Don't use the built in zigbee implementation, your best bet imo would be either a network zigbee adapter or roll your own with a raspberry pi (or equivalent), a sonoff zigbee dongle and zigbee2mqtt.

If you have something like home assistant this can be accomplished pretty easily with a smart plug. If it's something that can be flashed with tasmota or esphome this could be done with just tasker accessing the API.

While we're on the subject of avatars, when I'm using sync I can't see whatever picture it's supposed to be on the account switcher. You think that's related?

Also they hired a cop who built surveillance devices with the platform. It turned a lot of people off from them.

I think he's talking about having a bridge separate from home assistant vs using the zha integration. The former setup will let you control your lights when home assistant is down, the latter will not.

I just moved from the former to the latter and it's life changing lol. Added bonus of moving to z2m is binding devices directly to other devices inputs, like switches and motion sensors.

I've had my eye on this one ever since I saw it on Reddit years ago: https://www.3dchameleon.com/

It uses switches on the z-axis to kick off the filament change, not sure how it deals with stretched filament.

To expand on the mechanics a bit: The land is rented to the homeowner for the duration at like $5 a month, and upon sale (at a fixed price) the equity is split equally with the trust.
