anyone own SwitchBot Blind tilt? Or use it with Coolaroo?

Can the blind tilt rotate 360 degrees multiple times?

I'm thinking of using it with the wand for my Coolaroo shades. If the tilt can rotate 360 degrees multiple times it might work for raising and lowering my shade.

will this mac mini work with bluebubbles? how is bluebubbles going?

I tried proxmox with sonoma on a n100 16gb mini pc. Was a pain to install, still tinkering as I can't get it working 100%. Was able to send a message to one contact but not another, couldn't get group chats to work.

I'm thinking of picking up a macmini7,1 2.6ghz dual core 8gb memory and a 1tb HDD for $50 just for bluebubbles.

I might add a sata? (I saw the video where you can easily add another drive) and run other stuff to tinker with off the macmini later.

I just want to be able to see respond to group chats from Windows and receive 2FA texts.

Worst case, I can always remote into my mac mini and use the imessage app from Windows?

2PM Gen4 - matter or zigbee?

Trying to decide if I should go matter or zigbee. My understanding is matter over wifi is local.

The relay is installed behind light switches in the farthest part of my house. I've put zigbee smart plugs in the same room and adjacent rooms all leading back to my coordinator. Doesn't seem to help as I get the lowest LQI according to Z2M for any zigbee device in that room (the room with the Shelly relay)

Bilt Blue Card worth it for mortgage payments?

I had the old Bilt card, was denied for Palladium.

Thinking about applying for the Blue so I at least get something for paying my mortgage.

Can't think of any other cards I need now (been gardening for a while/stopped chasing SUBS).

Have BOA preferred rewards (won't be nerfed till 2027 for me). Have multiple CCC. Use Paypal Debit for Costco (will max out closer to the nerf)

Thinking of using an inquiry for the Blue just to see what happens and get something at least for paying my mortgage. My mortgage only accepts bank accounts so there's nothing else besides Bilt (I think)

I’m not the only one who hates Synchrony

Have an old card which has been sold/moved around and ended up with Synchrony. Card is nothing special but got a good incentive to spend so I finally used it after many years.

Had to create a new login since card was sold/moved (I forgot what the card originally was)

Tried creating a user name with synchronysucks and ihatesynchrony

Both were taken. Found this amusing.

Hand saw which can fit multiple blades?

Dewalt seems to have different length handles which can accommodate multiple blades.

Some pictures show being able to fit a 12in blade. Not sure how comfortable I would be with that.

I found this instead which seems a bit safer.

This is for DIY projects around the house. I borrowed a hacksaw when I had to cut the flange bolts for a toilet replacement.
