Anyone ever come across a PSU with multiple 12V out? Something like https://www.t-rex-effects.com/fueltank-junior with 12V instead?
2812 is the budget option but it sucks if you want white light at all
Can they run directly of an ESP chip, or do you need a PSU?
sure, was thinking of the strips, are the ESP powerfull enough to provide the required amount of power on it's own?
the regulator on it no but it has output pins directly connected to the input so if you can simply power the esp from the same 5-12V power supply as the strip
so if I use the vin pin that maps directly to the source it "should" be "fine" then 😄
yes. However the VIN pin on a lolin nodemcu board is not directly connected to the usb power but some other pin is 😛
wtf... okey then, I'll just split the source then xD
Most boards the vin will work but lolin is an exception for some reason. There was a pin I could use though that I found with a quick google search
it's worked just fine for me connected that way
I'm not sure what I have, probably the cheapest on Ali I could find 😛
says in the back if it's lolin
https://arduino.stackexchange.com/a/56785 VV pin is the right one on lolin if connected via usb
The very first video I ever posted was about putting multicolored LEDs on my house so we could have all kinds of different colors and different effects for every holiday. They’ve been working great for over 2 years. If you watched that old video you’ve seen how it might be d...
this is what i watched for the hardware
It's a good video but keep in mind that it's for holiday lights and other accent lights. I use led strips as "proper" lighting as well and then you'll need one or two white leds as well
Some of you using puppet or puppet enterprise?

😄
That would be #frontend-archived @rough sonnet
Damn, i was right, the first time 😄 I'll remove it here, and post it in "frontend". Thanks!
No worries - thanks 👍
Assuming the accuracy of the tests are high 😛
Probably as accurate as most other countries 
Question: ~8ball What're the odds?
Answer: Most Likely
Looking good then 🤣

So I have to commission 4 pump stations and an oil refinery on Monday and I spent all day instead adding automations to my house.

@rare condor more fun than what i did yesterday ..... i blocked a driveway for 16 hours
@clear ferry I thought that was the point of this place 😉
@dull chasm that's fun did you point and laugh at the person you were blocking?
🤣
i got denied my new service weapon request .... I need 1300 @clear ferry you got it laying around
Closest thing I have to a weapon is my chainsaw
thats a belguim gun thou
and it's got ridiculously expensive ammo
and the recoil is funny
and the magazines are a pain in the ass to load
nah i used in combat ... ammo is expensive but recoil is light and easy to load but i have loaded hundreds of types of guns so maybe a little more experinced? @last dirge
p90?
Carter and O'Neill compare a staff weapon with the P90.
Stargate SG-1: S05E18. The Warrior.
no, this one
yea she is awesome ...
I think the guy said it cost him 8 grand
yea why most go with the 90 much cheaper ... i like HK bullpubs much cheaper
Why is the 32bit recommended over the 64bit? What's the advantage/disadvantage?
thanks!
test test... when this works I have internet but cant reach my router??..
stop doing this?
Good news, you're firewalled off from your router
then tell me what it is
I only configuring a virsh network on my HA server 🤔
How the holy F
huhh... I would love to get some router logs - the virsh network on a diffrent vlan brought down the interface?
Sounds like a basic misunderstanding of basic networking fundamentals

