Today’s #HomeAutomation own-goal: Having my bedroom light switch on when my phone connects to the house WiFi. I did not account for my iPhone updating and rebooting itself at 2.30am…

@duckyfella bwahaha, i love when the modem reboots and you forget you have power on when recovered ... boy that's fun when the power goes out hahaha
@duckyfella i have most certainly done something similar
@duckyfella haha I had something similar set up. And it kept happening late at night / early morning, and my spouse and I would wake up cause all the bedroom lights would go on.
@duckyfella I have similar story. I automatedy roomba to vacuum at 12... Well I finally learned the difference between 12 AM and PM as somebody from mainly 24h clock country.

@duckyfella
Oh no!

One of my favourite innovations in my Home Assistant is input_boolean.eddie_is_in_bed. I have automations to set that when I turn off my light at bedtime and unplug my phone in the morning, and my most disruptive automations check for it before they run.

@silvermoon82 Tempted to put a pressure sensor under my mattress cover for this purpose but worried it’ll output to the console “get off me you fat arse!”
