People who haven't heard of ESP32s

Unfortunately you can't run home assistant on an esp32. I'm using an old laptop for it, waiting for a minipc with better specs than it to be under $50 before buying.

Fair point, but I see a whole category of things with a RP slapped on it that a simple microcontroller could do (don't get me wrong, its great people are innovating, it's just a little overkill).
