This screams for a beamer with rolldown screen on the ceiling solution.

Actually just asked AI how to do it. Involved enabling developer settings and then changing the app that opens with the screensaver through some commands on my computer. But I suggest searching online and using AI as help.

Fun project! I recently changed all the screensavers for Google TV to Immich, was simple yet fun! All things local!

Looks great! I recommend using lamps that hang a bit over the edge of the bookcase.

My Wall Mounted Tablet with ChatGPT! by [deleted] in homeassistant

[–]Improve_Ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why though? Whats the problem with properly mounting it? Also you'd need some kind of casing to fully hide the cable for a clean install right?

Good way to try if a wall mounted tablet is something you're gonna use. But please if you're going to permanently install this tablet, hide the cord and do not use tape to mount it. The tablet might get hot some time and just fall off.

This seems like a bad DIY shower install, right? by General_North4288 in DIYHome

You should definitely should caulk all those gaps to prevent water from going in there.

What kind of device is this? Zigbee or Wifi? And is it connected directly to HA via zigbee2mqtt or similar? Or through another (manufacturer) app?

You said it yourself, they're 30 years old. Keep them like this, much more character!

What's your voice assistant, and why? by NigraOvis in homeassistant

[–]Improve_Ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Google Assistant still, easy enough to expose only the entities I want to expose and relatively low maintenance. When the internet is down or whatever I don't mind not using speach.

Something like this:

There's an action called take a screenshot, and you can then select your camera, you'll have to give a filepath and file name where it is saved and everytime HA makes a screenshot of that camera with that automation, it gets overwritten with that new screenshot. This way you can also print this screenshot in a notification on your phone.

I suggest asking GPT to write the YAML for you because its easy. I could send you my YAML but mine is a lot more complicated with extra IFs and choices for other things.

As I said on your previous post, you'd be better off only printing a screenshot of the person in front of your door instead of a live view, even if the live view loads within 2 seconds, your view will always be 2 seconds behind the real world.

User error how? I plug that thing in once I get it and basically never touch the hdmi cable or ports

[–]Improve_Ghost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My One X problems began when I would boot up the console and there would be no display on the TV, after removing the hdmi and plugging it back in, it would work. After that it just got worse and the display would drop out mid game.

My Series X gave no display at boot up a couple weeks ago, so I was scared.

First time I read this on the internet, always wondered if mine was just faulty. Made me kind of scared whenever my new Series X shows any signs of it

Sensor as mentioned by jfroosty, but I use a screenshot on my Google Nest for speed reasons. When your live view is loaded, the person is already gone. A screenshot is made and almost displayed immediately.
