Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Finally got a phoenix palm taken out of our courtyard. Was ridiculous, crazy how they sneak up on you.

Next stop outdoor Hue lighting

We've got a couple of hue lights inside the house and we're always wanting to expand the collection but they're so bloody expensive.

Seems like there's a few different options that I've seen online that'll work with Hue and Zigbee, but haven't done enough research to know what's best.

I have had several neighbours grow pest trees, I don't actually know what they are called or how to describe them. Normally a pale blotchy trunk, reasonably bright green leaves, with a jagged edge of the leaf. They drop seeds all over the neighbourhood and before you know it the neighbour has their tree in the powerlines.

Not strictly related to your story but it made me think of these horrible trees.

What kind of lighting are you putting in?
