I’m self hosting on an old laptop, and I’m a convert for life. Self-hosting is amazing. Looking for other people’s weirdest examples of what they’re doing as inspiration.
My example, I recently set up a grammar script, where I have a couple 8b LLMs and an html landing page. I upload a doc and it corrects grammar and highlights changes it made, or just proofreads and I make changes manually. I can upload a novel before bed, and have suggestions based on specific writing styles in the morning. All local, perfectly suited for my own work.


Hah, great question. I did. And then I realized, this only works if the TV is on the moment the switch happens.
Which in the evening is actually pretty commonly the case… But never in the morning.
oh right, because the TV is not available on the network when it’s sleeping.
then you could save the desired brightness into some variable, and when the TV gets turned on apply the settings. I believe HA should be able to make an event when that happens. if there’s a large delay, you could make a timer that forcibly refreshes the TV state every few seconds
Hmm, you mean when HA sees the TV come back? Interesting, that might work.
I’s rather not do the force refresh option, because sometimes you do want different profiles. Very dark show, sometimes I want the bright setting at night. Very overcast day, sometimes the dark setting is better during the day.
