It is #Friday! 🎉

That also means a new patch release for Home Assistant. I've just shipped a bunch of bug fixes in the 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱.𝟭.𝟰 release, which is now available for everyone to install.

Have a good weekend! ✌️

Hey Albert Heijn! As I am one who mostly lives on a plant-based diet, those vegan markers on your price tags are very helpful… 🤔

Thanks NRGWatch for sending over the Itho CVE WiFi add-on module/board designed by Arjen Hiemstra. 🙌

I’ll be installing it into my new Itho central house ventilation system soon and can’t wait to share how it goes.

I’m kicking off 2025 with some bold resolutions—like finally fixing my own “test lab” of a smart home, going all-in on open-source contributions, and publishing more writing than ever.

Do you have any resolutions for 2025?

A bit ago, I wrote about thinking of moving my old defunct site away from WordPress to Ghost... So I did! 😎

Some small things left to do--like actually writing 🙃

But hey! At least I've got something running now that is more fun and inviting to do so!

LOL, #GitHub, how did you know I am awaiting my flight at the gate @ Schiphol Airport? 🛫

I know the gate of my flight changed, but... calling that a problem? 😆

I’ve been scribbling blog posts for months but haven’t published shit 💩

I'm actually not having fun using my blog either. It is slow and bloated with plugins and whatnot... Yeah, it is not WPEngine, but close... 🙃

Thinking about jumping ship to Ghost 👻

I love ghosts...

To everyone who I haven't been able to say it personally yet:

HAPPY NEW YEAR 🥂

A new year, a fresh start, also means I've reset my #OpenSource contribution counter again 😀

I love this thing on my desk; it is my personal physical reminder to keep contributing every day.

🎙️ Recording of the Home Assistant Podcast for the 2024.12 release is a wrap! 🎄

I had an absolute blast with @rkaramandi and Phil—so much so that I took over the show and turned the tables, making them the guests. 😏

Don’t miss this fun (and slightly chaotic) episode!

This month, I want to hear about Home Assistant from 👉 𝗬𝗢𝗨 👈!

From you and the rest of the community, because Home Assistant is made by and for the community.

Once every two years, we drop all our rules, processes, and development habits and give the whole community (including 👉 𝗬𝗢𝗨 👈) the ability to share your thoughts in a simple forum post.

Stand up! Tell me about your missing feature, issue, bug, or annoyance with Home Assistant!

This month is going to be exciting

Pardon my language while I celebrate this moment loudly and with emotions...

HELL F-ING YEAH! 🎉

It took me almost 9 hours today... but the mission was successful, I got all the data recovered 🥳

Still, some work left, but I can access files! 🤗

Nice! A local store had an NVMe in stock (👌 thanks CoolBlue!) 😅

Time to play operation on this machine and install Proxmox. Once up and running, I can try adding back the old NVMe, to see if I can access its data volume in an attempt to rescue some VMs there. 🙏
