So our Alexa Echo Plus has been working great until our account was hacked. Thinking it was not paired correctly I reset the device. First with the button then with a pin on the bottom. The alexa app will not discover the device. The website alexa.amazon.com login page is missing. Source: 5 months ago
The "old" Tipp to use alexa.amazon.com does not work anymore - at least for me. I cant get to the Alexa Web App. Source: 6 months ago
Edit 1: spent the last 2 hours looking in to what I believe is every possible reddit post related to this issue, I have found out that many have solved it with the web interface using alexa.amazon.com which right now only prompts me to scan a qr code that will open the alexa app on my device thus useless, otherwise there is the possibility to try and connect it as a tap device, which for me does not work, I have...

So, for some reason my 1st gen echo was disconnected and after googling and trying all the fix that I have read both in google and here in reddit, it wont connect to wifi.

The key feature I haven't seen any of these opensource projects implement is microphone response coordination: If you have multiple microphones and speakers, which one responds? My google home's are terrible at this: often one in another room responds, but at least it's only one. When I tried to run Genie (https://genie.stanford.edu/) I had multiple devices responding simultaneously. It was a disaster. For me,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
It's incredibly easy to do (caveat - at least if you're familiar with software dev already). Most thermostats are literally just digital thermometers that control a relay that turns the furnace/ac on and off. A simple arduino (or much cheaper IC) can easily do the same thing if you wire it in. And then on the software side... there's several large, open-source projects that exist in this space and provide nice api... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
Because there's surely enough software available, right (i.e. susi.ai, Mycroft, Kalliope, DeepSpeech, leon, Jasper, Vosk or Genie)? Source: about 2 years ago
On the home assistants, it’s actually a cool solution. What they do is actually use a local ML algorithm to recognize the alert word (hey Google, Alexa, etc.) and only when they hear it do they stream the audio to their inference servers. There are things like almond which is entirely self hosted option I’d like to move to eventually. Source: about 2 years ago
I think a key feature of a smart speaker is the voice assistant. The only privacy aware I know of is Almond (AKA Genie) from Stanford[1].
