  • Using the Ecobee thermostat, I use the built in weather module in Home Assistant to give local weather data to the system. In summer, I set it up to watch for the lowest overnight temps via forecast, and trigger on the lowest temperatures we’d see. Then I’d drop the house temp to 66 or 64 degrees when the AC had to do the least amount of work. Then I’d use the basement air to keep the upstairs cool enough and use the AC as little as possible.

    My last house was old and had some drafts I couldn’t find. So in the winter, if the weather turned to windy I’d increase the temp a degree or two for comfort.



  • My guess is that Stephen Miller knows that Vance can’t hold three pieces of paper together and will try to ramp up martial law to retain power. Which they don’t have the manpower to do without the actual military who likely would not follow such orders. The national guard would likely start doing malicious compliance at best and ICE flat out doesn’t have enough people to control blocks of a city let alone the country. I can’t even imagine where things would go from there.






  • You’ve got some good suggestions, I think most of the suggestions I can think of. Nextcloud is of course the big one but after using it for quite a while, I think it’s important to break down your needs. If you need file sharing/syncing only, there are better options that are easier and faster. If you only need chat/voice, rocket chat is really lightweight and easy. If you need file sharing, online office suite, chat, etc. Then Nextcloud is the right option. Just keep in mind, even if you think you need some of those things, will anyone but you ever actually use them? No, they won’t, because they don’t appreciate how cool it is to self host and how much effort you put into it.
