I got my first pair of @meshtastic nodes setup tonight 😁 I’m really looking forward to playing with them more and seeing what all I can do.

@ironicbadger what was the location tracking software that was compatible with #OwnTracks you mentioned on Self Hosted? I can’t remember where in the show it was mentioned and don’t see it in the notes

@ironicbadger you were talking on Self Hosted about triggering lights when on camera… I do that via a sensor from the @homeassistant companion app - anytime my camera is on, for any app, it turns on a sign downstairs that says ā€œON ZOOMā€ that’s powered by #WLED. I’m happy to share more details if you want.

@ironicbadger & @ChrisLAS - if y’all are going to do a segment on #Immich kiosk, I’d be happy to preemptively share what I’ve got going with it. to;dr is a little pi-sized ā€œdigital photo frameā€ on my desk & a 65ā€ tv near my front door that has digital art via Immich kiosk and a home dashboard that can be switched to with the push of a zigbee button. The TV and an old tiny Lenovo to run it were acquired for free. The Pi one is all #Nix-ified too.
