I'm hacking through a single page app for demo purposes and the deep links aren't working
so the URL is like /zh/drivers
drivers is virtual and not an actual folder
is there an easy way to capture everything past a first token like /zh/ or /en/ and then tack that on the end of a redirect?
that greedy regex
Regex for the win confusion
@last dirge does setting up NGINX on my server count as being a web admin?
I'll take your lack of reply as a yes

I mean, at some level 🙂
@scenic radish my rule was fine, I was just an idiot and made one of my directories a locale code vs just a language code
Through some miracle my bubble-wrap cpu from corona-land actually seems to work.
The microserver now calculates primes 7.5 times faster, and in 8 threads rather than 2.
Lol "corona-land"
What about secundos and septims @low harness ?
Now I can finally get it off my desk and into the closet.
Nice! I can scrub in plex with this thing.
Yep, RIP in peace me
so xiaomi came out with a "smart light switch" to work with smart bulbs that involves a screw on the backside of a plastic rocker that makes the switch "bounce" back to the on position so the smart bulbs will always have power lol
I really hope there is more to it than that but so far that's what I'm gathering lol
That's a yikes from me dawg

awfully quiet in here today
yep
told you, corona virus
i'm still mulling over if I want to try to enable this home assistant cloud jazz and give my wife control of everything from the echos lol
There's one clock I never moved an hour back 6 months ago and now I don't need to move it forward! 🎉
Does anyone know if there’s a different OS I can install in a steam link? I tried to google if Android was possible but couldn’t find much
@scenic radish same with my rice cooker
my state's discussing going away from daylight savings time
Everyone should consider killing it
it is annoying but at the same time it does help keep the whole day/night thing in check
coronavirus can live up to 10 days on surfaces.. touch nothing!
Does anyone know of a sensor that you could attach to a cat/dog flap and let you know when the door was opened and the direction of the opening
I was thinking some sort of flex sensor near the hinge
hey all, can someone please explain to me the need for "@classmethod" in python. I watched the video many times and read guides, still unsure the usage for it. just not clicking
Have you watched corey Schafer @vale ore
no, I haven't. can you point me in the right direction
In this Python Object-Oriented Tutorial, we will be learning about classmethods and staticmethods. Class methods are methods that automatically take the class as the first argument. Class methods can also be used as alternative constructors. Static methods do not take the inst...
That might have it. Otherwise it might be in a decorators video
@hushed basalt double ir sensors on both sides?
@hushed basalt I'll be dipped in shi*, very nice explanation, he just earned a new sub. missed this video. Thanks for the share.
Has anybody installed a Shelly 1pm into a US light switch that can share a how to video or guide?
The instructions provided are very minimal.
I have found some videos online but the comments all mention that the video maker is installing the device incorrectly.
@dusty cosmos i have, follow the pamphlet instructions
course i literally just told the woman the throw the boxes away 2 days ago so i don't have that thing infront of me lol
Thanks, I have the pamphlet but I'm not the most experienced with reading wiring diagrams, I'm hoping someone makes a video I can follow.
Is this video correct?
Here is a Installation tutorial on how I install a Shelly 1PM relay switch to make standard light a switch Smart. The PM stands for Power Monitoring so you'll know how much power you're consuming. If you're not familiar with electrical please hire an electrician.
I haven't seen a video that shows it cause all the ones i saw they did weird stuff, plus I think they made like a revision at some point cause some of the 1pm's the pinouts are diffrent places
I have the non ul version
sw and L1 connect to the existing light switch poles, doesn't really matter which goes where. L goes to Hot (load) N goes to Neutral and O goes to the Hot line leading to the light
Ok so it sounds like that video is incorrect then.
the diagram actually shows it correctly on the pamplet that coes with the shelly
@scenic radish you better have at least 50 of these stuck all around lol https://www.amazon.com/MAGNET-Jurassic-Pepe-Magnet-Fridge/dp/B07GRKGJ6L
at first I thought this was a joke then I saw how off centered some of the holes were on the torx bits lol
Only the best quality for supermarket tool sets
As hundreds of shoppers storm this Los Angeles Costco to stock up on goods as fears of coronavirus grow, they’re met with a warning – supplies are being rationed to keep up with the unprecedented panic shopping. Our camera crews were allowed exclusive access inside the store b...
Costco's stock is doing pretty well
Home Assistant is one of the best thing I accidentally discovered
Before home assistant I was anti hub
anti proprietary hub isn't the same as anti hub. one is perfectly acceptable lol
The "hub" has to be somewhere
Whether that's some techs company's cloud, or a local one
HA is slowly becoming more and more mainstream friendly too,
Could be a serious threat to google, amazon etc in the future
Hopefully not, we can only handle so many n00b questions
@forest edge daylight saving almost makes sense above the Arctic circle, but for the rest of the world, meh
we gain an hour and 12 mins of daylight over the course of this month, without daylight savings fallback then push forward the sunrise/sunset would mess with many people in various ways
it's more than just digits on a clock lol
Those puny humans should go above the Arctic circle both in summer and winter then 
Experience real messing
well if your born there, spend your whole life there that's diffrent
Research has shown that the disruption of moving the clocks is much worse than when the sun goes up and down
disruption to office workers maybe
It's just annoying tbh
That's why the argument is there, office workers dont care when the sun is up
EU is abolishing it now i think
Also, it doesn't hold for livestock farming as the cows don't know what time it is
city people have no need for it, everyone else does
Yeah, 2021 is the last year
it holds very much for farmers
Russia already removed it
If you feed them at 5a every morning you now have to feed them at 4a
it's more than just digits on a clock
Planting, picking, and irrigation is largely automated too
for me personally, the only thing i like about it is knowing roughly about what time it is when the sun is in a certian position of the sky, but like for my father and his farther it was more important
It's a lie that has been told by Ben Franklin that everyone bought in to

