I am still dreading flying to Japan, 18 ish hours usually
@tidal bronze if there is only 35 people onboard I hop y everyone got moved up to business

That won't happen. Food is not accounted for.
I think they got bumped up to premium eco
Really makes no sense shit is totally empty, 3 row eco is better than business π

In surprised the flight is still happening. Would've thought the cost of wages and fuel etc would outweigh the fares paid
Suppose they can't just cancel due to no interest though
We had a suspected case here in my city 2 days ago.
Went to the supermarket yesterday to get some things, place was picked clean
Not totally, but very close
Also, "Meme" π
SIX CASES intensifies
well it's new cases and with the fairly high R0 it might be significant. Without really knowing the situation ofc
I'd prefer zombies over dead bodies tbh
Only people dying are the same people who die from the flu anyway 
900 people die from the flu every year in Norway, but nobody has mentioned that while they are reporting on Corona cases, and nobody has died from Corona yet here 
That's comparing apples and oranges though
@tidal bronze you the only passenger on the flight? lol
check it.

Presence detectors/Sensors are essential for todayβs home automation systems In earlier videos we looked at PIR and radar sensors, and we were even able to use Wi-Fi on our smartphones to sense our presence. All have advantages and disadvantages.
Today, we create the ultimate...
I'm safe then

uh oh quad never responded, he must have landed in the hot zone lol
THIS ENTIRE MEETING COULD HAVE BEEN AN EMAIL - https://i.redd.it/lqe8zj9nmbk21.png
Most meetings could be an email.
Thankfully I mostly only join meetings I'm interested in 
Coronavirus death toll rises in the USA. It went up from 9 yesterday to 11 today. π’
can somebody help me with the setup of deconz in node red? I just cant seem to get it working and nobody is responding in the channel
@last plaza still only old or frail people?
They are the only ones that die from any report i see that actually mentions demographics, most reports just avoid mentioning it was a 97 year old woman with a lung infection
Yeah, both new deaths were elderly people it seems
I like how hard divided people are about it. There's the " meh, it's only like the flu" than there's the "oh shit new strand, no vaccine and no idea long term effects!" lol
I heard Amazon was out of hand sanitizer
I dunno but the mask crisis thing is retarded. people need to stop thinking wearing a surgeons mask is gonna save them from getting it
People be idjits
oh no norway has been infected! 56 cases!
that john hopkins map looks as if they are shipping at least one infected person to every country just to get a dot on the map lol
5
Less than three
4
1 and 2 contradict, 3 isn't possible, 4 by extension isn't possible, leaving 5 and 6. If 5 is correct, 6 can't be correct. 6 can't be correct because that would make 5 correct, which makes 6 incorrect (hopefully that makes sense)
- Put your mouth around the entire spout on the water fountain like in Pawnee, IN
Hey all I'm littlegeek I have been using HA on a VM for a few months now and I'm loving it. I don't know why i havent started using this sooner
hello littlegeek and you'll want #integrations-archived
Thanks! @forest edge
@forest edge no lol. Got some company.
@tidal bronze ever watched The Langoliers?
When you have worked so much overtime, the benefits of overtime are no longer positive, and you are working overtime
and now you know how the majority of salary workers feel
Yea....unfortunately, been there too
Positive side: I have my vpn and I am cleaning up some stuff around the network π
Haven't kicked me from it yet
Why would I kick you, havenβt gotten all I need yet.
I used to have 700h overtime per year
heh
Now I do closer to 200
I am required to do 550 hours. I am prob more in the 600 range.
Required
Yeah wtf
π
I do it because I enjoy it
After 30 years of doing what I am doing. .....meh
I'm closing on 15 in current job, and I still love it 
Got any openings? I need a high paying, big title, do nothing position
@last plaza still only old or frail people?
@clear ferry I guess so. Otherwise it would be all over the news! Hope quad is doing ok.
Did @tidal bronze get on the flight yet?
@green inlet do nothing? No Bueno 
What a crazy day!!!
@last plaza he's chatting up some business executive on the plane 
I could also be highly under qualified if you need me to be π€£
Yep. Thatβs quad for sure!
I wonder if quad is accepting applications. I could be his east coast rep.
I don't know about you guys but I'm definitely working from home until this coronavirus thing blows over
I'll be working from home after that too
so I guess it's not worth mentioning
It'll be out for a while.
yeah, I work from home all the time though
Spanish flu took 2 years and that wasn't mutating as fast or as contagious as this
wonder when/if travel is going to get locked down
might need to buy some good ol' travel insurance
Most travel insurance doesn't cover pandemics

