Daniel JalkutI just had a brilliant invention: a mailbox that, when opened by the postal carrier, sings "thank you for bringing the mail" to the tune of "thank you for being a friend." I'll take my residuals monthly, thank you.
Leon Cowle@danielpunkass Well, @caseyliss is already 70% of the way there with his mailbox-open notification system he built — it just needs adding a little speaker!
Casey Liss@leoncowle @danielpunkass FWIW it announces “YOUVE GOT MAIL” inside the house when it’s triggered.
But that’s inside.
Alex GriffithsVery nice. How do you make the announcement? I’ve been trying to send audio announcements to HomePods, but it’s unreliable, to say the least. I may resort to using a Pi with a speaker, which I suspect you may be doing.
@Unfed The YoLink hub I ended up with happens to have a speaker on it. Which I thought was dumb. But has turned out to be useful.
