The raccoon I got yesterday?
Well I already had one
And a brown one
That I forgot about because my head is full of raccoon memes
They are on a heist right now
Lock up your doormats
i'll prep the grinder
Vietnam PTSD raccoon
Overdosed on snacks
Spot the person who has never seen a Stokke Tripp Trapp chair or their clones
i see shinobi has come a long way. may have to give that a go
Sounds Ikea
Since germs love design i thought you would have had it
Might be Scandinavia only
Lol it even had a German name in the US
Tripp Trapp (formerly known as KinderZeat in North America) is an adjustable wooden high chair for children. It was developed by the Norwegian furniture designer Peter Opsvik for the company Stokke AS. Launched in 1972, over time it became a best-selling item. Peter Opsvik is also the designer, in cooperation with Hans Christian Mengshoel, of th...
Think I could break it out and get it working? Get a sneak peak of the new electric G-Class HERE: https://youtu.be/QC6Q4Fge3uE
Awesome! Someone managed to send an email to the entire company and now everyones inbox is flooded by people replying to all saying they want out of the chain.
Next step is people replying to all to tell people to stop replying to all.
Try that again with 310000 employees @low harness
We've had it twice in the HP days, they shut off the servers in the end
i've never seen that
Found one of Michelles anonymous trash eater conventions.
I think someone deleted the mailing list they were using now.
But this actually happened back when we were part of ABB as well. 200k+ employees.
OH MY GOD I WANT THEM ALL
I want to reverse engineer the wired communication of my alarm system... and so far I couldn't even manage to open the case of one of the sensors >_<
I'm also not entirely sure how to RE the protocol safely
where "safely" doesn't only mean "make sure I don't short it out and burn it when plugging an arduino to it"
but also "convince my family that I'm not going to short it out and burn it" and that seems very hard
There's loads of articles out there that cover it, but if you want help here I'd start by asking in #diy-archived - with actual details of the alarm system
Also, many of them use one of a handful of standard protocols that are already known
It's X-28, created in Argentina, the protocol is MPXH, there's zero info online
Months ago they finally released a module to connect it to Wi-Fi, but it's completely cloud-based
And a year ago I knew that module was coming, because the company they outsourced the mobile app development to left a public Trello online >.>
Sounds like they are security first
Ordered a Kia Niro EV as a works car... now I have to sort a charger!
The niro ev is interesting
It even has a button to reset the 12v system
Because it randomly fails

Is this the new one?
at least the 2020 one
I hate Google
Hm?
as much free shit google provides. a one time 5 buck fee for access certian api functions is not absurd lol
I think it's ridiculous that in order to control my $300 thermostat I have to pay extra fees
You kids and your thermostats
it gives you access to way more than just that
$4.99 of the $5 goes to directly improving the quality of life for raccoons, it is a great cause
I hope this one is better hehe!
I want a refund damnit
Hell Freezes Over is still probably one of the best live albums ever recorded

Maybe it's just you 👀

aren't those just called repeaters?
those tiktok clips showcasing the massive looting of those walmart stores that are closing in chicago are insane
last time i seen something that wrecked was the riot footage in la
anyone like the history of spycraft?
RFID at its finest https://youtu.be/NLDpWrwijE8
How did a Mysterious Microwave Bugging Device operate secretly for SEVEN YEARS inside the US Ambassador's study in Moscow with NO power source? As I'm an inquisitive and practical sort of chap, I MADE one for a BBC TV series with Professor Hannah Fry to discover EXACTLY How It Works!
In this episode of Machining and Microwaves, I do a deep tech...
from 1945 til 1952 the soviets had an rfid chip inside the Us ambassador's home in Moscov. No wires, no batteries, no moving parts.
guess you could say he was into home automation by proxy ^^
couldn't get far into that.. almost made me fall asleep in my chair
I can only upload photos here) Im wondering if in home assistant I could make it so if any of my smoke detectors go off that a page will take over and can display something like this?
a page on your phone? no and not the right channel to ask about that stuff
Where should I ask? I can’t send photos on the other channels. And like inside the HA app
you could try asking in one of the app channels. you can use an image hosting service to share an image through url in any channel
.imgur
🤔 I thought that's a bot command
Anyways, link pictures from outside, have a short description.
#general-archived if you have no idea. There's #android-archived and #ios_and_mac-archived as well.
Oof giving control to HA to trigger the built in camera sirens on reolink cameras is whacky lol
They're now / message commands

