Good to see the Dutch were able to seize a lot of blocks from the sea!

Do they? The IKEA ones are rated for 3680W, which is plenty even for an appliance on a dedicated 220V 16A circuit.

They're much easier to use if you stick them to the wall using the included round sticker, then you can just twist the body of the sensor against the wall

I have 12 of the Aqara's deployed in my house. Initial setup was frustrating for some (they would lose connection after a day), but now that my Zigbee network is a little more solid (the Aqara's don't seem to use IKEA smart plugs as routers) I don't have any issues.

I enjoyed my Arcs campaign playthrough, but it'll be a long time before I put it on the table again. By the third act, the energy was very low (even though we played over 3 days).

Perhaps I'm not getting it but it seems really hard. I thought I finally eked out a win after a lot of tries, but it ended up being mutual destruction!

EDIT: Okay, properly using reflections, especially at the edges of the screen seems to be the key to victory

Are they? Why? Even in the brick metaphor that doesn't work.

Only tangentially related, but I can really recommend There are Rivers In The Sky by Elif Shafak, which starts in this library

I'm running both now, and while my Matter network seems to be solid, I can't get over the fact that it's so much harder to set up devices than on Zigbee. Why does Google need to get involved for me to set up a local IKEA device with my local border router?

Indeed! I have a CC1101 hooked up to an ESP32C6 that controls my Itho mechanical ventilation unit as a fan in HA.

I couldn't believe it when it basically worked on the first try, including pairing with the base unit and other remotes.

After all this time, I still don't know how to select a mission, or what missions are

Since you hooked it up to Home Assistant anyway, I think you could have skipped the custom firmware and just used ESPHome with a Button component https://esphome.io/components/button/

The more I mess around with ESP32s and home automation, the more I realize that was looks like jank to a software engineer is just the way these things work.

Look at the MAC addresses of smart devices connected to your home network and 90% of them are just going to be ESP32 chips hooked up in this way to some control mechanism, but in a nicer enclosure.

Ah, I had not considered that the limitations of epubs were due to the device rather than the format. Having said that, Calibre does does the conversion on the fly when I upload my books, so I don't really experience any issues there

Ah, no worries! I keep forgetting that KOReader does more than Kobo!

> Worth nothing that KOReader doesn't replace the default Kobo firmware. It's easy to install and you launch it from the Kobo firmware so it's easy to quit and go back to normal.

Ah, that's definitely something I missed, sounds like a good reason to give it a try!

What does directly mean? I can read epubs directly now (but more importantly, kepubs)

What makes it so good for you? I'm very comfortable with installing stuff like this in general, but I've never felt the need to install KOReader since I don't experience any issues with the basic software.

The only thing I'd maybe like is syncing reading progress with TheStoryGraph, but I can't imagine what else I might want.

I mean, I love writing with fountain pen and I do it every day, but I have _read_ Anathem.

That looks so much better than that other post!

I'm tired of talking about AI

Once you get past the first level you're never using the attack action

IKEA will send you those for free if you order them on the site, including free shipping

Indeed, I don't think that's the brag he thinks it is