@last plaza yep, 7 hours in 10 more hours to go. π
When you decide to update python and need to make a new venv to update it there, and you have to wait for home assistant to install of the libaries needed for intergrations
LOL
Also i finnally found the issue with deconz
the fact that you use dconz? lol.
Venv π€’
I know, but im used to it from when i started home assistant
quick question regarding zigbee and deconz, are the devices paired to the software or to the hardware(the conbee). as most of you are here now
Hardware
zigbee π€’
Gtfo
ah ok, so moving to ZHA might just be spinning down deconz and setting up the intergration
probably
Im thinking about it as im just having issues communicating between home assistant and deconz
What's wrong with zigbee
Nothing, @forest edge is just filling in for @clear ferry
Better than having 60 esp boards burning away
Although I do wish there was a way to have multiple zigbee gateways the same way you can have multiple access points
My cc2531 is a massive single point of failure
zigbee seems too cheap to be taken seriously lol
checks if his blind is supported by ZHA
zigbee seems too cheap to be taken seriously lol
Ah yes, because everyone has money to burn
it's broken license makes it hard to be taken seriously... for now... i'm sure google is going to shape that up soon
never know
will always be half assed just as it's always been
loool
it's broken license makes it hard to be taken seriously... for now... i'm sure google is going to shape that up soon
Thats a good and well reasoned reason
thats how they like it
p@ di784oek vka3m
Who needs a random password generator when you have a toddler and a smart phone
they need to release that wifi mesh thing they been working on
then we'll have something that's cheap(er) and stable lol
never partically had my zigbee mesh be unstable
i read about it all the time lol
my only issue has been because of a weird brown out caused by poor planning by some mcdonalds contractors drilling into a power cable
sounds like you lucked out cause there was one person in here who said a power surge broke like 60 something zigbee bulbs he had lol
oh, regional diffrences
I mean a surge will blow most things connected to mains
its not zigbees fault
My mesh seems to be OK
So.. My roommate.. Locked his car keys in the trunk of his car. However, left the car unlocked.
I asked him, "So... What about the trunk release button?"
lmao
Florida Man π€¦ββοΈ π€£
this is why I have a spare key in my wallet
He has a spare key. At his father's.
ha, hahahaha
No you don't. I'm in Florida. You do not speak for me. π
Seriously though, after all the stories I could give you about him, you'd be calling him a "Florida Man" as well. π
most likely
hehe
He's literally a well-meaning menace, for a roommate.
Don't let him trick you into letting him do dishes! You'll be left with still-dirty dishes, dripping in your cabinets.
(yet, claims to have washed them. Three times! And dried them)
sounds like he needs to buy a dishwasher
@hushed basalt and @rain swift

Oof another 5 hours to go. π
Just quicksave and come back later, when you have better time
When you get off the plane remember to take a deep breath and soak in the city
do the Die Hard trick?
Of course man thanks for reminding.
as @tidal bronze gets closer and looks out the window he see's this. https://hollyhouseproductions.files.wordpress.com/2019/01/world-war-z.gif
Going to run to the smoking lounge before anything.
mmm fellow nicotine addict
12 hours was easy this last few, sucks.
I should break the law and send you both Swedish lip tobacco
Great for those long waits between cigarettes
But can you vape indoors? 
yup
Really, that isn't legal here
For some reason that sounds 2 levels too raunchy for nicotine @clear ferry
vaping is definitely not worse than smoking cigarettes
well, i can at home, and i work from home
@tidal bronze you get it in all flavours too, anything from nothing to full on Christmas spice rack
I'd gladly anonymously send you a few different ones along with brown cheese and arctic candy

it's worse cause you breathe in far greater quantities of nicotine plus the chemicals they use
I know 2 people who died from it :\
Aren't the only real vaping deaths from people who vaped cannabis? 
not to mention they still don't know the long term efffects
"chemicals" meaning known ingredients containing propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine?
definitely less bad than "tar"
guess it depends which you choose
cdc lists as equal
CDC also hid the fact that the stuff that was killing people was vitamin E for months to drive up the hysteria
between the two people who I know died from it and everything I've read, it sure sounds worse
better than smoking cigars i suppose lol
1st time testing wireguard on a long haul, kicks lt2p and ovpn into dust.
Just the speed of negotiation and reconnect 
got cameras pointing at all your stuff in the garage so you can check on it quad? lol
lol pan and tilt with robot arm armed with an air duster to get those pesky dust balls that think they can form while your away all assisted with HA lmao
He's back to normal and playing hell as usual but he needs to be restricted for 10 more days.
the reason why I bought the one wyze cam I have was the two way communication the woman could have with her cat while caged after surgery since she had to to go to Chicago that week. best investment ever lol
Got wife to take time off pet sit which is my job usually.
I'd be watching tv in the other room and hear out of the blue talking to the cat lmao
I do that all the time. π
lol
i figured, thats why it's funny
some things you can't put a price on, certianly would have been pestering me with a million questions if I didn't have that camera so it was well worth it
i'd be like, i just answered all those questions the last time you called 10 minutes ago~!
I added 2 temp cameras just before I left since I need all angles covered till he fully recovers.
Lol, wife said the same thing few minutes ago. π€£
lol
Only raw eggs I eat are the yokes, on top of raw minced meat and onions
Beef tartare 
I still cannot believe our KFC went here lol https://9b16f79ca967fd0708d1-2713572fef44aa49ec323e813b06d2d9.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/1140x_a10-7_cTC/IMG-9472-1568913194.jpg
I can see our Hardee's doing something like that, but not KFC lol
Everybody worried about Coronavirus, when there's food like that readily available to buy and eat.
I both love and hate just how dumb people can be. reading the questions on a rpi camera module on amazon and as you scroll down you see some good questions, then you see some that are kind of questionable then you see the ones where it asks if it can record sound.. and your like..
People be idjits
KY state fair has a donut burger thing every year - one is a hamburger and plain glazed donut, the other is a grilled chicken patty and raspberry or strawberry filled donut. I got the grilled chicken one year, and to be honest I'd rather just have them independent of each other. The combination did not impress me. It's just too much.
Kentucky y'all
Mhmm

