If life is simple is it worth living?

forest edge
tidal bronze
#

I thought complicating simple things is what we all do here.

#

I had to leave my Lenovo clocks behind. ☹️ sucks

night zodiac
#

you're listening on 12348

static schooner
#

I'm willing, and even excited by, doing something complicated to simplify my life

#

It pays dividends, and I think it's the reason that HA exists

clear ferry
night zodiac
#

I thought those were meant to be the same

clear ferry
#

so 443 -> 12348 -> 12345 -> service port

#

ports can be anything you want my boy

static schooner
#

99999999

night zodiac
#

yeah, but for it to match the pass

#

Idk, nvm

#

🙂

clear ferry
#

because the stream directive and the http directive can't listen to the same port

#

stream listens to 12348

night zodiac
clear ferry
#

http listens to 12345

night zodiac
#

figured that's where you were

clear ferry
#

yes

#

the defines two upstreams, those could be any ports, but they are 22\443 there, in my that was 22\12345

#

and the listen directive would be from the outside coming in

#

but SHRUG

#

that is all within the stream directive

I just have no interest in data mining for that, just to keep track of whether they're working or need attention

forest edge

I track how many times each cat uses it in a 24 hour period but thats about it

I don't do anything with long term stats in general

night zodiac

what about in off-topic

static schooner
#

Yeah, my horizon is about a day.

#

I do see that they're both using it, but how often isn't really an issue

keen bridge
#

I thought the meow/knock sound automation was a neat thing from that thread

#

Nobody is actually using the data 😂

#

Though someone suggested auto ordering cat litter

static schooner
#

The air freshener is a good idea

#

Or turning on a fan

forest edge
#

counter entered at the start of a new box of trash bags that auto counts down with each change wouldn't be a bad one

static schooner
#

Speaking of that, need to order some

white shale
#

Where can I get help regarding Hacs custom integrations?

keen bridge
#

The fan or air freshener idea is fine, but there needs to be a delay after the cat exits the litter box to avoid them getting cranky

tidal bronze
#

Air freshener is pretty useful. Been running that automation for ages.

forest edge
#

we're talking about cats.. not your dirty ass on the shitter

tidal bronze
#

I meant the entire house

forest edge
#

you air freshen the entire house?

do i wanna know why..

I have air fresheners and some of those diffusers that you can add some essential oils to

tidal bronze
#

Of course. You don't?

keen bridge

I run them for short periods throughout the day to help prompt my brain that it's time for X, e.g. lavender before bed. It's a weird brain trick but it works

These are battery operated, touch to lift/drop. But pretty common.

yay blueprints, I don't want to do a billion steps to use dimmers on these little ikea remotes

i've yet to use a blueprint.

I used one that was built in

but I have yet to download one from forums or such but I am about to because it is a crazy amount of work to do for all of these things

shrewd veldt
#

Those are good blueprints, I use one for my STYRBAR

night zodiac
#

I'm actually using one of each of the built in blueprints. the motion activated light and zone notification

#

nice jumbers, does that have dimming?

#

I wasn't expecting so much work to enable hold to dim 😛

shrewd veldt
#

You can make it do dimming if you want. It has single press, long press, release, and double press. I have a long press action that ups the brightness and then delays 500ms which keeps getting triggered until you release it

night zodiac
#

I meant your device. neat

#

yeah, I don't want the virtual double press. I went to remove it from yaml before seeing they already made it optional. perfect

shrewd veldt
#

I crammed a lot of stuff into that blueprint. Single press up/down are just on/off, holding up/down increases/decreases brightness, double press up is max brightness, double press down fades off over 5 minutes, double press left/right switches between color temp and RGB modes, holding left/right will cycle through the different RGB colors or color temps depending on what mode it's currently in, and single left/right will just single step through them

night zodiac

Double tap max brightness is a good idea

Generally speaking I would never shrink a volume, but it usually works, and I'm guessing it's an SSD?

Should be fairly quick

It takes however long is needed to move the data

But you of course have backups ? Right

Hours to days based on my previous Googling

midnight adder

I do have backups. It's been running for about an hour.

I'd say if it isn't done in a few hours, just stop, recreate partitions and copy backup back

But again, shrinking is ... Eeeeeeh

Not all filesystems will have a good time

Same with rolling out PT

forest edge
#

nah there are videos on it where they are wanting to eventually prohibit private cars

#

even that article i linked kind of hinted towards that

#

think that article though touched more on the removal of parking spaces etc tho

umbral cliff
#

And that goal will most likely never be reached. An idiot would know that

#

Reducing the number of cars, and encouraging people to take public transport is a smart idea

#

Or just cycle/ walk

#

If you can get to what you need then you really don't need a car. Just rent one for the times you do need

forest edge
#

removing freedoms is a smart idea? wut?

umbral cliff
#

They're not saying you're stuck indoors?

forest edge
#

exactly what the videos were sounding like

umbral cliff
#

You're free to go places, just avoid using cars

#

As I said, if you can get to what you need normally without a car, then rent one for the times you do need one

