I can only guess you don't have a clue what you're talking about.


Bad assumption.


But one he makes over and over about pretty well everything
(especially if Google tells him so).

The Philips Hue system does it using wifi and bluetooth.


And much of my stuff is Zigbee (as is Philips Hue I believe).

But did you see the fuss the DickHeadxx made (and is still making)
about my *choice* to move away from the RPi as a platform for Home
Assistant because of his *insistence* that you could set one up to not
write to the uSD card, even though logging is very much part of what I
wanted my system for! Because *he* didn't see the point,


I very much saw the point. You could have saved the log file to any
attached or network storage but didn't seem to know how.

I was wrong
(apparently)? Of course, I take no notice of his narcissistic drool


Yes you were wrong to make the statement, "I think the RPi is not
considered the best choice for a serious / long term system is that it
runs on an SD and that's not good for long term writes".

You didn't think and anyone with knowledge about the Pi would have known
this was a lie.

It's now currently running very smoothly on an 4GN Odroid N2+ with a
64GB eMMC and that has a 'wear indicator' so I can keep an eye on it
(currently sitting at zero etc).


Not particularly cheap. You could have fitted a 500GB portable hard
drive to your Pi for greater life-expectancy and reduced cost.
