Anyone know the deal with the rp2040_pwm output component? It exists, but it's undocumented and I can't find any reference to in on the ESPHome website 🤔

If anyone out there uses Home Assistant and the self-hosted voice assistants from Nabu Casa, the latest firmware update (25.11.0) will brick any working devices.

I found that you can use this tool (https://esphome.github.io/home-assistant-voice-pe/?version=25.10.0) to forcibly downgrade your Nabu satellites, which will get them back online.

The tool works in Chromium browsers by plugging the Nabu into your PC by USB-C. Just make sure to clear all user data.

Czy są to specjaliści od ? Przede mną pierwsza próba zbudowania czegoś do automatyzacji. Zanim jednak zacznę zmóżdżać czego dokładnie potrzebuje chciałbym się dowiedzieć w na jakim ekosystemie można takie rozwiązanie oprzeć. Może ktoś coś poleci?

My Dream of a Home Router / Server

What if you could buy off the shelf a box based on #opensource software and hardware that you could plug into your internet connection. You could connect to via Wifi and it would allow an average person to fairly easily configure, via a guided setup, a self hosted Cloud Drive, Social Media server, home automation service, VPN ...

lemmefixdat4u Oh yeah .. Indeed the form factor is definately driving this (along with the Router forum factor devices based on ) - Of course the form factor is kind of irrelevant - I think the key is that its something that you can replace your ISP provided router with - Giving it direct internet connection. All the building blocks seem to be there but maybe just aren't quite there yet. are definately doing things on the device - linking software and hardware, so are with - but the three spheres - Home Automation, Router and Home Server don't seem to have come together completely yet.
