    I find it interesting, that when I build a #homeassistant dashboard, then I&amp;#39;m basically working with a state machine. Show the state of these entities. Conditionally on these states, show these cards. While when I&amp;#39;m doing automations for my lights and other non-dashboard entities, then I&amp;#39;m not able to work in the same way - in that case I have to wait for a trigger, and then I fire off some actions and hope they take. Is it currently possible to set a desired state duri...

    So somehow, entirely outside of my control, I became the owner of a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. Ok, maybe I had a moment of boredom and exerted the tiniest bit of control towards something futile, but honestly I should not be trusted to do things! Anyway, while I wasn&amp;#39;t surprised to learn that it had an AI assistant installed, I did find the FOUR assistants I had to either uninstall or disable depending on how deeply it was baked into the system, a bit excessive. Bixby - Samsung AI, disa...

    So I got a new phone, and while I&amp;#39;m patiently waiting for the military grade cover to arrive (seriously, it&amp;#39;s being shipped from the UK, but every day it&amp;#39;s like &amp;quot;we moved your package from that desk to this desk&amp;quot;), so my new phone won&amp;#39;t suffer from child proximity or the consequences of being as slippery as a stick of butter in the sun, I&amp;#39;m only using it sparingly. However, in this short transition period, it&amp;#39;s real annoying that...

    It really is sad that it ended up being &amp;quot;phone&amp;quot; winning out over &amp;quot;PDA&amp;quot;. Personal Digital Addiction is just much better at describing what it does.

    So I guess I&amp;#39;m upgrading from my Pixel 7 pro to a Samsung galaxy S26 Ultra (Through no expense apart from a cover). It&amp;#39;s striking just how similar the form factor of the two phones are. The size is pretty much identical, the main difference being how the camera bump on the Samsung is moronically parked to the side making the phone wobble when lying on a table. The camera is hopefully better though. Still, not much has happened in the last 4 years. #galaxys26ultra #Pixel7Pro

    In the latest series of #spiderman movies we have: - Homecoming - Far from home - No way home The now one is called... Brand new day. What drove the executives to not name it Home Alone? He has no friends, his aunt is dead, it fits with the naming scheme, it&amp;#39;s perfect! The first part of the summary is even: &amp;quot;A forgotten Peter Parker lives alone [..]&amp;quot;

    Jeg hører ofte, senest i #prompt, at ønsket om at man skal kunne bruge #mitid på degoogled enheder er urimeligt. At man ikke kan forvente at få understøttelse på operativsystemer med meget få brugere. Mens jeg er enig i denne udlægning er den også misforstået. Problemet er ikke, at jeg vil have en native app til MarkOS. Problemet er at jeg vil have at Android-appen - appen de allerede har lavet - skal virke uden at kræve at Google på alle tidspunkter har snablen inde i min enhed. MitID kræver...

    I have a surround sound setup in my living room. I also like music. So of course #DolbyAtmos music plays a role. Fortunately #tidal has a bunch of music in atmos. Unfortunately the majority of artists (or mixers) apparently see this awesome control of 5-20 speakers as an excellent opportunity to put all the music on the center channel! Why confuse the listener with music from multiple directions when we can finally achieve single speaker mono as the gods intended? Anyway, I have started compili...