Hmm, /me is wondering if I should write an admission controller that does ephemeral users on a k8s level 🤔
I hate allocating UIDs by hand...
@forest edge can you check what a first class ticket would cost to Stockholm Arlanda for 1 raccoon, you will have to catch the next one and fly it to me
nerd thinks you are talking to him lol
plane ticket? you nuts.. I know it will stuff into an envelope if I push hard enough
Not even flying private
I know what it costs, I've flown into Arlanda lol
Arlanda is an ok airport imho
I prefer Schipol any day though
Or Munchen
Frankfurt is also ok
CDG can take a piss
Are you also a raccoon?
I created this for a different site so that people would stop asking about my screen name, Meat Popsicle.
You beat me to it
This is literally what I tell people
😂🤣

my cameras just get pictures of a fat bald bloke
i just see @last cedar snooping around at night
this is a full AP + camera

I see those from time to time but there's a clique of cats that live around here and they set trip
Sorry you had that experience. The beginning had the gist of it all down so you're good
and cut
Serious question:
Is it ever okay to not say sorry when you have fucked up really bad?
I am waiting for an apology and want to know if anyone has any other input that I haven't thought off? I can only think of "covering my ass, not admitting guilt and don't think I have done anything wrong" as the only (unacxeptable) reasons
Work related?
still trying to get my head around people actually apologizing on that side of the pond
I can't think of a single situation where that would be okay if the other person was hurt by it
Yes
Tell their manager and managers manager
Not sure the other party is human 🤣
It is my manager and managers manager, this is the issue
Are you arguing with chatgpt again?
Oh fuuuuck
I could go to the VD but I don't believe that he will believe me over 3 of his managers
still mad about the job given to someone else?
Partly, this is another thing, but the guy cheated on his test to get certified
There is so much shit that goes on at work bur no one believes me lol
o.Ô
Documentation
When are you changing jobs @last cedar ?
Easy to say that you should go full Karen about it, and ask to talk to the manager's manager's manager, but unless you have some evidence it's hard to see how that would work out well. People suck sometimes
So my branch manager thought I had broken company policy and said it was grounds for termination, and hr backed her up. No one informed me of the meeting, so I hadn't contacted the trade union.
The day after my branch manager followed me and I refused to speak to her, I ended up leaving the building as to avoid an altercation.
The regional manager then thought it wasn't okay that I wrote in an email that I wanted the notes from the meeting, and that this situation meant I had no trust for the company and he basically tried to tare me a new poo hole, and I just told him to fuck off basically. He spoke to both manager and HR and they deny it, and he doesn't believe me.
And neither hr or branch manager will say sorry or acknowledge it happened
Now I am being frozen out of new courses and such because I said I was going to leave if I can't trust them
Sounds like union food if you don't want to escalate it higher, or just find another company
There is nothing that really gets my juices flowing, I really like involved fault finding and the other companies within any reasonable distance don't have this level of involved fucked up alarm systems. I may end up having to change branches tbh
Møve tæ nårwæy
I have spoken to another company already, which is a multi year install, so that could be very very boring
An english speaking country would be better I think, I feel very restricted speaking in Swedish and with all the shit that keeps happening to me at workplaces I think I don't get my point across well
Either that or I have astronomically bad luck with employers
Maybe being so ashamed of how bad you fucked up, that you would rather burry the topic than apologize?
The regional manager then thought it wasn't okay that I wrote in an email that I wanted the notes from the meeting, and that this situation meant I had no trust for the company and he basically tried to tare me a new poo hole, and I just told him to fuck off basically. He spoke to both manager and HR and they deny it, and he doesn't believe me.
Respond to him next time, that its not okay that he has no trust into the employee.
Are there raccoons in Norway?
see in my day.. none of this touchy feely stuff ever took place. if someone lied or shafted another co worker one of two things would generally happen.. someone would leave the company or someone would leave the company and lawyer up
Unfortunately not 😦
That makes perfect sense
I was also told it would "change the tone of meetings" if I recorded them, in the future. And I replied that was the whole point 🤣
"good"
Now I think about it, maybe they think I will record them saying sorry, which would be evidence that they broke my trust
Maybe this is all my fault /s
is trust reasonable grounds for something there?
Reasonable grounds for what?
well like here, pretty sure trust isn't reasonable grounds for collecting unemployment
Might be you are stirring up trouble with everyone, being a filthy racoon you know
Not at all, I can't be fired, they just threatened me, because when they actually investigated they realised I didn't/ hadn't done anything wrong
The only way I could be fired is if others that were employed after me were also fired, and I wouldn't give them the satisdaction of quitting before I had something else lined up
so right now the only impact on your job is the courses you said they frozen?
Lol, I seem to stir up trouble without really trying.
Fun fact, Norwegians don't care if you don't speak Norwegian, we just talk English to you
Sounds exactly what a raccoon would do
Pretty much, but as a whole, less experienced people are being promoted and I am going backwards in some certs, that are expiring and not being renewed