maybe but a lie you can count on being accurate for what it is
There is no scientific proof that it does anything benefitial and plenty that says it causes harm
Noticible impact on traffic accidents for the weeks following clock changes
Daylight savings is a pita on network devices too, because not everyone has tables about beginning and ending of it
your joking right
Increase in expenses for lighting costs
Nope
Throwing off the circadian rythem is no joke
thats bs
Expenses go up, efficiency does down, health risks are documented. Benefits are slim to none. It is a bad policy and everyone involved should feel bad
There is links to each study, so you can read it yourself 
ok so in today's world people health are worse than it's ever been. so if you ask me this crap is picking at straws
Daylight savings is gross
I'm glad my state dumped it
I mean in Summer the days are so long why do you need an extra hour
@forest edge you mean my 8 sick days in 13 years ? 
well you wouldn't feel that way if computers were never invented lol
@clear ferry there is no arguing health in general is worse than it has ever been. regardless if we live longer than say 100 years ago or whatever, overall health is declining while new health issues continue to climb
we eat worse, exercise less, air is worse, water is worse
yea but at 40 you could be 70 health wise lol
Norway doesn't have coal power stations too which helps
They just ship all their fossil fuels off for other people to burn ;)
@hushed basalt come here, cheap child care!
Mm I'd love to move to Norwat
Wife wouldn't accept it though
Plus I'd be that outcast foreigner who only speaks da anglish
We are very including of women! And hearing problems! And working Aussies! And babies ! And I need someone to teach me k8s
most clocks auto set themselves this day and age. people just don't want to deal with losing an hour of sleep. people can't drive as is so trying to blame DST is a joke. as i said, city people have no use for it but everyone else does. but if the mass veto's it, it will get veto'd but I personally like the one thing I mentioned about it and not having it will throw me off prob the rest of my life lol
no they dont
Try having dairy cattle come in an hour later by clock
I see multiple job adverts for it by googling it @hushed basalt
All your animals work on sun time but trucks come an hour earlier
well coming from a family of farmers never heard such issues 😉
Dairy farmers here hate it
never did dairy
but cattle in geberal came when food was put out regardlessd the hour
Livestock farmers have major issues with it
omg
What's the upside
None
Having an hour more sunlight in the evening to wake up an hour darker
None benefits, major downsides
it adjusts over the course of the summer
Which would still be the case if you didn't move the clocks
So gaining nothing and causing issues
if you didn't adjust the clocks you wouldn't have as much daylight with the time frame
that was it's whole point
thats why farmers don't hate DST
exactly
Why do you need to shift an hour when the day is already so long
so the actual "working" class who spends their whole day to make money also needs to come home and still do work. now for farmers the extra time during the evening meant they could still do things within normal business hours while still having daylight to do things before the sun set
thats why DST has held it's ground
now everyone else who don't have to do those things, don't get that
but those people need it
if your bank sudddenly decided to close an hour earlier when normally you could make it there after work, it would impact you negativvily weouldn't it?
shame on you
I have moved my loans twice since then, and done three car loans
But not been in a bank
one day you'll lose the internet and atx will be so lost lol

farmers in general seem to get screwed over and over for the past few decades
doesn't make sense
I rent my farm out to a a guy who does cattle for slaughter and holy hell am I glad I missed having to do what he does by one generation
If the bank closes at 4pm
And you can only work during the daylight
Daylight starts an hour later with DST
So i don't get how it's a positive
the daylight shifts over the course of the summer
so right now in march, it dosen't make sense
from your point of view
this day in age it's harder to picture how it impacted things because everything is different now. There is no real argument aside from the minority who still use it and those who profit from it so that's why it's being done away with little by little. like for me, it's a minor thing that I will lose so that's why i don't care that much lol but when i was a kid, it was a whole different story, it impacted more people
why did half of AU use DST and the other half didn't?
I don't get that at all
We have a larger natural variation in daylight hours I guess. For example in Darwin NT, no point with DST as the actual daylight hours don’t vary much during the year. However the further south you get the more they do. Some states have trialed it off and some have always had it
ok that makes sense
The closer you are to the Equator the less it makes sense. Same goes for the close you are to the poles. There’s a sweet spot I guess that some people argue it works for
can't imagine it being around for too much longer anywhere
norway will adopt it after everyone else ditches it cause that's how they roll @clear ferry
Yeah I’ve lived in different parts of Aus and I’m not really bothered. I don’t care either way if they keep it or remove it
Our states are very wide
Which also means a larger variation from solar noon and clock noon
The day doesn't shift though? It just gets longer
are you implying the sun doesn't shift over the course of a year? l;ol
It's up longer. But it doesn't "shift"
So it rises earlier in summer and sets later in summer
It's constantly shifting, it a burning ball of : 🔥
Daylight savings is a shift.
One day it'll shift out and envelope us all
Except for Norwat because even runaway fusion doesn't want to go there