And poor communication of the actual issue
Muuuuurica out of tp?
😱
no shit 😄
But I cant say what I did wrong. It worked well for 10 minutes and I dont think that I created a loop
hello everyone, before i begin this project about multiroom audio, has any of you tried Balena before?
https://www.balena.io/blog/turn-your-old-speakers-or-hi-fi-into-bluetooth-receivers-using-only-a-raspberry-pi/
i meant, there is no integration in HA for Balena. But perhaps it is shown as media_player entity anyway.. you confirm?
@tawny pebble @tidal bronze has a lot of multiroom I think
@last plaza https://www.costco.com/toilets-washlets.html
Juri it depends on what you're going to use to output to that device. It looks to support bluetooth, airplay and spotify connect. I would think all of those were supported by HASS?
hai peeeepppppooooles
@orchid rose i was looking at denon systems (heos) and similar multiroom audio. My goal is to use TTS from HA for notification around the apartment (the same i'm currently doing with the amazon echo using the Alexa Media) and Spotify for listening to music.
I have tried raspotify, works great (except for my gf phone, there it is not seen, don't know why) but being it not a media_player, HA can not see it
you want to get it cheap right
do you have a Spotify Premium account?
I've even followed to guide written by @last plaza in his Git, about mopidy and snapcast. Won't work and I don't know how. The snapclient doesn't connect to the snapserver
Yes, i own the family account
There's an integration for Spotify that should just work for what you want I think but I haven't used it myself
I don't know how it lists the different speakers or if it supports that though
How's everyone doing?
bored and stuck at home like every other day 😛
the problem is my speaker are the amazon echo. so damn close source. only alexa media can talk to them. so yes, the integrations for spotify (i tried a few of them) works because there's my account connected. But i wish my gf is able to use her spotify (premium) to connect to these echo and she can't. because amazon stuff.. sooo i'd like to "build" media_players. simple wifi speakers
there is no "simple wifi speaker" it always will go through one standard or another
anybody munching chips and gummy bears here?
bluetooth is somewhat a standard but I'd prefer wifi
that's the issue. But some time ago i tried installing Kodi on a raspberry and HA saw it as media player and i redirect the TTS of google translate to media_player.kodi.
it worked so damn great for testing. i'd like to achieve the same feelings by having a few wifi speakers that just "connect"
Sonos then 😉
or Denon :3
Then just pick one of the many listed here and see if it supports what you need: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/#media-player
I like my Chromecast stuff
@orchid rose Musiccast by yamaha then!!
my Yamaha doesn't even have network connectivity 😛
upgrade
already did. The new one is only a few years old so it has a network port (no wifi)
doesnt need wifi ....mine is not on wifi
I'm not sure if it supports playback or anything. Would be a pain to sync everything with chromecast anyway so just easier to plug a chromecast to it and be done with it
@tawny pebble you can do 2 ways. CC or Alexa to multi-zone AVR
or You can use multi CC or Alexa groups
That would be the easiest
@tidal bronze you havent noticed a drop in audio quality in chromecast?
the issue is not the multiroom itself, it works already with alexa. The thing is it works under my spotify account, because alexa is connected to my spotify account. Therefore when my gf open her spotify, she has no devices where to cast the music.
With chromecast i will probably fix, but i need speakers for that. But thing is i don't have a chromecast for testing but i have a raspberry.
@dull chasm hmm not really.
sync on musiccast is awesome ....but more money
@tawny pebble oh use spotcast
So, what I did, i creating another Spotify account (i own the family, got some more slots left) and connect this other account to alexa's spotify.
byut that works only in the tablet which i use for lovelace HA :/ because i connected this tablet to this account. But this makes my account and her account not able to see alexa echoes for music. damn what a story
never heard spotcast, i'll have a look
That will fix your issues of not seeing the devices 😀
@tidal bronze i am surprised you didnt get the musiccast amps or preamps and be done with it
Only thing is that you will need to have a collection of playlist URI @tawny pebble
@dull chasm does not work for me
oh spotcast, o ki know it. used it. Tipped the dev because he did a good job. uninstalled it because not properly working
why would there be a drop in audio quality with Chromecast?
@tawny pebble it works great.
@tidal bronze they sync perfectly and everthing in one place ....what did not work
@tidal bronze when i was clicking the playlist from lovelace, it was not always starting the echoes. but it's a problem with amazon echo. they go into a kind of standby. also the HA media player I found to have issue in waking them up
reason why i want to extirpate the echo dot around the apartment
I have about 11 chromecasts, 4 zones, 2 avr and intercom system. My TTS has 2 classes critical and non essential. Depending on what's being played on what zone they change source from avr to CC only. I don't want to hear any TTS in the area I am listening to music or TV. So TTS is task based and area based. Can't do that if I am using AVR musicast only. @dull chasm
@tawny pebble I am sorry don't use anything alexa so don't know anything about those. I removed them tears ago.
well damn @tidal bronze but for multiroom control by itself ..... YAMAHA muscicast rocks
if i am listening to music screw the rest ....
@tidal bronze you did a good job in removing them. the only reason i still use it is i can call it by "computer" as wake word. Just like in the Batman Lego movie
Just for music not music + tts @dull chasm
agree
It ties you to one brand though which I generally dislike. I just wish there was a more open standard out there
I dont get to use what i have very often but when i do ....screw tts .....amps over power it anyway
Well if it's critical TTS mine will cut all AVRs and run TTS like water leak smoke etc
@orchid rose yea but when main avr cost 2k ....secondry amp 700 and bedroom amp 1k .....i am all in
I just got my bedroom amp, it cost me 20€ 🙂
I connected it to a 20€ chromecast audio and I'm pretty happy with the setup
damn ......totally diff kinda setup ....but @tidal bronze has 10x money invested than me
@dull chasm as a 3rd option I have a CC audio routed through the intercom system, just in case room CCs are busy and a critical TTS needs to be played 😉
that i can go with .....but screw it messing with main amps
maybe muting avr's or amps but no control
I used to do CCA to both my aventage units but lately I am happy with CC groups and the intercom system. Just cut the amps for critical TTS and not play TTS in AVR active zones.
that is what i would do if i had crictal annoucments or maybe led based ....but not screw with main audio .....i have worked my ass off to have a decent system
Sometimes I hate TTS I've cut down about 70% of the announcements.
yep .... I am way below your cost but i got 8k in main system ....screw a door has opened interrupting
If my dogs are not crazy I can cut down 99% of TTS 🤣
talk to dogs and tell them to chill
I am 10 years too late for that 🙂
@tidal bronze i hear you on that
i started substituting notification sounds with TTS to stop the dogs from going nuts
have a hug and kiss session and rub belly and talk
turned off all ring notifications and the house just announces if it detects motion
its so darn annoying especially when you have a sleeping baby and your GSD starts to go nuts
@shy comet hello nancy
My issues with garage doors and side gates etc
@dull chasm nancy?
@shy comet i am dissappointed
The oldest one knows how to break the IR safety beams
for a anti trump guy
If I close the garage and just leave he will come and break the beam and will open it. 😉 @shy comet
@shy comet she has a empty seat for ya
she can keep it
no trump no nancy .....where are you .... beach boys?
haha honestly lately im kinda like fuck em all.
I am with
must be cali ...liberal thing that i dont understand
personally im more in the boat that we dont get to pick our president
is it just me or is @tidal bronze link just spinning
@shy comet
special pandemic edition
you get to see how crazy we are in LA....Pomona aint far from me 😛
@tidal bronze i saw that and that was my wifes "i told you so" moment lol
shes been wearing a mask for weeks now
Me too
i will say this ya'all are Special to say the least
Finally doing what's right
@tidal bronze are you cleaning your shoes and all that before entering the house?
Got a steamer. I steam everything. All clothes go in the washer as soon we come home
yea same
No shoes in the house anyway.
i havent left the house in weeks ive been wearing nothing but PJs lol
Lucky bastard
Man the pay check protection plan is nuts. Banks can't handle the requests.
lol that's my everyday. but now the wife and baby are home
@wet pilot same lol except wife started to stay at home in jan so i had some prep time 😛
@tidal bronze hell yea, im due for another order lol
what you getting?
we normally do steak on a friday night but wife requested we do cheesy potatoes instead
no luck with costco instacart 😦
We do home made pizza and a movie every Friday
what is on an alaska home made pizza? seal? lol
yea man costco instacart hasnt been available to order for a while now
My wife has been studying from home for 4 years
Nothing new here