I have been the naughty raccoon that has been sugguesting changes and improvements
how dare you
Like office having a door so we can actually speak to customers and work whilst the nice suits from the upper floor grind their coffee, right next to our office....
I know!
But how else would the management be able to spy on you, if you are working or not?
But thank you everyone, I have been overthinking it, and they are just arseholes
Not sure if this has already started but we have specifically been told we should be out working, not sat in the office working
lol
They don't realise I have set up 2 of my own computers, as a router and workstation to remote into about 100 customers so I can work about 20x faster than visiting each customer and doing it by hand
here in that scenario if a company did that without reasonable grounds it's discrimination which is unlawful
It is here too, I "just" have to prove it
i am not 100% sure but anymore here I think it's the other way around lol
they would have to prove why not sending you through courses wasn't discrimination
I should really speak to another company before I go too far down this road, but I have thought about "whistleblowing" over the VD, directly to the owning company
And going to the discrimination board would also be quite fun
But obviously I wouldn't ever be able to work there again, it would just be too awkward
find another company to work for first, before you throw shit at the fan
pssh.. you gotta drop that whole "care" aspect
Mostly make money yes, I have friends, but I am naturally wary of people, but I do like a few people who work there
if I left a company on unfavorable grounds that allowed me to return back if in a pinch.. guess who's coming back?
I have only left 1 (left 3 total) on good terms, I could never see myself going back to either of those 2
The other 2 were because of discrimination because of being trans, so it was fairly specific, but I do get your point
I have to sleep now anyway, so I can get up early and earn the companies shareholders some phat dividens, whilst I make just enough to pay my bills. Gn all!
And thank you all, again
sleep well !
thats why you have to become a shareholder instead of a worker
just short parking spaces
I didn't realize how long my Audi S5 is until I had a Nissan Kicks as a loaner and so much of my garage was empty when parked in there
kicks.. wasn't that the little jeep looking thing?
it's a "compact SUV", which is more like a hatchback
wow yea those were small
I hadn't heard of it before I got one as a rental
those things were so small a single person could roll it over lol
I considered it to be like a gocart, where I just push the gas pedal to the floor at almost all times
A5 is quite tiny though
wait.. i think i am thinking of the sidekick
something like 122hp
But I'm used to station wagons
ah ya i fubared that right up.. i was thinking of the Suzuki sidekick
completely diffrent
The A5 was longer than I expected
Probably because it is so low
My old 00 a8l was 5.2 i think
The newer one is even longer
I have offers on two rack cases. One is 12 bay 3.5 hotswap with sas backplane, the other one 12 bay with sata connectors. For home use what is the best and why? (Going to run unraid zfs)
Sata
its cheaper
Sas drives are plenty
If I am not going to use sas drives then? I have a bunch og 10TB regular drives
Sas backplane supports sas and Sata drives
Sata backplane supports sata drives
Sas controllers are 200NOK
The one I got offer on using 8643 interface. Doesnt tell me anything
More horsepower than my car lol
8643 is pretty unconventional for a backplane
Chinese cheap racks
Just an older sedan with a smaller engine
Don't need anything else
122hp is plenty to be fair
Doesn't matter much, you get adapter cables from and to any sas
average here is between 180-300
yet you still only go 50-60 km/h in the city and maybe 120 on the highway
not for cruising speed.. it's for the lets enter onto the highway umph
lol this just reminded me how scary it was to get onto the highway when i use to ride a little 200 cc bike
You can easily get up to 100kmh for a highway with a 100hp car
Its not that bad
I think my Honda Accord from 1987 had ~120hp. I like at least 300
4-6 extra seconds is a lot longer than it sounds lol
I had to drive very differently with that Kicks not knowing whether I could get up speed following a turn
lol
I have no such issue with my S5
And the steering was like driving a grocery cart
Yeah except I've had no issues joining a 100kmh freeway
Or even joining a 110kmh freeway where its just a standard immediate intersection to join the freeway
your roads are likely laid out differently. here the merge lane can be quite short
not to mention not everyone is polite in letting people in lol
I also like some speed to get out the way of other drivers doing stupid stuff, or that I expect will do stupid stuff
This road is 110kmh
No trouble joining when it's a standard left turn
There is no merge lane
that guy will merge out of that exit only lane at the last possible second
that looks to me like you just barrel out onto the highway and hope the person coming up on you slows down before plowing into your rear
Nup, it's stop and check and then go
And accelerate
same dif
Much of driving is predicting what others will do and getting out of the way of potential trouble
i would NOT want to be in a putter for those intersections lol
I have no problems with it
Maybe American drivers are just shits who want to be in an accident
I mean you are merging from a dead stop into a 70mph highway. even assuming there is no blind hills or anything blocking oncoming traffic on the highway 70mph is still pretty fast and closes in on a dead stop to slowly accelerating target
it's just common sense
sorry i mean physics lol
Ideally drivers on the highway will see you and move over
assuming there is no blind hills lol
it also helps to get up to speed as fast as possible lol

