Sad news, the Home Assistant Solcast Integration is dead. The developer has pulled it and deleted it from GitHub.

https://github.com/hacs/integration/issues/3745

On the plus side BJReplay has forked it and it can be found here. It is not in HACS yet.

@spitfire @homeassistant @homeassistant @homeassistantinpills @homeassistant I haven’t installed the fork yet. I may do it today. It is the automations and cards that are a pain. As ever it is quiet majority that get stuffed by this. If he was getting grief I can totally understand.

I know a few weeks back the Solcast API was down and yet their status page said it was ok. Users were asking for a fix that wasn’t his issue.

@spitfire @homeassistant @homeassistant @homeassistantinpills @homeassistant I tend to agree. I am sure plenty of people would have commented to say they appreciate all the work and please keep it up. You never know is also happening in someones life and this might have been the final straw.

Huge huge thanks to everyone who voted for "Smashing Security" as the best #podcast for making cybersecurity accessible for all! 🏆

Can anyone recommend a cheap Home Assistant motion sensor? I want to trigger a smart bulb in the loft.

@connel @homeassistant @homeassistant @homeassistantinpills I have their temperature and humidity sensors. They are very good.

Since HMV shipped it promptly and Royal Mail decided that 24-hour delivery was better than 48, I’m settling down to watch a glorious looking and sounding 4K release of The Italian Job (not officially released until Monday).

“No one knows how Trump’s guilty verdict might affect the election”

Read that again…

“No one knows how Trump’s guilty verdict might affect the election”

In a non-Bizzaro world, it would be easy to say it would absolutely destroy any chance of him being elected dogcatcher let alone POTUS.

What a fucked up timeline we’re living in. 😳🤬

@KingShawn I seems so weird to me. I can’t believe there are so many people who will still vote for him. It seems to me, many will vote Republican as they always have and won’t abstain or vote Democrat to show enough is enough.

bazcurtis,
@bazcurtis@mastodon.social avatar

@KingShawn I understand that, and that makes it worse. How can so many people make this election so close?

Hilary Clinton must find this more and more depressing.

@KingShawn Yes, it is a very interesting system. It has been argued that the UK constituencies are bias towards the Conservative Party. We will find out more on the 4th July.

bazcurtis,
@bazcurtis@mastodon.social avatar

@KingShawn The Labour Party have a history of messing it up and the Liberal Democrats are still be punished for being in the Conservative coalition.

It might be interesting to see how The Greens go this time. They have done will in council elections, but those elections are normally protest elections.

New post: Looking at our first year in

Our solar install was connected and went active a year ago today.

In this post, I look at its performance over that time as well as the savings we've achieved through
and events

@ben I will read this later, but I wish we had power ups.

bazcurtis,
@bazcurtis@mastodon.social avatar

@ben Twist the knife why don’t you 😀. The DNO around here is UK Power Networks which is good news, except our new build estate uses ESPUtilities.

This means I need Octopus to not only bring it to our area, but get the DNO onboard.

@Edent Better keep them. You never know when you will need them. Only in the last year, I got rid of my FireWire 400 and 800 cables!

@ChrisWarwick Sorry, I thought it was your link about your heat pump. We will be happy if we break even. We did it to have one less gas boiler in the world.

Thanks for the book recomendation.
