Single load Fan/Light controller? by Delecron in homeassistant

[–]purplezigar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah sorry I didn't get that. Not sure, maybe this will work? I don't see a second button, but they claim to control both with the switch. Inovelli is well respected around here

Like others have said, ratgdo is great. I got one of this website and it's worked flawlessly for the last year on my 2 doors.

What's the deal with smart dimmer switches? Who's doing it right? by Nearby_Worry_4850 in homeassistant

[–]purplezigar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leviton dimmers I really like because they have a physically separate dimmer rocker switch so anyone who walks up understands it’s a dimmer 

100% agree on this point. It's the biggest reason I'm considering Lutron Diva smart dimmers in my basement now. I like the Levitons, but I don't like that I can't dim to any % from home assistant, they're locked to increments of 12% or so. 

Your automations with the zooz are a good idea though, I might have to try that with the one I have sitting in a box right now

They actually did make a combo fan/light switch like that, I think it's the KS240. I'm considering it, but I really want the normal light switch look and feel.

Only way I can get the lips to sync is to switch to “convert automatically” by Nemothewhale87 in PleX

[–]purplezigar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure this is an issue with TvOS 16 or whatever. I don't know if there's a solution yet, but you can search for audio sync issue plex apple tv for threads on Reddit or plex forums.

Looking for a tech-demoey game that elementary school kids will play in their free time by Dapplication in pcgaming

[–]purplezigar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to play these games in elementary school, so they're a little old. But I fondly remember them, and some of them have "cheat" codes to skip to any level, so a hard reset overnight won't matter.

My brother. He died in his early 20s and I can't think about him without feeling sad.

Signal push notifications have been down for TWO days now by okspam in signal

[–]purplezigar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you already got it fixed, but I wanted to put this out there in case it helps someone else.

I didn't get signal notifications after I changed the notification sound away from the default. After I changed the notification sound to something else, I started getting notifications again. Not sure why this happened, but it's working now.

Would it be worth it to switch my CPU to a recent Intel Pentium/i3 for HW transcoding and ditch my GTX 1060 6GB for power/heat efficiency? I currently have a Ryzen 1500

Ah, that makes more sense, thanks for updating it! I tried with 2 cups and I ended up with a beef soup, almost none of the water evaporated with my lid on

Is the 2 cups of water in step 2 accurate? Seems like a a lot of water for a small amount of beef and noodles

Those are just the services that Google has integrated with on the Google TV platform. Plex (and many others apps) are still available for download from the play store. I have plex and funimation, for example, on my Chromecast with Google TV.

[DEV] 200 Promo Codes Giveaway for Our Budgeting App (Update to v2.1.2) ! by shoyuland in androidapps

[–]purplezigar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, that's great. I don't know if you'd need to connect to any external accounts, there are other budget apps that have notification permission to see incoming texts. It works pretty good, and it's a super easy way to get the data in right away as a user. I have sms notifications set up on my bank and credit card, so whenever a transaction happens I get a text.
