The 13th edition of the Home Assistant Community Highlights! Some interesting

things popped up around our community, we thought was worth sharing.

Do you want to share something for the next edition?

It has probably happened to everyone, you forget to put the wheelie bin on the

street and now you have to wait weeks again before it can be emptied again. There

are already various custom integrations where you can keep track of when the pick-up

days are. But maybe the [Blueprint][week_blueprint] from

[westenberg](https://community.home-assistant.io/u/westenberg), can also help you

to get a notification every time so that you don't forget it.

This week we came across another really cool project from [redphx](https://www.reddit.com/user/redphx/)

that was shared on our [subreddit][reddit] page. A lot of inspiration for those who

are still looking for which actions they want to link to their Aqara Magic Cube.

For those who would like to build a media player in a slightly different style in

Lovelave, this is really a cool project. Edwin turned it into something very special

in the form of an LP record player. How cool is this!? ❤️

On [this website](https://automata.id/record-player/) you will find all information

about this project and how you can build it yourself.

Still looking for a way how you would like to set up your own system dashboard? Maybe

the photo of [Akmantainman](https://www.reddit.com/user/Akmantainman/) will give you

some inspiration to make your own version of this.

Also look in the comments on Reddit, because many people shared their own

version on this post already.