@clear ferry where do you buy your esp32s? Other side of the world?
Norwegian or English days?

Would like some that support the camera (doesn't have to be the same model!!)
I bought an ESP32 dev board on Amazon in December when I was in the US for vacation
I still didn't get it out of the package :x

This is me IRL. I have 6x12TB disks just sitting (for over a year now) for my new NAS 🤣
btw, weather is lovely in denmark, 19c and green grass
compared to 2m snow piles and 4c in tromsø
This one looks awesome
Ok I wouldn't have that problem because my data expands to fill all storage available, paraphrasing that Murphy's law
What do you do if you want a lot of IO, mostly I and a little O (inputs from an alarm system that can't be integrated to HA)?
that one has 16 IOs
let me find the board I use for my alarm POC
There is also DIN rail mounts
All the io feeds straight into HA with esp right?
That 38 board and terminal block looks SWEET
if you want yes, you can also manipulate it locally with esphome
i.e you can send pinX to HA as a sensor and do pinY triggers pinZ high locally without notifying HA
if my memory is right, it's been a while since I played with it
fun fact, I'm actually working on an industrial ethernet network now, with a couple of thousand PLCs and other stuff
That sounds really flexible, I am mostly looking for a "doors not locked" or "garage armed" status, not logic, but that option sounds great
I was thinking whwn the house arms, lights will turn off and ventillation should reduce speed etc
A big stick

DST confuses people enough already

Is the Home Assistant organization based or originally from Netherlands?
Nabu Casa, Inc. - 15 Hubble Suite 200, Irvine, CA 92618
Considering that Paulus is in Brooklyn now, I imagine that's old
I've just always been curious seeing as the map element on their site is centered on Amsterdam
also I thought the initial example energy dashboard was a dutch provider?
Some of the core team are certainly from that part of the world
I have an impeccable Dutch accent
I make fun of my Dutch colleagues whenever possible
That's really cool, just keep learning how many tech companies/folks are out there
There are about 9m more than you currently have found
Then add 5m more for good measure
Paulus may be the only NC employee in the US
that cannot be right. I cannot for the life of me think of his name (black curly haired guy) that is sometimes on the streams is most certainly an american
Yeah, there are others: https://www.nabucasa.com/about/
It's grown quite a bit in the last couple of years
What a poor grammatical sentence
preferred installation method for the majority of all Home Assistant users.
remove "all" and it's okay
don't mind me, just waiting for HA to start up the Sun, pretty cold in here
good luck with that in arctic winter
the company Caterpillar is making VR controllable machinery so construction equipment can be controlled from anywhere in the world.. shits gonna be like that I, Robot movie where thousands of jobs are eliminated lol
I see some equipment being remotely controlled from the jobsite, but I would think that VR would sacrifice operational awareness
the whole construction site is like Minecraft
they showcased using it at the beginning of a construction doing the ground work. in that scenario having no people on the ground would maybe be a little safer
be curious to know if all you would need to get your cert and license to operate that machinery at that point would be a $15 VR game from steam
i am kind of surprised there hasn't be a push for VR train control. if anything I could maybe see that being almost better with more awareness through multiple cameras than an actual conductor
hell i watched a video the other day that talked about that train companies already have their own cell type thing inside every train specifically to monitor cell phone usage of the operators during work hours
Doubt that would be something. Fully automatic trains will be the push instead
has to be a step before fully automatic
Some trains are already fully automatic
We've already made the step
And most trains are just a driver following computer controlled signals and directions
maybe that's why they don't. too afraid someone would just walk away from the controls to go watch a marvel movie while a real life train barrels down the tracks lol
what trains are fully automatic?
Few of the Singapore MRT, some of the London underground
Probably a few more that I'm not aware of too
Some others too