I locked a neighborhood cat that belongs to a lady a few streets over in my garage tonight cause she refuses to make him an indoor cat and all I can hear is coyotes howling in 3 directions from my house. that shit irritates me to no end that people think cats belong outdoors in the burbs and are perfectly safe from predator's
We have wolves, but only like 12 of them and people freak out if someone suggest letting them live, mostly we just get people chased by moose or raindeer
lol well wolves will go after people while in a pack
coyotes don't. well unless your crawling along the ground wounded lol
Norwegian wolves have never chased a person, nor killed or hurt one
maybe they don't run in packs there
But people fear them like bubonic plague
Yeah, they are 3 packs or something, all tracked
I don't imagine you all let your pets fend for themselves outside 24/7 either generally.. well not cats i would hope
do you even have cats? lol
wtf
The only ones that are not are in the big cities
Well... there we go. I was supposed to go to Oslo next week, but then I was told I should go to London instead. Then the trip to London got canceled because of the virus, and now the trip to Oslo... I'm glad I - in accordance with company guidelines - didn't "waste money" on rebookable plane tickets or anything.
I'm not. The meeting was canceled.

canceled meetings are the best
don't worry, the consumer will pick up the tab one way or the other.. we always do
I don't get how the cats survive outdoors
@forest edge Norwegian forest cat
house cats freeze to death
Nah, cats are fine, even in -35c they go outside
they must be wild cats, not house cats
Nah,even Persians go outside here
cause the general domesticated house cat can freeze just like us, get frostbitten just like us
They are outdoors animals
well here if they remain outside for too long they become somethings dinner
this same cat i havve in the garage now I brought indoors during our coldest niight of the year which got to like -11F or something
Puny muurica cats
I damn near drove to the ladys house that night, banged on her door and gavve her a good yelling
irritates me to no end
Oh I love those cats! Mine were some kind of Norwegian forrest mix.
They only have four toes, right?
The thing that kills most cats here is cars, because cats travel many miles every day and cross freeways
Think so yes @low harness
same goes for here but in the burbs it's alittle less so
had to put a towel on the woman's car cause he likes to lay on the hood lol
That's a white cat
π
orange
Mmmm cheese
is there a tv in the back of the seat infront of you or something?
only ever flown coach and the last time I was on an airplane was before 9/11 lol
Lol
went to NY infact like the year before 9/11.. was weird
All flights have that now, international ones that is
With video on demand and games and more
ah never been on one of those planes
one of them they put me on after a layover was a prop plane lol
f that, heights suck
I drive
We have prop planes for islands still
No prop planes for me. Last time was in Romania. No thank you.
lol
I enjoy prop
it was a scary experince
If my backpack is not going to fit in the same time and space that's not a safe ride.
I kept thinking of the movie with the Indians baseball team, the comedy, can't remember it's name but the black south african player did the jesus cross motion and the white guy said something like "oh now you come around, he's (pointing upward) not fooled"
rick vahn was the pitchers name
can't remember the name tho of that movie
major league
thats the name lol
Dash-8 Are also good planes
That's looks like it's for humans @clear ferry The one I was in, oh boy. Went from Bucharest to Turda. Never again.
@tidal bronze sounds like the plane my colleague took up to Nepal
Yep most likely.
There are few countries on my once is enough list, Romania is one of them.
π
yup, this is what I thinking about and what my prop plane was like lol https://y.yarn.co/45d84961-ce0c-40f5-a8dc-b5a0f73ad70e_screenshot.jpg
Eastern Europe is mostly meh, except the scenery and food
My problem was food.
Steak was not good.
ohhh you got steak?
I was just thankfull my lousy bag of peanuts wasn't pre-opened
Oh not in the flight, in Romania
@tidal bronze when are you coming to work in Norway? Great filming locations 
Going to come for a visit before work.
@clear ferry you should open a bed n breakfast type place and just invite everyone here to come stay a week for free lol
Not a bad idea.

that your new coronavirus emoji? lol
Sleep in a bed next to my rack, so you can smell my HA instance
so you want us to die from inhaling smoke?