DST would have to be dynamic to keep up with the intentions of what some like about DST and also argued for. I tried looking up a decent article that explain what I grew up experiencing but they all seem to center around it being a retail conspiracy lol
If anything DST would be better in winter
I did see your dairy cow article lmao
So you have some daytime after work
Even if you'd have to drive to work in pitch black
when i got dragged out of bed early in the morning to do "work" it didn't matter if it was daylight out or not cause the tradition was always drinking coffee and bs'ing for like an hour before doing any actual work
but having the day stretch on longer in the evening was beneficial
I live like a hermit and never see the sun anyway so what’s it matter to me. I time everything by bowel movements
lmao
Go to Svalbard in winter
I did my stretch of that for a time lol
Then we can agree on DST
having to piss was the only time I would be away from the computer to remember to actuall eat food lol
@clear ferry noone in thier right mind wants to go somewhere where the sun never goes away
@thorny summit 👋 thanks for helping to debug what’s going on with HA!
I could probably handle perpetual night better than the sun always being up
Both are equally fun in their own way
althought havving to work outside, always night and always cold would suck
I had to teip garbage bags on my window to be able to sleep during the summer
I would too
I would just build a house without windows
She also got access to all my test-tabs, something shethought was very confusing and didn't appreciate.
lol both curious and don't want to know at the same time lol
@forest edge time to plan that trip to Northern Norway
when the world is ending to something other than a natural type disaster I will consider it. most don't go toward the cold lol
this isn't far from me https://youtu.be/OI2ZDIP0ZWo

Is it just me or is hydrogen as a fuel source just dumb
Make it from fracking, it's just a fossil fuel.
Make it from "renewable sources". Build solar panels to make energy to pump and filter water, split the molecules with energy, compress and freeze it, transport it with fossil fuel driven vehicles to boil it off into a tank to pump it into a car into a fuel cell that doesn't exist yet
Calling the sun dumb, smh
all ice hotel in Sweden looks interesting
funny they include a "warm" room so people don't freeze to death if they can't handle it lol
Torturing myself voluntarily doesn't sound fun
I've previously slept in rooms that got down to a few degrees above freezing. It's not that bad...
Always fun to wake up and chip the ice off the inside of the window
What? Why lol
i'd be chipping the ice off my beard
Hey guys quick Q. Would running a telephone extension (in the UK) introduce latency on my broadband?
@forest edge we have two of those in Norway too
wouldn't they melt during times of the year atx?
Yeah, they build them up every year
lol f that
Same with the Swedish one I think
The Ice Hotel is awesome!
the sweden one i saw was permanent
really? it was all wired and such
But they have a bar in Stockholm that's permanent.
do they just bring in snow and repack the walls or something? and how could that be an ice hotel if the frame isn't made of ice lol
I think it's just a small bar in an old freezing storage or something.
But they probably have to do a lot of maintenance.
Yeah they rebuild them every year
Takes about a week I believe
Everything is snow and ice
the thing i saw was a huge building, but they had electric door locks and such, the bathroom was made of stone tho
the bathroom was the "warm" room
so people could escape from freezing lol
They usually include a huge sauna too
yea it had that
didn't look huge, but it was a sauna
this is what i saw. https://youtu.be/l8QBw0AurCk

Woah! You can get a room as cheap as $250 now!
Never mind. That's a "warm" room.
The art rooms still cost at least $500 per night it seems.
Aye, pricey
Usually booked a year in advance too
We have boats that do cruises to the north pole too
oh it's not permanent. that sucks
I find it interesting that people have such a wrong view about the cold and the snow

Hello!
I have put myself into quite a pickle
I made my frontend invisible to both public and private network
is there anything I can do to salvage my installation?
make sure you have SSL enabled, and have a strong password.
If you want to remove public access, you can remove that port forwarding or block that port
the problem was caused by enabling SSL in the configuration
after a reboot, it never came back

BAN HIM!!
Reeeeeee
lol they say because of the lockdown china is having blue skies and clear air for the first time since the last outbreak

