@clear ferry , brown cheese is actually quite nice. Hoping to try it on waffles this weekend ๐. Itโs no ๐ฎ though
I was thinking grilled cheese sandwich?
Or not a Norway thing?
Itโs a weird combination as I am used to sweet and salty but not sweet and cheesy
We would never do brown cheese on a grilled sandwich 
And your jams/jellies are the same as ours?
Yeah, generally "jams" have fruit parts in, except for the smooth ones
whats the meaning whats the point
god damn, shelly stuff looked so nice, app so clean aswell ... all untill you try to add a device... then it just wont work
well F it, was just gonna try the damn device guess i might aswell just flash esphome on it right away instead
not a big fan of tasmota tbh
much preffere esphome
well the shelly app is probbly the worst phone app i've ever used, prettymuch not a single feature in it works
Neither. MQTT with the stock firmware works perfectly for me.
Ignore the phone app and log into the web server on the device for configuration instead.
ooooh, i can do that ey? well that sounds alot smoother ๐ ah well, im already hooked up now ready to flash
besides, i can do custom effects easier with esphome
Jelly vs jam vs marmalade vs preserves
we just separate them all into categories because reasons
For the same reason that tomatoes are berries
and bananas
@clear ferry all for me?
Right. Jam/jelly/marmalade/preserves/banana with fruit in it โ
Hmmm....that actually sounds good. I was just being my typical sarcastic self
For the same reason that Tomato jelly would I suspect
Have you ever had tomato aspic ๐คข
knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit
wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad
Our DM likes to tout that a lot
Tomatoe aspic == tomato jello. It is the most god awful thing on this planet
that sounds horrible
Isn't ketchup essentially tomato jelly?
also completely unrelated, but i'm looking for a new job so if anyone knows of any full time WFH accounting jobs, let me know pls (i didn't lose my current job, i just want more experience elsewhere). preferably not public accounting (looking for an industry position)
๐ฆ what happened?
More like tomato sauce
Oh nothing--I just want to get more experience at other companies
And working from home the last three months has been quite nice so I think I'd like to try that full time for a while
We're back in the office now, despite being able to do everything I need to from home ๐
seems logical
Yeah it's not like there's a pandemic going on or anything
There is no pandemic in murrrica
This is the first Samuel Jackson meme Iโve seen that doesnโt have the M*** F*** in it ๐
This is some real gourmet shit
Bought an outdoor smart plug on Amazon for $13...it says it uses the smart life app so I'm hoping I can tuya-convert it. No existing tasmota template, so if I can convert it, I'll hopefully be able to figure out the GPIO layout with the tasmota tool and provide a template for others ๐ฌ
DO IT
arrives tomorrow ๐
nothing beats the $4.50 smart switch i got from amazon yesterday that i was able to tuya-convert though
that was a screamin deal
sounds like you are planning to burn down your house :p
๐ฑ
He already tried that when he attempted cooking 
THAT WAS ONE TIME!
I think one time is the maximum amount of times a building can burn to the ground ๐ค
Well, not the cooking part. The whole ruining one of my spatulas part
@tidal bronze what's a decent drone just for messing around?
I found a drone I bought for my dad 3 years ago still unopened in the basement so I stared messing around with it
potato quality camera and flight time is horrible
Mavic 2 Pro is a good starting point
the one I'm playing with was probably $100
mavic mini seems much more palatable
or even the air 2
seems legit
@last dirge used mavic pro.
LOOK AT ALL THESE PIXELS
there's literally hundreds of them
@tidal bronze why used pro vs new air 2?
Air range is shit. Works on wifi not 2.4 RF
looks like you can get 'em all day long for $900 with two batteries
this looks like NOS
Looks good.
Check FB market place and CL. Better deals.
It's that time of the year. ๐
Diet beer? That's a first
It's non alcoholic. Anyways, it's LA you always count calories. ๐
@last dirge I got Mavic pro a few years ago. Amazing video 4k quality and never crashed it.
๐ค
Fly more combo FWIW
I dont get it when ebay sellers are ending auctions early. Just one ended it 6 hours before the deadline. Do people realize most bids come in the last hour to minutes?
