Google acknowledges Assistant issues with Home, teases ‘major improvements’ coming
Google is teasing some "major improvements" for Assistant and Home while acknowledging recent shortcomings.

This is the best #HomeAssistant component I've seen in a long time. Genuinely amazing. Found on r/homeassistant.

heise | Home Assistant: Haus smart steuern mit interaktivem Grundriss
Mit Home Assistant lassen sich Grundrisse erstellen, um das Smart Home zu steuern. Per KI sind die sogar einfach aufhübschbar, etwa im Retro-Pixelstil.

I'm always curious of how a device becomes worse with time when it comes to their AI / speech recognition. Like how do you make it dumber?

@… @… Been thinking about this for a week now, and the more I think about it. The more I realise it's not a singular project, it is:
* My home lab, as it runs Home Assistant (and thus part of our house), experiments, stable (dataming) serv…

Remember the home assistant bubble? Wasn’t there a prediction that significant percentage of searches would be performed that way? Those people weren’t quiet didn’t they.😅
Probably moved onto promoting their perceived values of Gen AI now.

One week ago I said there should be a TUI for Home Assistant because it would look dope as fuck and make SSH access pleasant. There is one now, and here's the first release of it: https://github.com/theodric/hatui

Memo to self: um Gen3-H&T-Sensoren von Shelly in Home Assistant einzubinden, ist zwingend die Aktivierung des Websocket (und die neuste Firmware) beim Sensor notwendig. Erst danach bei HA einbinden, sonst können die Daten nicht gelesen werden. Im Zweifel löschen und über die IP-Adresse erneut einbinden.

heise | Home Assistant: Wetterabhängige Automationen für den Sommer einrichten
Hohe Temperaturen und UV-Werte belasten unseren Körper. Das Smart Home macht heiße Sommertage über clevere Automationen verträglicher.

Puh. #HomeAssistant wirft native Installationen und 32Bit-Systeme (incl. ARM) ausm Support. Sehr schade. Jetzt geht nur noch VM oder Container, also noch mehr Abstraktion und Rumpaketiere zwischen HA und dem System, was kaputt gehen kann. Alles sehr unschön, da HAOS viele Geräte nicht sauber unterstützt und Container viele Einschränkungen bei Netzwerk und Sicherheit hat. :/

Also Home Assistant einzurichten, das geht ja noch mit wenig #Schweißperlen.
ABER WENN DU ES HÜBSCH MACHEN MÖCHTEST...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
🤪 🤣 😱

Can Tuya Zigbee devices work directly with Home Assistant with a USB dongle (with no Tuya hub) or do they need to be flashed in order to do that?

If you use Home Assistant and would prefer a simple noun-verb-based command line interface to control stuff from a terminal (or cron job!), good news: somebody wrote one: https://github.com/xx4h/hctl

@… I have a question. Is there any way to install the watch app of home assistant from fdroid? I would trust it much more than the one from the play store.

Loosely coupled configuration for @….
TL;DR: use areas instead of custom groups

If your #zigbee integration in the current #HomeAssistant doesn't work anymore and you run #zigbee2mqtt , try restarting the latter. It fixed it for me.

Was macht ihr so mit home assistant? Habt ihr must read links für mich?
Meine Level 1 Automatisierung wäre z.B. dass bei Wettervorhersage Sonnenschein der Speicher nicht vor 11 Uhr anfangen soll zu laden und lieber um 8 Uhr eingespeist werden soll, statt um 12. Mal sehen, ob das geht.

There needs to be a TUI for Home Assistant. It would improve remote access, and it would look dope as fuck.