aqara motion sensors are still the cheapest motion sensors out there, aren't they
other than DIY shit
yes and reliable
Yeah I already have one, using it for the kitchen lights after sunset
was thinking about ordering a bunch to set up in the hallway and other rooms
yea i prolly got about a dozen
do you have them hooked up through mqtt or the xiaomi gateway?
mine is on the gateway because I have the gateway in the kitchen (makes for a good wall lamp)
same i got two gateways ... they are nightlights and good for siren (alarm)
@clever mortar put in underbed leds for when i get up to pee .....WOW can see to go pee
Nice, that's a thing I'm thinking about
Of course, I also want to use that as an excuse to play with some WLED and digital LEDs 😄
Huh, I should do that too sometime
@dull chasm led strip to the bottom of your bed?
i might have went over board thou ... 325 2812b's set to 80% and lights up whole damn rooms floor
@midnight adder yes
now to get sexy time going ....wonder if wife will like .... thinking beats per minute type thing 🤣
LOL
🤢
I put a temperature sensor on my radiator to warn me before going to bed that I should turn the radiator off
it's cheaper than buying a smart thermostat lol
@midnight adder mine are via zigbee2mqtt, retiring all the propitary gateways
Also better range by having all my ZigBee in one mesh
yeah I haven't gotten around to moving everything to the zigbee mesh because the gateway just works really well and has a better range than the zigbee stick I got
and it's already there as a light and alarm so why not
can i make homeassistant only use UDP connections?
because of the coronavirus i want to avoid handshakes as much as possible
airgap your machine and you will be ok 🤣
@clear ferry does your cc1352 work
@hushed basalt yaaaaaas
Anyone know if it's possible to see the endpoints or whatever IFTTT uses to be triggered by an external event? For instance, I want to trigger an automation when ComEd announces a peak time savings event, and there's an IFTTT trigger for this, but I don't want to use IFTTT
How do they announce it?
Obviously IFTTT must be made aware of these events somehow but I can't find anything in ComEd doesn't have an API that shows it
Email and text message
I could hack together something with that
Email should be doable somehow
But I'd rather be more direct
Might be a challenge to grab the start time
And end time
But I'm not looking for home assistant support here, just wondering if there's a way to see what IFTTT either polls or is pushed
Might actually reach out to ComEd support. They have what is apparently a decent API for hourly pricing so it'd be nice if there were something else for peak time savings

Hi
so I have a hassio VM that i've setup the way I want it
can I "backup" it and transfer it to a raspi 3b
and just "restore" it there or will there be any problems?
Going down 🤢
@atomic frigate #330944238910963714
#integrations-archived @midnight adder
hello
i am looking at what to buy to run hA
looking for x86 stuff that could possibly run kodi as well
found a chromebox asus cn60, I7 on ebay
for 80€ the bids are still running, what do you think of this ?
Should be fine, better than a Pi anyway
For ha, sure, but it's a 7 year old mid range desktop CPU inside a propitary box, that you can perhaps dual boot with a beta firmware
Not sure what os you are planning to run
linux
If you are willing to invest a little more you could probably get a 4 year old newer CPU with a standard x86 environment
Linux you say
Make sure you know how to get Linux running on it 😉
i did try to make an asrock 5005u build , i ended up with 200€
and 320€ to run it as a nas
I still suggest HP microservers - N54L or N40L. Enough power, x86 CPU, and plenty of drive bays - if you can find one on fleabay
I heard IBM Q is the best hardware to run Home Assistant
Can't be worse than IBM z series 🤢
lmao
on the up side the HP microservers N54L or N40L are dirt cheap , on the down side , passmark is not > 2000 and i guess they aren t fanles
Fanless 🤢
i live in 25 sqm i want fanless 🙂
What's the exact model number atxbyea
if i put the server in the toilet or in the shower , maybe i wont hear it
now , what do you have ?
A synology ds916+
yes passmark < 2000 is not only for transcode , it will mean in general it is slow
That's pretty quiet too but it's in the garage
The microserver is ancient, do not attempt
25sqm? What are you automating? That is half of my garage 
Did you want multiple hdd bays
it s 3 lights , a fan and i hope the heating next winter
7 lights total

