hell yeah brother go kill an antelope

Not a problem, thanks!! I’m sure this will be a big help

Thank you! It’s draw.io

Howdy! I have used this one in the past: mmmaxwwwell

Thank you, and good suggestion! I installed grafana once last time and failed to get anything useful as I didn’t invest enough time. Notifications sound great so I may look into the same combo you mentioned and see if I can wrangle it this time. Did you follow any particular guide when you started out with that? Otherwise I’ll just dive into the google

Thanks! Too much spare time on the weekend, haha

Good point, mine might be the same. I was linking things up from memory since it’s been >1year since I last had the server interface up, and I can’t remember how the modem was represented now that you mention it - I’ll have to fix that up

Thanks for the ideas! I hadn’t thought about budget apps but that could be a good one.

Not sure if I have use cases for n8n or not, but I’ll go learn about it and find out!

Thanks for the hint, it’s a good point. I need to check that my TV app store has it, I could see that being the catch.

That being said, I have been learning that my TV’s software is complete garbage and I may just go back to Android casting for TV control in general…

I enjoy making diagrams, and I spent as much time on this as I did because my internet has been out for 2 days and counting and it was an offline tool I already had. Nevertheless, thanks for the link to a new tool to look at

Fast data is priority 1, and learning how to host and administrate is priority 2, so I wouldn’t consider it - but it’s a fair question!

You’re definitely right, I’m going to remove the Hue hub and connect everything to the ConBee. They were separated before because Hue came first, and I didn’t want to rebuild my lighting setup at the time. HA automations were set up to use Hue-side groups, rather than HA-side groups. The thought hadn’t occurred to me yet that I can unify them now - but I definitely will.

I did think I remembered that Hue bulbs don’t work properly as ZigBee routers, but could be wrong there

Thank you! I’m using draw.io aka diagrams.net

Good point, possibly - I haven’t set one up before (new house has a wider range to cover) so I threw it in the diagram and didn’t think further. I’ll fix it up :)

This is awesome, I didn’t know there were game server managers. I definitely see the point as I did some ugly file hacking a few times. I’ll check out both Crafty Controller and Pterodactyl!

I’ve used Ansible for other stuff but never thought about it for server config, definitely going to figure that out too, been bitten there before as well.

Thank you!

I do! I am hosting HAOS as one of my VMs, I love it. I’m planning an upgrade to have a wall mounted tablet with the dashboard this time.

That’s a good point - I had Hue first, then got a ZigBee stick to add later devices, but left Hue alone because ‘not broken/don’t fix’ - but this time, I would like to ditch the Hue hub and set up everything on the proper ZigBee network. Thanks for reminding me!