@forest edge seal and whale is delicious btw
you would be eating seal and whale chunks lol
thats because your a pirate
dropped to 30 degrees and started raining here last night. accidently left my window open and now i'm freezing lol
rolled a 2 on observation 😛
tell me about it. was half expecting to see ice forming on my monitor
Norwegians are such a backwards people
inb4 @clear ferry 🤢
all i think of handmaids tale and their face covering
Am I right in my thinking that if I am running multiple things on the same ports that installing and running Nginx provides an application to direct things where they need to be?
You can't run multiple things on the same port
Unless they are on different computers
Guys my HASS install just dissapeared from my ubuntu VM
like its gone
how could that even happen
disk failure
They are on different computers
you can have an nginx reverse proxy to do stuff if you want
Norway is pretty stable, but we are expecting it to last out 2020 now 
how could portainer still be running on that VM then?
different part of the disk
I had a power failure last night but that shouldnt have just removed the container
So how do I stop that from happening in the future?
The container is probably just turned off
I just checked its not there at all
So yea, multiple https servers on different IPs....Nginx reverse proxy would handle it correct
Just recreate it then, and link it to the persistent storage you are of course using
@green inlet Yes
even better, leave all the other stuff as http and let the proxy handle the cert termination
Yeah, that is what I do
Ok thanks
So is this a good start?
I have one nginx container running in docker and another which gets certs from LetsEncrypt and then if I want something to be available I just have to create it in a container with specific env variables and those 2 containers handle the certs and the routing
i use that container
Me too
Ok. Docker is 🤯. Where do I start
In the right end
That’s what she said

