This shows the true power of open. Skylord123 didn’t need permission from Home Assistant or Pebble to make and publish this app. A 10 year old watch is now talking to state of the art voice assistants via Home Assistant. Open technologies for the win.

I'm _self-hosting_ a Home Assistant meetup in the Detroit Area. Anyone out there have a suggestion on a venue that could handle anywhere from 2-50 tech-type people on a Saturday afternoon in May? This is open source, so that's reflected in the "budget" #detroit #homeassistant #selfhosted

👆Touch display for a mini rack. I set it up with my pi-kiosk configuration on a Raspberry Pi (github.com/geerlingguy/...), and I can control and monitor the whole studio through Home Assistant. Should I do a quick video on it?

Ugh. My son has found out that one of his favorite YouTubers is publishing their content as video podcasts on Spotify. Endless pursue of growth of Spotify has caused it to innovate itself onto my app block list for kids, well done.
