Software developer in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Dad to 2 kids.
Find me on the Fediverse in other places:
A person’s state becomes the name of the zone when they’re in them.
In the current version of Home Assistant, if a person is in two overlapping zones, what happens? It’s possible to be in that state today.
I suppose it doesn’t really matter though. I’ve named all my home zones similarly: home1, home2, etc. It would be easy enough to check for a zone where the object_id starts with “home”
I…honestly thought I just did that. I want to have an irregularly-shaped zone. I don’t see why they couldn’t logically be grouped, you just aren’t able to do it right now.
Anyway, thanks for reading what I typed.
I am pretty sure I’m not confused. I want to group zones together so they can be used in automation triggers and I can change the group’s membership and not have to change every automation trigger. The group’s state should indicate the number of person entities that were in any zone in the group.
I’m not talking about areas at all.
Just to be clear, I don’t believe grouping zones is currently possible. It’s just a want I have.
You don’t get the choice to use more than one zone as your official “home” zone though, do you?
Like when you create a zone, it’s a circle. It has a radius. I want a zone that is an arbitrary shape, so I compose it out of several smaller zones. I want to formally make it a single zone in Home Assistant by grouping them. Currently you can’t add zones to groups or create a zone with type: group
or anything like that.
I wish the web interface let you sort the sub categories both ways. I have a series of subcategories of Year/month that I’m using as a journal and the longer I keep writing, the further have to scroll down :/
I don’t think my kids have ever used a Windows machine. I have a couple of machines at home that both run Linux Mint and they use Chromebooks at school. There is not much software that they need that is not either a web page or also available natively.
If you fired a gun past an MRI machine, could it conceivably catch the bullets? I am currently assuming that significant deflection is absolutely possible with such a powerful magnet.
I remember this thread! Before I saw this comment, I had already gone to look it up again:

My ADHD would not allow me to function without reminders.
Best side effect of the insulated bottles is not having to use a coaster because they don’t sweat.
Not sure I could get used to using transparent bags for dog poop.
I’m totally going to try this.
Thanks for this! I spent the better part of the last hour going through the older videos on that channel. Awesome stuff.
I still use Windows for work, but the last version I used on any of my personal computers was XP.
I remember running Slackware and having to recompile the kernel for just about any hardware you added. I configured a box to be used as a router before routers were something you could get commonly at Best Buy.
I was taking comp. sci. at university and all our work was done on Sparc workstations. Having a Unix-like machine at home was a great help during that time
Navidrome is still the best music server, even with all of its limitations. For what it’s worth, the developer is currently working on features intended to support multiple music libraries. It’s going to happen eventually.
Does nextcloud deck have recurring tasks yet? I didn’t think it did.
+1 for long-ass backup script. First dump the databases with the appropriate command. Currently, I have only MariaDB and Postgres instances. Then, I use Borg to backup the database dumps and the docker volumes.
Database SQL dumps compress very well. I haven’t had any problems yet
Points for imagination! That’s somebody’s next album cover.
