Lithops ID help

Lithops ID help

I just noticed this guy standing out from all my other lithops patterns. I ordered multiple no id mixes, so I didn’t receive this one as a named variety. I am thinking perhaps lithops Lesliei Venteri, but some pictures of this type show evenly spaced dark brown veins, and some show more of a center dark splotch with radiating veins, very starkly contrasting with the tan-grey body like mine shows. Any ideas? I want more of this guy!

Alexa routines in 2026

Hey, so I just discovered that even though the old way the dreame robot used to work with alexa is broken, you can still get it to work the same way if your robot is Matter compatible (the L50, which I have, is Matter compatible and so is the X50, I believe). In the Dreame app, go to “more functions” under settings. Click Matter. Copy the PIN number.

Then do the following:

Open the Alexa app .

Open Devices .

Select the plus .

Select Add Device.

Select the matter icon from the Shortcuts bar.

Select Yes to confirm that you have a Matter device.

Enter the PIN number you copied from the Dreame app and follow the on-screen instructions.

You will need to put your robot in pairing mode by clicking home and power simultaneously for 3 seconds until the light flashes

Once you have done all this, you will see premade alexa routines including room specific orders and vacuum or mop only. You can add different rooms by following the way the kitchen routine is set up. Of course there could be even more commands, and I will let you all know if I find any more!

I am attaching a screenshot of one of the possible alexa routines, as well as all the other available commands

Newish L50 randomly entered a room then left—any idea why?

Hello,

I have been using my dreame L50 every other day for about three weeks. Everything is mapper out satisfactorily. While doing selected room cleaning, before moving to the next room, my robot sat still for a bit, and then ran down a long-non assigned entry hallway, hit the door, then turned around, and ran back to the next room it was supposed to clean like nothing happened. I would just write this up off as a map error, but I could literally watch the robot run into the greyed out unassigned room on the dreame app. So at least some of the software knew it shouldn’t be there. Just making sure this isn’t a sign of worse things to come before my exchange period and warranty run out. Any idea what happened? Thank you very much for your help!
