Hey all, anyone know if there are any directions on how to swap out to the assist_satellite from this depreciated sensor? Normally when there is a swap like this, the Home_Assistant folks give us some directions, but I can't find squat on this.

Ad block is NOT piracy. And use Ublock Origin.

Just like when Christopher Tolkien died. No one else was left to be passionate about his father's vision and desires.

Biden shares many of my values and goals, but because he isn't perfectly aligned with my values and goals, I'm voting Trump, a man that shares NONE of my values and goals, as a protest. What could go wrong?

4k80 (midwest.social)

Hey everyone, I recently acquired the 4k77, 4k80, and 4k83. However, the 4k80 one looks grainy. 77 and 83 look clear in comparison. Did I just get a bad copy, or does 4k80 have issues?

Has anyone got Home Assistant to work with an IP phone as a local voice control?

I have a Grandstream GXP 2140, and I cannot get it talking to HA for the functionality. It doesn't have the same settings as the Grandstream pots to IP Phone device from the article.

I have Whisper and Piper installed, and showing up under the Wyoming protocol. I have the IP Phone addon installed, but it never detects my phone.

Assist Widget (midwest.social)

Hey everyone, I've started playing around with Assist to use voice to kick off actions. However, I want to put an Assist widget on my Android home screen. The directions from HA say to open your widgets, go to Home Assistant, then long press the Assist widget. However, when I go to select a widget, there is no Assist widget available.

I have Assist setup and I can access it from the mobile app. But I would like a shortcut so I can quickly access it.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Or is the documentation out of date?

Phone: OnePlus 9, running Android 13.
Hopefully this isn't an OxygenOS issue.

News reports have Reddit making the IPO push this year. Get ready for more DRAMA!

Pay attention boys and girls, this is also what they want to do with over the air broadcasts with the ATSC 3.0 format.

I may not know how the sausage is made, but I do know if it tastes good or not.

CitCon and Pyro (midwest.social)

So if they don't release Pyro at CitizenCon, how far out can they say it will be released without being yet another 2018 announcement?

If they say sometime next year, count on at least 5 years. They really need to be CLOSE with the way they've hyped Pyro.

Google's problem is they reward bringing new product to market, but they don't reward steady stewardship or iteration to improve existing products. That's why you see Google release multiple products that do the same thing.

The big device manufacturers DON'T WANT INTEROPERABILITY. They want you nailed down to their ecosystem and hit you with planned obsolescence. Like most anything else in the economy, they want premium pricing. If you adopt open standards, then you're competing with everyone else but now on price. The majority of device makers don't want to do that. THAT is the problem with the smart home.

So I installed i2p on a Linux Mint VM. I'm able to see i2p sites, but I'm also able to browse clearnet sites, which I thought would not work. Does the default Linux installer configure an exit node by default?