@forest edge so when are we going to get invited to that ranch?
He is listening to https://open.spotify.com/track/1NDxZ7cFAo481dtYWdrUnR?si=t9tCf5HIRPuJIngpi6YIIA let's not disturb.
π€’
Lol whatever you have, technicalities aside.
Y'all
lol i have a farm that is 0.05% farm house and barns and the rest nothing but fields and tress with cattle lol
so unless your packing your own tent there wouldn't by much to "stay" at lol
well I livve in the burbs, but one day the plan is to build a house out there. still waiting on internet faster than dial up / cell data to make it's way there lol
So bring your own tent + BYOB too?
I don't stay out there lol
This shit is confusing to me
I have a spring fed pond that I use to camp and do camfire and fish at when i was younger but i'm too old for hard ground sleeping lol
whats confusing?
π€£
I live in one location in the city, and I own a farm that is in the middle of nowhere lol
Messing with you man.
Sounds awesome though.
So you play this from city to farm ? https://open.spotify.com/track/10M2Ex445zw585Ducldzkw?si=ZlOFRXCVQF6cycz6dWRGLA
it sounds awesome on paper but every 2 weeks I spend 4-5 hours mowing around the house and barns which makes it less awesome lol
Well that comes with territory still sounds like fun.
the no neighbors part is lol
it was my grandfathers and one of the stories everyone in my family always remember is when he use to stand on the front porch real early in the morning with a cup a coffee wearing absolutely no clothes lol
course i imagine that's probably a typical sight for norwats lol
@tidal bronze still haven't landed yet?

2 more hours.. so in another hour or so they will be passing out complimentary hazmat suits while going over the evacuation in a hurry from the plane routes and practices lol
@forest edge thanks for such comforting and kind words man.
I usually dont check stats like that. π
I would if it was an actual hot spot, but singapore isn't so thats why I feel safe giving you shit lol
π
otherwise if something happened I would feel bad π’
then blame atx cauise it was all his idea
Going gun to the smoking lounge Corona or not.
lol
Daughter changed the clock on the oven
Made me miss my bus
Wouldn't have happened if I had a smart oven with NTP
@low harness rebookable plane tickets cost a lot more long term
who relies on an oven clock in 2020?
@hushed basalt WTF are ye upto down there? https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-australia-51747892/coronavirus-in-australia-lorryload-of-toilet-paper-catches-fire
it was one of them cheap tasmota switches.
No one in my local dev community knows about homeassistant
Well not anyone I've spoken to
"So is that owned by Google?"
π±
You should consider moving
no balloob, pls
I know in some languages Google Assistant is called Google Home Assistant and it's caused confusion here before π
Oof yeah, that wouldn't help
I'm doing a talk on homeassistant next month
So expect an onslaught of aussies
Better stoke up the Barbie
Put another dropbear on
<New Integration Added: Deadly Animal Detector>
Isn't that just the Australian geolocation integration π€
I think deadly animals award goes to countries with man eating mammals

Aren't there dog and cats in most countries though π€
Grizzly bears, cougars, polar bears, lions, tigers, hippos
Technically hippos are herbivores but they're more dangerous than the rest put together so they stay on the list
None of these are in Australia
Yeah, but you have almost everything else - and weather from hell
π₯
I haven't seen a snake in my state since I was like.6
No one i know has ever been harmed by an animal
Biggest danger is probably europeans walking on the right on escalators and knocking you over
If you walk on an escalator , you are doing it wrong
My leg is sore so I'm taking the elevator
???? You're standing longer
You gotta walk on the escalator. It's just a force multiplier
1 x 2 = 2
3 x 2 = 6

When I can't have dairy :'(
Unfortunate. But pizza is just great.

There's no punchline
Gentlemen and atxbyea
I haave goooood news
my eye surgery went off without a hitch π

I'd call you a "Contemptman" from how you π€’ at everything.

