  Yes, there's Home Assistant that can work completely off-line. You can find multitude tutorials on youtube on how to set it up, even using cheap solutions like Raspberry PI. Source: 9 months ago

• Turned my old 10-year-old android tablet into a wall clock/weather station

  I'm going to suggest- you ever heard of Home Assistant? It's a really useful home automation tool you could integrate with weather and clock on a dashboard. As well, you could use it to control smart devices. Source: 10 months ago

• has anyone done the big move from Spotify or other to Plex?

  As for the "what is playing" detection on my google minis. This is done with "https://home-assistant.io/". Source: 12 months ago

• looking for a decently cheap zigbee hube

  The method that seems to work most reliability with all devices and all ecosystems is a Zigbee2MQTT software hub running on a computer alongside Home Assistant. The Z2M project has a list of compatible USB dongles which are typically around $20-30 (The Sonoff being a good one) but you still need a server (i.e. a small computer like a thin client or raspberry pi) and install and configure the software, so this...

• Game crashing every match.

  Game crashes all the time and you already did all of the above = all aboard the diagnostics train as it may be a number of things, from bad graphics card driver all the way overheating problems or malfunctioning components. Do the easy steps first (clean reinstall of the graphics driver + checking temps, under heavy load, and googling what's the maximum safe temperature for your processor + graphics card, it...

• Why is my PC unbearably feeble despite having decent specs?

  Open Hardware Monitor is pretty simple and solid. Just look through all the statistics for anything that's a temperature and make sure none of them are higher than, say, 50c when idle, or ~80c when you're doing something. Laptops have a slightly wider range of acceptable temperatures so there wouldn't be any immediate cause for alarm if it was slightly hotter than that, as long as you were doing something...