So yes they do exist
commuter trains are diffrent
they don't have stops where cars need to be dropped off and picked up, don't have to deal (usually) with those side chutes.. whatever they call the gets off the track cause another train is coming from the other direction
the train lengths are nowhere near comparable
there is just a lot more involved
not saying it's not possible, just there is so much more involved with freight trains
You said commuter here
Yes freight is different. But the fact is that sort of automation is already in place on mining sites, apart from the disconnecting/ connecting carriages it's not too hard to see it happen
And the latter is easily solved by a couple of people working at the yard
I can see it happening
I said commuter there cause that is what you were referring to
I was referring to freight
Apologies I thought you meant commuter was different to metro
oh
And while they act as if the operator was in charge...

people would just randomly walk in and yell "do you guys have any coffee?"
alright time to fly home, just gotta find a resturant for dinner first since the local airport is basically a hole in the wall

BROO
Meanwhile my city
What is this? Johannesburg?
Don't know where that photo is from exactly but I'm in Buenos Aires
And the front of my house has iron bars like that too... and a few years ago burglars tried to break in anyway, opening the bars with a car jack
Wow, you spoke English with each other?
Yes, of course
All Norwegians are octalingual
Nice not having to stress with my transfer, I got to the airport early and got booked to an earlier flight
More time at Kastrup
while they probably should, I don't think the Norwegian dialects count as separate languages
Some of them should for sure
I also have a new place for the next weeks
That's the strangest hotel room I've seen
that is no hotel 
You need a bigger TV to block more of the view :). Then have a static picture of a mountain on it
That sounds awfully american
My brain is currently freezing up
how do I get my for loop to show what host returns what again ?

eh, I'll just pipe it to excel and give them line numbers 😄
Siemens wouldn't let me download MIBs without a service contract

one out of two plugs kill your switch
choose wisely
Oh no 😦
Install a long cat5 cable when you are there, so you can be "on-site" in the future 🤣
I found out today, we are expanding an alarm that hasn't been sold for 12 years, you program it over a virtual serial port to modem interface, will be fun
I am the only one at work that deals with them haha
This will probably go on until lightning gets them, we have about 20 and one of the municipalities people has a fetish for them
We, or another company needs to swap the main pcb in one because we can't remote it, so I had to go out and program by hand instead, 30 schedules for arming/ disarming, it is so fun!
the firewall rules for > 3 hops get exponential complex
Yuck
Even in military i seldom see more than two hops
Or.. two firewalls
Three hops essentially
finally I do something which is bigger in numbers than you do
did you just assume my experience?
Yes
ok it might be a bad idea
Wdym 3 hops firewall rules o.0
military stuff of course
Mhhm. A war between your left and right hand?
And the middle one
Finally landed, now just to get home
Pretty boring looking lounge. Hope the free food and drink is good at least
yea the package of croutons and tap water
Looks like somebody's house
That sounds like some really shitty lounge
I enjoy the free alcohol and food, or in some lounges freshly made to order food
did you not look at the picture? Rob was right, that was an airbnb lol
The lounge atx posted?
yea isn't that what you were commenting on?
and now they got fleas in the house
Copenhagen sas lounge, not great, not terrible, well worth it for the price, but when waiting for 7h at the airport
Price? Ew imagine paying for lounges
Well, i don't pay for it, but it was 249DKK
Still. Paying for a lounge regardless
ew
I'd gladly pay for lounge access with two kids waiting at the airport
Ill just take my free lounge access
Mine includes family in December and July I believe
I get one guest, and if a qantas lounge 2 kids free as well. Lifetime status is great
Roo airlines
Kids in lounges. Ewwwww!
Agreed 
Y'all kidfrees
Send your kids in the checked in baggage please
Aw , $h1t! Here we go again...
looks like a doorbell modernization
Nope , sprinkler with two zones, pump , outside power outlet (for pool pump or lawnmower) and software pressure switch .
I wish it made sense to get a pool where I am
Alaska?
Colorado
We had one growing up and we could only use it maybe 3 months a year
Couldn't open it until late May/early June and had to close it by mid September most years
It was just too cold outside that range
The rest of the year there was just this 15' circle of the yard we couldn't use.
Skating rink?
@forest edge don't know what that is but.....
Some Ghostbusters shenanigans going on there
No worries, same here. Even worst.

I sometimes use MediaMonkey to cast from PC to my google cast speakers but you you can't ask Google to play from that source so it's not a real replacement for something like Spotify
looks like full integration is limited to YouTube Music, Spotify and Apple Music if I can trust the Home app listing
You guys and your thermostats
Me like remote control
And data collection on me end... not big cloud
But I need quick thermostat stat

The market penetration of DHC systems varies strongly amongst the EU member states.

