMD right now?

I dunno. I pipe my desktop of my server through an rf modulator and just view the channel on tv's. old tv had an overscan fix

probably cause i'm running xubuntu

just annoying cause turning off the overscan on the old tv worked perfectly but this one dosen't have an option for that

Anyone know how to pull Alexa devices to home assistant

unborn merlin
#

you use the official way (which requires a nabu sub)

.. Or you follow the very damn obnoxious and tedious but not needing much repetition way on the documentation to do it yourself to connect..

digital kraken
#

But can I take devices that work with Alexa only and put it onto my home assistant dashboard

#

I have only seen how to add home assistant devices to Alexa to control with voice

unborn merlin
#

then no I don't believe so?

That wouldn't really work with their "Use our stuff thats the answer"

#

With a side of "Even if you do use our stuff Alexa is still going to be losing us hilarious amounts of money."

#

🙃

digital kraken
#

I have a tevolve gateway that only works with Google or Alexa and it’s my radiators so I’m trying to pull them into home assistant dashboard no luck in trying to figure out how

unborn merlin
#

may be time to hack things then.. 😄

Or check in the support areas to see if anyone else already has/is working on it.

digital kraken
#

Nope no one is with my luck this product is very lowkey not a lot own it

#

And I’ve not enough knowledge at all to bring it over myself and develop

unborn merlin
#

unfortunate.

digital kraken
#

It’s very dumb that it’s not possible to pull such big companies Alexa and Google devices with ease to home assistant

unborn merlin
#

Its almost like

#

.... that's by their design?

digital kraken
#

Sounds about right

#

I’m reading up and it might be possible with esp home

#

Gonna give it a go

unborn merlin
#

yeah, anything is..

#

looks like the gateeway uses RF to communicate; which is.. possibly really easy on the scale of difficulty if you just.. replace their RF with your own or such

digital kraken
#

How would I replace the RF

unborn merlin
#

as in an ESP32 RF thing

digital kraken
#

Intresting but how would I go about it

unborn merlin
#

you would of course; have to work their protocol out

digital kraken
#

Assume it’s gonna be hard

unborn merlin
#

which is probably for a support channel

#

Hard is relative here.

It may very well (and probably is considering how laazy these companies are) be a very simple protocol with very little data.

digital kraken
#

I’ve tried there’s too many and no one be answering mine

digital kraken
unborn merlin
#

if its encrypted or such.. more annoying; if not.. dumb simple. etc

digital kraken
unborn merlin
#

thats just the very start..

digital kraken
#

Thanks bud

#

Oh no the start 😅

#

What’s next

#

Oh look; there is an instructable for it.. 🤣

#

though if it has rolling codes it'll not be so simple.

#

A whole step by step process that is a god send

#

Now I’ve to get to ordering parts

#

And learning in a deep rabbit hole of RF

#

All in the name of connecting a radiator to a a Dashboard

unborn merlin
#

the other option

digital kraken
#

Please do tell I’m all ears

unborn merlin

is... analyzing the stuff on their website if you can control from there.

Not sure exactly if this is the right place to ask, but I have some plans to update the Proliphix integration for HA - I have two of the more advanced model of thermostats (NT120) that have functions that aren't supported in the current integration - setting fan mode, and reporting multiple heat stages. The problem is the integration relies on an external Python package - proliphix, that would need modification as well. For the past couple years I've just been applying the changes locally and overwriting the package. Would it make more sense to bring the entire thing into the HA integration, given that it's all just local HTTP requests?

It's fairly common knowledge for anyone that makes cocktails. But first result from a quick search if you want a bit more detail:

Stirring allows ingredients that readily blend together to do so. It dilutes the cocktail, making it more palatable, while chilling your drink. In contrast, a shaken cocktail should pour out looking a little carbonated or aerated. You might see ice chips floating around from aggressively shaking the cubes.

So if you're making something like an espresso martini, you want the aerated look, especially to get a proper foamy head. If you're making a regular martini, it should be smoooooooth,

# midnight adder please, could you explain the joke a bit further. Then I'll explain my ironic an...

The joke about the Utah teapot being described as a "diy kettle" plays on the fact that the Utah teapot is an iconic 3D model used in computer graphics. It's a standard reference object in the field of CGI, often used to test rendering techniques, lighting, and materials.

The term "diy kettle" is humorous because the Utah teapot, while resembling a teapot, is not an actual functional kettle; it’s just a digital 3D model. The joke implies that if you were to make your own "kettle" from this 3D model, you'd have a bad time as it is functionally a teapot. It blends the idea of something digital being mistaken for a practical, physical object, creating a humorous contrast.
