Let people talk, I found it interesting too

Yeah, I think this whole survey is written in a somewhat suggestive way. Even more important to fill it out

I probably can’t remember much aside my own countries history, and even if I wouldn’t be able to give exact years and such. Luckily the whole of English Wikipedia (text-only) is roughly 100GB so I would probably distribute the records or requested articles via the black market. Also, this is basically how people in Cuba get access to internet content.

“Doch” is more like a logical “not” (¬).

Example:

Alice: "Bob, you don’t like apples. Bob: “Doch” (Bob likes apples)

Wow, this is more than mildly interesting! Does anybody know why the north and south bound trains use different stations?

The only case I would imagine someone trying to guess/brute force the PIN using fingerprints is some sort of state level actor trying to gain access, e.g. during a search warrant

Im ashamed for who has become our chancellor. Flying around in his private “middle-class” jet while taxing the poor. Jfc Friedrich, step back

Congrats, its a daemon!

In the city OP is living (I can tell from the ticket portal) there exists a physical card for regular Deutschland Tickets and you are free to choose from various providers with differing integrations and apps if you don’t want to buy it from the local transport authority. The corporate portal OP needs to use (due to his employer subsidizing the ticket) only offers a digital version that can be saved to Google/Apple Wallet, though. There are plenty of third party wallet apps allowing you to scan and store QR codes but the Deutschland Ticket renews on a monthly basis, which I think sadly requires a more sophisticated wallet app like Google/Apple wallet as the QR code changes each time the ticket renews

I just found a workaround - not sure why it works, I found out via trial and error, but I’m currently reporting to Eve support.

It seems the blinds cannot complete setup via Home Assistant and OTBR and get stuck in a state where they are successfully paired with HA but do not expose any controls (yet). In order to get the controls to show up, it seems to be necessary to complete some more setup steps via the Eve iOS app.

What worked for me is the following:

1. Pair the blinds with HA using Matter/OTBR
2. Generate a matter code via the Matter integration so the blinds can be added to another hub
3. Add the blinds via the newly generated code to an Apple Home hub, e.g. an Apple TV or Home Pod. The device does not need to support Thread as this is still handled by your Home Assistant. If you are exposing your devices to Apple Home via the Apple Home integration, you should see the same blinds twice, this is intended (one comes from the integration and the other one is connected directly to the Apple Home hub)
4. The Eve app should now be able to discover the blinds and offer you to complete setup
5. The blinds should now expose their respective controls in HA
6. You may now remove the duplicate blinds from your Apple Home hub (not the one paired via HA)

Hope this helps!

Cheers

Thanks again for the detailed explanation, I think there might indeed be some confusion on my side as I’m fairly new to the ecosystem.

There is also a way to pair devices with the HomeKit integration, and not directly through the Thread border router.

I’ll definitely try this when I’m home, I didn’t know you could pair devices via the HomeKit integration too. And yes, currently my blinds are connected via the Matter integration and the Thread Border Router/ZBT-1.

Thanks, I didn’t know exposing controls was another thing for itself. The integration requires the blinds to be used with a bridge, however I was always able to use the blinds without one directly over Thread. What I don’t get is why the controls have been working in Apple Home but don’t in HA.
