Depending. But yes. A lot of the time they go the long way around, and head out to some server and back to your local network.
If the internet is down, or the vendor shits off the server, the device stops working.
Home assistant is attempting to localise everything, and get different vendors devices to work together.
Note, for your hass install, it can be installed on any server. Though I am using the green device

Not quite... but there were a lot of john's...
That was really interest.
You could hear the excitement in their post!
I have seen these balls on power lines in Western Australia for decades, and literally only just found out what they were.
They are used (maybe among other things) to understand exactly where a fault has occurred in a mlln outage.
They give you sensor data between substations, and allow the grid operator to better isolate the fault and restore power to the largest possible area, without reenergising the fault.
They use parasitic power transfer to be totally disconnected from any dedicated power supply.
Very cool
Its late... what why 63?
Goes to 3 servos. Pays 11, gets 30 back
That is a really cool idea. We often think of renewable energy as electricity. But this bypasses that.
I hope it catches on, and is affordable.
Up vote for saying bouy correctly!
I think that right to be forgotten is untenable in anything you publicly put into the internet. I know a bit off topic...
Once someone has open access to it (like reddit/lemmy). You are implicitly implying that you want anonymous access of that information to the wider world.
Do you think it is even possible? (BTW, im not being a dick, just interested)
Lightning that travels from the ground to the sky is just freaky.
I think they are now x-cretes
I think the problem with just looking at Canberra is that it can dump or import from NSW and the other parts of the grid, similar to SA, though on a smaller scale.
This looks at the entire network to see what is feasible, without being able to shunt excess generation or import from other networks.
The article said that they are the major shareholder.