I have a lovely little monitoring page using that covid-19 intergration
@pure vine are you a healthcare professional?
no
Just want to see how it grows as time goes on
Like, will it be exponetial like most viruses are
russia needs to bump their infected numbers or people are going to start getting suspicious
Goodness lol
they're probably either down-playing their numbers or are too incompetent and don't actually know how bad things are there'
or a third option, don't actually care enough to check as only the masses would get infected for now
They self medicate with vodka before seeking a doctor
wash your hands, don't touch your face, you be aiight
This discord server is a remote community
RIP in peace
im at home though and havent been out of the house all day
I have not been out since monday
I really dont want to go into uni
Uni has deciced that its not that bad and they wont do much
it's not.
yeah
although they made that announcement before the goverements announcements eairler
I assume some of these dots are just generally placed
the dots are central i think
But when looking at California and other states there are some that seem more rural than others
and if they have region data they put it there
I need to hurry up and stock up toilet paper, life saving.
i didnt realise how many cased italy had
@rain swift some of calis cases where caused by someone catching it on a cruise, partly why they announced a state of emergancy, as they have about 2,500 people to track down to test after somone died
The numbers for Norway is not half of what they report here π€
their data is a bit slow
it got to 90 about the time the goverment announced it, but london just announced 25 more cases
Too much hype on this shit.
so the real number is 115, but they still say 90
I agree @tidal bronze but the data aspect of it, are interesting
I've got a somewhat chipper sounding tts triggering whenever the confirmed number changes
Yes and no, @light trout, only responsible behavior can reduce infection rate. I am not certain what all these real time numbers are doing for ordinary people. Take different freeways ????
They are not doing anything π
People are idjits anyway, they will run around like headless chicken
I think more informed the problem is getting worse. Like everyone running to get supplies to one place when infected counter goes 10+ and the mp3 plays.
QUICK BUY ALL THE BOG ROLL
Exactly
I'll start to worry when a healthy 30 year old dies, until then it is just an aggressive flu that is getting tossed around by dirty Globetrotters
I think there's some projection there
@clear ferry who you calling dirty boi?
who you callin pinhead?
We keep a months worth of bog roll in out bathroom anyway, so it will be fine if everyone buys all the stock
@clear ferry toilet paper is for ebay dude, I am a dudewipe kinda guy. π
Ive told the city discord i mod this discord this
Better not be flushing those quad
Dudewipe π€’
Did flush like 32 last 20 hours.
Im going to put a link there too
City discord? is that a thing?
I can has @light trout ?
the discord is more linked to the cities subreddit than it is the city
@clear ferry goes well with that cherry coke.
Youre contributing to a fatburg quad!

Why are those even gendered anyway lol
marketing
So it does not smell like lavender
why are yorkies gendered
Because if they weren't men would go cooooooties
@scenic radish you like than morning lavender smell right ....?
some people do not get past middle school(year 6 - 8) behaviour
plebs!
Can't say I spend too much time smelling my butthole
gotta live that robobidet life
touching it though...
Any, really
Any is debatable. But......

I'd like to present my Rube Goldberg package: https://github.com/Tediore/Rube-Goldberg-Package
When I turn my dining room light on it... eventually turns it off
looks broken
Hmm?

People are a bit crazy @tidal bronze
so I'm hacking this program together
I'm not sure what the run on bottled water is for though
and it's MORE of a pain in the ass to make it looks like it works than it'd be to make it actually work
Taps will still be flowing
I have to store the stuff in a stupid data structure in browser memory
and there's no way to query it effectively so it's a lot of looping through a big datastructure and filtering based on fields
so yay
@wet pilot why not
@last dirge sounds like hell
"we told a client we'd demo something for them in 2 weeks that doesn't exist yet"
cool, good plan
"we also need a mobile extension for WeChat, even though you've never done that before and that alone could take the whole two weeks to figure out"
You know our motto, we deliver
and it's really amorphous requirements like "it needs to do this"
cool, so if I make it do that you'll say "yeah, but it doesn't do this"
Can't have scope creep if you don't have a scope
I want to message my friends but I forget they don't get up at 6am
why is my mac getting assigned 6 ipv6 public routable addresses o.o
because mac needs to keep itself mysterious
@brisk glen I have servers with multiple /64s assigned, 1 per bridge etc. 6 ips is nothing π
@strange vapor my issue is apparently ... Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6
I might need a dedicated firewall appliance....
trying to figure out how to allow a port on a device through the firewall
for ipv6....
you don't have a dedicated firewall? what do you have?
this might work via mac address as the source for lan in
allowing a port on ipv6 should be easy with anything resembling a firewall lol
USG
issue is the temp ipv6, so I cant bind to it like normaly
π
hate ipv6, publicly routable addresses on local machines, no thanks.
I rather be ipv6 ready
you plan to run out of IPv4 addresses on your lan?
I run a 10.0.0.0/21, aint never gonna run out.
I'll never eat up 1 subnet let alone 2,048
pow
16 /64 ipv6 subnets
you're ready for nanites with their own IPs.
@brisk glen the ip address is "global" because it's not NAT, but your firewall will not forward packets to your internal network without explicit opening
open a specific port in the ipv6 firewall for my fun download server
What router are you using
unifi usg
woot
I heard they are kinda limited. :\
their wifi stuff is amazing, they should stick to that.
@rain swift so I have 2 options
Configuring a static IPv6 address that inherits delegated prefix or get a nas π
I think Im going to get a nas π
Ipv6 is coming for you
Woot, got a few Shelly 1PMs today that I started messing around with.
Just learned about these
its a plug right?
No itβs that red thing
yeah, what does it dooo
Itβs a relay with WiFi and a web server that can accept switch input and works with 110-240ac
nice
Well if it isn't compatible the magic smoke will just come out
Just thought of a cool use too. I have outdoor lights that are already wired into a light sensor (when they built the house). I can open up that sensor and put one in there.
i love the idea of making dumb things smart.
Have the lights flash for various automations or be able to turn them off a night if I want.
I do too @rain swift
get my soldering iron tomorrow, learn to solder, then look out world.
tuya convert station? sounds interesting lol
there's gonna be an mcu attached to everything. π€£
yes
there's a video where you basically set it up to just pick from a menu, put the device into fast join, and boom it gets flashed
i gotta dive into this stuff...wife likes the idea of automated oil diffuser
you can do them in mass lol
I have 2 of those bath and body works deals coming tomorrow with the cheap smart plugs I have to flash
I'm not sure if these actually come with some oil lol I may have to go get some.