#

A car isn't your only way to move you know

#

You have legs

glacial knot
#

also, do so by making the alternatives better, instead of cars worse

umbral cliff
#

You can have bikes

#

You can use public transport

forest edge
#

you would support the removal of the ability to own a car lol

umbral cliff
#

If i could get around without a car yes

#

Why not

glacial knot
umbral cliff
#

Its cheaper, and easier

forest edge
#

thats you

umbral cliff
#

thats a lot of people

forest edge
#

don't enforce that on others

umbral cliff
#

I love driving, if I needed to drive just rent a car

#

Or ultimately, just reduce a need to own a car and people would get rid of them

glacial knot
#

most people in cities really don't need cars

umbral cliff
#

Only reason I drive to work is because I'm lazy and want to sleep an extra 15 min instead of spending that 15 min on a bus (plus I usually give a colleague a lift home on the way back too)

glacial knot
#

yea, I'd still keep one around for weather reasons. And potential of being slightly under the weather
but I avoid using my car for trips within the municipal area either way

umbral cliff
#

Whenever I go to the city here I either catch the tram, or ride an eScooter lol

#

Both get me in easily, and I don't have to find a park

glacial knot
#

I tend to park on office spaces when I'm in the city outside usual business hours 😂

forest edge
#

they should convert one of those small islands that are uninhabited and just ship the non drivers there lol

glacial knot
#

just need to know which parking spots are "free" to use

umbral cliff
glacial knot
#

I just use the ones of my current and former employer. Or a friend's company

#

they only gate them here when it's proper car parks. Not for only a couple spots

umbral cliff
forest edge
#

according to that plan in sccotland they would remove all ability to have a car, as in no parking spots or anything

#

you just gonna have a car sit in a garage and rot? lol

umbral cliff
#

Ever take road trips? Thats a use for a car

#

And what I would keep one for

forest edge
#

in essence they are forcing an ability out

umbral cliff
#

The article you linked just said they would reduce the carparks where they could

forest edge
#

it was just the start

umbral cliff

like i said, ship you to the island lol

umbral cliff

I am on an island

I have also said I still like driving

#

I will drive if I'm lazy

#

But if it was 5 mins away there would be little point

#

Be quite excessive

forest edge
#

oh so you want to keep the freedom of having a choice now?

#

make up your mind lol

umbral cliff
#

Yes have choice, but make it better for walking/cycling/PT

#

Because guess what you can encourage people to not drive

forest edge
#

removing any place to park is removing choice

glacial knot
#

people don't realize how annoying driving is for short distances until they have alternatives 😮

umbral cliff
#

Okay they can keep 5 carpark spots

#

Keeps parking an option

#

Make 4/5 disabled spots

#

Theres choice mindblown

soo, ical is driving me crazy. Does anyone know how to get ATTACH working with it?

dusky plank
#

Attach?

golden wing
#

I'm looking at getting a Super Feeder to replace my PetSafe Smart Feed, I was thinking I could just get the Super Feeder, chop up the input cable, squeeze a Shelly in, and boom instant wifi smart feeder. It's just got one of these cables for power input:

#

so i was thinking a circuit like this would work for what i'd like to do:

#

of course replace the battery with the adapter like stated in the asterisks in the photo

#

would this work, or should i just get a wifi plug and use it instead

clear ferry
#

Both will work

#

The former less effort

#

But with an esp you can add features

#

Like weight of bowl

#

Or camera

#

Temperature

golden wing
#

i think designing an esp system like that is beyond the scope of what i'd like to do, all i need is the same thing that my petsafe does already: feed on a timer with occasional remote manual feeding as well

#

just local control and not trying to phone home

clear ferry
#

You can make the PoC outside of the feeder itself and then implement it at a later point

golden wing
#

true

forest edge
#

dosen't it already have like a timer built in?

glacial knot
# dusky plank Attach?

Yes, I want to create events from a website I scrape and link to the event as attachement

#

And support seems to be spotty

golden wing
#

i think there's some kind of built in timer circuit to prevent duplicate signals, but no built in schedule or anything

#

it's meant to be used with an external timer of some kind

forest edge
#

i would just use a smart plug. they even say that on the site

#

would be the easiest route

golden wing
#

yeah i know that would be easiest, and shelly also makes a smart plug, but i was just wondering if using a relay as part of the dc input to the machine would be a cheaper solution

#

shelly's smart plug, at least, is more expensive than their relay i'd be using

forest edge
#

so don't use the shelly smart plug. there are tons of options with smart plugs

#

the hopper on that thing is super simple, one could 3d print extensions lol

golden wing
forest edge
#

your running HA right?

golden wing
#

yeah

forest edge
#

I would just use HA to control it

#

and not use the relay

golden wing
#

??? the feeder itself has no smart functionality

#

you supply power and it feeds

forest edge
#

I will say the vice president of that company looks like a child sex offender

forest edge
golden wing
#

right, or relay + ha = smart functionality too

forest edge
#

not sure how the relay fits into that

#

the relay seems to only add a built in timer

golden wing
golden wing
#

actually more capable than the plugs

forest edge
#

if your talking about like a shelly 1pm

#

why would you mess with that when a smart plug does the same thing and is easier?

golden wing
#

a shelly 1 non ul is $15

forest edge
#

smart plugs can be low as 7 bucks

#

do what you want, but the relay route just seems extra work for no gain

golden wing
#

i mean the gain for me is that i can hide the relay somewhere rather than have an ugly extended wall wart

forest edge
#

i dunno that bottom compartment looks kind of small

#

not sure if like a shelly would fit

#

width wise sure, but depth

golden wing
#

maybe not fitting into any compartment of the feeder itself but having the option to put it somewhere on the cable rather than having a wall wart coming an extra inch away from the wall

forest edge
#

a shelly exposed?

#

gross

golden wing
#

i mean it wouldn't be exposed

#

i'd wrap it in something

#

or 3d print an enclosure to snap around it

forest edge
#

sounds like a fire or electrocuted cat story to me lol

golden wing
#

right... because consumer electronics aren't literally just wires in enclosures

last cedar
glacial knot
golden wing
forest edge
glacial knot
#

well, I think it might be arguable to call traces on PCBs wires. Even if they have the exact same function

golden wing
forest edge
#

you would just hook it up normally. the machine and the shelly run off the same so using the O to power the machine is perfectly fine
