Linux, Vim, Omakub and on being vendor agnostic | Eddie Dale

Linux, Vim, Omakub and on being vendor agnostic | Eddie Dale:

The other aspect that appealed to me from Omakub, was the “us agains the mega corporations” mindset. Whether it’s Microsoft, Apple, Google or Amazon.
I keep feeling this urge. An urge to move towards more open standards.
I have a Kindle, but my next e-reader probably won’t be from Amazon.
I have an iPhone, but I’m not sure the next phone will be from Apple.

This is exactly where I’m at!

Spotify’s daylist is something different. I haven’t been tha

Spotify’s daylist is something different. I haven’t been that understood by a piece of music-related software. Honestly, it’s always on point and the suggestions are always wild (but good wild). But in terms of being understood by a piece software, recently I’ve made multiple changes to automations working in our home due to finally having time to sit down and take a peak into what Home Assistant allows. And since then I had thoughts like “it’s getting too hot” or “it’s getting too dark” and at – literally at this second, HA turned on a thing because it became exactly too hot or too dark.

Doing buttons, clicking them to do a thing is obviouisly an upgrade from manually doing things, but I think I finally understood what does it mean to have “the smart home”. My current approach is that whenever something happens or just annoys me (or the wifey) – I try to either make automation at this moment or I write down what happened and what could happen. Also now I get why would I buy light sensors, air quality sensors and – most importantly – occupancy sensors. Having that additional information about room being occupied is great. Even for that simple “room is occupied == true” condition.

I saw someone posting that they wanted to switch to Android but because they don’t want to think about tech they will buy iPhone. Again. If that’s you I have a tip – you don’t have to buy new phone. You can use whatever you have, it’s probably enough.
