Pillars of Eternity. I really appreciate that they must have had some Anthropology majors on the team, especially for II, because the worlds feel much more exotic than other RPGs. It shows up just how generic Medieval Fantasy most RPGs are.The tropical Roparu (?) society with its caste system is particularly interesting. The interaction of the various factions is believable. And of course the pantheon is well though out.The downside is that they can be clumsy about exposition of the world - especially in the first one, you get these enormous lore-dumps.
Bitwarden Authenticator because Bitwarden seems to have a good reputation. I don't use their password manager, though.It does seem faintly insecure that it displays all of the codes at once on one page, but I'm having trouble imagining a scenario where it's actually a problem.
Finally caved in and started playing Slay the Spire. I was resistant because the game looked so ugly. Hideous UI, amateur art, whack animation. Unfortunately, it really is like that - but I understand the game itself is very well-made, so I'll stick with it. I enjoyed Monster Train after all, and it has the same issues.
I have a Reolink PoE camera. It's plugged into Home Assistant, and some setting in the integration had it phoning home constantly looking for updates. I turned that off and now it only connects outside of my network to sync the time.The camera has survived outside for a few years now, so no complaints.
Heads up: by default, HA does not show real-time, full-framerate video - just a snapshot that updates every 10 seconds or whatever. As with all things open source, there is a way to fix it, but you have to faff around. I haven't bothered yet, but it's on my list.
