I went a few years without a computer at my desk at home. I lived off a laptop and never sat at my desk with a proper keyboard, mouse, and monitor setup. But as I started working from home more, I wanted a nice, comfortable setup in our office, so I started looking for a computer for my desk.

I settled on a huge, powerful gaming laptop: an MSI GT76 Titan DT

I have really been wanting to get bed occupancy working with Home Assistant for a while. I have some lights around the house that are triggered by motion detectors. Especially for the one in the bedroom, I thought it would be nice if I could disable the motion-activated light whenever someone is in bed.

Additionally, I thought it would be a good idea to disable some other triggers if both of us are in bed (like motion sensors elsewhere in the house that the cat would set off) or disabling turning on the bathroom fan automatically (due to humidity) if someone is sleeping.
