I’m using a Drayton Wiser thermostat, which uses WiFi but has a fully local integration via HACS. Has worked great for me so far.

Maybe it’s just me but it’s felt like a particular bleak January and February this year.

Happy to see some sun even if that also comes with the start of allergy season.

I have a smart water meter installed by the utility provider with a cloud integration, unfortunately the readings have a 24-48h delay so it’s no use for real time monitoring.

Quite a different result from what the polls were predicting.

BPAs have been shown to absorbed through the skin. Headphones are increasingly worn for long, continuous periods. Unlike other plastic objects which are handled for shorter periods.

Tea. Dinner only used for Sundays or Christmas.
