i have an esxi server
hushed basalt
Do you have a vm already running an os that you can use
I'd put it on docker on a vm if I was you
midnight adder
i'm not a fan of docker
hushed basalt
Why's that?
midnight adder
probably gonna throw it on a generic ubuntu server
hushed basalt
I mean it will work but it's an expensive way to do it
midnight adder
docker's port management is dumb
i shouldn't have to re-add a container just to open up a port
hushed basalt
Re-add?
I just docker-compose up and it manages all of that
Although my ports are handled more by my reverse proxy. The container ports always stay unexposed and the reverse proxy forwards the ports
So I can 'open' a port just by changing my reverse proxy config
But i would say 99% of the time it's just the one default service port opened. It would be extremely rare that I've added another port forwarding to a container after creation
You should give docker another go. Use docker-compose

hi all - I've written up what I hope is a good technical post to ask for help diagnosing a mosquitto MQTT problem (possibly to do with log file permission) whilst running Homeassistant in venv. I'm also a noob at Discord etiquette (sorry) in terms of where to post an issue like this to ask for help - because I don't know if it is a user permissions thing resulting from having installed in venv, or if it is a mosquitto issue or something else (probably PEBKAC) please can someone guide me?
clever mortar
@light pawn The channel topics give you hints as to where to post, but for something like this... I'd start in #330944238910963714

you just clamp them over the cables

Okay cool, I was thinking that might be how it works but that doesn't seem so easy to me
in the breaker box I don't see any wires, but obviously there would be some behind it in the wall cavity

It's my bed-side button so I'll probably just have turn off function on it

I think if you call it on the group, it'll turn them all off if any member is on (by default - you can reverse that)

red as it uses less power.

What are the screen devices that are available these days? Just the google hub and echo 5? Are there others. Preferences?
Donโt even know what they are called to do a generic google search for comparisons?

People like Hibernia and their ilk prefer if they get the resale value of the copper, expecially if it more than pays for the fibre cable ๐
hearty depot
hushed basalt
Fibre is so cheap
Assuming the stuff on fs.com is decent enough
Especially for SMB
Only downside with fibre is you can't run unterminated cables without a fusion splicer handy
Barrier for entry for fibre termination is just slightly higher compared to copper
clear ferry
But the connector is so much smaller, much easier to fit through a tight hole, or blow it through a tube
hushed basalt
That is true
What connectors are standard now. For SFP+
Also is everything just single mode now
Being able to run alongside power is also a plus. As well as through noisy EMI environments

LC has been the standard for the last 10+ years for end equipment

I'm hoping I can use the inbuilt codes as they already work.
I don't want to have to hand craft air con codes
ocean mirage
Yeah I just set up the app with my old panasonic split system
hushed basalt
15 degree settings * four fan modes * four operational modes = 240 codes
ocean mirage
Nothing in HA yet, need to actually get my hands dirty, I've had it installed for a long time but never used it cause I had no hardware
oh yeah lol
All I had to do was select Panasonic as the brand and the codes worked, its from like 2006 too
so thats good
hopefully works the same for you
hushed basalt
Yeah worked well for me
But I believe the homeassistant integration is very manual
I think all those codes are stored in the app not the device
No app, no codes

ahh okay
I think there is some sort of third party plugin that can do stuff with it too but I literally how no experience in adding anything to HA
so I'm not sure how that stuff works

So I recently decided to automate my sleeping. So the software I am using for this is Sleep as droid, Tasker and a HomeAssistant plugin for Tasker. Most of it pivots on sleep as droid with its sleep income feature.
So 30 minutes before the time I should be sleeping it sends out a notification, this triggers a automation in takser that sets the mainlight in my room to 50% warm white and turns the light by my bed on. after 30 minutes is up it turns off all my lights.
In the morning when sleep as droid goes off, it turns my light on to cool white. Very simple automations, but it seems to be ennought to trick my body into sleeping

Sample set is small, but seemingly they have a much larger dump.

Which may mean it's not real, but carefully cross-checked data from other sources

Very possible, but the group who released it have a track record for getting into fun stuff.

Meh, this is why I have 2FA anyway ๐

Discord admins can enforce 2FA on users?

what the experts thinking - sufficient to fill the drive this way to sell it afterwards?

yes @ocean mirage
ocean mirage
huh

@hearty depot Or just /dev/zero - what you fill it with doesn't really matter
Being able to recover after any over-write is already into specialist territory
The days of multiple random over-writes being required are long past, despite policies and guides that say otherwise

@ocean mirage seems they removed that and replaced it with "registrerd phone numer"... stupid...
hearty depot
mostly 380p porn on it anyway ๐
ocean mirage
that seems pointless doesn't it then?
2FA has a purpose
registered phone number has....?
light trout
digits

true
strange vapor
Providers already getting into trouble for requresting phone numbers when not required.

@dark sparrow the truth is 'code' isn't always the best choice
Tables and charts are incredibly powerful
Even for high level business logic for mega corporations
dark sparrow
jokes on you, i cant code at all
but i am more than aware than tables and charts are incredibly powerful
hushed basalt
Programmers tend to think code is the answer to everything
So the whole business becomes dependant on them
And I say this as a programmer
Even the CIA has spreadsheet driven logic
dark sparrow
well flow based stuff is more understandable as its close to how brains work: Action -> Does this action need something else? -> Do action.
And thats why im now in love with node-red
alltho im a bit stuck on conditions

Wonder wtf I did this time, both tuya devices I flashed yesterday show the same data in home assistant
hushed basalt
Are they mqtt?
clear ferry
Yes
hushed basalt
Are they pushing to the broker or reading a topic

Appears like one of them is dead since I flashed it for unknown reasons, and now the remaining one accepts commands for both
