It was only a few days ago but I did however get it working. I had an error on npm start that sam in the MM discord helped me solve and then my other problem with it not showing the module was due to me putting "middle-right" when then is not an option. Fixing those two things now makes it work. Thank you for replying!

Sure, I did try npm I stall after cloning to the modules folder per the installation instructions. I did get an error when doing so, which is probably something to post over on the MM forums. I think it has to do with the module not supporting newer versions of something.

I'm really not experienced with raspberry pi but I can copy paste instructions and codes as requested lol.

 

Anyone have experience with this MagicMirror module? I can't get it to talk to HomeAssistant. I realize this may be something to post on MM which I have, just trying both paths as the thread I found was 2 years since the last post.

Interesting. I've not heard of this new battery technology before. Sodium should be much more easily sourced I would think. We'll see, but for the meantime I'll hang onto my phone as long as possible and not buy lithium battery powered vehicles. Most people don't know about the working conditions that those children and adults are exposed to while mining lithium and Cobalt.

The biggest hurdle that needs to be overcome in my own eyes is how we source the precious metals for the batteries. Look up Lithium and Cobalt mines in Africa. Of course this applies to all lithium batteries (phones and cars being the biggest players).

I've been using tasker to manage my ringer profiles for so long I didn't even realize this. When at work (within radius) and connected to the office WiFi the ringer is set to 1 out of 7 level. When out in the manufacturing facility it's disconnected from WiFi and I'm still inside the radius so the ringer goes to 7 out of 7 level. Works like a charm!
