New ac unit 8 at the food pantry thanks to ha data

[swift dirge]

Always nice having data 🙂

[lofty orchid]

Yea, it's like here are the facts, what are you gonna do about it?

[steel crag]

loves all the data

[lofty orchid]

I got a bunch of sensors. I started tracking data from the thermocouple internal temp sensor that lives on top of the equipment when we were trying to figure out the ac situation. At the last board meeting they approved $1000 for me to do ha for all 3 units. I got two done for $600, $400 was the thermostats. I will probably come in $100 under budget and I get to explain to them why we have a new ac unit at the meeting next week. We have had the refrigeration alarms for 5 years I just reprogrammed them to upload to ha

So for like $1500 a small food pantry can be a smart food pantry. Only thing is finding people willing to fill that role

Volunteering can happen on so many levels….food pantries are often overwhelmed because they are a go-to. Do a little googling and I bet you find someone or something in your area that needs your experience/time/talent

It’s also a great way to expand your friend group outside of your day-to-day.

At least that is better than my headcanon that the strongest had killed the other 4 for more time and oxygen

[static schooner]

I wonder if it was accompanied by an air leak

otherwise, I would think that the interior pressure + capsule design would have prevented the implosion

[orchid rose]

The design was apparently very experimental and not up to regulations. Since regulations limit innovation according to the CEO

[swift dirge]

I suspect it wasn't pressurized to the outside pressure.

Because that's significantly more painful to surface with

and you've got to go on weird air mixes

[static schooner]

in the news story, they justified all the off-the-shelf consumer stuff by saying that they'd spent that time and energy and money building a strong pressure vessel

[subtle pasture]

What's really wild is the shark tag tracking data from the last 4 days

Two Great Whites made a bee-line from the New York coastline to the dive site, and arrived at 11:00 AM on the 21st. It would have taken 3 or 4 days for those sharks to make that journey, which means they heard the implosion very shortly after contact with the sub was lost.

Those same two sharks have never gone near the wreckage of the Titanic previously, probably because it's too deep for them to hunt there. The Titanic is about 3800 meters down, but Great Whites usually don't go down deeper than 1200 meters.

[steel crag]

im not at liberty to discuss my good projects

let's just say I've worked places that would have known when it imploded too

a plug on a lamp says 100 w, while my house's meter says 41 w. who's wrong: plug, meter, or both?

[solar zealot]

check the bulb rating

its commonly printed on

[daring jolt]

its a weird type of bulb

anyway the thing is the house meter is the sum of the appliances, so a single appliance shouldn't be more, which is the problem

[solar zealot]

41w for a whole house seems a bit low tho

but that would be more reasonable for a lamp

[daring jolt]

@solar zealot

[solar zealot]

if thats what they bill it must be correct

[daring jolt]

fyi the first picture isnt the meter, its a device that connects to the meter wirelessly

the kw number is from the meter

the price is manually inputted

[solar zealot]

as long as its properly configured to read on all phases

you may also find the rating on the bulb or its socket, but that requires taking it appart

or you have a third meter around to check either

Hey people!

I found a Samsung AC that says its "nominal consumption" is 1200W, does that mean on average it will use that, or at most?

I've seen power meter tests for similar ACs that use even 200W at times, so I'm not sure what to expect

[clear ferry]

https://tenor.com/view/8ball-bart-simpson-shaking-shake-magic-ball-gif-17725278

[clever mortar]

Nominal Power is your average power consumed

[swift dirge]

It's along the lines of "under normal conditions, when cooling/heating, the AC will use this much power."

(average is a word with a few meanings. so clarity is important.)

[dusky plank]

I'd say it will use 24230948 watts

[prisma briar]

If you ain't got time for it then don't volunteer for the job, lol.

Not even an apology or anything, either, he just slunk away.

[nocturne sierra]

ACs will have a massive spike in consumption when they first start cooling, starting up the compressor and all, so the nominal power rating is going to be influenced by that, even if while it's in the main cooling cycle it's only consuming a couple hundred watts.

[hollow glacier]

yeah disappointing isnt it

@edgy sun Please use imgur or other image sharing web sites, and share the link here.

Image posting is blocked in most channels to discourage people from sharing text as images. Sharing text as images assumes that everybody sees the world as you do, which isn't the case. Some people are colour blind, or have visual impairment that means they can't make sense of an image of text.

Yeah, my homelab has been 24c/192g since 2013, but now my prod system is 24c/128 but my lab is 24c/384 and my backup system is 4c/12

Think the last time I had a dual core box was in 2009

[edgy sun]

Well I don't have a dual core box. Just had a dual core container.

No reason to give it more resources than it needs. But apparently it needed more.

[clear ferry]

I've yet to see the appeal of lxc, it is just a container pretending to be a vm

[edgy sun]

How is it pretending to be a VM?

[clear ferry]

By defaulting to be limited in resources

For one

[edgy sun]

I guess.

I like it better than docker. Feels lighter weight and easier.

