My Time with my “Smart Room”

My time with my smart room has been nice. This is the only room in this house that is smart since nobody else wants it this way. In my room, I have Philps Hue White BT without a bridge. I have one paired in the google home app, but the rest I cant get to pair. In the room, I have a Lenovo Smart Clock, and 5 TP-Link Kasa Smart Outlets. 1, Table Lamp, 2 Desk Lamp, 3 my Dell Optiplex 745, a PC from 2007 that I installed Linux Mint, I am planning to expand storage with an SSD and put in more ram at some point. It has an Intel Cre 2 Duo so should work Linux Mint 20 since its 64-Bit Only. 4, My Fan, 5, my bed headboard lamp. It’s nice being able to use a single voice command when I Get Here, Leave, Wake Up, Go to bed and have everything done for me by a robot. The only problems I have with it is the LightSwitch + Smart Light Bulb Conflict, and the internet being down, though I can use the Philps Hue BT app. and the buttons on the smart outlets, though they should still work on the app when on the local network. I have been using smart things for basic automation, IFTTT, and I am planning on using the upcoming Google Home routines being triggered by smart home devices. We might get a nest video doorbell, package detection will be nice. Google Said: Were excited to announce that your Google Nest Hello video doorbell can now learn to detect packages left in its view and send you notifications when a package is delivered or retrieved. We might also get a smart camera system like alro or nest.
