Local Access Issue

Hi All, I cannot keep the connection stable to my pi. I put HAOS on a pi5 and I managed to get logged in on the app eventually and everytime I leave and come back it cannot reconnect.

It says it needs to refresh external IP but I only use it locally so I cant see why it would need this and I have location access allowed so it should know I am home.

I am also attempting to access on local IP 8321 and failing.

Home Assistant Green & ZBT-2

Is this a good start? I have a few items connected to a philips hue bridge pro atthe moment. I want to expand to sensors for doors, windows, leaks and move my solar dashboard to HA.

Is this reasonable? I am aiming to get everything as matter if possible going forward and I guess I will only need the hue bridhe for the direct hue products like the sync box.

Pixel Battery Issues

I was full sure I would see battery improvements moving to pixel. Given its their platform and their chipset, I dont understand why it is worse than the midrange samsung I had.

Like way worse, I struggle to get to the end of the day on days I dont drive.

Can anyone explain or do I have an issue.

Returning to FF full time.

Chrome was mandated by work but I have moved s I am back.

I love a lot of it, primarily ad blockers and jave blockers. Chrome was heavy and a data nightmare but it did a good job of having what you wanted up front. My biggest gripe now is probably the favourites.

Chrome lists them and firefox lists them and I never thought it could be bad, its just a list. FF will list 8 of the same domain, so my favourites were all different variations of the same site or two. It only pinned when I edited them as bookmarks. Trying to add a favourite doesnt seem to be possible because the host of selections under the one or two domains blocks others rising to a position I can edit and then pin.

I much prefer FF, in fact I only use chrome where I have forgotten passwords or want a site to load outside of how I configured FF. But these bits do hurt UX.

Anyone help with a viking game from xbox?

I bought an xbox360 years ago with a game stuck in it. I have since lost them but I enjoyed the game. It was large bulky man carrying a sword and possibly shield. I remember there was island type landscapes but I dont remember swimming or anything. Possibly there was dragons but I think I may be inventing that because of other games. It was old timey in terms of setting, castles, sand and stone. I dont remember magic.

Install Issue

Hey so I legitimately own C&C remastered. I cannot find my huge dvd case game and got the repack instead.

I install it on steam using setup.exe and forcing proton 9.something.

I get it to install, it crashes due to some dependency issue. I hope to solve that issue but my main concern is where does it install, why can't I just see it in the list of games in my library? All I see is the setup.exe in the list.

Disclaimer. New to everything mentioned here, linux, steam, repacks pc gaming. The works.