Is there a βwhere are they nowβ for all the people featured in memes?
Lol thatβs great! Thanks @forest edge I think that will get me through the rest of this Friday afternoon at work.
goodness lol
That one sucked, we always used to laugh about the different variations people came up with.
Lmao π
well it's good to know the government is taking a proactive stance on all the fraud coronavirus cure scams lol
Speaking of Mr. Silver? That's the only one I've heard (so far).
Doesn't stop the hysteria and people running down to the store to stock up on toilet paper and napkins. π€·
so now they are saying cat5e can handle up to 5Gbit. love how they change their minds what cable can handle what just before releasing new hardware to get people to buy
Honestly you can get 10Gb/s over CAT5 depending on length of run. If it's a couple feet, there's no reason you can't get 10Gb/s on properly specced (not thin run crap) cable.
All depends on what you've got on hand, and if you feel like upgrading.
I see no mention of 10g running over 5e but considering they say 5gb over 100m on 5e now is possible then why the hell not lol
so no one likes my rube goldberg machine huh? π’
junk often gets overlooked around here, you may need to post it in the appropriate channel to get noticed
oh wait, i don't see a #garbage channel
jk
OH
π₯
I thoroughly enjoyed it. Better than Justice League for sure
jfc that's nightmare fuel
ohhh the shelley 3em whole house device looks promising.
The what now? 
5G never existed before
So of course they couldn't say cat5e did it
They're not changing things just because of new tech
But I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole
If you want greater than 1G you really just need to upgrade your structured cabling.
they are releasing 2.5 and 5 explicitly because of the cost it would take rerun wiring for many businesses and consumers
course don't take that out of context, releasing lower branched speed below 10 only makes them more money but many wouldn't upgrade just to meet 10g when you don't even need it
Cat5e is rated for 100Mhz and no cross talk specification
It will be a shit storm trust me
I'm not complaining at all for the simple fact my home is wired for 5e so it just means my wiring will remain relevant for that much longer lol
no idea what it will be
without testing it and seeing
You guys and your fancy network wired houses. pffff π
house i live in was built in 1956, they hardly had phone wires in this house.
yea but your home is also likely easier to fish wire through because of it's age
yeah it's not bad. basement was unfinished so we got to run a few where it mattered most.
one of the few upsides of older homes, they didn't know what insulation was let alone had any ideas of putting anything between inner walls and floors lol
I will never use them and I like the look of a cover plate better than a phone jack plate
suprise you didn't find a secondary use for the phone wires if your not using them lol
yeah the 3 TVs in the house are all wireless now (Roku Stream Sticks) except the one in the living room (for DVR functionality). it's actually nice to not have to figure out how to get coax to a place you don't have it.
copper is copper and juice is juice lol
It's a big loop, not much you can do with rhat
if you still have service, they serve as a powered line if your electricity is out. can charge a phone or flashlight with phone line π
I haven't found the ingress point at least
Eh, it was all shittily added by a Telco who didn't give a shit
Ie through the exterior wall from the outside
If it was actually done correctly I would consider keeping it
No service
oh they ran it around the outside then in through the walls?
Yup
yeah that's the norm where i live too. line coming down from power line pole, straight through the wall of the house.
they still do that shit, annoying. why i prewired my house with coax when i remodeled and removed that outside crap
Yup, if I were to gut this place and start over I would run the coax
fiber lines can't get here fast enough. always puts a smile on my face to see a technician worth his salt do a nice, clean fiber install.
My fiber run was decent but then they accidentally cut the line when they were installing my neighbor 2 months ago. Haven't re-burried it yet
Is there a new DOCSIS revision?
so Cat5e is 5Gb/s and coax is 10Gb/s? what a world we live in. snrk
my DOCSIS 3 (Arris SB6183) can do 686Mb/s just we don't actually have a company capable of providing that. it's either Spectrum (up to 300 or 400 Mb/s over coax) or Verizon or AT&T for 1Gb/s fiber
Spectrum claims 1g here
that's solid. does TV come over the fiber then at that point?
you'd need a different cable box I assume
No idea
I went art for fiber since they're more likely to actually hit their claimed speeds that way
Att
this article says that 4.1 would even support 25G lol https://stopthecap.com/2019/06/25/cables-docsis-4-0-symmetrical-broadband-coming/
Also I don't do tv
I keep YouTube tv around for some hockey games but then I turn it off for the summer
course that interference crap will come into way more play as they increase this shit so it won't be all fluffy bunnies for everyone
Yup
i remember when Spectrum gave everyone "free" upgrades when they upgraded their own networks from bonded coax to fiber, simply because they could deliver 100x the bandwidth in the same amount of physical space. was a nice gesture.
lol yea
was Time Warner Cable when that happened I think but yeah the speed was nice without the extra $$$
I rode that wave
basically 10x'd our speed for no additional cost.
I also remember paying 50 bucks for 30 down and 10 up or 5 up, don't remember which it was
90 for gig symmetrical here
this was before the fiber boom
i remember going from AOL dial up to Insight Broadband cable.. was like "Holy crap I can play Diablo II while you're on the phone? This is awesome!"
Lol
lol aol
Yeah, we jumped from dial up to fios
ikr? my mother still uses the Aol Desktop Gold thing
creature of habit.
which is hilarious because she insists on getting a new phone yearly.
I remmeber when fios came out and wasn't an option for me but had friends who had it.. bastards
We were stuck for a bit because they killed dsl before rolling out fios
yeah we waited out the dsl train because it was terrible coverage when it came out. literally 5 minute drive away from aunt who could get it, and we couldn't.
cable came through, we hopped on it.
was a lot of neat innovations that came with fios. shit everyone has now but was neat then lol
Apparently it was using dsl protocols in the back end which is strange
lol
Not sure if that is still the case
