Raspberry pi/small NUC with a screen, in a digital kiosk mode. Just load a static html file with some js to update the clock. No keyboard, no touch input, no way to break it. Connect to it via ssh over tailscale or wireguard VPN to update the HTML with the notes you'd like to display. This way if internet goes down, the clock still works and whatever was displayed wrt messages stays displayed, and you don't have to worry about the increased overhead of home assistant changes or updates breaking things. It will remain consistent since it's just HTML and js. If you want less technical family members to be able to update the display...idk, seems like a headache.

Cool! Any interesting things in the tech stack, OP? I've been meaning to set something like this up for my family, local only.

I use newpipe x sponsorblock, invidious, and pinhole as well, but it's worth pointing out to those unfamiliar- pihole does nothing for YouTube ads. Pihole is great for sites that add google ads or random junk to their pages, it has no ability to block ads that come from the same domain as a sites content because it is DNS based.

It feels like waterboarding though.

Don't use TP up your nose for a different reason: TP is designed to disintegrate when wet. You end up with toilet paper chunks stuck up there.

If you manage to hijack an airplane using a credit card sized multitool, honestly you should be given that plane and a medal.

Be thankful you don't have the drug ads. They're an infestation down here. The companies advertise the crap out of a drug that costs the patient 3-4k+/mo, it enters the doctors subconscious so they're more likely to recommend to the patients, pharma company makes bank, the lawsuits roll in right around the time the copyright on the brand name ends (they're all shit drugs and barely more effective than placebo, yet with knarly side effects), they close it down and let the generic manufacturers fight it out while they pump the next shit pill or shot. Rinse and repeat.

Sports betting needs to go too, but I bet they'll just move those into shows like big tobacco did.

Indeed. Everything is stored in plain markdown files you can move around and edit elsewhere. I'd like to use a FOSS alternative when I can, but second best is something I can easily jump ship from and not lose data.

Unfortunately it doesn't, at least not by default.