[clear ferry]

And doesn't each lxc container have its own kernel?

[edgy sun]

No

Anyway. I like proxmox (or am just familiar with it because it's the first thing I used)

Don't have too much going on

I was sure, but they appear to just use cgroups I guesss

Honest question but is the Mosquitto project kind of dead?

Really thinking of migrating to another MQTT server by now... tho not sure what yet.

Well, update went through and it's back up again. I waited for 35mins or so and couldn't see any forward progress (but could ssh into it, and it said it was running 2.7), so I did a sudo reboot from ssh and it came up okay

I think I had to do the same with the last update. It didn't come up on its own, but did after a manual restart

anybody using ExpressVPN needs to do this: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/180964/solved-expressvpn-connection-error-data-channel-cipher-negotiation-failed-no-shared-cipher/15

Other than that, can't find anything broken, and looks about the same. One day they should consider revamping the absolute monstrosity of their menu system

I'm still using the separate Wireguard package and it's working fine in 2.7.0, but it sounds like I don't need it?

hmm, looks like you still need the package:

To use WireGuard, upgrade to the latest version of pfSense Plus or pfSense CE software then install the WireGuard package from the Package Manager.

[prisma briar]

I finally switched from OpenVPN to WireGuard last week and did need the package on pfSense.

I think it's now using the WireGuard support in the new FreeBSD kernel rather than the kernel module, but the package handles the configuration

I would strongly recommend you download warp if you don't use it already. I downloaded it just now, and the difference between regular terminal or iterm is impressive. You can totally change the appearance, it auto fills commands quite well (it even picked up ips I had sshed into using my old terminal), it has an ai that you can ask questions to (or have it tell you how to fix errors), and you can even create a "team" to share stuff with. https://www.warp.dev/

Also, zed seems to be a really fast vscode alternative. It has a bit more customization it seems, and is faster from the little bit I've tested. https://zed.dev/download

I've been there, I'd like to raise you "bugs in a Bahamian mangrove swamp for $400 Alex"

I'd prefer to feed a colony of mosquitos that to be bitten by sand flies

Anybody using solar power att 64deg latitude?

[woven wing]

It is better to stay indoors here in sweden during the summer 😁

[tall rampart]

I'm shopping for cameras to use with Frigate and I'm noticing a lot of them have this double connector cable so that the PoE is optional. In my case, an RJ45 connector is sticking out of my wall and I don't need this cable bulk. How do I get rid of it neatly?

[distant jewel]

longitude?

[woven wing]

21

[distant jewel]

point it south

[woven wing]

Obviously 😛

But its more a matter wheter there is enough hours of sun up here

[glacial knot]

How many sun hours do you have in summer?

[distant jewel]

increase the number of solar panels

or use a tracker

they do use solar panels in sweden

[last cedar]

Summer isn't the problem, you are sometimes lucky to see the sun at all in January 🤣

[last cedar]

Mmm!

[last cedar]

Drill a large enough hole behind the camera mount to hide it, would be 1 option (maybe not the best), perhaps use a junction box (many cameras have mounts that you mount the camera to, and hide it there)

[last cedar]

Sand flies sound awful, not gonna lie

[glacial knot]

You mean unlucky?

[woven wing]

Meet a deerfly (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipoptena_cervi) yet? These things are naaasty 😛

[woven wing]

Im not sure, but about 21h between sunrise and sunset today.

[umbral cliff]

preorder

[glacial knot]

Why is your first sim roaming?

[umbral cliff]

It's my UK Sim
I have free roaming in aus, good backup

And I get all my texts for there if I need it

[midnight adder]

Ah yes, another AU/UK dual sim user 😆

[glacial knot]

I just have two German sims 🤷

[dusky plank]

Coverage is a shitshow in germany

Get some mountains

[iron granite]

Just because I had to lay down in front of a certain window in my flat in a major german city to be able to call someone, doesn't mean our coverage is a shitshow 🤣

[umbral cliff]

I don't have free roaming on my Australian Sim
May as well keep free roaming whilst I need a UK Sim card

[glacial knot]

Internet is a shitshow in germany

[glacial knot]

Ah yes, the O2 experience

[iron granite]

Nah... Vodafone. I'm quite satisfied by O2 here.

[swift dirge]

wifi calling is so handy. if you can trust it.

[umbral cliff]

What do you mean by if you can trust it

But yeah its very convenient

[swift dirge]

There was that unfortunate issue with the samsung phones a few months ago.

[umbral cliff]

Which issue was that?

[swift dirge]

I think it's sorted now

https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2023/03/multiple-internet-to-baseband-remote-rce.html

affected more than just samsung, but that was the main set.

[umbral cliff]

Ah that

Yeah think its sorted

yandex is the only useful now

its all google lens now

[glacial knot]

Wdym? Tries to be smart too much?

