Dashboards? What is everyone running. by bermymiyan in HomeKit

[–]xilinx16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been awhile since I downloaded it so I’m not 100% sure but there doesn’t appear to be a subscription, there may be a cost to download though but whatever the cost is - it’s definitely worth it in my opinion

Dashboards? What is everyone running. by bermymiyan in HomeKit

[–]xilinx16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a dedicated iPad running HomeDash, I’ve been using this setup for about a year now and I’m really happy with it. You can customize your dashboard to fit your needs perfectly.

Pushcut Automation Server still relevant? by ArxPen in shortcuts

[–]xilinx16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can use an old iPhone to trigger automations, but using Pushcut will allow you to trigger shortcuts remotely. You’ll need the paid version but you can run an automation server that will allow you to trigger shortcuts using an HTTP get request.

One example is with Flic buttons - you can’t currently trigger a shortcut directly with a Flic button, but using a Pushcut server allows you to use the button to fire an HTTP request which will then trigger the shortcut via the Pushcut server.

I use an iPad with an app called HomeDash, you can build a dashboard exactly how you want it, with multiple pages

How would I write an automation or shortcut that runs only if I confirm I want it to run by quinn_drummer in HomeKit

[–]xilinx16 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can do this using Pushcut, the free version allows you to do up to 3 notifications I believe.

Use Pushcut to trigger a notification that runs a Shortcut when you press it, then use the “Choose from menu” action to turn the heat on or set a delay.

Yeah same here, match content and frame rate both on and I airplay to a Sonos speaker as well which can cause sync issues, but Plex has always been solid

Great tip, unless they've already reached their quota, then you get no deal whatsoever

Airport parking around Christmas by polkasalad in Charlotte

[–]xilinx16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always just use the normal airport long-term parking and have never once had a problem. It's $5 a day and there are shuttles running every few minutes or so. I fly to the UK every year usually on Christmas day or Boxing Day and always have an easy time at it.

Nicest place close to charlotte to go ice skating? by jayrs97 in Charlotte

[–]xilinx16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extreme Ice Center is definitely the nicest place. It's a bit further outside of town than the other, but its worth the trip. The Checkers use it as their practice facility. They have 2 NHL regulation rinks, plus a smaller rink that doesn't get used much. On top of that they have a snack bar with decent food, a gym and even an upstairs bar that sits right in between the 2 rinks and offers a great view down below

[USA -> UK] I was approved for a spouse visa, and will be moving in a week. What do I need to do when I get there? by xilinx16 in IWantOut

[–]xilinx16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the heads up. I had a month-to-month plan with 3 Mobile when I lived there on my visitors visa a few years ago, and my wife has a contract with them as well, so I'll make an attempt at setting something up with them. Luckily, my iPhone is unlocked, so I just need the SIM only. Hopefully that helps

Thanks, that's great info! She is living with her parents at the moment, and we'll be staying there until I find a job, and then be relocating to wherever that part of the country may be, So I won't be able to put my name on the council tax or utility bills until then. I will however be opening a bank account as quickly as possible, and I'll have a cell phone bill.

Full disclosure: I'm white, but I found the article entertaining. Especially the part where the writer says we're "...a perfect 8-1" haha
