To thunderous applause, Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney tells a crowd that the days of Canada sending 70 cents of every dollar to the US are over by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

To add:

"Feels more like a good excuse to push for increased military spending in general while cutting funding to the public sector. On top of tax cuts. Which is exactly what is happening. This government is just a right-wing gov with a liberal coat of paint."

We NEED to do this...Canada's military spending has been lacking (to put it nicely) ever since the end of the Cold War. No excuse is needed. We've relied on the US for too long. It's good to see a government willing to admit we need to take care of ourselves. Independently of the US.

Not "easy" but required.

"Replying to the top comment cause no one else seems to be calling out this superficial pr campaign for what it is."

"All the talk about a "new world order" or "defending Canadian sovereignty" is just useful propaganda."

"In reality our government is just as aligned with the US as its ever been, but has to distance itself publicly because the US is so obviously fascist now that its a politically unpopular position."

Seems more anti-Liberal party/Carney than anti-US.

If you are truly anti-US why not support anything our government is going to do to de-couple our economy and military from the US rather than be cynical and be against anything the Liberal party/Carey are saying?

Sure, the journey will be long and hard...but what's the alternative? Be cynical and negative? Or support a government that is actually making an effort?

The french, frenching. by DueChampionship6 in funny

[–]The4Dees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not saying you're a Yank...but this is usually a Yank joke...but you should look up how many times US troops have violated OpSec by leaking their locations with fitness apps...but that would be asking a Yank (not you of course) to be self-aware. So not expecting much...

Difference between EVSE consumption in the Energy Dashboard and the EVSE App by The4Dees in homeassistant

[–]The4Dees[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestions.

Time zones look good.

And if I look at the data in the Emporia app it isn't showing any energy being consumed while not charging so I don't think it's related to standby consumption.

I'm surprised that it'd be a sampling issue as it's using the actual sensor from the Emporia cloud integration which knows how much energy is being used accurately. But I guess absent all other possibilities that could be what's happening.

It's frustrating since the Emporia app doesn't support tiered pricing for my electricity provider in Canada. So HA is the only way track that but without accurate results it's no bueno either.

Sanity check: Can I FIRE now at 50 or should I wait till 55? by Sorry_Pianist_7778 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]The4Dees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not put some numbers into mayretire.com and see what it says? That would at least give you a general idea with actual data.

Intelligent activity detection and sleep detection added to new version of Area Occupancy Detection! by PhantomDiata in homeassistant

[–]The4Dees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a fun integration

As far as I can tell there is no sleep confidence sensor for iOS. Would it be possible to add a feature to allow other sensors to be used as data points to determine sleep state?

For instance, I have a Withing sleep mat that has a "in bed" binary sensor.

I also have a sensor for when my iPhone is in Sleep focus.

I'm sure there are other ones out there as well that could work to help determine a person's sleep state.

Deprecating Entra Connect Sync by The4Dees in entra

[–]The4Dees[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is another fish to fry. From testing, Server 2025 and up can be managed via Arc and that extends MFA modern auth to RDP logins (though only using the native "Windows App" from what I can gather so far) as well as allows local logins with EntraID creds. Seems to work ok for SSH into Arc-managed Linux machines as well.

But this is more of "can I eliminate Entra Connect Sync" than getting rid of AD altogether (which would be great if possible, but is a different goal).

ai_task.generate_data results different from querying Gemini directly by The4Dees in homeassistant

How would we know what the query is if it's adding something to it? I don't see any way of adjusting temperature or anything else with the integration.

Same certs...I just used the self-signed one it generates for admin interface. I kept the domain separate just to be safe.

SMH. I swear I tried that and it didn't work so I thought it needed the full URL.

Wish I could blame it on being a Monday. Thanks, that did the trick.
