@alex@feed.yopp.me separated devices can have a bigger distance between them and have less radio interference. Also, having 2 devices allowing to use bluetooth + thread firmware on one of them.

I wanted the smart home to come back instantly after a power cutoff (such as when I’m installing a relay). So the HA server, Ethernet switch, and radio coordinators are connected to a mini battery. The coordinators use the server’s USB ports because the UPS has a few outputs.

Wi-Fi isn’t ideal for a smart home. You want a separate, more reliable low-power radio network. I use Zigbee as the main one, plus Matter over Thread for a few newer IKEA devices. I got the radio coordinators from https://smlight.tech/ and connected them over Ethernet.

Home Assistant used to run on our shared Fedora CoreOS server. Whenever I had to fix or reboot it, my family couldn’t even turn off the lights. https://github.com/ai/susedko Now the smart home has its own machine: a Home Assistant Green, partly to support the HA team.

My previous smart home also ran on Home Assistant instead of a closed cloud platform because:

  1. Local control makes everything respond instantly
  2. HA supports far more devices and services than any proprietary cloud
  3. No privacy issues

A thread on how I’m building my new Home Assistant–based smart home ↓ This is already my third smart home setup, and I’m completely happy with how everything works.

U.S. conservatives are pushing the same kids’ social media age-verification laws they mocked when EU “leftists” did it. Left vs. right is the trap. The real fight is defending internet freedom from politicians from every side. https://www.internationalcyberdigest.com/a-kids-safety-bill-heads-to-a-u-s-house-vote-give-us-your-freedom/

While the Trump and rightward turn in the West claims it has supposedly stopped the “Democrats’ eco-wave,” China is taking the lead in green energy and is literally covering itself (and other countries) with its wind turbines and solar panels.

Today I learned about Node Modules Inspector from the awesome @antfu@m.webtoo.ls.

This tool lets you explore your project’s node_modules: check licenses, see who’s taking up all the space, and more.
