|  John Ericson joined the room. | 00:09:12 |
| John Ericson | OK how bad a rabbit hole is this stuff? :) | 00:09:21 |
| John Ericson | I got a new "'smart'" windows AC | 00:09:41 |
 @hexa:lossy.network | yes | 00:10:20 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | what are you planning to use? home-assistant? | 00:10:52 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | did you find an integration that supports your AC? | 00:11:04 |
| John Ericson | I am a bit negatively-polarized against home assistent because they hate distros | 00:11:07 |
| John Ericson | (or so I remember) | 00:11:13 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | one guy who works for nabu casa was a bit ugly towards us, but we have since moved on | 00:11:38 |
| John Ericson | ok that's good | 00:11:50 |
| John Ericson | https://www.reddit.com/r/MatterProtocol/comments/1bzjw5n/warning_matter_integration_for_the_midea_u_window/ probably wouldn't work anyways | 00:12:36 |
| John Ericson | I just wish I could drop a private key and ssh to this thing, cause I assume it has wayy exess computing power | 00:12:57 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | midea and matter 😠| 00:12:59 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | got a porta split, which was advertised with matter, but came entirely without it | 00:13:15 |
| John Ericson | a porta split? | 00:13:34 |
| John Ericson | new concept to me | 00:13:39 |
| John Ericson | I know mini-split, window, and all-internal portable | 00:13:47 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | that is the model name | 00:13:51 |
| John Ericson | this is a secret 4th thing? | 00:13:53 |
| John Ericson | ah | 00:13:55 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | so you can first try whether matter works for you | 00:15:12 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | does it have a sticker to pair? | 00:15:24 |
| John Ericson | it didn't work with the google thing because google said I had to buy some other google device to act as a hub | 00:15:49 |
| John Ericson | I didn't try anything with nixos yet | 00:15:53 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | a nest hub most likely 😄 | 00:16:08 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | something something killed by google | 00:16:22 |
| John Ericson | hehe | 00:16:45 |
| John Ericson | fuschia in the home? | 00:17:04 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | in the simplest case the ac has a sticker that you can scan with the home-assistant mobile app to bring it onto your WLAN and into home-assistant | 00:17:08 |