[dusky plank]

used to get something like this

now its just

[glacial knot]

Skill issue

Maybe don't click "find image source" but "search by image"

[dusky plank]

you literally see that I'm on the "findy by image source" tab

[glacial knot]

No, I don't

[dusky plank]

Bildquelle suchen

[glacial knot]

Yes. That's not search by image

That's find image source

[dusky plank]

where is search by image then my lord?

[glacial knot]

I don't see your screen
But it was smack in the middle of https://images.google.com for me

[dusky plank]

i know exactly what you mean

but that view doesn't exist anymore mi amigo

[glacial knot]

Oh, that first screen it goes to works well for me

Idgaf about the layout change 🤷

Fund better images to search for :p

[dusky plank]

do you get what i mean now? rip reverse image search

[glacial knot]

I don't get it, no

New layout, whoo

Like, I get what you mean
But at least for my quick test it was equally usable

[dusky plank]

its as useful as chatgpt for automations.yaml

[umbral cliff]

So it'll give you a carrot when you ask for an apple

And then gaslight you into believing it's an apple

And that you really wanted an apple anyway

[dusky plank]

yes. macintosh!

[umbral cliff]

Where's the Linux distro carrot

Or banana

I vote we rename HAOS to Banana

The home automation distro

Debian can become carrot

Ubuntu can be chocolate because it looks nice but is unhealthy long term

[glacial knot]

I was surprised to see the chart how many people are running os:o

[dusky plank]

Ha enters mainstream

I recently convinced three people to change to homeassistant after i lied to them and told them it was made by siemens. Way less talk work just say some major brand and they follow 🐑

[glacial knot]

All those blues and yellows

Just tell them I contributed code to it

[umbral cliff]

That would make me run away

[iron granite]

Siemens means "Sicher ist eines, man erhält nur Scheiß" - "On thing for sure, you just get shit" 🤣

[glacial knot]

Run

Oh, mjg is in the contributer list

[finite atlas]

its the first time ever, i hear someone describe it like that

[glacial knot]

What would you expect it be called?

its a meme, calm down

[prisma briar]

"Haha genocide a population" your memes suck

[finite atlas]

Thats your fair subjective view and i accept it.

[prisma briar]

There's something wrong with you if you think randomly exclaiming "The French should burn" is funny.

[clear ferry]

I am almost everybody

And I do hate the French

[young sigil]

For very small values of everybody.

looks like you have some load at all times, so at least one core is on turbo/max freq, but it changes core multiple times every $time-unit, because scheduler things

[prisma briar]

"Haha who cares if we shit on whole countries, it's just Discord" what

You do realize that there's likely French people here reading his call to burn them, right?

"It's just the internet, I can be an asshole if it's funny" is not really a good ethos, for reasons you really shouldn't need explained.

[green inlet]

How many French people commented as opposed to those who didn’t and just brushed it off as a joke, which was probably how it was intended. People in here bang the US on the daily.

And I am not going to start a thing here so….that was my final comment.

[prisma briar]

The number of people who speak up is irrelevant. None of the US bashing that goes on here is anywhere close to "We should burn them".

It's crazy that you're trying to defend an arbitrary call for genocide because you find it funny. Something is wrong with you.

Pure coincidence, cats don't work together on anything. God help us all if they learn to

[clear ferry]

Cats would never do anything as foolish as help someone else

Even if that is another cat

[prisma briar]

At what point do you just lock the cats out of the bedroom?

[prisma briar]

They'd try to harness the earth's rotational energy, I suspect.

[static schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/hitchhikers-guide-to-the-galaxy-dont-panic-dolphins-fish-so-long-gif-3554498

i have one cat that i know for a fact doesnt need me. he just sticks around cuz he likes me

if i dont get him inside overnight he leaves me half a rat or whatever is on the menu that night

very thoughtful

[balmy bough]

lol

[hollow glacier]

i have a really rude neighbor behind me that i donate the leftovers to via a huk over the fence

feels appropriate

https://giphy.com/gifs/moodman-f6K3g0BinRIulj4zXb

[balmy bough]

so that's who has been chucking cat dung into my yard 😉

[hollow glacier]

i meant half a rat

[balmy bough]

oh, LOL

[hollow glacier]

the good half of course

[clear ferry]

Which is the good part step ratty?

🫦

[hollow glacier]

well he enjoys the tail and back end

he saves me the face and lungs etc

[hollow glacier]

i tried to make him an indoor cat only but we found him getting fed scraps behind a dumpster at a restaurant

and inside he decided to pee everywhere til you let him out.. so he just couldnt be contained inside

way of the road bubs

i do wish he stuck to only rats or mice tho.. hunting baby bunnies is not cool

[balmy bough]

where i live, outdoor cats either get hit by a car, or abducted by people that think it is stray

[hollow glacier]

he lives in the garage and gets let out when it's not too hot or cold and then in overnight

but every once in a while i cant get him in before bed and i wake up to a gift

[clear ferry]

I think I have only seen one indoor cat in my life

[hollow glacier]

cat

[balmy bough]

i have two indoor cats

only found pic of one though...

[hollow glacier]

Damn
