We are using it for presence detection, but not just for those that live in the house. Our life 360 'circle' allows my parents to arrive and automatically perform actions (disarm alarm) but they are not users of HA since there is no real need.
We were already using L360 when I started using HA.
Thanks for the link, I googled looking for issues because I know there was one earlier this year that required a fix. Might be time to figure out a better way, but it's just another thing to mess with :)
I just checked an it appears my HA server and laptop are both within 1sec of one another, so I am assuming I'm good there. Thanks for the idea. I tried restarting HA also, no luck.
Tried going back to using my phone vs. email to log in, but same issue, authentication error.
Like restarting the original show - 100% would Love! Remaking it as all other 2023 shows - No thanks.
I also don't believe the modern world would allow what we had. Insurance, getting access to locations (because insurance, general costs) all those fun things.
And nobody under 30 would watch it if episodes were longer than 3 minutes. I can make fun of them because they left after the first line of this comment :)
Pretty interesting article, thanks for sharing
I was sitting on a picnic table at my kids soccer fields and a little jumping spider was crawling around on the table. It actually came over to me so I put my finger out and it didn't shy away but like touched me and then just hung out around.
I actually wanted to take it home.
And ya I'm over 50yo haha, so I left it alone as the adult thing to do.
Not "a" Tesla,
I'm saying I'm driving around in one of two paid off vehicles (wife's or mine) the newest is 2011.
Whenever we go anywhere, generally most other cars are newer/nicer.
I see a ton of Teslas. I see a ton of Denali's I see a ton of Mercedes SUVs
Just saw a Lucid Air driving today.
So if everyone is doing so terrible, who owns all these cars?
I'm NOT saying Americans are not doing terrible... But externally people seem to be able to buy new vehicles,. Houses are easier to be bias since those are where you are physically, but there's no shortage of big new houses being built. I'm just always amazed at the difference in what I HEAR and what I SEE. Around me. I live in a semi rural area in Indiana.
I am nearing ( < 10 years) a planned retirement and because of the articles I read/click on I end up seeing lots of stories like this.
I see both extremes, "I'm 55 and have 4 million in my 401k, can I retire?" as well as medium 401k by age showing like 55yo with 80k in retirement savings.
I get more stories talking about or showing how bad average Americans are doing from a savings/living perspective. Yet, I see new cars and big ass houses everywhere. Big ass GMC and Cadillac Denali SUVs, Tesla's, all manor if expensive vehicles and fancy new houses. Everyone has the latest iPhone, etc..
I guess debt is a helluva thing.
Their lives are too short!!
I actually have grayjay on my phone (and paid for it). I don't mind paying for stuff I use.
I've also used revances, and smarttube tv. But as I said right now the value is still "ok" but reaching it's limit for sure.
We've always been at war with eastasia... Sad state of affairs for sure.
Up to 6 users as it is a family plan but ya it's pricey
Doesn't the companion app have gps access? I haven't looked into it very closely since I was already using life360. I thought there was a tracking sensor as part of the phone (separate from life360) that may be able to be used? I do rather like the randomized mac address setting on our phones.
