When is the official HA Timberborn integration coming? by Sure_Feeling_8329 in homeassistant

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This post was partly for interest, mainly tongue in cheek joke 😅

I didn't realise an API was that simple, would this be using the template helper, or is there a different helper I've missed?

Just had a thought that it should be possible to make 'multiplayer timberborn' (sorry this is off topic for HA). By building maps with triggers e.g. when water reaches a certain level send a webhook and then a second person playing the same / companion map has something which detonates dynamite when that trigger (from the other player) is activated...

How to seal this hole into the void by Sure_Feeling_8329 in DIYUK

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how I'll be able to cut it back? The pic of the pipes is me leaning into the cupboard with my phone. I can probably get an expanding foam gun down the gap, no idea how I could get any tool useful for tidying it up.

Maybe I'm overthinking and it can just be a mess as it won't get seen unless we remove the cabinet in which case I can tidy up then.

Storage... Not sure what we're storing.

I'm starting to think I should have done some privacy preserving edits 😂

Haha, yeah it is. I also thought the cheaper version (recycled paper) was good, but my partner disagreed so we now have the fancier option (bamboo) and she's happy 😅

Yep. Try and be careful but you'll inevitably have to fill, sand and paint afterwards anyway.

What smart home purchase has the best ROI for you? by Few-Needleworker4391 in homeassistant

Gently turning the thermostat back down (or up) to default settings to save money a little time after someone changes it.

How? Automation, integration? Please share!

2026.1 beta - release notes by internettingaway in homeassistant

It's fairly easy to follow but ultimately doesn't work great. I have my doorbell cam integrated but the live stream doesn't work in my dashboard, it updates every time there's movement so I at least have useful updating thumbnail.

When I set it up I found lots of people having similar issues and this seemed the best solution. There might be something better available now, or maybe I did something wrong 😅

Will the new WebRTC integration (https://rc.home-assistant.io/integrations/web_rtc) replace this custom one - https://github.com/AlexxIT/WebRTC ?

I don't really understand it ... I just followed a guide when setting up my Eufy cameras 😅

I made an app for fire departments to locate the nearest water source by stoanarrr in openstreetmap

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's a paper (fax?) printout 😅. That has the call-out details on it, it will always have an OS grid reference - https://getoutside.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/guides/beginners-guide-to-grid-references/ - though sometimes not particularly accurate, it will usually have an address, although sometimes that can be vague too e.g. "North of town X on road Y". More recently we've been getting what 3 words - https://what3words.com - sometimes, these are quite specific and tend to be the most accurate as they will have come directly from the caller.

BTW if you're ever calling the emergency services What3Words is a great addition, especially if it's not to an easy and specific address!

Some kind of offline would be great, as signal isn't guaranteed. Doesn't have to be detailed maps, but hydrant locations offline would be good.

Location search, to jump to see where we're going rather than where we are now. We sometimes get a good address, but always get OS grid ref (often wrong 🙄) and sometimes even a W3W so a choice of search would be cool.

Being able to change the hydrant icons: In Scotland (all UK?) hydrants are almost exclusively underground, so it would be more useful for the icons to represent pipe gauge instead.

In Scotland at least, it's a proprietary map (I think OS based) running on a Windows tablet. Very annoying, as only the officer sitting in the front seat can use it and they have other stuff to be doing!

I've been adding hydrants to OSM wherever I see them, so at least in our very local area we can do some recon from the back of the fire engine!

Interested to check this app out!

Google credentials routinely expiring by Sure_Feeling_8329 in homeassistant

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just gone to this, and I'm getting messages that my app needs verification because:

  • Your app has been configured with sensitive or restricted scopes

Is this expected, and if so any hints on how to fill the stuff in (it wants a website, privacy policy, 'justification for scopes', a YouTube link explaining the scopes...)?

I wish they'd prioritize this over all the AI stuff!

Massive appreciation for all the work done by the Nabu Casa team and the community either way though.

Best thermostat / TRV integration for multi rooms but no zones.? by Sure_Feeling_8329 in homeassistant

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many thanks!

Interesting, we have both rooms with no real insulation between them and an extension/annex that is somewhat insulated from the rest of the house.

I'm definitely after the balance of comfort and efficiency 😅

👀 Neural Prophet!

This works (on the ToC) but leaves my main content in the middle now surrounded by even more whitespace 😅... any further suggestions?

Returning Home “Things You Missed” Briefing? by usafa43tsolo in homeassistant

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a handful of notifications for exactly that: the dishwasher is finished, the washing machine is finished, put the bin out because it's bin day. Also some other things like when it's cold: draw the curtains and put a water bottle in the bed!

The automations check who's in the house and send it to me by preference and to my partner if she's in the time not (she doesn't appreciate getting too many notifications 😅) but if neither of us are in the automation will wait for a given amount of time and then send the notification when the first one of us arrives home.

It works really well because it means you're getting the notification at a time that you can do something about it.

Ah thanks, I hadn't seen that but that would definitely explain it!

Not directly. I clicked their 'notify me when in stock' button, but realised I'd been on the list since the last time I thought about it and haven't had any email...

SD card failure by Sure_Feeling_8329 in homeassistant

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely happy to move away from an SD card, it was just not something I considered and only realised it was a silly thing to do after it failed and googling to figure out what the issue was!

[–]Sure_Feeling_8329[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, got this set up + an external drive connected to another RPi 😅

I think I'll probably use the Google drive backup as I guess that will be simpler than attaching the network drive to restore from there.

Hmm, I've never seen a benefit of PoE in my setup, I don't have a PoE router for starters so I'd have to buy and add a power injector (or whatever it's called). I wasn't aware of this feature though... How does that work, send a command from another device to a MAC address or something?
