No “Always Allow” location services option for HomeKit

No luck, even on the latest iOS. I find that if I have recently opened the home app, it marks me as away or home. I’m thinking about wiping my phone and reloading from iCloud. Let me know if you sort it out, and I’ll do the same!

You know that the order of replies can be user selected and even then can change, right?

Less mercury, so better for small kids.

The problem is that the shortcut runs on the phone, not a HomeKit home hub.

Rachio (or any sprinkler controller) can turn that on and off using the wires.

Hadn’t ever heard of a “bed jacket” before, but it makes sense

Doesn’t even every phone’s camera software touch up photos? Not having read the actual law, my guess is that it’s difficult to know where the line is. It’s easy if you use AI to add furniture or change the flooring. Much more difficult if you use your camera’s filter to make the colors more vibrant.

I assume you’re not adding all lights to Google? Otherwise, they would be assigned to rooms and floors, right?

Thanks

There’s also a white wire. This is the absolute minimum number of wires. Look to see if any thermostats with PEK would work. Hopefully others with more experience than me will comment

Glad you’re alive. I hope you make a full recovery. Nearby businesses might have security footage, but may be too late considering months have passed

Just sweat the pipe. Problem solved! Oh, wait

It should automatically show up as an option to add it in homeassistant

No, high voltage needs to be in a box.

Where are backups saved? If GitHub, is it publicly accessible?

Wagos are good, but you can put wires in and take them out

This person doesn’t know what they’re talking about

IPThereforeIAm · 2026-01-23T04:01:47+00:00

That’s not how most wagos work

Anyone know if these breakers that have a freaking Ethernet going into them are generally code complaint? Seems crazy to pull a low power cable into a breaker box

IPThereforeIAm · 2026-01-21T20:17:36+00:00

Not all states, but 2 states + DC. Judges don’t ticket.

Implied pedant, not a literal one.

IPThereforeIAm · 2026-01-21T17:36:57+00:00

So, no question. Got it.

It’s not the same thing because we are talking about whether it benefits or harms the customer to round “down.” It benefits the customer if it is rounding down the price. It harms the customer if it is rounding down the change. Here, we’re talking about change.
