Amazing, thank you so much! This gives me a great starting point. I love your creativity with the diaper-counting - there's so much cool stuff that tech can do, but I especially love when it's helping out with the mundane daily tasks!

Good point, I hadn't considered the UV light impact. Thanks for the Aqara Rex, will look into it.

Smart button available in NZ (lemmy.world)

Hi Kiwi friends!

Does anyone have recommendations for a wireless, battery-powered smart button available in NZ (or that ships to NZ)? I'd like to use it with Home Assistant to act as a doorbell.

I can see things like this online, but the "easy to use, free app!" is off-putting... I'm after a button that has minimal capability to spy on me, and that can be integrated with HA.

Any suggestions welcome - or if anyone has any better ideas on an alternative option, go for it! We can't get mains power or PoE where I want to put the doorbell.

This is how I feel when colleagues resign from my workplace... I'm sad that I'll miss their presence at work, but ultimately happy that they're expanding their careers and moving onto bigger things.

Well, at least they used silane instead of PFAS.

I bought two tickets to a show from Ticketek (for Isaac Theatre in CHCH). It says in the email that I need to print them off but... do I reaaaally? Or can I just show them on my screen?
