A lot of the Chinese smart bulbs can be controlled through Home Assistant. The ones that are almost universally unsupported are the Feit Electric brand.

I mostly use custom built RGB lamps running WLED which are controlled by Home Assistant and the Adaptive Lighting integration which adjusts the brightness throughout the day based on the position of the sun. I do have a couple Govee lights that are controlled in the same manor as well.

People are lazy as fuck and will do all kinds of things that surprise you especially when they become complacent.

Roughly the same gap between Star Wars: A New Hope coming out and Y2K happening.
Even talking about Y2K and AOL floppy disks sounds old and once again is roughly the same time span to today.

CmdrShepard42@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•I ditched my laptop for a pocketable mini PC and a pair of AR glasses — here’s what happenedEnglish101·4 days agoWhats a fake assertion? This thing doesn’t need to completely revolutionize the industry or replace existing products completely to be viable and useful for some. I personally think it’s a neat idea even though I have zero use for a portable device outside of my phone. I seriously can’t comprehend why people seem to be getting outraged in the comments here over something that has zero effect on them or their life whether it exists or not.

CmdrShepard42@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Commerce Secretary Lutnick says tariff exemptions for electronics are only temporary: Lutnick said "semiconductor tariffs" will likely come in "a month or two.".English53·4 days agoYeah they’re directly responsible for the path we’ve been on for decades now. They pretend to be an opposition party but are really acting like controlled opposition. This is why even now as people are being illegally sent to El Salvadorian death camps, we get little more from Dems than “concern” and angry letters. Maybe if Harris hadn’t spent so much time courting Dick Cheney’s approval, she wouldn’t have lost.

CmdrShepard42@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Airport face scans could replace boarding passes and check-in as soon as 2028English5·5 days agoClear was kinda bullshit, and how it was cost effective to have agents “selling” you on the service at the airport.
Is bullshit. They’re expanding it. I was in the Orlando airport a few months ago waiting in the long ass TSA lines while Clear employees went to everyone in line offering a free trial and “you don’t have to wait in this line.” It’s fucking insane that the government can create these delays with the TSA and then goad people into signing up for an expensive service with a private company to bypass the very problem that they created. Says a lot about the “security” too when you can just skip it by ponying up a little bit of cash.

Like in 2007, a US recession can easily lead to a global recession so I wouldn’t be so quick to think this will be isolated to the US.

CmdrShepard42@lemm.eeto Leopards Ate My Face@lemmy.world•MAGA clown sees her retirement disappearing (more in comments)English4·13 days agoI got a STEM degree that didn’t require any financial classes. I learned all that on my own once I started making adult money at nearly 30. I see (quite a lot of) others in my same boat who didn’t bother and are making six figures while living paycheck to paycheck still. The last round of layoffs were quite a shock to these people.
I’ll give big credit to my parents who also never saved a dollar and gave me the fire inside to never allow myself to wind up in the same position after seeing the disastrous results of said decisions.
Edit: funny that a CJ degree is mentioned as my aunt and her (trash of a human being) prison guard husband took out a $500k loan to remodel their $250k house. They got divorced last year and still can’t sell that house. He lives in Florida now and she moved into a trailer park.
Adaptive Lighting is pretty nice. You can set it to adjust the brightness and/or light temperature throughout the day and even setup a “nightlight” setting for overnight.
