I must be too old school because my first thought when i read this was “with an old solenoid lying around and a few lines of code, an AtTiny could strike a key on the bluetooth keyboard, waking the laptop!

If a cryptographic claim/validation is provided then anyone refuting the claims can be seen to be a bad faith actor. Voters are one dimension of that problem but mainstream media being able to validate election videos is super important both domestically, but also internationally as the global community needs to see efforts being undertaken to preserve free and fair elections. This is especially true given the consequences if america’s enemies are seen to have been able to steer the election.

have a look at Shelley smart devices. They have a wifi button that’s fully compatible with Home Assistant. Not the cheapest in the world but the quality is excellent. No Zigbee needed.

you might have to install OSMC in a proxmox virtual machine if you can’t do a bare metal install.

i’ve got one and hacked it with an ESP32. it’s awesome, but it’s not a CO2 sensor, it detects fine particles in the air.

do you have a gas meter? surely it would be simpler to capture the operation of the meter either electronically if it’s a smart meter or optically if it has a moving part or dial?

Even if your heating is gas it should be possible to disaggregate that usage by measuring the consumption over a minute or so.

leave the switches in the wall but bridge the cable so it stays on irrespective of the switch position. or join the cables behind it with some terminal block

I’ve got loads of Hive stuff and control it with a mixture of HomeKit, Homeassistant and Grafana/Influx for automation. It does work well once all the integrations are set up and my experience of the hardware has been that it is good.

can you do a Grafana one?

weird that it tried to load libpcre on shutdown too. have you got a wifi sniffer installed? nmap? metasploit?

emacs has got a built in text based adventure “Dunnet” built in

CISSP is an advanced level certification and although you would be expected to have significant experience behind you to succeed in the exam, you can just cram and blag it - the main issue is you won’t be credible as a CISSP without the corresponding experience.

I recommend the CompTIA certs to get a foot in the door and work towards the CISSP after 3-5 years experience. You could also consider the ISACA CISM cert at that level.

Other courses you could consider would be COBIT5 Foundation, ISO 27001 lead implementer, Cloud Auditing certs and ITILv3 foundation which would round out the more practical CompTIA ones and put your CV on top of the pile for entry level roles.
