Hmmm… that page doesn’t mention the free “personal use” license for hobbyists.

^ This page still exists, and doesn’t mention it is going away, so maybe there is still hope.

To me this automation seems much better suited to using the Node-RED addon. There is a built in “delay” node that can be used for rate limiting. You would set the delay node to once per hour and put it between the node watching your motion sensor, and the node flipping the light switch. Easy stuff. You could do the same with one or two more nodes to get and check the current wind speed and put that inline as well.
Keep in mind though, any kind of rate limiting/cool down makes it more likely that the lights won’t turn on when you actually want them to. For example, if you leave the house and come back after the lights have turned off, but before the cool down period expires you won’t have lights.
No worries. I was really hoping you were fed up with an Ender 3 just like I am 🤣
I’d very much like to see a follow up to this after you have a few prints under your belt. What you like or don’t like, or compare to other printers you’ve had.
You make a very good point here. Currently the provided backup node is limited to 10GB, which is a lot, but probably not for what you are trying to accomplish. The Anytype folks have also stated that in the future they plan to charge for larger backup nodes, which may be something you want to avoid.
In the meantime, because syncing is p2p, I believe you can effectively self-host by just making sure you have an internet-connected machine always running the client app. In that way, there will always be a peer to sync to, even if your backup node is full and not accepting more data.
Not self-hosting, but I have been using Anytype for a few months now and absolutely love it. I’m doing a lot of online coursework, and so I’m using Anytype to take and organize my notes actively for several hours a day, every day. I also use it for task tracking, journalling, and it has just generally become the place where I dump any kind of info I might need to retrieve in the future.
There is a learning curve before you get the hang of it. I was also frustrated by the editor at first, but now that I have learned some of the slash commands, added in with markdown formatting, I find it to be really efficient. One oddity that likely trips folks up is that every paragraph is a separate “block” which makes partially selecting text across blocks impossible. On the other hand though, it makes grabbing a block and repositioning or reformatting the contents super simple.
Keep in mind that Anytype is offline first, p2p for syncing, and end-to-end encrypted. So the value of self hosting is, I suppose, not using their provided (currently free) backup node? It doesn’t seem like a big deal to me unless you don’t trust the encryption.
I started out as “oh that’s a neat idea, I should play around with it” and now, just a month or so later, I depend on it almost daily.
Just one example: My family was on vacation and my wife asked if I remembered how long our next planned activity would take. Of course I don’t remember, but because I was using Anytype as a scratch pad for picking out our vacation activities (this was weeks prior), I was able to pull up the answer on my phone in less than 10 seconds - even though I had no internet or cell service at the time.
Having not come from Notion, Obsidian, or any other related software, there was a bit of a learning curve for me. But now I can’t help but keep dumping information into it.

I can also recommend Roborock brand in general because the hardware seems decent and it runs well enough with no internet/smart app required. I’ve not installed Valetudo on mine because the S4 requires some hardware changes that I’m not comfortable making. Other Roborock models are much easier to install.
Good luck!
I suppose I could! I’d have to figure out what time server they are trying use and I guess screw with local dns to point at my local time server.
I’m not sure how to figure out what time server they are trying to use though. Do you have any insight on that? I’ve tried to use wireshark for stuff like this in the past, but I found it to be a little overwhelming for my level of network knowledge.
Resilio Sync is fully cross-platform P2P app for syncing files/folders: https://www.resilio.com/individuals/
I’ve been using it for years and love it.
Edit: Sorry, it’s not FOSS. My bad for not reading the question thoroughly.
This is not exactly an answer to the question you asked but… All Shelly devices work out of the box with local control over wifi. I’ve got a handful of them and they work great with the HA integration.
Additionally, any device that supports HomeKit should also work locally with the HA HomeKit Controller integration (I think it was recently renamed to “HomeKit Devices” or something like that). This integration causes your HA to work like a HomeKit hub (no Apple devices required), and the HomeKit spec requires that devices work over local control.
In both cases for me, I have all these devices banned from talking to the internet at my router so they can’t phone home. Apart from my Ecobee thermostats not being able to keep time without drifting, they all work great.
Good luck!
One body per sketch was always a deal breaker for me, so it’s good to hear that limitation is gone.
Do you know if sketches are still required to represent a single continuous face? For example, 3 concentric circles would not be allowed because it is ambiguous which parts are “surface” and which are “holes”. F360 doesn’t impose this limitation because it allows you to select individual sketch faces to move into 3D space, whereas FreeCAD considers that a single operation on the entire sketch.
