You'd be surprised at how many phones don't have enough accelerometers to know their full orientation in space. Compass, NFC, and barometer are also not givens.

Not multistage, but it's a heat pump with auxiliary heat. I have multiple zones controlled by dampers, too, soni have two of these thermostats.
I bought a Honeywell Z-Wave thermostat because I have a more complicated HVAC setup than the typical American home. It was one of the few I could find that was compliant with a home automation protocol that didn't require something that announced its existence to the Internet. It's been solidly reliable, replacing my dead Nest thermostat.
The thermostat:
If Google assistant ends up dying this is the way I'll be going with. I've already got HA up, I'm just using stuff that predates my HA setup.
I just want the LG G5 back. It had a(n):
- Removable battery
- SD card slot
- Infrared blaster
- FM Radio
- 3.5mm jack
- Compass
- Barometer
- Gyro
- NFC
- Fingerprint reader
And a ton of other stuff. Truly the best android phone ever made
Closest I can find now is the Ulefone line (no removable battery) but I have no idea if they're decent phones or not.
Ah yes, let me scrounge around for the remote someone else in my ADHD household last had in their hand 45 minutes ago and has no idea what they did with it.
Meanwhile, my small child is coming downstairs for a glass of water while we're watching Hereditary for the first time. The Roku app is a pile of garbage and won't connect to my device fast enough, it just shows loading animations. So I just have to cut the power to the TV while I look for the remote.
Hypothetically, of course.
Just because you can't imagine a scenario where it's convenient doesn't mean they don't exist.
No need for this. A Z-Wave or Zigbee thermostat does the same thing.
I have three lights that were wired to one switch. With smart bulbs, I can individually turn them on and off or dim them. No "dumb" solution exists for homes that were wired in a stupid way. This isn't a niche application, it's a common reality.
Imo this is funny because it's actually how bridges are designed
If you stopped at the end of season 1, you stopped at a good time. It's not great beyond that.
The question becomes, then, if I spend 5 years learning and mastering C++ versus rust, which one is going to help me produce a better product in the end?