Good evening, I'd like to express my love towards big dogos
Hi, I was trying to do this mod, but I am stuck at installing ADB drivers. The win11 device manager recognises the NS Panel (vie USB) as "portable device'" MTP USB Device (px30_evb) and a mass storage device appears in file manager with same name, instead of"USB Device".
Probably this prevents the ADB to connect the device.
Can you please suggest, what can be wrong?
#diy-archived can probably help. Just shitposts here.
And raccoons, right? :/
slaughterhouse?
:/
i've seen racoons, rabbit pairs, coyotes, a number of cats and deer in my front yard this year. not unheard of although the deer is rather rare
If its rare should cook it more, medium rare at the least surely
I prefer my meat still bleeding
So jealous of your raccoon sightings 🤣
I actually don't like deer meat.. just dosen't taste good no matter how it's cooked
prob for the best, if you were here you'd already have rabies lol
you are probably right
rabies is scary. knew someone who had survived getting bitten by something with rabies twice with only a 2 year seperation
talk about bad luck
surviving rabies twice? yeah bad luck..
actually getting bitten twice
rabies is rather rare, in my lifetime i've only seen 2 or 3 animals that i "thought" had it and both times was inside a car
in the middle of the night
That's what you get for living in a shitty area or trying to fuck wildlife I guess @finite atlas
this is one of the reasons putting people on block is stupid.. making comments on a convo they cannot follow lol
thats what block is
Except he can follow it if he wants
Block just hides by default with the option to reveal a message
Have you enabled adb in the Sonoff app? 😄

Germans here, how do you play Scrabble or is it just not a game played in German
They probably play it very german
I don't get the question
We place blocks with letters. Is there anything weird about it?
But the length of german words
Ja?

Why are you so obsessed with raccoons might I ask
If I hadn't knew the animal, I'd have thought about a very dangerous, big and tanky animal
🤔 I like the weird research homework papers more

I must watch that again
It's so strange to have a full calendar again after 1.5 years of self studies
Currently have a very critical HP-UX environment that needs my attention yesterday, a full industrial ethernet network I need to document and replace and suddenly some finns want me to design their entire infrastructure, plus trying to shoo my promotion still
Not to mention designing a HPC environment for national computational services
Got my new alarm system installed today though, and it integrated in HA without any hickups

Finally came up with a decent mount for my watch's wireless charger
I got my desk set up nice. Wallmounted my monitors, mounted my headphone amp/dac under the desk, put a headphone mount clip on, got a wireless phone charger to go in one of the cable run holes and a outlet/USB charger to put in the other hole

I have been thinking about raccoons recently, surprising right?
I think they are very cute, the way they chew, and move. The little grabbies are just adorable. The lack of asking first, and just grabbing stuff. And then they are just really cool. Ever seen a cat steal a doormat? Ever seen a dog that can use a brush to sweep the floor? 🤣
And the hand rubbing is just next level heart melting
Someone on our work Slack said they'd seen a couple of raccoons in their yard and wanted to know if there was someone they could call. You up for it?
I really like a lot of other animals too, but raccoons are probably my fav atm
Omw
I'm sure they wanted to know what to feed them and how many doormats they need
Everything, and all the doormats would be a good start
I'll pass it on
Apart from grapes, if they feed them grapes they will end up having 2 raccoons for life
Sausages seem quite popular too
The problem is that fingers look like sausages
<stops typing>
LOL
was just gonna suggest alkaseltzer tablets
To be fair, if I had raccoons in my yard destroying stuff or eating my chicken eggs, I would probably not like them as much
Hahaha this is so evil 🤣
yea, i'd kill anyone i caught doing that
Giving alkaseltzer tablets to raccoons? I would kill them too
We have wild boar not too far away, the babies are just adorable, but I wouldn't be saying that if they destroyed my garden etc 🤣
They keep fairly much to themselves at the edge of the forest, not sure why they don't come here, we have 1 other property between us and the forest
threat of bacon
That might keep them away!
@tidal bronze John Oliver just did his second piece on how sketchy crypto is.. you might wanna trade your bitcoin in for pez candy refills while you still can lol
I feel like wire ferrules are just a scheme
been seeing more crap about people "recommending them" and of course they always use some fancy crimping tool while doing so
I use my same crimper on them as I use for everything else
two sided crimper or one those fancy 4-6 sided crimpers?
I always see them using those fancy ones that crimp all around and those cannot be used on most crimp style connectors
the jaws don't open wide enough
I have a set of those, a set with changeable dies, and a regular 2 sided... I always travel with the 2 sided and rarely use the others
wouldn't think a two sided crimp on a ferrule would be secure enough
The one have has 3 different crimp areas for non insulated insulated and "other" I just use that on the ferrules
Okay
Opposums are also cool
especially the aussie ones
I like the feature where they get knocked out if they experience too much stress
That's hardly one bite
It's only a picoByte
we have that too
I too, act like I'm dead until the dishes go away
about to watch evil dead. been far too long since I watched bruce campbell
@calm wind Love the video with your analog phone ❤️. What type and model is that phone?
It's a Heemaf type 1955, which was used by the Dutch telephony company PTT in that time
Thank you!! It's a cool phone.