I prefer the backend though
A good place to start is by installing docker...
Yea....not even a clue how to do that. I think I am on the right track though
But that github seems to be the shinizzle
the container is pretty slick
So I will take the time and figure it out.
what does ```
modmanager is enabled WARNING
so i have that container acting as my ingress and most of my other containers have no ports exposed outside the docker network
That is your problem. You need to disable it
what does it do?
well then I dont want it lol
So all the duckdns URLs point to nqix container
Correct
It sent my network into a spin till I figured it out.
yep, 443 from the outside goes to that nginx container. nginx will proxy to all the other containers on all their weird ports on just http
Watching JoJo rabbit now, looking good so far 
Or VEnv correct. Don’t need all of them to be in containers
yeah, doesn't actually matter. But if you use HA in a venv, it would be worth migrating up to docker based if you want to start using docker for that LE container
or, you can just install nginx on bare metal and use the LE certbot to handle the certs
I don’t really understand certs. I get it when it comes to ssh but duckdns doesn’t have my key, or maybe it does and I just don’t know it
DuckDNS doesn't, but whatever software you're using for LetsEncrypt does 😉
So duckdns just goes to the url name under certbot and forwards from there?
duckdns is like a phonebook so humans can remember words instead of numbers
Yea, I understand dns forwarders.
Just the certs I can’t wrap my brain around
They're entirely separate
But certbot has a folder named after duckdns url
It's like PB+J for a sandwich - that's two unrelated things in it
Right, but that's convenience
The folder could be called banana
No sane software would do that though 😛
The certificate is for your DuckDNS hostname
You sure about that ?
No 😛
So in ssh, there is a key and a key.pub. Same concept in certs?
So when someone is forwarded by duckdns. It hits my router and is forwarded to the HAss install which knows where the key is? Once it knows the key it encrypts the communication?
Ok, so...
Sorry. Like I said 🤯
DuckDNS turns your DNS name into an IP (DNS)
Your computer then connects to that IP - DuckDNS isn't involved in the actual connection
Aka, you look up the address in the address book, and then go there yourself
Does that make sense?
Yes
Now, SSL is "slightly" more complicated, but ...
You connect to the server and start a little chat. As part of that, the server hands over the certificate
You check that certificate is valid for the address you used
Hands it over to who?
If it is, you're happy and you start encrypting messages using it
To you (the browser)
You now have the server's public key (certificate)
When you encrypt something with that, only the server can decrypt (with the private key)
But that’s my point. Anyone who get there gets the key right. Like leaving it under the front porch mat
Yes, but no
Everybody can encrypt a message for the server
Nobody but the server can decrypt it
However, SSL solves this by "magic"
At this point, you and the server generate some session keys that are used for this session, all in this currently encrypted session
Then you use those for the actual communication
How does public-key cryptography work? What is a private key and a public key? Why is asymmetric encryption different from symmetric encryption? I'll explain all of these in plain English!

Reality is much more complicated at this point
TLS 1.3 and Diffie-Hellman add more complexity
Maybe I am looking at it like a password. It isn’t a password to open the door. It merely encrypts traffic going in and out ?
Ok. I will read links. Thanks.
I have the advantage of living through the evolution of a lot of this, which helps
I have a hard time understanding things that aren’t visual. When I get a moment I will study up on links. Thank you.
No worries, happy to chat more about it any time
Yes, I was there when Zeus started tossing the bolts around 😉
With age comes wisdom. Like a fine wine

Time to run some way point missons. Get the neighbors all pissed.
You need to mount a paintball gun on that
Asymmetric encryption was and partly still is a really confusing concept for me. Mostly the relationship between the key pair is confusing. I've pretty much given up on trying to perfectly understand it
Like battery charge and discharge curves. I gave up trying to figure those out.
I need exact science to compute
I've also read that quantum computing could cause problems for these types of encryptions but as I don't really understand how they work in the first place, it is kinda hard to follow how that would be a problem
Yeah... in 20 years or so.
I get the general gist of it, but I personally like knowing how things work and it's sometimes frustrating when I don't get it 🙂
Quantum == You have the answers to the questions you didn't know you had. You just don't know what the question was yet.
iirc the biggest quantum computer they have made so far was an 8 qbit and they would need a 2048 qbit to make it work right iirc
I actually just watched a computerphile video on that recenly...
What do the various levels of encryption mean, and why use one over another? Dr Mike Pound takes us through the cryptic world of encryption levels.

I'm late to the game, but i love the flux integration.
Wait until you try https://github.com/claytonjn/hass-circadian_lighting/ 😉
I was wondering, what the main difference is
It's what Flux wants to be when it grows up
😉
Significantly more controllable for a start
an astronaut?
That or a superhero
I found that while Flux worked, it wasn't as slick as Circadian
hmmm. Will give it a try.
Flux was shite last I used it
Been using circadian lighting for over a year
I do use f.lux on my machines though
the science behind it is quite interesting
people
Hey, it works...
I've had sleeping issues for 30 years, I can say circadian lighting on all my lights have improved my life
do you use in the bedroom, or just elsewhere to "come down" in evening?
Anywhere I have CCT lights
It really does make a difference
Side note - I need more CCT lights
you know opening the shades on windows is cheaper than circadian lighting
@forest edge have tried sending an email to open the shades ?
@tidal bronze nevver heard of smmqtt?
Enlighten me

so russia is obviously not reporting their number accurately and we know north korea is lying about having 0 infection lol
north korea is not lying 15 seconds after a infection they have no infection 😉
lol

