  • They are meant to fit in the back of a light switch so are very tight on space. I opened one up, it’s not very complicated but the routing is probably a bitch.

    I actually know how to make PCBs and 3d print cases and stuff. I have 2 printer (I barely use them though). That being said, it is using main and if it fucks up and something catches fire, I think insurance companies wouldn’t pay out. I don’t think its worth it, but I did legit look into it and have like 2 half prototypes in kicad lol.

    But ya, I don’t know. I don’t really want to touch stuff that doesn’t just run on a small battery or off USB. Simple mistakes can snowball fast with higher voltages.



  • I haven’t implemented much but I’m planning on going with Shelly smart relays. I’m not a big fan of smart bulbs and stuff. I don’t know if that’s mostly what you mean by Wiz.

    I was checking home assistant out and it seems to have quite a lot of things integrated so at least we aren’t slaves to their apps, even though it’s always connected to their servers.





  • Yes, well menial labor didn’t stop existing. The ratio just changed by a lot. I also figure most on Lemmy aren’t working in sweat shops lol, I definitely don’t mean Africans working in a pit when I say ‘Us’.

    In any case, it’s far from peak delusion, it’s literally history. Right before WW1, 30% of Americans were full time farmers. Now that number sits at 1.3%.

    Does that even happened?

    I took it you meant “does technology freeing us from menial task even happened”. In that case, I’m answering that yes it did happen, since technology freed us from menial tasks like farming so more of us could study engineering and medicine for example.

    If you are asking if the current set of AI tools has freed us from menial tasks in the past. Well then no, because they are new and didn’t exist.
