Can you manage your house with a local, no-cloud voice assistant? Mostly, yes. (arstechnica.com)

You wake up one day with a bad headache, and bright light hurts your eyes. You can close the curtains, but every room is set to turn the lights on to the brightness that you usually prefer.

How do you manage something like this? Do you have to adjust everything with your phone and reset it when you feel better?

Well that's not ever been an issue for me, that said I do have a flat override to disable and set specific values. But that's just one toggle (to disable the lighting automations) and one value (light level).

But my eyes are pretty sensitive to light in general, which is why I like the slow ramp up.