desktop, ceiling, bed, kitchen , hallway, bathroom mirror , bathroom ceiling
Do you want something that has 4 hdds?
4hds would be perfect , but it add a lot to the budget
i did my "perfect" step on amazon , ended up at 320€
asrock 5005u+ hotswap case , pico psu , 4gb ram
If you get a second hand desktop SFF
so it has hdmi2 , 4 sata , usb3, toslink
Can fit 1-2 hdds and you can probably get it for 100 euro
i looked at sff and ussf , i think all are with fan ?
there are a lot of them for sell in uk
With a 4th core i7, 8gb ram and 128gb ssd
They all have fans but they're designed to run quiet
You wouldn't hear it if you put it in a slightly vented cupboard
You're not going to get something fanless unless you custom build and go with mobile grade cpus
yes
i did the same build on amazon without the hdd hotswap , and it ends up being 200€
because for 50€ the case includes the cpu , so that s 70 less from the picopsu , and the case itself is cheaper
it tick all cases , but i d need somethign next to it , so maybe a fantech/raidsonic
You don't need hotswap for home
true, but i didn't found a small case for 4 drives
I wouldn't try to strive for fanless perfection
Just stick to big quiet fans
120mm fans marketed for quiet PCs will be inaudible
Fractal Design have good cases with sound dampening material
I'd put your best foot forward on case and PSU as they can last 10+ years
Yup, low power CPU - larger case - big slow fans
thats the 200€build : Case ITX-601 ITX Noir, 60 W / Crucial CT4G4SFS824A 4Go / Asrock j5005b Mini-ITX Gemini Lake
i saw the node 304 case for 6 drives, too big
I've a 25W Xeon with a power supply that's not fully fanless, but almost never spins up the fans. With some low noise fans, it's only the disks you hear
You could even solid state all the things nowadays
Yup, though 10 TB of SSD would be costly 😄
95% of the stuff I watch is steaming nowadays.
i think i have like 14tb, ssd , would be out of budget
yes
You're trying to dampen each drive individually
Think of laying a surfboard on a layer of thick honey. That's the ideal dampening
hahah
my current build is in the mostly silent range you speak of
dampened hdd , silent case, large fans
large case with a tuner tv inside and all the drives , htpc build
I used to have a HTPC eons ago
but i want somthing always on , compeltely silent , low power , so it can stay on 24/7
Even fanless stuff can be noisey
how can they ?.
haaa
Seriously half the solid state electronics I own will make noise if you listen
i don t think i did hear any euch noise in the recent years, maybe i am getting deaf slowly
You'll be chasing a white whale going "silent"
Good quality case, good quality PSU with hybrid passive/active cooling, and big case fans from silent PC companies
Probably
My last computer would make noise when I scrolled a webpage
Anything with A frequency in it will make noise, it's just ususally it's low enough and high frequency enough we can't hear it
But sometimes it drops into audible zonss
I'm so used to datacenters with thousands of spinning drives I frankly don't care
i guess it s mostly the fans at the dc that makes noise
I can hear a failing drive from 20 meters away
everyone is on power mode and all the fan spin at max speed and on the pizzaboxes there are 3 in serial
Fans are just background noise
odd
Pizza boxes 🤢
Video contains scenes from S03E03, S03E09, S04E01, S05E08
Those are for newbs
Actual documentary of atxbyea
I should probably watch silicon valley though
Halt and catch fire was too good in the first seasons, so I ignored it
hoo the asrock is usb3.1 as well as the raidsonic
hooo they were bad with that naming
USB 3.1 Gen 1 is actually usb 3
I think the first season or two of silicon valley is good
I wouldn't bother much after that
Mike Judge doesn't know how to finish a show
Or movie
@hushed basalt yeah wtf, I hear a noise when scrolling on my old laptop too
It means you're being tapped by the NSA
Shit
It means NSA is taking a break. They are always in monitor mode.
soon to be quarantined mode 😛
Mike Judge doesn't know how to finish a show
Deja Poo
everyone here stock up on water, paper towels and toilet paper yet?
While True:
citizen.monitor()
Not worried about toilet paper as long there is water 😊
I mean technically we did buy TP and stuff, but not more than normal
well people in commiefornia have a long history of total dependence lol
Saw the videos on YouTube on Costco in LA. Crazy. They behave as if it is the end of the world.
out here the country boys will survive 😄
if it all goes sideways, wait for about a week, then you'll be able to drive into LA and have all the supplies you need lol.
I do actually have enough for my fiancee and I to chill here for a couple weeks or so if needed. Doesn't change the fact that the media are way overplaying this
It is all the media’s fault. They keep showing on TV on what to stock and prepare for worst case
A lot of this COVID-19 stuff is FUD
Get a portable bidet then you can reduce your toilet paper consumption by like 95%
I also refuse to say "the coronavirus" because that's a generic term for a type of virus lol
It's not THE coronavirus
Novel coronavirus 2019 :D
It is the 2019 version of corona.
media loves anything involving death, it keeps them relavant
its spreading like the Simian Flu
Yup. Back the days, we had news once in the morning and once in the evening. But now we have 24hr news. They need to make up shit to say all day 24x7
yep, pretty crappy people.
Feel sorry for those folks on cruise.
yea cant imagine being stuck on a cruise like that for weeks
especialy if ur stuck in that tiny ass room
I hope they serve alcohol and food 🤣
i think when the ship is locked down like that they start to ration shit so its no longer plentiful
I won't go a cruise, for many reasons, one of which is you end up in international waters where if anything happens the cruiseline can just claim no responsibility.
I'm sure they are bringing in supplies.
Heard they are reloading food for the folks.
yea but its not gonna be all you can eat like it normally is on a cruise lol
True!!! I’ve seen cruise food! Crazy varieties and amounts
you can't keep them and just say oh well starve to death
you may as well just sink the boat
I gained 5lb in 5 day cruise a few years ago.
@rain swift theres a difference between heres ur lunch/dinner/breakfast compared to heres the menu order anything you like and in any amount you like 😛
It is actually cheaper for older people to go on a cruise than staying in a nursing home. That’s why you see so many old people in cruises
Just get a slurry of chicken nugget puree and feed it into the ships freshwater tanks
mmmm nugs.
last time i went on a cruise i ended up ordering one of each dessert and multiple appetizers lol
Harmony of the Seas is a crazy big ship.
didnt evne bother with the buffet just went to the restaurants they have
better quality food too
All@it takes is one corona positive locally. Everything starts to change quickly.
It is amusing that the dooms day prepper videos are showing up more on YouTube these days.
anyone hear anything from quad?
Nope

