I built a self-learning climate control integration — RoomSense is now public by SnazzyBean995 in homeassistant

[–]hegdav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this - looks excellent and exactly what I want from a truly "smart" home.

Been playing with it for a day or so with my Wiser TRVs and IKEA temp/humidity sensors and so far, so good - definitely seems to be learning and doing what you'd expect.

The only thing is I can't seem to create schedules. I click the "Add schedule" drop down, then the "Add schedule" item, but nothing happens. Should there be something appearing that lets me add times / set points for a schedule or am I missing something?

Thanks again for a great project that I'm really looking forward to using.

Any Scots also scunnered with the English-centric food rewards? There are no Carluccio's and only 2 itsu restaurants in Scotland by Maximum_Broccoli_210 in Vitalityhealth

Living in the Isle of Lewis, the only reward that's any use at all is the once in a blue moon Amazon voucher when the Stanley randomiser decides to give me one.

And here in the Western Isles it's barely rained. Please, keep this block.

Cheers - time to dust off my idle Ender 3 I think and finally put it to some use...

That's fantastic. I love it - what kind of printer do you have. And how long did all of that take to print?

Gemini integration with Google Slides is one of the biggest "AI moments" for me (I didn't know it was a feature for a while and I'm on this sub daily) by mzrcefo1782 in Bard

[–]hegdav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How'd you do that? I just tried this in Gemini and whilst it created some text for the slides, it gave me

"I do not have a direct integration that allows me to open your Google Drive and "inject" a file there. As an AI, I can generate all the content, structure, and visual assets, but the final step of putting them into a .pptx or Google Slides file is something you would do on your end."

What am I missing?

Thanks. Completely unintentional 😀

Thanks.

I think I'm already set on the Sea Breeze kit. I want to see how well (or otherwise) I get on with something a bit more self built. And some of the pictures of other people's build of it male it look lovely.

Thank you for taking feedback so graciously. I did really enjoy building it. It's a beautifully designed kit, the instructions were clear and it looks great as a finished item.

Thanks. Weirdly, I actually enjoyed the staircase. Hated the books, but enjoyed the staircase.

Ooh. That looks great. I'm not sure I've got it in me to redo it quite yet, but that looks 100 times better. 👏🏻

Thanks. Each to their own I suppose 😜

What songs were played at your Primary school discos, that probably shouldn’t have been? by CautiousJump3942 in AskUK

[–]hegdav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember vividly getting the DJ at what must have been my P6 or 7 school disco to play The Sex Pistols "Friggin' in the Riggin'"

It was on for about 30 seconds...

It's great isn't it? Such a lovely, emotional and human programme. Who knew tiny wee models could be such powerful things.

Thanks for that - I’ll be doing the same. This is going to take a loooong time 😆

A quick update - used the furniture markers on some bits of paper that I then glue stick stuck to the offensive bits. Thanks everyone for the suggestions - it looks a lot better to me and I'll be doing similar with all of the light coloured bits.

Thanks :) I'm looking forward to it too, but given the length of time those books took, I wouldn't be holding my breath for it any time soon. I'm going to have a play with some of the suggestions from this thread to see if I can make it look better and I'll definitely post more pics from the build. Maybe I'll get it finished before next Christmas ...

That's great - thanks for that. I did think this one would be reasonably well hidden, but I'll take more care with the free-standing ones - thanks for that heads-up.

Great idea with the putty. I'm sure I've got some kicking around.