But we know where the real shit is going to go down the next weeks 
yea the south pole. poor penguins.. wonder how they are preparing for testing
Have you guys used the lovelace webpage card?
I use the oilder iframe card. not sure if it's a reboot of that or not
like i said, not sure if the webpage card is a reboot of that cause the iframe one went poof
Oh its not supported anymore?
well it still works, type: iframe
no
@bitter zinc the webpage card is the iframe card. lol https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/iframe/
just got renamed
Oh
So when I put in a webpage it doesnt work though
Is there a way to make one of the views just go to a webpage?

https://www.thewrap.com/black-widow-moves-to-november-as-other-mcu-films-shift-back-to-2021-2022/ entire marvel slate was pushed back.....they also lost a date in Nov 2021.....i imagine most of the movie industry will also see some impact in 2021 and 2022.....probably will see more low budget movies during that time
But low budget movies are so much better
they can be but when im at a theater i want to see and hear explosions etc....otherwise ill watch at home lol
JoJo rabbit, 14mill USD, and it's one of the better movies I've seen in a while
Better than any of the marvel movies
Missed that in the Cinema 😦 Was travelling at the time
it was a good movie i watched it at home though
i mainly watch marvel movies in cinema to avoid getting anything spoiled lol

over 2k comfirmed cases of covid and 19 deaths my states gov just now today thinks it's a good idea to issue a statewide stay at home order
Because he just yesterday learned people can be sick without knowing it
Not sure if he's lying or really that fucking stupid
pretty sure it's the second part
even with the order people will still go out thats the sad part
order will still stop most of people even though some will break it
older people tend to follow what thier goverment tells them
My county just pressed charges on a spa that was violating the order
Yup
maybe that's what this virus is. a thinning of the herd
Here it's mostly young and old people breaking the recommendations to stay home
Phnx, Pineville?
Yar
Was it like a happy ending spa?
Doesn't seem like it
Good for them
Multiple first responders are infected/quarantined. That’s when stuff starts to get real. We start losing the front line and it might be a crap shoot

Hi all - i have a question about the zwave integration. On startup it states openzwave 1.4 - that seems a bit old. Is this something wrong on my own machine or is HA just including that version?
lol religious nuts
thanks @shy comet - didn't see that channel
I'll take a look when I got time pdobrien3
@last plaza , now we need to wait 3-14 days to see if it worked
If it doesn't, we will repeat the same process again
lol
It's all making sense now
ew i'd rather smoke the covid than those parliaments lol
gonna fire up the hookah tomorrow night
😮
we just got Fumari Watermelon so gonna try that for the first time
ive been a fan of White Gummi Bear the most though lol
Once again no fair 🙄
its a flavor by Fumari....White Gummi Bear....they also have Red Gummi Bear but I find it to be very sweet
White Gummi Bear is like the perfect flavor since its very hookah like and has the flavor
rihgt amount of strong taste
@tidal bronze no hating. my aunt smokes those while having brunch too lol
@shy comet yet to try. Wife likes all kinds I keep going back to good old green apple. Lol
haha yea
After 19 years first anniversary in the US and at home. This is going to be an interesting weekend.

Hookah and steak it is
you throwing a corona party? lol
Better pick up the beer while you can. Production shut down today
Rona for 2 😂
@wet pilot got beer but we both don't drink beer. 😆 She's into tequila and I am a whiskey kinda guy. 😀
Lol. She drink 3x as me so end of the day it's too much fun.
Lol
just bought a 6 pack of corona earlier today lol
been awhile since i've had it so figured wtf lol
Lol.
Is my assumption right:
If you start using VLANs it means those networks are on different subnets, which means you need to use your router to communicate between them. Which means there will be a lot more layer 3 routing on your network where before it would have all been layer 2. So your router would be under a lot more load?
I wouldn't say lot. It's what routers do
The hosts will see less broadcast traffic fwiw
Even in a flat network hosts still use all layers
I don't think your home network would create enough routing traffic to matter resource wise.
NAT would consume more than all the rest so nothing to worry about. 😀
Yeah but lan traffic can be pretty heavy
What router?
evening fellas
my firewall is my router, netgate 3100, should handle anything I throw at it
A very cheap old one
It was like $20 flashed with tomato
It holds up pretty well. Considering I don't torrent or use VPN on router and my internet is 80/30.
But I'm not sure if it'd survive if I had say plex streaming 4k to my tv across vlans
@forest edge cinemas is just not a thing for most here, and me even less after I became a pirate in the mid 90s 
@hushed basalt pretty hard to tell without seeing traffic flow, but Plex traffic should be tcp I guess, and single stream, what is more likely to kill it is multi stream stuff, like, imagine trying to guide a bus, Vs guiding0 10 cars
Or 40 cats
And my axe
i'd have to double check

Tinkerer is away for 10h 21m 52s with a message :point_right: Where there is cake, there is hope. And there is always cake.

