Unless I’m misunderstanding, I do believe it is that simple, yes.
I think the first decision to make is pre built vs DIY. The most common pre built solution would be something like Synology. You may start researching there and see if that would fit your needs, or what people do as alternatives.
I personally built one with a similar use case and use Unraid for my OS. The other normal option is TrueNAS.
With that budget you’ll be able to get a good result.
Honestly I’d just go low-ish tech and give them a key, or install a lock with a keypad and teach them a number. The security problems with automatic smart locks are too big, in my opinion.
Been addicted as shit to this for like a week
Yeah I saw it west of Cleveland. A little hazy at times but didn’t affect the experience much
Unrelated, but how do you tolerate that length of commute every day? I’d last 3 days before either looking for a new job or a new house.
For project A, I’d look into tailscale. I’d advise against having home assistant open to the internet otherwise.
Don’t know anything about your other project, sorry.
As if EMS is stable lol

That is kinda funny
I’m a prescriber in the US and the name that people will commonly use varies by drug and by region. It’s also influenced by whether that medication is even available generically due to patents (if that’s the right legal word) on medications being decently long when they first come out.
I agree it’s a mess
For allergies? Most people should start with a second generation antihistamine like Allegra or Claritin, they shouldn’t cause the same sedation like Benadryl does.
If you’re using benadryl for sleep, atarax can be a bit better, but if it is just sleep, I’d stop using any of them. It can be habit forming, fuck up your sleep hygiene, and long term use of anticholinergic medication may increase your risk of dementia in the long run.
This is incredibly generic advice and you should talk to your doctor about any concerns you have.
Ironically I know I just used a bunch of brand names but that’s what I refer to them as off the top of my head ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah it’s relatively easy to reuse most webcam cameras, you just have to get them connected to a USB cable, then most computers will immediately recognize them as cameras.
I usually just harvest usable parts like the hard drive and camera and call it a day.
Alternatively, if you’re able to plug an external monitor in and get it to work for setup, you could install some sort of Linux distro on it and run it headless for lots of different purposes.
In vanilla home assistant? You can do sunrise and sunset but it’s not super reliable in my experience.
What does this allow you to do that can’t already be done with a date or time trigger in automations?
Throw it away and make a new one
1100!! Wow. I’m in a house built like a hundred years ago and I felt like that was old.
Does that get me a discount on the house? Sign me up
Are you using the binhex image by any chance? I had this same problem, just had to update it from the apps/community center page instead of from the docker page.
