I’ll answer my own question. I got one other family member added by inviting her via her phone number instead of iCloud email. The last family member is hopeless, but he is not the owner of any Home so I’m thinking I’ll reset his profile next time. I’ll have to dig up that post on how to do that.
my house is set up where the dumb wall switches are only there to cycle power, in case my Hue bulbs decide to misbehave. so the dumb switches stay on constantly, and scenes and automations rule the world of lighting in my house. my partner knows not to touch the switches.
could you train your household members not to touch the wall switches? I’m pretty sure most people who have Hue lights don’t physically power them off and on with a wall switch. but I’d like to hear the scenarios and methods if someone is.
Haven’t tried this yet, but it’s on my list of things to do…use your hosts file to dump the ad sites to 0.0.0.0. Compliments of Steven Black
Mastodon is where the link to the raddle article appeared. The post on Mastodon basically said they wouldn’t use Lemmy because of what the article stated.
I had an old MacBook Pro laying around so I put docker on it for fun.
it’s currently running an apache web server for me (with php) and has been rock solid. (I used to use mamp.)
I also run homebridge for my Apple Home on the mbp. homebridge uses brew (from brew.sh) for install/dependencies/etc.
