  • And ESPhome works very well together with Home Assistant if you want to build stuff yourself.

    Just get an ESP32 and a sensor or other device that is supported by ESPhome and you will be able to program and connect it very quickly.

    There are also ways to use sensors that are currently not supported by ESPhome by writing a custom component, but that is something that I don’t do, too much effort and it’s not that easy.

    It’s also crazy just how many different devices can be connected to Home Assistant. If it is at least somewhat widely used chances are good that someome has already written a plugin to make it work.













  • The biggest reason is that such fans are designed for low pressure and high volume operation, when you blow air around the room you really don’t need very much pressure.

    So the fan blades already are already no longer operating at their optimum pressure when they have 5 filters to suck air through (each filter only has to let 1/5 of the air through, so the differential pressure over the filters is much lower), but it’s much closer to the ideal operating pressure than two filters behind each other.

    If the pressure gets too high the fan stops being able to push any air through the filters and the efficiency reaches zero.







  • Kind of, humans were hunter gatherers for so long that we evolved to be good at it, so I guess that’s what would be natural for us.

    Agriculture and our current life hasn’t been around long enough for us to properly adapt to it.

    I have no idea if those societies were patriarchal or matriarchal, I would imagine both happened or maybe even some sort of equality, if you want to know more about this go ask an expert in the field.

    But in the end I don’t care what you do, I just continued your argument.