21 deaths in USA now. 500+ confirmed. 😮
there is no escaping it
odss of being that 20% who don't get it by the end of this year is remote. unless you live in the middle of nowhere
I suspect my government is sitting on stats
But it's incredibly important to slow it down
Many countries are hiding or lowering the numbers to keep the economy going.
I hope not lol
Just ordered max7219 led display. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07T639GZF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_QhzzEb2WV7TD6
any thoughts on grabbing where IFTTT gets the information from for one of its triggers? For instance, I want to trigger an automation when ComEd announces a peak time savings event, and there's an IFTTT trigger for this, but I don't want to use IFTTT
Obviously IFTTT must be made aware of these events somehow but I can't find anything in ComEd doesn't have an API that shows it
i actually emailed ComEd about it because they have an API for their hourly pricing program
I use IFTTT a lot.
i don't want to set a base url in my config, otherwise for this case i might consider it
but it made me think... the information has to come from somewhere, whether IFTTT is polling the service or is pushed some information
I don’t expose my HA to internet either. So the base url won’t work for me. It is only my HA making webhook call to ifttt than the other way around.
well... mine's exposed, but i'm using NGINX
they don't
they have an API for hourly pricing, not peak time savings
or if they do for peak time savings, i can't find it
i actually emailed ComEd about it because they have an API for their hourly pricing program
I understood as they have an api.
I see. Not for peak time 😊
yeah
which... i almost wonder if they'd consider making one for PTS because it's much simpler than hourly pricing
and there are only events like... 5 times a year lol
so this is me being... very particular and itching to automate turning my thermostat off during one of these events lol
lol
Check github. I’m sure someone looked into it already
lol. I always check github before o start doing anything.
It's possible the webhook is on the ComEd side too
So they are sending it to ifttt
that's what i'm thinking
Can you hack the mainframe
i'd imagine it's a "push to IFTTT" situation, not an "IFTTT polling ComEd" situation
could try
Just steal their private keys and reroute their dns so you get their webhooks
Damn day light saving time. I got to go to bed an hour early.
Body doesn’t adjust to the clock. I am a late night guy. Hate to go to bed early
lol
GUYS THIS IS IMPORTANT I NEED HELP
you had clocks that manually needed changed? what is this? 1990's?
uhhh stove, microwave, coffeemaker...
In case the intro text is unreadable it says :
"If there was no insanity,
It would be necessary to create it.
-Catbag"
The mod can be found at :
http://madgangster.wordpress.com/
or
http://www.moddb.com/mods/malkavian-mod
Its made by me and syp...
regular analog clocks
blasphemy
Yes. We have many of them. One is even painful to adjust as it is way up, and need ladder.
literally anything not internet connected
everything in the house runs off ntp
impressive
even my wrist watch
Too bad if the appliance doesn't update their DST tables
I am going to build my own clock. Hence the leda I ordered. I found a neat github repo that has all the code. I just have to flash the code.
Yealink phones on 3CX had their tables like six years out of date
Would always be an hour ahead in summer
Unless they are smart appliances, they won’t automatically adjust clocks.
why does the kitchen have so many clocks anyways lol
No what sort of clock do you want to build
i feel like pretty much every appliance has a clock
Ah 🙂
could easily have 6+ clocks in a a single room
i have 4 within a 6 sq ft area lol
lol
One of these led matrix and output real-time time https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07T639GZF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_QhzzEb2WV7TD6
Like a diy clock, that automatically adjusts to DST and you can also use to display information from HA.
oooo
guys i'm gonna miss saying FORBIDDEN TOPIC
Like this.
24hr clock 🤢
There are still forbidden topics
NEVA
You can even have a text that scrolls
24 hour clock makes more sense IMO
this is the lounge, anything gooeesss.
how so?
I'm partial to 12hour clocks but 24 hour time for logistics
Doesn’t have to be 24 hr. You can display whatever you want.
So I want my clock on my phone/wall to display 7pm
well, for one, there are 24 hours in a day
But if I want to schedule people I would say 1900
24hour clock, great for IT stuff, not as human readable.
Yup
Europeans are used to it
@scenic radish really? 🤏
good for them
But they're immaterial
It hurts to do the math every time you look at the clock.
At least we have a temperature scale that makes sense
boooooom.
exactly.
Fahrenheit is higher resolution though, so to speak
Yeah but we're not afraid of decimals
but yeah... i wish we used the metric system for more than just the sciences
"0.5 ooohh"
Stop it Patrick you're scaring him
You have to use what your locale uses
i know than one ounce is about 30 mL though
that's how I felt when I took mandarin lol
Anyone who come to USA from Europe for the first time, they will have a lot of surprises. SO many things are done opposite here
I dunno we're kind of pretty diverse now and it just gets more and more so lol
I had someone use cm's to explain how long thier wall was the other day
threw me off a bit lol
be like, this is america boy, I wanna hear it in fractions.
0.05 is bigger than 0.002. you can see it right away
fractions can be confusing at first
except verizon
My 6mm spanner is smaller than my 7mm spanner
Fractions are kinda cool once you get a hang of it.
It's just an extra layer of brain strain
Decimals are cool too. Just divide everything by 1000 to go down to the next scale
A little bit of brain exercise every day Keeps you younger.
Milli, micro, nano, pico
Shouldn't computer currency always use cents
computers don't use money, duh
Computers are commies
MY DAD'S NOT A PHONE! DUH
I’ve been to many countries, gotta say that only in America you will find actual currency (like pennies) on the ground and no one cares to pick them up.
