Look into the Shortcuts app. This is Apples answer to creating automations on your iPhone. While I’ve never tried this, I see that it can send actions to the HA app. Perhaps that will do what you want
So your options include
HomeKit bridge also makes the devices available to Siri
What do you need the HomeKit device for?
I’m a light user of HomeKit so may not have run into the limitations yet. I use the HomeKit Bridge to expose a few light switches to HomeKit and then used AppleFamily to duplicate that to my kids. What little I use it for is fine without a HomeKit device
We have a scanner that does that on every build.
It blocks builds for dependencies with
As a developer, you’re free to use anything that works
I have yet to figure out how my company views contributing back to open source. I don’t know of anyone actively doing that, but it turns out we host a few originals of open source. I’ve been trying to improve development processes, get tools and dependencies up to date …… but then I ran into things where it’s a bigger change because of the downstream opensource dependencies and because it’s not really owned by the company
No one brought up ai yet? No, srsly ……
My opinion on these licenses is theoretical since I haven’t actually developed any open source.
However an analogous scenario which DOES affect me, and most people here ….
All well and good until AI came along and everyone sees a potential jackpot. And there’s Reddit, wanting a bigger share of that jackpot. They’ve taken the idea a step farther and I’m not ok with it. I guess I don’t like the restrictions and I don’t like the extra levels of profiteering: Reddit makes money off providing my content in a limited form to private companies. They in turn make money off AI trained by my content, to a limited audience and there is no longer a portion credited to my pseudonym. Technically they’re in the right since I never thought to prevent this scenario, but they’re not using it in the way I expected/intended/ was told
A throwaway reference to another thread on here …. Someone tried to sue a restaurant when he choked on a bone in his boneless chicken wings. The court ruled he can’t sue because “boneless” is just a style of cooking and doesn’t make any claim about whether that meal has bones. …. That kind of misrepresentation, and dodging responsibility should be illegal. All sorts of scamming the customer should be illegal and isn’t
If I can go on a bit of a rant, I do believe in the power of the market to shape our lives, our economy, our society. Conservatives got that part right. But a market is only “free” when everyone plays by the same rules and has same facts and knowledge, free choice. A market is only beneficial when it is shaped by regulators to benefit society. A market is only sustainable when it incorporates externalities. If Conservatives are gung ho about free markets, they need to step up and do their part. While there’s a nice theory about the usefulness of Marketting, the primary use is to lie, subvert, fool, distort the market, and THAT should be illegal
Boneless chicken with bones
Hopefully it’s all electronic. There should be nothing to make easier.
Meanwhile, why would you use a service that maintain privacy, while making choices to lose the benefit?
I used to do something like that a couple decades ago. I still have a domain with wildcard email forwarding, with the goal of using a different email for every service. Then I know who leaked my information, knew which password to reset, and who to block. But it wouldn’t be difficult to connect me with the domain, so one of the reasons I stopped using it was not seeing a privacy benefit (plus it was too much work).
Now that we have services to make it easy, let them do their thing. Every account ve created in the last 3 years has a unique generated email as well as a generated password. It’s all managed by a password manager so easy for me, and every time there’s a leak of my credential, I know which to rest or delete. I know which email to stop forwarding
Also, check back in a month. Sometimes a domain squatter will just never at, hopin to flip it before the registrar takes it back
Oh. Yeah. Nothing to see here. Everyone carry on
I’m in the US but suddenly need to take a couple weeks vacation because my European employer has some weird fiscal year nonsense going on. Apparently the current year is 2025 and my “rollover” vacation days from 2024 expire soon
Nitpicking here, but I’ve never seen anyone actually spell out the word “quote” in this context, when typing it online. We have a special character for that
YeaH, even the US is moving toward renewables and there are some highlights like steel production, but way too slowly, way too many lowlights, like peak fossil fuel production and export. That data shows we’re heading in the right direction, but all too slowly, we may not keep the pace, and could even see future growth in fossil fuels, all else being equal.
I know it’s a reflection of data predictability but I’m especially frustrated they don’t see EVs getting above 30% of the fleet. I hear Biden trying to be encouraging, but this data shows us nebpver meeting his 2030 goal for transportation
Excellent news.
It really needs to mention the US, though. I know this is about Europe, and trying to celebrate good news, and you’re probably tired of us making everything about the US, but we’ve “earned” our place in any article about climate change or carbon emissions.
My country deserves to be named and shamed for lagging in something so critical. It needs to be nagged continuously to catch up. It needs to be reminded of the impact it has made and continues to make. There are still so many people who don’t believe it’s real or don’t think it will impact them and don’t care who it does impact, so many both politicians and constituents who can’t look beyond their immediate desires.
I feel like Chinas carbon emissions will just disappear suddenly. Yeah, they’re using way too much coal, and still growing with fossil fuels, but consider their growth in renewables. The good thing about dictatorships is that it’s possible to build out renewables faster than the rest of the world combined, but among the many bad parts is you’re not balancing supply with demand. There’s no way they don’t suddenly have a huge glut of power and have to decide what to shut down permanently
it’s very clear that the the EPA is allowed to act
Are you sure about that? Did Congress spell out how to handle those specific pollutants?
WiFi also usually means an internet portal, which impacts responsiveness, potentially violates privacy, and leaves you at the mercy of a company continuing to provide the service.
Zigbee is not just cheaper and uses less power, but it’s open and local so there’s not some company accumulating your data to sell and you’re not at their mercy
I have Shelby flood sensors in the basement, based on WiFi. They were cheap and the batteries last over a year. While they do have an online portal, the HA integration can read them locally. One of the things I get from it is a graph of temperatures, however the data points can be an hour or more apart.
For fans of outdoor cooking, especially with this versatile pellet grill …. [email protected](https://lemmy.world/c/traeger)
I just got one of these grills and am learning about smoking - let’s help each other out, appreciate each others efforts, and cook some feasts
Why not both? More automation is definitely cool, but also make the door work better for you. I hate that style of lock
First thing I did when I moved into my current home is to replace deadbolt with a key inside with a standard deadbolt with an inside knob
