We have many very high quality local TTS models for English and a handful of non English languages. However, there is none for Romanian.

So I decided to look into how to make one. It turns out it was easier than I expected. Took a week of trial and error and extensive Google usage, but I got it there.

I documented the steps for anyone who might want to reproduce it for other languages. The "secret" is to have 2 phase training, one for adding new, non English tokens to the vocab and then the actual training.

I used XTTS v2 for this (currently in the process of finding the right way to add extra languages to other popular TTS models).

I published everything into a Codeberg repository: https://codeberg.org/eduardm/romanian-tts-xtts-v2

All the code I used is there, to train a new language need to identify the best matching existing token phonetic matching (do not initialise with random) and update the scripts

I hope this helps

Specifically:

  • New building: HTTP Adapter (2x Gear, 4x Scrap Metal, 7500 Science Points). Exposes the on and off state of in-game signals via API and makes webhook calls. Or, in hooman-speak, with a moderate amount of tinkering, it can light up your IRL light bulb when your beavers are low on water. The science cost is also paid only once for all your settlements.

My husband was really into home automation, and I know that he used Home Assistant. He died suddenly and unexpectedly last year. A few days ago, he got an email notice about an upcoming renewal of his Home Assistant Cloud subscription. If it lapses (which it will if I don't intervene since his credit cards are all closed), what will happen?

I know absolutely nothing about Home Assistant, and there's no time for me to learn since the renewal is in only a few days. So right now I just need to figure out if I should get into his account and update the credit card info or if I should just let it lapse.

In-use automations that I know of include lights that come on in the morning and go off at night (both in the house and outside). And he put a link on my phone that I could use to "manually" turn off a particular light that occasionally didn't turn off when it was supposed to.

I know he programmed stuff using Node Red. Does that require the cloud subscription?

He used voice commands through Google a lot, but there are only a couple that I use occasionally, and I could live without them (by removing the controllers and going to manual control). Should I expect that functionality to stop?

I have an automation that turns off all my lights and sets the thermostat when I click a button on my was. Was thinking of adding a shutdown sound to go all with it. Does anyone else have something like that and if so, what sound do you use?

Finally getting around to cameras in Home Assistant. Been putting it off cause it seemed like a rabbit hole.

Want

Local only, no subs

Good night video

Motion detection that doesn't spam me

Been reading and saw CCTV Camera World has ONVIF stuff in their Security Camera Systems section. Anyone using their cams with HA? Work okay? any brand recommendations?

Control the content and get more metadata from Web UI and/or home assistant card.

This started at the Home Assistant community meetup in Cologne. Someone (T-Flow) was wearing a DOOM t-shirt, we got talking about the "will it run DOOM?" meme, and we realized there was no actual reason Home Assistant couldn't join the club.

So I built it.

It's a custom integration that runs the original DOOM (1993) shareware version inside a Lovelace dashboard card, using js-dos (DOSBox compiled to WebAssembly). You install it via HACS, add the card to a dashboard, and you're playing DOOM inside Home Assistant.

Because this is Home Assistant, it behaves like a proper integration. You can automate around it too. Hellish red office lights when DOOM starts, restore the scene when it stops. Completely unnecessary. Very Home Assistant.

And yes, there's an iddqd easter egg. Type it anywhere in the HA interface and a DOOM dialog pops up. God mode :)

To the team of people that created Home Assistant, Alarmo, and ESP Home...WELL DONE. I have just finished fixing my old hard wire system that was dead from a lightning strike with the above apps. I bought a Ring V2 keypad, ESP32 board and used an old Raspberry Pi to host. It works so well and was pretty easy to set up with the help of reddit. Now that i have entered the rabbit hole we will see what comes next!

Hey all,

It’s been a while since my last post about this project: unlocking a Polestar integration for Home Assistant.

Since then, I’ve been in contact with Polestar and members of their cloud features team.

I walked them through the project, what I discovered, and what I’ve built. The initial response was positive, but that does not mean I’ve already been given the green light to release it publicly.

What I can share is that they’re actively looking at how initiatives like this can be supported in the right way, because they recognize there is growing demand for this kind of technical integration. The people I spoke with also understand that many Polestar owners are highly tech-minded and value exactly these kinds of capabilities.

So to be clear: this isn’t a case of “you do this and get blocked immediately,” but they also need time to decide internally how to handle this properly and responsibly. I’ve been asked to wait a few weeks while that process runs.

That’s all for now. Not a huge update, but I wanted to let you know progress is still being made!