Oh wow. I’m sure I got it a while ago and it wasn’t included @hushed basalt
Trackballs are supreme
I've got the wireless logitech one that tilts
It's not bad. It's a thumb ball though.
It's heavy too. It's not a travel mouse
logitech
I've been using the Logitech ones for years, on the M570 now
the newer ones have the awesome scroll wheel
Yeah, and if you want to travel with it you can get some nice hard cases to protect it
Ordered the 570 
2 weeks delivery, but £20 cheaper than the ones who had it in stock
I wish Microsoft would start making these again
Yeah, the new ones aren't as good
They are shite
I've had two of them, and the wife just bought one, because there is only one really
The 4000
But frankly it doesn't compare
It's about A$125
I hate flat keys
That includes the mouse which is just a paperweight or skip bin ballast though
It's AUD220 here
Oofph
I wouldn't pay that. Especially since it's really just the keyboard and numberpad
The function keys are rubbish
And being a split it forces touch typing
Touch typing FTW 😉
But I like it.
Yes that is where the old natural keyboard was premium
I do wish it had a trackball in the middle though
It forced me to learn touch
Also if you break or lose the dongle you have to throw the whole thing away
I've been touch typing for almost as long as I've been using computers 🙂
I had something similae
@clever mortar I removed all the keys on my regular keyboard in 1996 and put them back random places to learn their placement 
I'm not a fan of tenkeys now though
Gotta get that mouse close
That is the drawback when you're navigating code with your cursor to peck in little brackets here or there
It's harder to one hand a split ergo
While I can type reasonably well lefthanded on a straight keyboard
All those years of playing PC games before voice chat :D
You type quick or you die
Hah
I have never had issues onehanding anything
Remember when I started in the company many years ago, I was 23 and the youngest by far, I was put to do notes on one of our first meetings and all my colleagues were like

They were typing like they all had arthritis and I typed so fast there was smoke rising from the keyboard
Yeah I've always been the fastest typer in the room
My daughters GP is pretty quick though too
My family GP is a 65yo Bosnian,he types like air to ground missiles
Lol
I feel sorry for GPs who had to move to paperless systems and can't type for shit
But they're probably the type who 40 years ago would have harrased people who can't write neat cursive
I use a MS Natural 4000 on my desktop. Started using it years ago after a bout with RSI
Yeah I've had 2x 4000s
Both broke with random keys stopped working
Bought my wife one two weeks ago, let's see how long it lives
@hushed basalt in Norway the gps could opt to receive journals on floppy until atleast 2019, so the norwegian gp organisation bought all floppies that were in Norwegian stocks around 2008
They might be able to opt for that still
The 4000 I'm using was bought in 2008, and it still going strong. Have a spare one which was bought when a local IT store was going out of business which hasn't even been unboxed 🙂
Yeah, mine lasted 4-5 years each
My first had the cable fall apart, and the wrist wrest disintegrate - about 4 to 5 years of usage too
This is EXACTLY the kind of lockdown I was hoping for

Yohohohohohohohoh
Mmm week shopping before easter
And we have stuff in the stores
Come on over muuricans
Last week or so i spoke with someone about ergonomic work place
You were involved @clear ferry
but who else was
mkay
project jankycam is a go
no, bought a cheapo ONVIF capable PoE camera
Oh, I'm gonna jankycam an old android phone with gaffer tape on my monitor 
heh
I'm printing a mount for the thing it's supposed to be looking at
there's no way to attach it to the camera body
the "visor" on this camera is part of the case and can't be removed so there's no stud on there to take advantage of
I think I'm going to have to build something that will go all the way to the back of the camera where the mount attaches
@clear ferry iyye 😊
Perfect weekend weather here.
10c and sunny here, can't complain, my parents still have 2m of snow
Snow 🤢

Back in the days, I used to be like snow 😍
I love it, I want to move back north 90% because of snow
Let me know if you want to borrow my snow blower. It is sitting in the garage since I bought it n
Not much snow here this year, been like this for most parts since December
That looks nice.
We do a lot of forest in Norway
I was surprised at how much trees there was in Georgia
I had only been on the east coast before
There are a lot of trees in the USA.
Helmet rather?
Helmet cam is other option. For that, I need helmet. Stores are closed. 😃

I have GoPro at home, I could use it right away
Just glue it to your head
lol
Not like you are using it anyway
Super glue
Tec7 should do it
We don’t get it in USA. That looks like European brand
lmao
atxblyat only friend of ak47
Just got notification that I am nearing the storage on my iCloud. Apple by default stores everything on iCloud. There is no default option unless I turn off iCloud backup. It sucks.
Every time I install a new app, I have to go in there and turn off explicitly. Sucks ass.
Yeah, I run nextcloud for stuff like that
I prefer to manage my own cloud.
Any clue what the issue is when check config button just keeps showing that green loading circle?
Green means good. After that, it should turn to blue. If you keep clicking, it will keep validating and keep turning green, and turns back blue.

