My morning ritual:
Weekends: stay in bed as long as possible, if it's cold use home assistant to turn on my heater from bed. Get up, have coffee.
Workdays: alarm goes off, turn on heater using home assistant from bed, get out of bed after 10-15 minutes, coffee, shower/etc, go to work.
As for the daily threads, I say yes, automate them. Hopefully it can help make the community more active.
I keep meaning to look into home assistant. I just don't have that many things to automate I guess, but that heater trick sounds neat. I should probably just start with the heaters built in scheduling.
In the past, I’ve configured the heater to turn on automatically (disabling when away or in warmer weather).
It often gets coldest around 5am, so I used to schedule it to come on around 4am and then off at 6:30am.
These days I’ve got different setup (later work start + WFH) and don’t need it, but that method made it so much easier to get out of bed for my early commute for a couple of winters.