I do too. It just drives me nuts when I see the coins on the ground
@scenic radish layers upon layers of herpes dosen't actually create a barrier against other vvirus fyi
Most people in the USA, when they drop a coin, they can’t pick up 😆
They have to be flexible enough to reach the ground.
our society is kind of sad lol
They should at least make the coins attract to magnets 😛
There's this terrible show called The Last Ship
lol
Where a virus and breakdown of society wipes out 90% of the population or something.
But in the later seasons all the random civilians look like typical Americans
Oh boy!
friend telling me east coast up by NY people are getting stupid. nothing has bottled water in stock and people are wearing dry wall respirators around as they shop lol
the gas stations have 20-40 min lines lol
Yeah water isn't going to be affected by the virus
I'd just be worried about natural disasters during the peak
Basically if you live in an area where water supply has been seriously interrupted in 20 years I'd consider stockpiling
Yep
But that's never happened here in my life
your almost better off going out and catching it and just getting that part over with lol
Nope
natural selection
everyone should just quarantine themselves at home for 2 weeks...unfortunately u keep having people going out and traveling
let the dummies kill each other
A) you don't know if it will mutate and you'll get it again
yea its natures way of cleansing right?
I shall emerge a week later armed to the teeth to pick up their supplies while stepping over their corpses.
B) have to reduce that r factor as much as possible
gotta leave the house at some point
@forest edge thats what instacart is for 😛
hell considering it remains alive on surafces up to 10 days you can get it from gettting the mail lol
You don’t have to touch it though
Let it remain for 30 days. As long as you don’t touch it, you are fine
oh lol
lol here i am with all my amazon orders coming tomrorow
overstuffed mailbox lol
went crazy on a slickdeal sale last night...$6/kg of filament
My xiaomi sensors are coming from China next week from GeatBest.
yup, your days are numbered
I will write in my will to transfer my mod access to @forest edge if something happens to me. 😛
heck no, green name in this discord is a PM death sentence i'm sure lmao
anyone else see people stocking up on Lysol?
The package has been in California for the past 10 days. Since the virus only stays alive for 10 days on surface, it is the CA people that need to worry about 😆
we went to Costco, no Lysol or wipes
Costco made it on to the news over that lol
Not even bleach. Not a single case of corona identified in Ohio. We are already in panic mode here
Can’t see what the hell we do if this becomes real. Crazy!
Zombie apocalypse for sure!
besides being out of shape and careless our society is also stupid and do stupid crazy things during a panic
Yep!!!
Work has forbidden me from going to work for at least 3 weeks due to Covid-19. Work from home? Sure!
https://youtu.be/1AGW3bbcb3Y
That’s the doctors hand washing technique that they teach all the medical staff.
@drowsy kelp you still get paid?
Yep
No worries then. There is nothing that I cannot do by working from home. Everything is technologically possible.
They have most of my entire staff working from home too. They are all server hardware technicians. Hard to fix equipment from home. Oh well, they aren't complaining about being home while getting paid.
But yet, we are required to be in person - because that’s how most companies operated for far too long.
Another reason to move everything to cloud. Then you can work from home 😝
Behind every cloud is a bunch of servers my team gets to fix.
Cloud is nothing but someone else’s computer. Someone is managing it. As long as it is not me, I’m good!
Happy to see other people who see the cloud for what it is.
rather have covid-19 than the cloud now that you mention it lol
lol
The same idgits buying everything up will last 3 days if everything goes to hell so, I'm not too worried, wait a week, step outside, good to go.
7 days minimum. the average use case of bread and milk is a solid week
that's when people havve to leave
I work in emergency medical services as a volunteer gig. I'm surprised I haven't gotten much from my patients over the past 13 years. Watch, I will be the one guy who gets a covid patient and become a patient myself.
@drowsy kelp I admire what the medical staff have to go through in these situations! They are like heroes- much like firefighters and army personnel.
"Cloud is someone elses computer" is the same as saying "powerpoints are someone elses generator"
Nothing you have to worry about :D
@hushed basalt a toddler does that good too, even if you don't want it
I thought everyone was making fun of aussies for doing that
Now everyone is doing it
Haven't noticed anything in Norway
@clear ferry cause half your pop already has it before the other half had any chance to react to it
norwats were up to their elbows in coronavirus before one could even ask what it was lol
Nortwats
I like how there are two cases on the Faroe Islands lol
yet alaska dosen't have a single case
Nobody wants to go to Alaska
I kind of do.. now
Faroe Islands is atleast popular with tourists
at least Operation Infect Norway went without a hitch
@tidal bronze so how's Singapore?
Does anyone here use snap on ubuntu?
@hushed basalt Heard its happening in america, seen it in the UK
people buy the brand stuff and then the own brand stuff
Time for one of these?
magic toilet seat FTW
I want one for each toilet
Have to get an electrician to put power outlets in bathrooms though which could be a massive job
@hushed basalt Does Austrilia have the usual Red Top Tabloids which can be repurposed?
What?
Ah the murdoch press
Funnily enough people used to use stuff like that for toilet paper before what we know as toilet paper was made
I think our murdoch rubbish is more integrated into the mainstream papers though
I did see something about a newpaper somewhere publishing issues with extra blank pages to be used as toilet paper?
YES, WE ACTUALLY DID PRINT IT #toiletpapercrisis https://t.co/jusP50ojYu

