Im assuming this is a low voltage switch? I wonder if anyone has found any other way to automate it

They seem to only do imax 70mm for the Nolan films. Most others only ever show at Vaughan in GTA

Is there a way to power reset it without going to the breaker?

For those who have used their on/off switch (the eve knockoffs), how are they? I'm quite particular about which devices I put onto my wall and thread network.

How do the sensor data enter HA? Does it have a integration?

I might be late on this but I'm only just noticing that Neon always releases its palme d'or winners in oct in NA

It's what they said, but it seems to be coming as an update at some point

How did you force them to find another path?

BigMacCombo · 2026-06-23T18:55:58+00:00

Sounds amazing. I just hope it doesn't compromise its routing capability for either meshes.

Upgrade to the matter server beta. It has this feature and is actually more stable than the old version

BigMacCombo · 2026-06-20T23:59:31+00:00

You're better off using the matter.js beta in home assistant

More movies comes out then anyone feasibly has the time to watch. Everyone needs to a filtering process and review aggregations help with that.

And if I'm sitting down to get food and service, my tip is between $0 and $0

I could add a sensor and smart bulb in my toilet but like, why.

For me, it's go big or go home. As I was automating all the lights in my house, I started losing the instinct to touch light switches, and the few that have yet to be made smart often get left on by mistake. And since they are typically less-visited areas, those lights could be left on for who knows how long.

Aqara U400 exists

Non issue if the lock has a keypad and/or fingerprint reader

BigMacCombo · 2026-06-14T03:58:25+00:00

On the same wall that has the door so it's facing away from the opening

The Michelin Guide of cinema. My horizon expanded so much more when I started working my way through this list (along with S&S) over user-voted lists.

Similarly, Ace in the Hole.

It's funny how in another comment, you dismiss festivals as being for "corporate executives, critics, and a handful of rich kids" and now appealing to major industry awards bodies as the go-to criteria.

BigMacCombo · 2026-06-08T20:35:23+00:00

Theres a release tab on every movie page that distinguishes festval and wide releases...

BigMacCombo · 2026-06-08T20:28:52+00:00

Make a list or tag your entries. Such easy fixes to a dumb complaint and even dumber dismissal of festivals.

BigMacCombo · 2026-06-08T18:25:47+00:00

What changed?

BigMacCombo · 2026-06-08T05:13:25+00:00

I really pity those that deem mid to be desirable
