Looking for some #SmartHome recommendations:
I use #HomeAssistant on a Pi 4 with devices pushed into #AppleHome #HomeKit.
I’m looking for some battery-powered switches/buttons (preferably ones that don’t eat batteries like Wemo Stage) to control smart bulbs/smart outlets.
I can’t use wired switches/buttons because I currently rent and am not allowed to do anything with wiring.
What are some switches/buttons that work reliably with Home Assistant? Can add dongles to my Pi 4/HASS if needed.

@npub1utv…87lr looks like Southwest has some availability tomorrow at high but not horrendous prices?

@npub1tfy…0xcr this is really great to hear, especially after MI2; I’ll continue with my marathon viewing this weekend!
Enjoy Dead Reckoning!

Having heard great things about #DeadReckoning part one, and having never watched a #MissionImpossible movie, I decided to make my way through the first six films.
So far I’ve watched the first two and I found them to be just so-sIs it generally accepted that they get (much?) better from 3 onward? Or am I wasting my time if I didn’t like the first two.
