Thank you, yeah might have to try that out

Yeah spending that long on each level would add up fast, I normally go in guns blazing learn the layout and locations of people. Then try and do it Silent Assassin after

Fair enough, Haven't tried Blood Money or any of the older games yet. Might have to check them out at some stage after I hype myself up for them

Thank you for both of your thoughts, looking at the ChromeCast that I have sitting around (fairly new), it doesn't have many problems compared to my 'SmartTV' especially with Ads, Loading and things but yeah it seems to always be selling you the latest TV Show or Movie, or just show me something I've never been interested in watching like Sports.

This could be a helpful thing, as I know I don't always like sharing my Phone Number with people.

It's also the case of people don't look at spam and go 'lets try this random site that people are promoting'

I agree, we don't need another Reddit, we just need to show that it is a better place for people to experience some of what Reddit gives people. Communities and stuff need to be active, especially smaller ones. A lot of gaming communities aren't active on here and would be greatly improved if the gaming scene had a place to go other than Reddit.

Gaming is normally what boosts a lot of communities, websites and projects on the internet to a bigger place and that could be a start for Lemmy / Mbin.

This is exactly what is needed. So many people moved back to Reddit after the first time because of users having years of posts on Reddit allowing for easier search.

Running Home Assistant or any other Bridge is a possibly in the future with something like a raspberry pi but I'm not very smart in that area so it's something I'll have to learn about and build over time.

The reason I'm just purely going for HomeKit at the moment is due to the Apple Eco system being very well known to be easy to set up and use. Some things will obviously have to be done via Home Assistant, such as turning my PC through commands, sensors, or time-based actions.

Matter / Threads is something I have looked slightly into and if I went for a newer Apple HomeHub I know it does have support for those devices. Obviously I'm not only going for turning on and off lights, I hope to have a fully functional home that can be used both smart and dumbly (turning switches off without effecting smart functions).

Thank you for your feedback, I'll have to research Home Assistant more, as well as the overall price per room to do things such as Blinds, Smart TV (w/ AppleTV), Lights (including Switches, and more but this will all not be purchased at once.

Yeah, they almost killed their platform with the API changes and many people moved across when that sort of thing happened. It just sucks that Reddit is still going even to know there are better options out there.
