  This gives off a retrofuturistic feel that reminds me of Alien Isolation. I kinda want to see how it would look like in practice attached to a modern Home Assistant system. Maybe that's my excuse to learn ncurses and TTY programming?

    > reminds me of Alien Isolation Probably because the interfaces there were based on the interfaces of the sentry guns of Aliens.

      Get an old TV and make it? Though I guess you'd still need the touch interactions.

        The sentry guns in Aliens used monochrome amber LCD screens.

    Reminds me of Fallout terminals, as well. And that's a good idea. If I ever have a Home Assistant, it's gonna have Fallout-terminal interface.

  Man I want this. Maybe not the old power control hardware, but certainly the interface.
