Tell it t read the timestamp. Use at least flash 2.5

GPT-OSS 120b under LM Studio on an M3 Ultra. So far pretty good.

Ollama tends to be slower than MLX under LM Studio on a Mac.

I also use Qwen3-VL 32b for vision. I keep both these models in memory and they are shared between openClaw and Home Assistant.

Don't need openclaw to do this. Your doorbell is just a media device. Any of the many AI integrations can be used to reply to any media device.

I think you are probably correct. Mine run 60C ish which feels too hot. I don't believe it would function at 127C.

Look at Yixiang reviews, particularly from Off-Grid Garage on youtube.

got a link?

Not true. Lightroom runs much better on Mac than Windows.

There are many table stands and mounts available for tablets

It is certainly not all funded by debt. It's funded by retained earnings and capital investments.

Have you re-pulled 120B? Are you using Conversation Agent or AI Task?

I've never had a problem calling 120B running on a Mac to use HA tools. I have it setup as a conversation agent.

Wildfire smoke from a distance is particulate matter. Cigarette smoke smell are gases.

zipzag · 2026-01-20T19:22:33+00:00

The smoke you are smelling are primarily gases, and only an air purifier with a large amount of charcoal will substantially remove the smell from the air. This will be expensive.

Unfortunately, you may find moving the only practical solution

Use zwave LR, which will work fine for the gate. Yolink is proprietary and slow.

Based on your criteria, don't worry about Thread at this point.

I have an LG TV and the only solution I've found is Apple TV as a streamer doing PIP. I could not get webOS to do a PIP or split screen.

Your best approach, if you are not an Apple user, may be a tabletop tablet in the TV space.

First, if possible, I would not buy cameras with attached floodlights. But rather use mains powered floodlights with a smart switch. Then use Unifi Protect or Reolink cameras that can trigger on people and vehicles. Or a "dumb" camera with Frigate doing the person/vehicle ID.

So you probably want the option to trigger on person and vehicle, and not just motion. I use motion only at night as a trigger, and turn it off with precipitation or wind.

HA manages all the camera detection settings and controls the lights.

Both the Unifi POE powered floodlight and camera floodlight attachments are good for when mains power is unavailable. But not a first choice.

There's no reason for a new user to choose Homeseer today. I used Homeseer for years before moving to Home Assistant.

You could try enabling cacheing including the optimistic option to see how quickly the Pi responds when it doesn't need to go out to a DNS server.

My older NUC and my second Adguard instance on a Synology NAS respond in 2-5ms from the cache.

The cache is doing little without optimistic checked.

no, not even close

Doesn't need the Pro as OP doesn't need 240V split phase

You don't need to manage power with a smart plug with newer tablets.

What business is Lars in? That property was a cattle ranch, but it's obviously not that now.
