Thanks , I just reposted it . <| sep |> Ha bridge and a raspberry pi adds so much functionality to to the echo and the harmony hub . I have my echo controlling tv channels , volume , projector , robot vacuum , infrared rgb lights . It ' s easy to set up and should cost around 30 . The harmony activity stuff is pathetic in my opinion . Ha bridge turns it into the device it should have been in the first place . I also run scripts on my pi to automate certain functions without having to use the echo to trigger them . <| sep |> Well . we haven ' t yet had another Civil War at least . And all wars since don ' t come anywhere close to percapita mortality rates of US citizens . The Civil War was really , really bad . The US deaths in that one war alone solider , civilian probably hasn ' t been surpassed by ALL other US wars combined .
