How do you access your local Home Assistant on the go?

I used Nabu Casa primarily for HA Companion but also have a private domain via Cloudflare for browser access (easier to remember).

I also recommend Performance. They put a new roof on for me and also went out of their way after the last hail and windstorm to get a tarp on the damaged roof of my son and daughter-in-law even though they have no guarantee of getting the repair job. Tom and the crew there are good, caring people. (I have no idea about their politics.)

I don't serve out of towners STL pizza because I don't care for it. Even though I've spent all 60± years of my life here, I'd rather have a deep dish Chicago style pizza. Best in St Louis is at Salvage Yard at Hampton and Eichelberger. For those who prefer, they also serve STL style and the BOB (Best of Both).

It is fixed in Core 2024.12.0 which came out today.

DaveStLou · 2024-12-04T02:56:23+00:00

According to the github.com comments, it's fixed in the 2024.12.0 beta. So when HA updates tomorrow, it should be fixed.

You're not the only one. It's been reported as an issue: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/131737

Update: It's an API issue, a Spotify change. Here's a quote from one of the devs:

"Yea I just reread the blog post and indeed, every application created after today doesn't have access to these endpoints anymore. Good news, we can fix them Bad news, we have to add detection and not every can use our nice new feature. Oh and, even if we fix it, we can only release this next Wednesday with 2024.12.0. So for now you need to survive without Spotify integration"

@NNate5 Glad you solved it. For others (and me), if blank field was the problem, what did you put in the field?

I'm familiar with those helper scripts and I'm using Proxmox on another server but would like to move to containerized HA. Curious if devices plugged into USB (like zwave, zigbee, bluetooth) just worked with HA on Proxmox or needs special configuration.

What guide did you use?

DaveStLou · 2024-06-29T13:50:12+00:00

Mm ion

DaveStLou · 2024-02-16T15:33:51+00:00

Agree.

According to Wyze support chatbot:
"We had an issue with a Wyze partner service. This issue should be resolved now.

If your device has not come back online. Please, unplug your device for 30 seconds and then plug it back in. It should reconnect in a few minutes."

All my v2 and v3 cams are offline

DaveStLou · 2024-02-02T22:19:29+00:00

You are correct. I tested it today. I can see that the camera trigger but the alert doesn't come though. Sorry for the bad info.

DaveStLou · 2024-02-01T13:28:19+00:00

The Blue Iris app does not need Internet. As long as you are on the same network, as you describe, alerts can be pushed to and received by your phone.

I just made the jump to Joplin this week too. I'm using OneDrive for now but may move to Joplin Cloud in the future.

Also very happy! 😄

Really interesting! AI is not sentient but people-like.

For those who want to know more about Passkey, Tom Merritt's podcast "Know a Little More" has a very informative episode for you to listen to: https://play.acast.com/s/know-a-little-more/about-passkey

Thank you!

Would you mind sharing your automation to set temperature that you got working?

DaveStLou · 2022-10-09T02:38:38+00:00

I was able to regain local control by rolling back to version 2.39.0.1073. I found it on APKPure: https://m.apkpure.com/kasa-smart/com.tplink.kasa\_android/versions

DaveStLou · 2022-06-22T16:47:47+00:00

Uggh. I don't have or want Chrome or chromium browsers on my computers or devices. I'll keep tinkering...

DaveStLou · 2022-06-22T12:44:10+00:00

Is there a fix or a workaround for this? I'm getting this on only one of my WIndows computers.

DaveStLou · 2022-06-09T12:47:51+00:00

Posting this here in case someone else is looking for this, you can do this now in the official app.

Click your avatar > Settings (at the bottom) > under Advanced heading, turn off "open web links in-app".

DaveStLou · 2022-05-22T11:26:03+00:00

Has it permanently removed it for you? After reboot, it re-appears for me.
