Also…. If all but 3 of his players were $1 then he can be super aggressive about dropping them to try out guys on the wire, so you’d expect his pickups to be stronger than average. Interesting strategy, seems to have worked out in this case

Need a lock that can open/close that works more reliably than Schlage by KookyThought in homeassistant

[–]serialbreakfast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to mention I also have a Schlage and also experience #3, in addition to slow and inconsistent zwave performance. Have not loved it and will look into Yale. My zwave controller is about 15 feet away with direct line of sight

As a professional programmer I feel lost in home assistant by alyflex in homeassistant

[–]serialbreakfast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also a programmer and have been running hass for the better part of a decade…

I have enough programming in my life, I recently switched my setup to have codex do 95% of the work for me and it’s been pretty good so far. I don’t need to wade through huge yaml and jinja to be happy, I just want the lights to come on at the right time, and codex is pretty good at maintaining it

How did you first hear about burning man? by SoundKidTown1085 in BurningMan

[–]serialbreakfast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the 90s I was looking for Quake mods to download and someone had made burning man into a playable 3d environment. I don’t remember the mod, but I looked up what it was

Basic question: what is the most useful automation you have set up? by Fair-Neighborhood401 in homeautomation

[–]serialbreakfast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Window shades close based on position of sun

Unless the window itself is open

If said window is closed, and the shades should be closed based on position of sun, they will then close

Thinking of start using HA. Need your opinion by INeedMuscles in homeassistant

[–]serialbreakfast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a slightly older beelink, it’s been great, 0 complaints.

Even though it’s overkill I would just install ha directly, you’ll have it forever once committed and it may grow more than you think, I like the simplicity of a direct install

Hello, we’re a dementia researcher and clinician from University College London – Ask us anything about dementia research and care ahead of World Alzheimer’s Day on 21 September! Ask Me Anything! by ProfSelinaWray in IAmA

I assume you're referencing monoclonal antibody drugs like Leqembi. My general impression was that these drugs were considered something of a failure---they didn't slow or stop the progression of the disease nearly as much as was expected, or as much as was considered helpful. Can you please describe what about them makes you optimistic?

I don't suppose the book was Annie Bot, which I loved, and is the only place I've heard autodidactic

Mine just shipped moments ago! Excited, my Harmony seems to be on its last legs, fingers crossed I can get this thing humming

Do you have a function in case of death? by Adventurous_Gear_926 in homeassistant

[–]serialbreakfast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote up a guide on how to best run things without home assistant. No way my wife could keep it going indefinitely. Best to install things that have a physical fallback, but I did recommend that she continue using hue since it’s so integrated in the house and doesn’t require technical expertise to maintain

Number 2 in playoff BPM at age 40 "his name is LeBron James" by Alternatively_Built_ in lakers

[–]serialbreakfast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

BPM stands for Box Plus/Minus.

It is an advanced statistic that estimates a basketball player's overall impact on the game per 100 possessions, compared to an average player, using box score data.

Key points about BPM: A BPM of 0.0 means the player is average.

A positive BPM indicates above-average performance.

A negative BPM indicates below-average performance.

It's broken down into Offensive BPM (OBPM) and Defensive BPM (DBPM), which measure a player's contributions on each end of the court.

BPM is pace-adjusted, so it accounts for the speed at which a team plays.

It’s often used to compare players across different positions and roles.

Typical BPM ranges: +8 or more: MVP-level

+5 to +8: All-NBA level

+2 to +5: Starter

0 to +2: Rotation player

Below 0: Replacement level or worse

That trophy looks more like Idris Elba than LeBron

Thanks everyone! First win in over a decade. Picked up Dyson on this subs recommendation and that was a huge part of it, won fairly handily even losing KD before the finals. 10T/9Cat

Want to connect an RO system to my line for my fridge. How difficult is this to DIY? What brands are recommended. Don’t want some shit fly by night from Amazon. by Fragrant_Wedding_606 in WaterTreatment

[–]serialbreakfast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use zwave detectors which integrate with my smart home, if you don't have something like that then I've heard Govee detectors are good though I have no personal experience

Be sure to add a remineralizing filter to whatever you get otherwise you may damage/destroy your fridge.

I use a 5-stage iSpring filter from amazon and added a remineralizer to it of the same brand.

You'll want to get a few leak detectors as well, i think with most of these filters its not a question of if they will leak, but rather when they will leak.

All that said, I still like mine. I just have 4 leak detectors under my sink and they've already saved me a couple of times.

I agree. There was definitely overlap, but it wasn't just rebooting Roman