Hi. Someone know something about OwnTracker ? I would like connect with Home Assistant and i need to know that can i replay route from for example two days ago ?
You mean Owntracks ?
yes
tbf, it is a overly complicated product, I ditched it after a while, fine if you have a fleet of cars or something similar, but for home use, nah
but all that would be Owntracks related, not HA related
Owntracks has its own DB and interface
#integrations-archived can help with the OwnTracks integration
You can't replay historical data though
wants to supervise drivers, do you think there is no point in doing it through a home assistant?
Depends, is that all you want to do?
Because HA isn't really a tool for that
You probably want something designed for that, like Traccar
I want to read from the history of which day how many routes he covered
HA could do that, but only if you give it the location in real time
not good
Hence why I said to use a tool designed for what you want
mayby you known any aplication which will can show me history of localization
you mean about Traccat?
Traccar, yes
to many to paid
Traccar is free
I'm sure however there are forums for this kind of thing that can provide you with more guidance
great thanks !
ughhh
Stupid Discord added markdown links, new tool for scammers to abuse... https://www.theregister.com/2023/04/26/discord_rolls_out_new_features_easier_phishing

Thankfully Discord defaults to asking you about every link you click

Annoyingly there's no official way of untrusting domains
That's actually sus af
And a stupid decide
I love the fact that AI making stuff up is called hallusinations

not sure how many people will use that tho
The markdown thing is also why people posting yaml without code tags looks even worse now

Anyone have any suggestions on "Whole House" power monitoring systems? Looking for something thats as close to plug and play as possible because I am in a rental atm...
Looking to at least see the current draw on the whole house..
Zigbee or wifi
In Norway i would just say han meter, we replaced all meters in the country with smart ones, and consumer is required by law to be able to read it locally
But, depends what meter you have and where
something like this? https://sense.com/ or more DIY?
Kind of scary seeing the uptick in the amount of people who have pretty similar outlook on humanity's future as me lately lol
I figure this is the best place to ask, but say I got my hands on an old HP server. What could I do with that? (big picture, not just HA wise)
Well, without context I'd say a nice crawdad trap?
Yes that looks promising!
😂 well i mean, its got 24 gb ddr3 ram, not sure on the cpus, havent gotten in there, and 4 146 gb hard drives. plugged it in and it does seem to work
Now we're getting somewhere
Well sounds like a VM host to me
HA in a VM and whatever else you wanna run
Dl380?
yes, dl380 g7
I have a G5 somewhere in this house
Or is it a G6.... can't remember
Either way its esxi
though... i am slightly worried about power consumption. Im running my pc, 5 3d printers, and a mini fridge in my room already and no where else to really put it
Hence why mine is not plugged in
Although I do have the capacity I do not have the wish to pay for it to run
as a broke college student, i understand that too well
There's 2 network switches, a router, DVR, mini fridge, my PC and all my soldering/rework stations
As the father of a near college student....
Oh and my 2 NAS's and my 2 rpi's also in my rack
though those are fairly low in power consumption, but considering all that together, that a good chunk of power
I have way too much shit
I'm throwing stuff out like everyday and still the boxes are full
I have a box full of like 20 IP phones
Why? Cuz I can really
i just recently moved, so luckily i was smart enough to clean out a ton of stuff before moving
I'm redoing my PBX so I'm keeping them just in case
Yeah I'm doing like 8 years worth of spring cleaning
And sorting
i most definitely wish you luck with that
So.basically the entire house is in pieces rn
Oh I don't need luck my friend
But thank you
just time and patience really lol
I just do a little everyday
But I do need to relocate like 6 network drops as well so maybe when I get that I'll tidy up rack the same time
I mean I do this shit for a living so it's really just wanting to do it
🤣😂
that honestly pretty cool you do that for a living
I don't think so, it's the only thing I'm really good at but thanks
Has anyone else had trouble connecting their FP2 to their wifi? Once again I'm having issues with a device only being able to connect to 2.4ghz
Even though it seems like most advice says you shouldn't use separate 2.4 and 5ghz networks
I still end up running into this issue often
you may wanna look up eyedro. it's not as polished as sense but it's also 1/3rd the cost. both can be implemented into HA

finally getting my shit together and virtualizing home assistant
You mean dockerizing
haha, I was actually thinking just a VM
I do like HAOS. its limited, but I have absolutely no need to thinker on HA
Yuck
You can with rsnapshot every 15 minutes
Made a wireless media controller for my PC. Going to mount it under my desk. Still need properly labeled keycaps though.
will the esphome gui work on a non haos version?
Yes
Anything haos does you can do
It is nothing special about it, except it being shit