That’s what people used to believe in flash photography ironically 🤣
have zones been discontinued?
I like the new mouse support in iPadOS
@vale vault zones are such an integral part of location tracking, It will never be discontinued. Also, #672217570283094017 or #330944238910963714 for questions like these.
@brisk glen it never had before? I never tried it, but assume it has support for BT keyboard and mouse.
thanks skalalalalavaa I'll head there
@last plaza iPad os 13.4 added proper mouse support
It’s dynamic as well
The pointer changes depending on the context its hovering over
@brisk glen I love when apple comes along with stuff android has had for years and go groundbreaking, new amazing features 
@clear ferry lol, but the dynamic cursor is really nice

Lol Android has had that for forever
Atleast 10 years
Android had a transforming cursor systemwide that changed if you moved over a button etc?
Lol
Sounds like something Microsoft is going to do for everything soon
The numbers for Norway were interesting
We have gone 65% less to social places like bars and restaurants since 13th of march
And 42% less to grocery stores
Found an old picture of my garage from 11 years ago or something 
Was from a customer solution we used for POC
Was 5 42u racks total
When we moved we had no room for it, so I took one
Plus the little one
Damn shame 😄
Ok, slowly learning docker and docker-compose. I get creating a folder on the host, outside of the docker, to store persistent settings. What I can’t figure out is where to put the docker-compose file. Does it matter?
Not really, just remember where it is
🤣
Lol
I create a folder for them
But then, after years of running systems, I have standards I follow 🤷
Hey look atx made a funny
I have a /docker folder where I put everything
Or a hpux customer that noticed /stand was very large, so he deleted it, fine and well until the reboot
Turns out certain versions of Solaris wouldn't reboot without /dev/null

That was fun helping somebody else fix
I guess how does the docker commands know where it is
You have to tell it
Always
Ok. That makes sense
Some things have default locations, or search paths
But, generally speaking, with anything on a computer - it needs told (somehow)
So, I should just put it somewhere that makes my navel wobble
As long as you remember
Just make bash aliases
Basically, now is a good time to start making standards 😉
I know where everything is that makes my navel wobble
Atx has been social distancing too long me thinks. Sad thing is, I don’t understand the jokes 🤣
You have to have been doing unix for too wrong for any of his jokes to make sense 😉

Otherwise, like UDP, you won't always get it ...
Ok. I think I got that
Ok so to get id dockeruser do I need an actual docker running?
I suspect dockeruser is a placeholder for your user account
But... depends on where you're reading that 😉
Not with that name
There's a group
I am trying very hard to follow this
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/nginx-reverse-proxy-set-up-guide-docker/54802
In light of the recent “hacking” stories, last week I set myself the goal of implementing Nginx. I read most related posts in this forum and elsewhere, but was unable to find a step by step guide for “enthusiasts” with limited it skills. Therefore I proceeded to do it the hard...
Yeah, that's a place holder for your Docker user
And Tinkerer, after reading up all the links. Am I correct to say that ssl uses synchronous vs https that uses asynchronous?
Auh, if my user is pi. I just run id pi
Yup
If I make it there I think it will be. The letsencrypt thing is tough for me. Having one cert in one place that updates for all my webservers seems like a good thing
Do I have to create the file structure for the docker compose volumes of the docker compose will do that ?
Basically, this makes it so your apps don't have to care about certs anymore
If so, create the volumes the way you want. If not, don't worry about it
The docker compose file has folders I do not have.
/home/pi/docker/letsencrypt/config:/config
Worried about permissions and would like the docker compose file to actually create the files so it is done right if possible
Ok. My bad. Directions say to to create the directory.
Yep, gotta make them. And it doesn't have to be that path
Left side is on your system. Usually need to leave the right side alone
Right, so on my system I mkdir /home/pi/docker/letsencrypt/config
@dull chasm did you test DSD on 3080 yet ?
That is cheating
Ok, so I did all I could and now can’t hit the HAss instance.
I didn’t do this part as I have no idea what it is
You need to edit all the sections containing fastcgi_pass hostip:9000; and proxy_pass http://hostip 23:XXXX;
@tidal bronze dsd?
Yes
i dont do crooked ....just saying
Have you tried 5.8MHz.
Try some DSD tracks let me know. I am using DLNA from NAS
2.8MHz 
you got from usenet or something?
You need Nils Lofgren - Acoustic @tidal bronze no use playing anything else for reference
Must check it out. I use Stax mainly
#hardware-archived or #integrations-archived @restive pond
I think I am close with this docker thing. I got the container up and running and think I did my nginx config correctly but I can’t hit my HAss instance. Where can I look for error messages?
@restive pond every vacuum comes with a wire. Just connect to power, it becomes connected.
Can you connect directly to it @green inlet ?
docker logs -f container-name
Then it's a problem with your NGINX config most likely
I am pretty sure. Where can I find an example of default
That is where everything is config correct
Also. Do I something about x-forwarder in my HAss config?
Tired now. Been looking at it all day. If I hastebin my nginx setup will you look at it? Way above my head
Sure
My own config is at https://github.com/DubhAd/Home-AssistantConfig/tree/master/etc/nginx/conf.d for reference
shh audio is more important
Yes, silent audio is important. I'm glad you agree 😉
quality at 1000w is important ...me and @tidal bronze need all the details
Ok. Will look at yours first and see if it helps.
@clear ferry dude Thank you. 👍

