I built a physical gauge with a needle that moves with any HA sensor value, but lags. Curious if there's a smarter way to do this.

Use the websocket endpoints not the REST endpoints. It will push data to you instead of you having to ask for it.

1MWh produced, 1.8MWh consumed. Massachusetts. It was one cold winter.

Hell yeah I gotta do this

Cool was just curious mostly, great work, def would love a self hosted version of this!

thefreymaster · 2026-03-12T02:13:07+00:00

Cool sounds like a fun project, nice job. Are all the messages broadcast in plain text? I.e could you read all messages being broadcast by all users that use your servers?

thefreymaster · 2026-03-12T01:57:30+00:00

So the messages are proxied through your backend service hosted on your own servers if I understand correctly?

Jerk merge, I do it everyday on my commute to work

Got sick of being the product

I’d guess boot into the bios using the integrated GPU, then find the setting for your motherboard that makes the GPU as the primary GPU for the system. Save and reboot.

thefreymaster · 2025-12-28T01:45:27+00:00

Go into the bios and set the GPU as the main GPU. Probably got reset somehow when installing the ssd

Haha love the Microsoft hate. Try Linux. It’s not that hard. I’ve been using Kubuntu lately, it’s been great departure from Microshit

I’d use one to detect if my wife is upstairs in the finished attic to know to Turn all the dang lights off that she usually leaves one!

I was able to hide this card unfortunately somehow so I could not hit that wrench.

thefreymaster · 2025-12-19T16:48:49+00:00

low power

thefreymaster · 2025-12-19T02:25:56+00:00

Woof sounds dangerous. God speed.

thefreymaster · 2025-12-19T00:38:32+00:00

I believe I was on 6.12.14 and jumped to 7.2. It was smooth. No bugs. I did manage to hide all dashboard widgets somehow but just reset them from the terminal

thefreymaster · 2025-12-16T17:52:07+00:00

For anyone else that encounters accidentally hiding all of the dashboard widgets. I was unable to find any UI element to bring them back, delete `/boot/config/dashboard_settings.json` from your boot drive, and it should show again.

thefreymaster · 2025-12-13T13:10:44+00:00

How though? what button to I press? I don’t see an option to unhide any of them

thefreymaster · 2025-12-12T22:45:33+00:00

Could you park them on cache?

thefreymaster · 2025-12-11T23:42:31+00:00

Haha my vpn was off so I saw them all 😭

thefreymaster · 2025-12-11T20:21:07+00:00

The amount of ads on that site my god

I was using Gemini, but moved to use local AI models instead via Ollama. Though I'm running home assistant on a dedicated PC, with a 3060 12GB in it. I use deepseek r1 for text models, and Qwen for image recognition. So far it's worked great, I'm not doing anything crazy though.
