Add an account for Home Assistant Core called homeassistant.Since this account is only for running Home Assistant Core the extra arguments of -rm is added to create a system account and create a home directory.
Once you have activated the virtual environment (notice the prompt change to (homeassistant) homeassistant@raspberrypi:/srv/homeassistant $) you will need to run the following command to install a required Python package.
Start Home Assistant Core for the first time. This will complete the installation for you, automatically creating the .homeassistant configuration directory in the /home/homeassistant directory, and installing any basic dependencies.
The computers are spread across many locations running different versions of Windows 10, and after much online searching, I've found that the simplest way is to use Powershell to download the Windows 10 update assistant ( =799445 Opens a new window) and run it silently.
It seems that whilst the actual Windows 10 setup.exe file accepts command line switches ( -us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/windows-setup-command-line-opt... Opens a new window) the upgrade assistant file "Windows10Upgrade9252.exe" has no official documentation detailing the command line switches it accepts.
However, I'm looking for more information about what other switches the file will accept. For example, I want to prevent automatic reboot but the "/NoReboot" switch which works for the windows 10 setup.exe file, doesn't work for the upgrade assistant. I've tried running "Windows10Upgrade9252.exe /?", but that just opens the file.
This is so pathetic, microsoft could fix these things. By the way, the /NoRestartUI switchisn't the only problem here. A build upgrade with Upgrade Assistanttakes 3x times longer then the built in windows update. I used this only, when windows update failded to upgrade. But in these cases, many times the Upgrade Assistant and the enablement package from SCCM are failing too. But they are stops with an error only after hours. For example because of a registry entry of a non-existing user profile, or other joke things, and when you fix it, still can't upgrade. Then your only option is the upgrading from a fresh iso file.
The default assistant in the English version was named Clippit, after a paperclip. Although the name Clippit was used in all versions of Microsoft Office that supported the Office Assistant feature, the assistant became commonly referred to by the public as Clippy, a name which later occasionally bled into Microsoft marketing materials.[1][2][3][4] Clippit was the default Assistant, and by far the most notable (partly because in many cases the setup CD was required to install the other assistants), which also led to it being called simply the Microsoft Paperclip.[5] The Office Assistant and particularly Clippit have been the subject of numerous criticisms and parodies. In November 2021, Microsoft officially updated their design of the paperclip emoji (?) on Windows 11 to be Clippit.[6]
The Office Assistant was an intelligent user interface for Microsoft Office. It assisted users by way of an interactive animated character that interfaced with the Office help content. It was included in Microsoft Office for Windows (versions 97 to 2003), in Microsoft Publisher and Microsoft Project (versions 98 to 2003), Microsoft FrontPage (versions 2002 and 2003), and Microsoft Office for Mac (versions 98 to 2004). The default assistant in the English version was named Clippit,[1] after a paperclip.[7][8]
The Office Assistant used technology initially from Microsoft Bob[9] and later Microsoft Agent, offering advice based on Bayesian algorithms.[3] From Office 2000 onward, Microsoft Agent (.acs) replaced the Microsoft Bob-descended Actor (.act) format as the technology supporting the feature. Users can add other assistants to the folder where Office is installed for them to show up in the Office application, or install in the Microsoft Agent folder in System32 folder. Microsoft Agent-based characters have richer forms and colors, and are not enclosed within a boxed window. Furthermore, the Office Assistant could use the Lernout & Hauspie TruVoice Text-to-Speech Engine to provide output speech capabilities to Microsoft Agent, but it required SAPI 4.0. The Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine allowed the Office Assistant to accept speech input.[10]
The default assistant in the English version was called Clippit.[7][8] The character was designed by Kevan J. Atteberry.[8][18] Clippit was by far the most notable Assistant (partly because in many cases the setup CD was required to install the other assistants), which also led to it being called simply the Microsoft Paperclip.[5] The original Clippit from Office 97 was given a new look in Office 2000.
In Office 2000, the Hoverbot, Scribble, and Power Pup assistants were replaced by F1 (a robot), Links (a cat), and Rocky (a dog). The Clippit and Office Logo assistants were also redesigned. The removed assistants later resurfaced as downloadable add-ons.
