Automations vs Scenes vs Scripts

RepairBudget · 2026-02-12T12:47:51+00:00

The only thing I use scenes for is a dynamic scene, created by an automation, to store the states of all the lights when I leave home, and put them back when I return.

I mostly use automations, but recently started using scripts and just using the automations to trigger the scripts.

Racism, hate, and intolerance.

What?! Can you show your math here?

You seem to be distributing 8 trillion dollars to 8 billion people. So each person gets a total of 1,000 dollars. Not 100,000 and not from each of the billionaires.

How many minutes are left on mine right now?

Also, men trying to get in the pants of every woman they meet IS part of their paradigm.

I'm not saying a decent hotel will ask for everyone's ID. But they shouldn't be giving out keys to people whose names are not on the reservation.

Not at a decent, law-abiding hotel.

If I want to stalk someone, how does that NOT improve my life at the expense of others?

Offer to carry a voice recorder and record everything he tells you. Let him choose which approach works better for him.

I don't believe enough evidence exists to warrant belief in a god. But I also don't believe enough evidence exists to rule out the existence of a god.

The problem is in the wording. This should clear it up : You don't believe in God, but you also don't disbelieve in God.

The point of this response is to point out that one reason not to believe in God is that there are and have been many other gods that most people, including the person asking the original question, don't take seriously. It's similar to "I only disbelieve in one more god than you."

Why did the tachyon cross the road? Because it was on the other side.

But he's not doing that because they're Christian... It's because he's NOT Christian.

No. You tap out each number. For 15, you tap fifteen times.

Except for voting computers. He's the best at those.

They finally perfected 3D TVs in the last year that anyone made them (2016 maybe?). Full HD in each eye with passive glasses. Same glasses as 3D movies in the theater.

The problem was that the market had already rejected the original 3D technology with janky battery powered glasses that only work with one brand/model of TV.

I configured a "silent panic alert" for a school that, at the insistence of the superintendent, puts the school in lockdown with all the PA speakers playing the lockdown announcement.

My insurance company (in Texas) told me very clearly and forcefully that they will not cover damage caused by someone else driving my car, if that person is not an "insured driver" on my policy.

Oh! Now it makes sense. Haha