6287
Seems the covid intergration has broken
@hushed basalt you can get a bidet converter for cheap on amazon that doesn't require power. Slips under your current toilet seat. I got one for like $27 USD. It uses the cold water line. I thought it would be too cold. It's actually fine. Wakes you up a little in the dead of winter though. They make one that attaches to the hot and cold water line (if close to a sink). You will still have to wait for the water to warm up for it to get warm.
@pure vine #integrations-archived
that covid site gets hammered constantly. suprised it's even still up lol
The Russian numbers seem very low....
Cause in mother Russia Covid-19 does not infect you, you infect Covid-19.
I have total trust in the numbers reported in Russia and Turkey among a few others
Just made this comment on annother server
This "containment phase" doesn't feel very containy
Kinda applies to linux containers sometimes
@hushed basalt Toilet paper sorted!
Our government is basically telling people business as usual everything is fine
@shy comet All international travel for work has been cancelled. 15k+ employees worldwide and we're not the biggest to do it.
yea im supposed to travel end of the month...didnt buy tix yet....honestly dont feel comfortable being at an airport right n ow lol
people cant be trusted to stay at home and quarantine themselves
they are willingly ignoring what they are told and acting like they are ok lol
a lot of european airlines are flying empty apparently
and they have to due to how they do flights
yea if they dont fly they will lose their slot
I'm flying tomorrow 
First class for everyone
Seems SXSW's insurance won't cover the cancelation... https://www.frankenpost.de/deutschlandwelt/netzwelt/art662029,7168966
@clear ferry nice knowing ya
Pfff
Got the max7219!
I'm sorry?
That will be my new led clock ⏰😊
Looks super solid. Surprised with the quality. It looked cheap in the pictures I’ve seen
@forest edge @clear ferry is a bit like the bad weather in that you can't get rid of him!
@last plaza are you gonna use WLED with that? or something else?
@shy comet I’m going to use https://github.com/skalavala/clock-message-board
Using esp8266
I have so many clocks around me at any given time, I can't imagine what I would do with that except flex
oh nice
They are all green, more colors available. I saw something on AliExpress with individually addressable leds. Yes, You can use it for notifications.
Wanted to try one first. If it comes out good, I can order more. Best part is you can connect them in serial, make it a long led display - like the ones you see on billboards.
yea an rgb one would be cool, could have it flash solid colors as a notification in addition to text if wanted ect
Yes. They have them.
Anyone used the SHPI?
Never heard of it
Ah! It is a touch screen on top of RPi.
a Smart home Pi
this smells like ads
nah I have no affiliation with them
I think "ads on the screen" is what was meant
its reasonable. Pi = 15~
Screen 15~
Powersupply 10
Speaker 10?
SD 10?
Yeh, i already wrote that lol
😄
I'm hoping it will work with the Yio remote software
That thing looks sleek
but ohhh so expensive 😄
People fighting over ‘rotten’ food on coronavirus-stricken Grand Princess cruise!
Didn’t expect anything less!
everyone needs to quarantine themselves for a month so we can get rid of this
its crazy how many people say "fuck it" and travel when they have it
well most don't know they have it
thats the problem
on one hand everyone is saying not to panic with every cough and on the other they don't and go to walmart lol
not to mention the whole kid aspect
like are they carriers or what lkol
cause kids seem to not get any symptoms
Kids are conductors of virus as they like to touch everything they see in general 😊
there have been cases of people ignoring quarantine orders...thats what im most cautious of
one guy in japan wantd to "spread it"
i get that things are blown out of proportion but when you have people like that...is it worth risking it?
getting quarantined on vacation or a trip is horrible
Especially when you are on international waters!
yea thats crazy
Norwegian airlines keeps spamming my email with rather cheap flights 🤔
Go visit atx
by this time next week atx will be swimming in the infected
he's surrounded on all sides
the real question is anyone going to learn from this? I watched this a bit ago https://youtu.be/6Af6b_wyiwI and can't help but think if this was more dangerous than it is we'd all be pretty screwed lol
In 2014, the world avoided a horrific global outbreak of Ebola, thanks to thousands of selfless health workers — plus, frankly, thanks to some very good luck. In hindsight, we know what we should have done better. So, now's the time, Bill Gates suggests, to put all our good id...
god, my HA instance is getting me nuts. It broke (went unresponsive). If i recover last snapshot on another clean install, it hungs up too!
It's ridding me insane...
@forest edge gates has another video on Netflix on pandemic. That was good too!
you would think we would have something more than what we actually have in place by now. even if it wasn't some movie type thing he describes anything that would severely slow or even prevent of the spread would be nice lol
hell country lockdowns are completely doable and with tech being as it is, it's not like we would just backrupt or die or something if people couldn't leave or arrive for a few lol
hi all… my project ( Home Assistant HUB LAN independent ) keep on and i have some good and bad news… First the bad… the HASSIO OS, want run on my DIY 🙂 router. The boot seems to be ok… indeed we do not have the message "Insert boot disk" :), ( UEFI implements some security options ) and the partitions… i don't know…. for now…
The good… Ubuntu desktop end this Industrial PC ( WiFi Master mode work )
mine is based on Intel I5 8250U can finally be used as WiFi Router ! The next step is test Ubuntu Server ( Home Assistant ad the Supervisor ) installed by using the installation script ) , on a different ( better ) machine….

guys which one of the 8 dev threads should my issue with integrating a second Rainbird controller into HA go? Each one says not for support, but the issue is that HA does not support 2 Rainbird Controllers at the same time.
Well, you'd open a feature request on the forum
Unless you're going to be developing that support...
so I am not asking for a new feature, the integration instruction state how to add two controllers to HA. Unfortunately that guide appears to be widely inaccurate or something has changed since it was initially written.
hope that clarification helped
If following the docs doesn't work, open an issue
Ooof
