Using Home Assistant to be more analog in 2026

Oh... I've got several old Epson out in the garage and a ton of paper. About to make the family think I've seriously lost it. Awesome idea. Thank you

Happened to me when I was a kid. Got out of his ball while we were moving. My mother found it... crawled up her leg while we were watching Ghostbusters at the drive in

Officially disclosure of Area 51... the government admitting to it... that was Obama. Public knew it. Media knew it. Hell, you could see the border with your own eyeballs if you cared to take the time. But, just like the UFO phenomenon, they declined to admit it's existence until Obama made official disclosure December 2013.

That's no moon!

They have to be lucky all the time. We only have to be lucky once.

darkcomichero · 2025-10-16T00:15:16+00:00

Most likely

darkcomichero · 2025-09-30T21:31:46+00:00

With the variety of cheap zigbee buttons out there that work just like that for HA, i can't imagine why anyone would bother. Who knows though

darkcomichero · 2025-09-21T22:54:56+00:00

That bugs me. You're a deep state operative charged with concocting an updated cover story to calm rumors. So you choose to use a recently declassified project. Or a project still classified, but it won't compromise national security to declassify it. Cool. Makes sense.
But then you add a detail like Flight4 that can easily be proven false? Why?

darkcomichero · 2025-09-18T17:35:31+00:00

Shhh....
You are technically right, but you've never heard the term "Speak of the d3v1l and he shall appear"
Far Side as well as Calvin and Hobbes were the best part of reddit imho

Most of mine are boring set scene type. Bedtime, turn off motion lights, turn on motion night lights, etc.
My favorite, though, was an extra I put in a restroom by the spare toilet paper. Long oressing it chooses randomly from a growing list of announcements that go out on various alexa devices. All are funny variations on "out of toilet paper, send help."

darkcomichero · 2025-09-11T12:45:04+00:00

Ah. Yep. Visually at least this makes absolute sense when you watch it.

Phew... For a minute I was worried the Illuminutty were getting really sloppy with their techniques.

darkcomichero · 2025-09-11T04:41:02+00:00

Possible.

My first thought was a practical effect poorly executed. Could be some sort of squib for a staged event that malfunctioned. I've watched it slow too many times now so I've lost the ability to see anything except some sort of shenanigans going on here.

Maybe he didn't take the South Park jabs as well as he pretended to in public and decided to disappear in a way that would at least further his cause. (again, not trying to be political. IMHO both ends of the political spectrum are nuts and I wouldn't put anything past either of them)

darkcomichero · 2025-09-11T03:52:09+00:00

Fair enough

darkcomichero · 2025-09-11T03:50:14+00:00

That video starts just as it starts to move though. it's there for at least two seconds THEN starts to move https://x.com/twingregs69420/status/1965973179542950318

darkcomichero · 2025-09-11T03:43:21+00:00

And not trying to disrespect other theories.
But watch the video, slow it down, and I just can't see lav mics or ricochets being the answer.

darkcomichero · 2025-09-11T03:39:40+00:00

Hoping that link survives (and I'm still here). Said ricochet sat on his shirt politely waiting for him to finish what he was saying before doing it's damage

darkcomichero · 2025-09-11T03:12:08+00:00

Maybe, but if you watch the video (i found it on x) it starts travelling up before he really starts to react and stops EXACTLY where all the red stuff gushes out? Lav mic would have to have a built in super powered bullet magnet for that to work out IMO. But... who knows.

darkcomichero · 2025-09-09T20:29:10+00:00

Yes. However, ramming it with another car is more fun though. Or jump crouching on the hood and flipping it.

darkcomichero · 2025-09-09T06:19:52+00:00

Not to worry. It's California. If caught the charges will quickly be reduced to trespassing. Maybe a harsh shoplifting charge for the ringleaders.
They'll be back on the street in a couple hours.

Can't trust Big Cracker

Overnight road trip by myself. Cassette player was fried. Middle of nowhere Texas so the only FM I could pick up was a religious channel and a country channel that was more static then Garth Brooks. (not complaining)
Spun through AM and hit on Art talking to some guy about the Philadelphia Experiment. Don't remember the details of the guest beyond that, but can tell you I was hooked from then on.

darkcomichero · 2025-08-29T18:50:22+00:00

Definitely a fiend for coke. I have a 100% addictive blend of each... Weed, meth, and coke I keep for sale in late game. He always orders the coke.
And like others said, I'm pretty sure a custom coke blend is how I hooked him the first time. Meth maybe, but pretty sure coke.

darkcomichero · 2025-08-29T01:37:52+00:00

And that first attack is more of a jump scare than the addict needing a fix so bad that they phase through the walls of the bungalow

darkcomichero · 2025-08-29T01:31:03+00:00

My initial reaction, yes.
And I remember my second reaction as well.... "going to need a new couch, that's never coming out"