saving money they would use shoe string if they could
we joke about that at work, our datacenter running on salted kite string. π
on a good day it takes 10 seconds to SSH to a terminal that's a 3 minute walk away
Ouch
isp are cheap asses
i'm sure it's mostly all the monitoring and VLANning and routing and whatnot we have layered on top. it's insane.
many still think we wouldn't even gotten our upgrades through twc/spectrum if it weren't for the pressure from google
this is true.
Definitely
Google did our city wrong though π (Louisville KY)
That's the only reason att fiber is here (Charlotte NC)
they came in, wrecked streets downtown (left huge long trench lines in the streets, patched but not the best), and pulled out.
that where they did that new method of fibver lining that tore evverything up?
mhm
Yeah, that would have been killer
well, they had to pay a big fine so π€· maybe they'll think about it next time? i wish it would've worked out.
I have google fiber literally on 3 sides of my suburbs but google stopped expanding before getting to me
Lol they learned the wrong lesson. They're no longer deploying at all
they had a lot of pushback from companies refusing to let them access their poles. then the FTC deemed poles a utility like electricity and water and they had to allow it.
yes π
Google has very severe ADHD.
take a thing, obsess over it for a bit, kill it.
Cough messaging services cough
π
i probably should be thankful tho
traditional cable tv is still more reliable than ip
It is not worth the cost at all
the cost becomes muddy when you want certian channels tho
Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
If the show is only available online through a bespoke streaming service I obtain it through other means
lol "other means" yea I know what your talking about
I have Netflix and Amazon and that's more than enough
it would be nice if there was a service where you literally picked every channel you wanted and paid accordingly than dealing with different bundles you have to add too
yeah same. those two plus Youtube (not even Red) are enough to keep me entertained when i'm bored of other stuff.
Bundles are enforced by the content holders
They will never let that go because they would lose a fuck ton of money
piracy is back on the rise the last couple years because of how so many companies have their streaming services now. it's like reversed the work Netflix and Hulu and whatnot did, having so many deals. problem is each company wants to make the most $$$ so they pull out and consumers end up losing in the end.
yep.
I don't think it ever went down lol
but yea the sheer amount of diffrent streaming servvices all wanting to be paid is dumb
Nah, it actually did for a while there except for game of thrones
who the hell pays for cbs go or whatevver it's called lol
No one
Especially considering star trek is available on Amazon in the rest of the world
I can see the disney+ thing ONLY because of kids
Even then
hopefully something will burst and they will stop that crap or at least bring the prices down so it's more like how it use to be which was "affordable"
They'll all fold and they'll start having to renegotiate with Netflix from a position of weakness
yeah in the end, now at least, it's more expensive to get the channels you used to get bundled.
only difference now is you can get on demand more stuff than you can with a cable subscription but it's still not worth the cost.
I saw netflix still does dvd's lol
Netflix have a lot of original content which are pretty good though, if you're adventurous.
Hence the use of "other means" spiking
that blew my mind
lmao really. that's neat.
i remember when they went up from 8/mo to 12/mo but still honored their agreement of the "we won't charge you more for 2 years" thing
and 4k is even more too. and more screens.
we did amazon prime for a month cause it was free and I really didn't see much on there
I have the internet and display for it
i was shocked when Youtube started doing 4k how great it looked on a 120Hz 55" 4K TV.
kinda soap opera feel but when you get used to it it's awesome.
There are a few gems on Amazon. I have prime for the shipping though
amazon is kind of under fire atm
i did watch good omens, that was good
π i sucked the blood out of the student thing, used it for like 6 years before they finally were like "dude you've been with Amazon for long enough as a student. you've surely graduated by now. It's $120 a year now guy."
lol
Lol
the 50% off was sweet though. i was really in college when i started, just never changed my account to non-student until they "caught me"
can't remember if that show the boys? was on amazon or netflix.. about the dirty super heroes and the guy who was set out to kill them lol
Oh that is on Amazon and was awesome
I would think the second season would be coming out soon
Should be
well crap if thats on amazon may have to do another month when that drops lol
it was dark lol
Karl Urban's cockney accent in Amazon's The Boys is absolutely diabolical π±π€£
You're (not) welcome π
It's like casting a not-disdifferently-abled person to play a disdifferently-abled person. Like you couldn't, in all of the world, have found a more fitting actor?
It would have been fine if they just made him American
He can do American
Being British was totally irrelevant.
Yeah but as we all know, tough guy accents get the point across more. π
I think they just wanted to keep him sounding as he does in most of his other movies
Jason Statham doing Cockney -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WvIwkL8oLc
Who wore it better?
*Ok... We couldn't afford Jason Statham, so we got what we could afford!
Learn aspects of the Cockney accent and even take a little test at the end!
If you like the video, be awesome and share it!
Use the subtitles if you need them! ...You WILL need them, trust me!
Don't for...
And now Youtube probably thinks I'm interested in the Cockney accent. Dammit.
could be worse, it could think you are interested in the "cock"
every video showing up like this https://youtu.be/-Tcp1mWZ9fw
Karl Urban - a New Zealander playing an East Londoner for an American TV show. π
yeah or something called "cock knee", which although I refuse to search it, i'm sure exists.
pssh read
not enough, i'll admit. i've listened to two audiobooks in the last 5 years or so. i tend to get into podcasts though.
I absorb my knowledge through osmosis
Non-fiction, whenever I need to. I probably read three or four of those a year on average.
reverse osmosis, over MQTT ?
I'm reading Turn The Ship Around atm
It's interesting. It's a leadership/management book written by a nuclear sub captain

