  • Oh yeah, statistics gathering is something I think is generally a bit underrated. Many people see it as “gimmicky” compared to the automation features, but whether it’s statistics about electricity water or air quality, I’ve found that there’s so much insight to be gained about what’s happening in your home over the course of a day.

    And since you’re talking about sleep quality: One thing I’ve recently found out is that there’s a addon for HA that can calculate the absolute humidity based on the temperature and relative humidity. That way you can figure out if opening the windows will increase or decrease the relative humidity and by how much BEFORE opening the windows.
    Figured this out after trying to reduce the relative humidity of the bedroom by opening the windows and accidentally letting more humidity in despite the relative outside humidity being lower than on the inside.




  • It’s great that these devices finally exist. For the longest time your only option for handheld gaming was Nintendo, or maybe Sony for a short period of time, so I always went with Nintendo as a companion device to my PC.

    When the Switch launched, I started wishing for a PC with that form factor, unrealistic as that was at the time. At some point in time I even got hardware-banned from anything online because I dared to install some things on it in order to transfer my save files between PC and Switch. Even lost the ability to download a game I had already bought but not yet installed.

    Thankfully, around that time the Steam Deck was announced, and the only time I booted the Switch afterwards was to dump all my games and saves.
