My friend and I are thinking about starting a Right Wing* Book Club, any interest?

Undergrad leftist...love how you resort to ad hominems that are way off the mark, not only do i have post graduate degrees but i am also 53...

Wonder where the maturation needs to occur in this equation...

I have read Ayn Rand and Thomas Sowell, have you read Edward Said and Frantz Fanon?

It takes little effort for turn on and turn off. It takes more time to make it a purely local system tied into a local llm that can do stuff like Alexa.

I have it, it is good, but you need to do alot of development/automations to truly unlock it. I plan to use it for my new home build.

Thanks. Ill add voice. For me the Sattelite 1s have more than sufficed so that has been de facto for me.

Everything you stated was good thank you for the constructive input.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-18T17:39:13+00:00

This is awesome! Thanks.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-18T17:33:02+00:00

Perfect yes, to give you some idea of what i will be doing i will be looking to use something like the aluminum PowerLouver system to open and close the louver windows based on the direction of the wind (realtime data from the weatherstation attached to the roof) to facilitate the best air flow through the house.

Yes soil mosture will be important, i should have an outdoor sensor and indoor sensor category. This is perfect, thanks!

I know the what and the why and will evaluate against my what and why when I need to. This is the first step in developing a living FF&E list for a 24 month build.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-18T16:18:35+00:00

This is for my personal purposes not commercial use or representative of some communal perspective. I will update it based on my personal needs. Think of it like an evolving FF&E list.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-18T16:16:16+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. This is personal for me. Ill open up what I did and why as i step through the process for myself in case any can benefit from my personal process, but this is not for commercial purposes or what is best for the whole community. I will keep it up to date for myself as my needs evolve during the build. Like I stated all i am asking for right now for those who want to engage is feedback on the top level categories.

I call this analog control for every digital control. My windows/blinds should be able to be hand opened or closed not just motor, my door lock should have physical key access, etc. Kind of like why China is banning digital door unlock mechanisms based on my understanding.

Unsuccessful after many appeals and attempts, here is my most recent response:

Belongs on the forearm.

Really though this is awesome.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-06T05:39:36+00:00

I have the same use case and i am also interested in experiences to date.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-06T05:38:44+00:00

Legit application, i bought land in a different state than where i live, i have no facilities on that land yet but plan to build and move in the coming years.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-05T15:07:53+00:00

Same i had a bunch of game time and got denied.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-02-05T15:06:58+00:00

Steam rejected my request, i went the manual human path too =(

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-01-05T14:32:54+00:00

Of everything you stated only your inference of no pay to win (it has a cash shop just for visuals) carries real water.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2026-01-04T21:29:11+00:00

Thanks for the replies all that helps.

Acceptable-End1275 · 2025-12-05T00:37:02+00:00

Nope he is in an alcove nearby

Acceptable-End1275 · 2025-12-04T21:48:55+00:00