Demonstration of poorly distributed weight affects the travel of a trailer: - https://gfycat.com/unlawfulsaltychinesecrocodilelizard
Bonus points if you move the weight close to the tow hook, so that the front wheels of the car start to lift...
Trying to drive a car in that state is ... interesting I'll tell you π¬
Haha
I drove away a hundred kilos of mortar blocks from my back yard
The.... Weight was too far back to begin with
Funny to see the rear tires try to fly
Moved it more forward 
But then it was too heavy there
Yeah, there's an art to loading trailers
trailers have hitch weight max and axle weight max. here in the US although doesn't happen very often it does happen that people will overload the front half of the trailer between the hitch and the axle and then break like the ball hitch not understand how the weight distributes
that demo dosen't even have a pin where the weight should actually go
Should be about 10% of trailer weight on the hitch iirc
just out of curiosity does anyone know why checking via CLI takes longer then checking via the UI
That's for ha Core when i run ha core check
#330944238910963714 might, but it's likely because the UI skips stuff
let me ask there since it really intrigues me π

i18n is a pain in my ass
Today is going to be mostly busy work π
I would like to have busy work again
Have at it, take mine
Share some and I do some freelancing at yours for 150 an hour
Hard no.
You can have some of my 50-70 hour weeks that are fully booked for 4-6 weeks
I would simply decline over-hours just like I did until now π
Yeah I'll sell you my workload for today for $150/hr
Some overtime is nice with $90 per hour 
Damn son
For me the first 8 hours of a month overtime is being cut off to 0
Thus I just don't
Assuming a 2080-hour year my hourly rate based on my salary is $31.50...
Can't complain though. Weekly net pay is around $950
Paid every Friday which is dope
Also depends on where you live, as that could be an awesome salary, or a I'm going deeper into debt just trying to live
Just outside Chicago...
Glad to say I'm doing fine though
Mortgage is $330/month π
It's also a question on how you live. Considering, I earn more than my parents and my uncle , doing also good and not too bad paid jobs. Also in regards to others I do earn.. very well. Just for germany.. it's always too less. And my high life standard does not help there saving...
I'm like
