    If the airport needs more baggage handlers on staff because there’s heavy 2 person luggage or just more luggage, they indirectly do get the money, because that’s how wages work.

    Although I’m sure that the airline will pocket some of the fee, which is obviously not cool, but that’s capitalism for you.



  • +1 for Home Assistant

    I have it running on a Pi 5 (although a Pi 4 is more then enough), with a 15€ USB ZigBee antenna from AliExpress (to connect IKEA devices).

    The best thing about it is that it seamlessly integrates all devices with each other, so you can use cheap ZigBee buttons to control your Philipps Hue lightbulbs, for example.





  • Forums: great store of knowledge and friendly, helpful people. If you ask a question in discord, nobody will ever see the answer again.

    The search functions in forums are notoriously terrible though (although someone will inevitably ask you to try using it), so finding anything useful relies on “outside” search engines.

    And the linear thread format has been terrible since it was invented (which is probably why discord uses it). You basically need to ignore half the posts to follow the one interesting side line that might end up with a solution.