That looks like a portable fidget spinner for superADHD
Okay I will try the docker version then, if that makes you happy
everything to make you happy
Just a few keys and an LCD, got an esp32 in there powering it
Windows's API for getting playing media sucks. It keeps glitching something out if I call it more than like once every 10 seconds and sends explorer.exe into a crash loop even after I quit calling it.
Have to log out then back in to get it to cooperate
I used Cherry MX style switches in it, they were really easy to work with. Just needed at 14mm x 14mm hole in a 1.5mm thick layer with 5mm between each hole
What is the minimum cpu generation you guys would do on a home server? Go straight on 12/13th gen, or run say a 9th gen?
Depends on what you're doing/budget, but generally newer is better for power efficiency.
A 10 year old sever will run a few vms and share some disk just fine but it'll take 200w while doing so
If not more
Also more efficient servers last longer on UPSes
minimum is skylake
Anything less than v2 intel xeons are e waste these days
A 11 year old server will run 400+ VMs fine
If properly specced
I run 80+ on my low specced 2015 system
Ahhh, I thought you were just kidding, but as a last chance I was Googling the ADB enable in sonoff app and realised, that it is real! Many thanks! But wonders me why nobody mentions it (even Blackadder's post not...)?
I Think they added that with a later version
At most 1 chrome tab, though
_laughs in 839 tabs on my laptop _
Yea, if they're all single-purpose or light.
You'd probably be pushing the RAM on a box that old too
Oh yea, 10 years ago was 2013, not 2009. =/
Storage is usually the bottleneck, unless all flash external das / nas
I installed my first 1TB system in 2008
Yea but those weren't the norm back then
3TB in 2010
Weren't uncommon, 512-768 has been the norm since the early 10s
Haven't seen a <768GB system since probably 2016/17
I think we still have a couple really old boxes kicking around with only like 300GB at work but all of our new purchases are at least 1.5TB
@clear ferry has laptops with more than 1.5TB RAM /s
I wish
@last cedarPP||P|| working like a charm. no idea why but spectrum has been randomly taking a dump today so it's been working my failover alot lol
wish the 4g connection through it was faster tho
That is quite amazing, thr latest updates (23.1.x) have had so many bugs and hotfixes, it has been quite a mess (compared to previous releases)! @forest edge
yea I had saw they were doing a lot on the cellular stuff. Once I had got it working, it was working so not sure what all updates had fixed/changed anything with my particular setup
I had hoped the changes would have made the info data accessable by the card put into opensense but that part still dosen't seem to work

That's a rather compromising position you caught the squirrel in....

Now I'm wondering if a furry has ever hurt themselves pretending they were a flying squirrel
The answer is always yes
There's individual categories for types of animals but I grouped them all together under a single 'animal' label so I didn't have 20 different categories in Frigate.
Hey All,
is there a way to search all the Geo-IP registries/providers at once?
I'm having an issue with my ISP and some services are reporting that i'm overseas
or is there a way to find out what Geo-IP registry/provider a certain service (Amazon Prime Video) is using?
my understanding is you can use like iplocation.net which pulls from a bunch of a certian type of geo location service databases but there is no way to pull from everything that uses geolocation
so that's what nerds dream about
@clear ferry you who use opnsense. what did you put in domain? own tls? It say you should not put local there, and I tried with my own domain, but full of dns errors encured, so switched to lan. Also in the dns tab (the same page as domain settings), should I put something there, the local dns, or an external dns? My dns queries goes into unbound -> DNS over TLS
haha, I can put it to dark theme just for you
I decided to fully reinstall home assistant with all automations etc. too much crap and old entities from old
should be an auto-cleanup in HA
now its on docker at least
don't let your dreams be dreams. Write the cleanup function
haha, yeah and be responsible for a bug that delete all the entities @glacial knot ? I think no!
@clear ferry so you use local. hmm and it get no mdns conflict? I just ask since it say in the info text on the domain never use local
who doesn't have at least a daily backup of their config? o.0
a lot probably
