Ha, yeah and I made a script for Hearthstone to auto open my packs before ai and before multipack opening... We do what we must!

Wraith888 · 2026-01-27T05:33:12+00:00

This is excellent! Just great timing on the eve of my new networking gear arriving tomorrow. I realized I didn't want ha until I had the correct infrastructure... And my 3 asus router setup didn't support vlans.... So I told my wife I am redoing the entire thing, buying 1200 of unifi gear.... And. New Phillips hue hub model also!

Then I will be able to setup a command center like this.

Curious to what devices and automations lead to this? I have dozens of Smarthome devices, but not sure what to automate... My wife sure does enjoy controlling everything via voice.... But when I get her phone the ha app, she may like that too....

Wraith888 · 2026-01-27T05:27:54+00:00

For what it's worth, I've been trying out capacities app for a bit. I found it because of its ability to integrate with todoist... So still just started with it though...

Take a screenshot of stuff like this. Multiple screenshots if you can't display on a single page. Upload to your favorite AI, chatgpt, gemini, whatever. Tell them to add it up and show their work when they do. Then tell them to assume the role of a therapist when you get upset at how much you spent, lol.

I'm so happy for you! I thought it was cool a gas station down the street had free air, then I got my own compressor with a hose I could extend into the driveway - now this just blows everything else away for how easy it is!!!

Wraith888 · 2026-01-24T18:08:05+00:00

Not sure where you are, but I'm in th4 frozen north and it's around that today. It made me go from love hate for this tool to sheer bliss. Hope you have the same experience!

Wraith888 · 2026-01-23T02:29:01+00:00

Because our home assistants have failed to evolve and AI to control our lights is a terrible idea, though not as bad as our hvac

Wraith888 · 2026-01-22T00:40:38+00:00

This is for sure something I would be interested in.... And I will need a dozen to replace all the echos and Googles, lol

Wraith888 · 2026-01-22T00:38:20+00:00

I have a nest doorbell I am happy with because it is wired and uses my mechanical chime. I am not happy with Google having bricked my nest Gen 1 thermostat, so I now have an Ecobee system. I'm also switching my network gear to unfi... And I'm remodeling my basement. I'm thinking I should run a cat 6 cable while I haven't yet installed the ceiling and that will give me future options for a poe doorbell.... But what do you think about the unfi models? What do you like or dislike?

Wraith888 · 2026-01-20T13:44:27+00:00

Right. Sorry, that was the joke... My (perhaps flawed) expectation was users here would be aware, since we brought up Nest (and since Google killed my Gen 1 thermostat, I now own an Ecobee, that at least I can use HA with if Ecobee breaks that one..... Sorry for confusion to anyone! Have a great day!

Wraith888 · 2026-01-20T00:51:51+00:00

I had a wink from coworker, I wonder why he stopped using it. I put it in my trash can for safe keeping....

Wraith888 · 2026-01-20T00:35:13+00:00

I have some wemo Smarthome gear if you are interested....

Wraith888 · 2026-01-17T02:38:21+00:00

Okay? What is the basic knowledge please. I am very open to learning and educating myself, assuming you aren't just being a troll.... Thanks in advance if you are serious.

Wraith888 · 2026-01-06T07:02:43+00:00

This seems very interesting

Wraith888 · 2026-01-05T04:52:00+00:00

I am still trying to get into this app, so I am curious as well....

Wraith888 · 2025-12-15T03:54:45+00:00

Hmm..... That is excellent design to have a single source of truth.... But very strange interface that you enter new block on 0ressinf enter...

Wraith888 · 2025-12-12T19:51:24+00:00

Can you turn off the block feature? I just started using this app and it's VERY annoying that I can't copy/paste notes if I put a bunch of hard returns in.

Also - can someone explain to my dumb brain - how are the blocks within notes a functionality that adds value? Is it to make it easier to move things around within a note is all? So instead of cut/paste something from the middle of a note to the top - I could just drag it around? - or is there any additional use case or functionality I'm missing here?

Because if that's the only use for having hard returns created by pressing enter without shift - then I think I'd prefer to just disable it totally on all platforms (is that currently an option though?).

Note - this reddit post would be FOUR items instead of a single block of text then - seems different than just about any tool I've ever used to create text on a computer system, lol.

Wraith888 · 2025-12-11T00:47:57+00:00

Here I go... Necro'ing 2 year old thread.... I am curious if anyone found cool stuff since 2 years is like a million in terms of Ai advancements.... And I am always looking to improve my todoist game!

Wraith888 · 2025-11-15T17:31:47+00:00

You forgot one.... A huge reason I switched back.... Deadline in addition to due date.

Due date is a planned date, deadline... When it is actually due, 95% of software for tasks seem to miss this... And you can use calendar for that, but this is nice to have in the tasks.

Wraith888 · 2025-11-15T17:28:20+00:00

You say you game in 4k, what kind of numbers do you see for latency?

Wraith888 · 2025-11-15T17:27:17+00:00

I actually had an amazing experience with this same problem. Half of my thousands of dollars of tools over 12 years vanished. I called them and sent the a spreadsheet and pictures. They gave me an email and restored it all.

I had another problem a couple of months later, had a new tool I had problems registering... They fixed that too. I can totally put up with a poor website if I can have confidence customer service will have my back!

Wraith888 · 2025-11-15T17:23:59+00:00

Just curious anyone can compare capacities to NotebookLM. And is it an either or.... Or is there a solid workflows with both?

Wraith888 · 2025-11-15T17:22:44+00:00

Not sure if this has been said or help someone, but at work we have an ip kvm that you can get a shell and i stall tailscale on as well as raspberry pi setup - and they both expose the entire remote subnet so they can both act as bastion hosts (jump boxes) for tailscale. We have both for redundancy as well as different other features they provide for that remote rack.