@dull chasm it's Bobby California
huh
that dude had a character on The Office called Bobby California
oh.... I was about to say I aint no snowflake

one of my friends was thinking we reached the peak here in the midwest and I was like.. dude have you not seen the tidal wave coming from the east coast of infection? lol
the comfirmed cases map shows a wave sweeping the nation in the swipe left motion lol
Left ——>right and right——>left. Going to meet in the middle

@dull chasm his version of the national anthem that got him death threats is one of the best ever
yea no doubt
blind dude singing about "oh say can you see" is pretty funny though
oh he is blind ..i didnt know
you didn't?
no
Quick question: Is HACS still working with 0.107.7? I haven't found any docs on using it with newer versions
should hope so, i'm using it with 107.7
Got it. I guess I can give it a try than .
Any new grimm news for today? Haven't watched tv yet
'parrently NC is beating projections to the good side
cool... I see Alabama is going for state wide shutdown...
did you hear the news about the federal stockpile being sold to distributors instead of given to states?
shit.. I did not see that!
that's why the governors are ending up bidding one another
so the stuff that was bought with taxpayer funds is being sold to distributors
then states are having to call those distributors and buy them
with more taxpayer money obvs
damn it! probably making shit load of money in the middle
my 3d printer is too small :/
thats what she said
@last dirge done with the irrigation system?
no
the relay board I got isn't latching
I'm trying to teach myself how flip flop circuits work and how I'd implement that so I can add latching to them
does anyone know if it's possible to emulate a bluetooth keyboard for control of a device, like the harmony hub
why not drive independent relays?
not enough IO
have multiple esp8266 boards for each zone
and drive relays/solenoids from each of those on demand
don't want to deal with that much stuff
I've already got to multiplex the I2C since all of the sensors have the same damn address
these parts are cheap, I'd go with the easy and known route 😉
I don't want the "knowledge" split up like that
lol
if I wanted to add a rain sensor, I'd have to add it X times instead of one
you keep all the "knowledge" in HA, they are just command receivers
and I'd have to have multiple buck converters
which cost about the same as a flip-flop IC
so, it's meh
may be time to 3d-print something that you can replicate
I'm currently printing a mount for jankycam
ok... how far is the camera from the 7 segment display?
I don't have anything that fit the bill
and regardless of what I used, it'd have to have a rigid mount so that the camera's always in the same spot
oh man, I went to a thrift store and picked up beautiful web cameras for $2 each
the 7-segment component relies on XY offset
yes, I saw the 7-segment component
so you have to tell it where the display starts and ends
and if that's not repeatable then it's not so useful
yup
I already disassembled the camera to figure out if there was a way I could do it differently
there wasn't, really
so I drilled holes for bolts and I'm gonna bolt a plastic bracket to it 🙂
cool
for the irrigation thing, there's no way in hell I'm programming all of that in hass
I'll probably end up feeding state data but that'll probably be it
my vacation that's not really a vacation starts Tuesday
so I'll have time to figure it out
lol
I was supposed to be in the DR
What did you end up going with for irrigation? I need to get mine fixed and then add a better controller
buuuuut
@wet pilot for my actual irrigation system I'm using an OpenSprinklerPi
for this garden irrigation system I'm rolling my own
Ah cool
SHT20 sensors for soil moisture
relays to drive 12V pumps to use water from a catchment tank
I have 4 zones and I want to do something better than a simple timer
OpenSprinkler's been good for me
replaced my crappy RainBird system the builder installed
Yeah, that's what I have right now
