- Comment on Home Assistant Connect ZBT-2 - A USB adapter that plugs into your Home Assistant system and opens up a world of smart device options 1 week ago:
The link seems to say Threads support is only available as an add-on and therefore not simple to use with containerised HASS. This would be true for any Threads antenna though.

And while he highlighted some signs of unions reaching more people on platforms like TikTok, the union chief noted a stark fact: “Collectively, the trade union movement has fewer followers on X and Instagram than Nigel Farage on his own.”
“We directly represent five and a half million people, so we’ve got to get much better at using those social media platforms and talking directly to members and potential members,” the TUC head added.

- Comment on Bicyclists are celebrating a new segregated bike lane linking three cities in southern England 3 weeks ago:
Cyclists have hailed a new multi-million pound cycle route as a “gamechanger” as construction nears completion.
The Gloucestershire Cycle Spine, a segregated cycle lane linking Gloucester, Cheltenham and Bishop’s Cleeve, has caused months of disruption but is now due to be finished in March 2026.
A cycling campaign group has hailed the ambitious scheme, which in future could end stretching 26 miles (42km) and all the way to Stroud.
Gloucestershire County Council said the scheme was already causing a boost to the number of people cycling.
The £48m scheme has been criticised after roadworks caused disruption in both Gloucester and Cheltenham.
