Yeah, not a real problem, because op is a bot. Look at their post history, and how many posts they made in the last hour.

Yeah, I was confused about some lamp always being on when I woke up, and realised I’d replaced it’s smart socket with one that had previously been used for a coffee machine. Deleting and repairing sounds like wisdom.

Love warehouse 13! Like eureka, it’s kinda silly, but good heartwarming fun. Definitely good inspiration for dnd campaigns. I’ve always wanted to rip it off but set in planescape. Sending players to different planes to pick up weird artifacts without blowing their covers.

Wouldn’t the speed of a swallow be a intelligence check?

I could imagine attaching a motorised pulley contraption mounted on one (or both) sides of the dishwasher. When you close the door you clip the pulley onto the door, and when it finishes the motor pushes forward and the door pops open.

Awesome!

The wording is “lacks the ability score used by it”, not “lacks proficiency in the ability score”. So, your barbarian and almost all creatures have all six ability scores (although they may be low values, even 0). A table or hatstand does not have a Dexterity score so would automatically fail a save against Fireball.

I had it on a old pc, running in a virtual machine alongside other stuff, but switched to running it as HAOS on its own mini pc. Just felt simpler.

What automation for lights are not working for you? I’ve found my light automations work reliably, but maybe I’m not daring to do something too complicated!

Defintely for me. Trying to make home assistant easy enough to use for family members, guests, etc. is a continued source of frustration. I’ve not had time to try out the new dashboard stuff, so no idea if it actually help, but it’s an area that defintely needs improvement.

Adding devices, casting automations, and writing scripts all work pretty perfectly for my needs. But making a visual effective design for a variety of dashboards for different sized screens is time consuming at best.

Are there many aspects of automating tasks that you think need to be focused on?

Yes, same. I’m just looking for an update every 5/10 minutes, so I can chart the temperature throughout the day.

That’s the one I got, but home assistant only sees the switch, not the temperature.

That looks great!

Sorry, yes, small probe on a longish cable. It’s for measuring temperatures on various pipes and hot water tanks to try and understand our new wood stove central heating a bit better.
