3·14 hours agoMy hope is that I can use custom sentences to send values to a script or service that, in-turn, will trigger an appdaemon app where I can do all the work in python. I’m not sure about returning the calculated value as a response though.
That’s how I built my harmony hub replacement.

27·21 hours agoIt worked for Microsoft. The month after they started to force install Teams in windows they published user numbers showing how teams had sprinted ahead of Slack by that metric, and the tech press mostly ate it up.

5·22 hours agoIt being dumb was a selling point. I’ve wanted to dump it for ages but my wife used it (mainly for timers and unit conversions) somewhat frequently. But as someone who spends most of her day dealing with problems caused by LLM slop, she refuses to ever use them herself.
I also promised I’d do my best to get Home Assistant Voice set up so it can do math and unit conversions (sans Truthiness engine).

7·9 days agoSo far on my work computer I’ve had a policy to indiscriminately uninstall anything that says copilot. If I hadn’t seen this post I may have nuked it, then spent the afternoon trying to figure out where excel went.

19·11 days agoYes, about everything awful.
But also oil extraction prices are between $15 and $70 per barrel depending on the conditions of the oil fields. And any significant oil extraction rate increase will drive already volatile oil market prices down so far that US oil fields (that average extraction costs of about $40/barrel) will end up shutting down.