The Microsoft Office XP Multilingual Pack had two more assistants, Saeko Sensei (Japanese: 冴子先生), an animated secretary, and a version of the Monkey King (Chinese: 孫悟空) for Asian language users in non-Asian Office versions.[19] Native language versions provided additional representations, such as Kairu the dolphin in Japanese.
In 2001, a Microsoft advertising campaign for Office XP included the now-defunct website officeclippy.com, which highlighted the disabling of Clippit in the software. It featured the animated adventures of Clippit (voiced by comedian Gilbert Gottfried) as he learned to cope with unemployment and parodied behaviors of the Office assistant.[31] These videos could be downloaded from Microsoft's website as self-contained Flash Player executables.[31]
On April 1, 2014, Clippit appeared as an Office Assistant in Office Online as part of an April Fools' Day joke.[34] Several days later, an easter egg was found in the then-preview version of Windows Phone 8.1. When asked if she likes Clippit, the personal assistant Cortana would answer "Definitely. He taught me how important it is to listen." or "What's not to like? That guy took a heck of a beating and he's still smiling."[35] Her avatar occasionally turned into a two-dimensional Metro-style Clippit for several seconds. This easter egg is still available in the full release version of the Windows Phone operating system and Windows 10.[36]
In 2015, a music video directed by Chris Bristow was released for Delta Heavy's song Ghost, which features Clippit discovering Shania, a modern voice-activated digital assistant, and later on Clippit becomes angry upon discovering the modern landscape of the world.[39]
I see you guys are working on a home assistant app for Mac OS. There are apps avalable for ios/android, so I think there should be one for windows. Doing so could potentially allow for notifications on the desktop and easy access to HA.
The Windows to Linux replatforming assistant for Microsoft SQL Server Databases service is a scripting tool. It helps you move existing Microsoft SQL Server workloads from a Windows to a Linux operating system. You can use the replatforming assistant with any Windows Server virtual machines (VMs) hosted in the cloud, or with on-premises environments running Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and later. The tool checks for common incompatibilities, exports databases from the Windows VM, and imports into an EC2 instance running Microsoft SQL Server 2017 on Ubuntu 16.04. The automated process results in a ready-to-use Linux VM configured with your selected SQL Server databases that can be used for experimenting and testing.
AWS Systems Manager (Systems Manager) gives you visibility and control of your infrastructure on AWS. The Windows to Linux replatforming assistant for Microsoft SQL Server Databases uses Systems Manager to move your Microsoft SQL databases to Microsoft SQL Server on EC2 Linux. For more information about Systems Manager, see the AWS Systems Manager User Guide.
Windows to Linux replatforming assistant for Microsoft SQL Server Databases allows you to migrate your Microsoft SQL Server databases from an on-premises environment or from an EC2 Windows instance to Microsoft SQL Server 2017 on EC2 Linux using backup and restore. For the destination EC2 Linux instance, you provide either the EC2 instance ID or the EC2 instance type with the subnet ID and EC2 Key Pair.
When you run the PowerShell script for the Windows to Linux replatforming assistant for Microsoft SQL Server Databases on the source Microsoft SQL Server databases, the Windows instance backs up the databases to an encrypted Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) storage bucket. It then restores the backups to an existing Microsoft SQL Server on EC2 Linux instance, or it launches a new Microsoft SQL Server on EC2 Linux instance and restores the backups to the newly created instance. This process can be used to replatform your 2-tier databases running enterprise applications. It also enables you to replicate your database to Microsoft SQL Server on Linux to test the application while the source Microsoft SQL Server remains online. After testing, you can schedule application downtime and rerun the PowerShell backup script during your final cutover.
So the plan was to install google assistant sdk and get textinput working. Downloaded and installed everything and did the google cloud platform thing and everything is working great. I can type "turn off the bedroom light" in cmd and the bedroom light turns off. Now, this works great, don't get me wrong, and I can most likely adapt this to work for what I need. But this requires to boot up an interactive console and then physically type the phrase I want to ask.
But for assistant API, when I create a thread and keep adding messages, since the context window is 128k, so when the window is fullfilled, every turn of conversation will cost me over $1, which is hard to afford for me and my end user.
