Pretty much

Good news everyone!

Nice find! Thanks for sharing

Keep em frosty people

Well fuck, distro drama

Rooting for the team, I hope they figure things out

it’s so gooooooood, one of my favorite games in the last decade, I’m so excited!

the PSP was so far ahead of it’s time

I remember my friends just getting their new Razor flip phones and I’d be sitting next to them switching between a triple A game, retro emulators, homebrew, browsing the web, running custom software (hacked psp), listening to music and even making calls and sending texts with the skype app. Needed wifi but it felt like I had a whole laptop in my pocket in an era of still mostly dumb phones.

good news everybody!

that looks promising, I think I can see a path forward there, I still need to dig into the new calendar functionality, thanks for sharing!

Forgot to add, something I really want to figure out is how to do reminders with it. I’m stuck using Gemini on my phone for that and I’d really love to find a way to do that in HA if anyone has any tips.

We’ve been using the previews since they shipped. The Mycroft wake word has worked well enough for the whole family. Tried the chatbot fallback but the syntax of the intent parser is strict enough we were getting routed to the llm way more than we wanted. For example asking it to turn on a light and Claude telling us it couldn’t do that. It fails faster and more reliably with just the intent parser.

Our favorite use case is shopping lists. “Hey Mycroft add greens to groceries list” is great and won me some WAF. I also regularly use timers, some custom commands (hey Mycroft I fed the dog), and managing lights with scenes (hey Mycroft turn on Daytime).

I’m hoping to one day transition to a local llm that’s fine tuned for homeassistant specific tasks and it looks like some good ones will arrive soon. The existing implementations haven’t won me over yet.

Dunno, I’m a big fan and the wife doesn’t hate them, I’m really optimistic about the future of these. I think HA is going about them the right way and we’ll see good things in the future. It’s a little rough right now if you’re not willing to put up with the quirks probably but I think it’s just going to keep getting better.

To the moon!

This is 1000% true but some people need the gui and that’s probably ok too

Lol, so much this, we’ve got two under 4 atm and I’m so glad we’ve got an IKEA couch they can beat on instead of some nice thing we’d be scared of them tearing up

I’ll tell you something not to get, Ikea, they certainly have a place but it’s not BIFL. I’ve been a little disappointed recently in how quickly our Malm is deteriorating.

Emudeck for (basically) all of them https://www.emudeck.com/

it has some unique console features, such as size (you can build one that size but it’ll be pricier for the same specs, see linus’s monstrosity), CEC support, and a dedicated internal antenna for lower latency wireless controller support

the pre-built market is still huge actually and this will be a pretty reasonable prebuilt for the majority of households

Thank you for sharing!
