Concrete slab guys are working away. A/C guy has done his magic (and enabled the "programmable" setting on our thermostat -- it had been configured as non-programmable "to not confuse the owners"!). And the first of the decking guys should be here in a few minutes to survey and quote for front and back decking work, the latter to go in and around the spa and hot tub. Woohoo! It's only money 🙂

Do you have the ability to control remotely? I use home-assistant for a lot of things in my house

dharrigan 2025-08-01T15:44:45.969799Z

like turning on my portable aircon or a fan, or lights

dharrigan 2025-08-01T15:44:54.144529Z

tis lovely

I don't like smart devices, TBH. They're hard to avoid these days tho'...

dharrigan 2025-08-01T15:45:34.631589Z

The thing I like about home-assistant, is that it's mine. it's internal, data doesn't go to anyone else.

dharrigan 2025-08-01T15:45:37.099559Z

it's all on-site.

seancorfield 2025-08-01T15:45:52.349369Z

Ah, interesting.

dharrigan 2025-08-01T15:45:52.854089Z

and it uses open/standard protocols

seancorfield 2025-08-01T15:49:01.229199Z

The main thing we control remotely is our ADT Security system. Our washer/dryer has an app that lets us know when we need to go down to the basement to swap clothes in/out. We have two thermometers downstairs that are on wifi. Two TVs on wifi.

I would definitely check out the home-assistant forums and see if your devices are supported.

It's neat being able to turn on the fan/aircon/lights when I'm away from home and travelling back

dharrigan 2025-08-01T15:52:09.110029Z

(or turn them off, as the case may be)

dharrigan 2025-08-01T15:52:24.988899Z

(from my mobile phone, on my own private VPN)

I've put up on github a little demo of how to use passkeys and clojure https://github.com/dharrigan/passkeys-demo. Be gentle 🙂