Did you invert the bottle before opening @tidal bronze ?
Always. ๐
that is an ugly bird
Donโt taunt the bird. Looks like it could peck your eyes out
It is telling you to put more bird feed.
The bird is like, I flew all the way here for this shit? And giving you that look.
@unreal orbit ugly is in the eyes of beholder.
Google is way off ๐ค
so is beauty ๐
It's non alcoholic. Anyways, it's LA you always count calories. ๐
@tidal bronze calories or bullets?
Just calories
Waiting for whiteclaw to come up with 0 calorie ginger
@forest edge you always get the steps right but shoes wrong ๐
I'm pretty sure I saw those exact shoes being looted from the shoe store on the news @tidal bronze lol
See you are bad with shoes that was Adidas
@tidal bronze oh sorry, i'm not a shoe expert lol
Why don't you use Adidas when you farm? ๐
doubt they would hold up to cow shit
besides why that much money for footwear when stuff 5x less work as good or better lol
Cloudfoam ultimate was made to glide on cow shit. You gotta do your research sir.
i seriously doubt anything with a name like "cloudfoam" knows anything about animal feces
sounds like something some cubical worker came up with then "rented" a dog for testing purposes lol
@peak cloud well this is interesting. i guess the EMPs stop going off between 21:00 and 05:00
@dull chasm Iโll stick to my Ariats for a few more years. ๐
Search for a container image for NTPsec
3 Exist, 2 outdated by years, 1 is broken
Make One
Publish it but keep tweaking it not paying attention
About 30 test commits
It works at least....
Then I saw how many people pulled my damn container while I was working on it. 2K Pulls and its a half a day old. Lazy people cant make their own >.>
@scenic radish Wow, that definitely makes me think there is some sort of external interference going on.
is there a position transmission box nearby? Those things are noisy af
a wut
The more users in a mobile cell the worse the s/n ratio.
every so often down the rails there is a radio transmitter box that is sending small currents through the rails to detect trains and report positions
Shouldn't change the absolute signal strength though.
@young sigil You have a good point there. The most interference is being caused during โnormalโ wake hours.
Maybe it is being caused just by other cellular devices in the area?
Tower could be out of tune. When load picks up, radiators will leak rf as a result
@peak cloud that's what I'd put my money on.
damn right people are lazy
im lazy af. you put some sort of program out there and i need it, im so swiping that stuff.
@bitter pawn Prob doesnt help that its the only dockerized NTP server/client thats capable of NTS and using cloudflares secure time server.
Its going up 100 pulls per 25-45 mins
i mean people need NTP
if anything i'd take it as a compliment people are using my shit.
Oh I am but what surprised me is how quickly it spiked. It shows how many people are shuffling through the repo and refreshing "recently updated" for new stuff to play with.
@peak cloud city slicker
@dull chasm country bumpkin
yep and proud of it
Now now, children.
@forest edge , no need to count bullets, the cops do that ๐
several different types .... about 8 diff calibers
I have a couple boxes ๐คจ
I buy in bulk for the range
I usually go through 200-250 each time I go to the range
My theory. If you canโt take care of business with one magazine, time to change strategies ๐ณ
Strange
that doesnt work with zombies ...need much more than one clip
You buy rounds at the range
30-06 and 650 yds? Ill waste my entire day and 400 USD of ammo
I doubt you have guns that actually have clips @dull chasm
i have two that do
What about a belt?
All guns have clips
no no no no
Unless you have an M1 Garand
i do and a mosin nagant
You have mortar rounds
That's pretty cool Vas
i am proud of you ..... most dont know the diff between clip and mag
Yessir
When you take the CCL classes here, its kinda surreal but they drill it into you, "If you pull, you shoot to kill."
Turns out: Less paperwork and legal mess
Well, you shoot to stop the threat not kill
my classes was at 29 palms ...keesler ...beening and bragg
Actaully no they literally say you end it
They can come back at you in civil court and bankrupt you
Well, yeah, that is wrong.
Even if it was pure self-defense
Sounds like...not a great instructor
He was Green Beret so I figure he was a bit cooked in the head
stop a threat is the best practice ....civ or military ...heck it takes two men to carry one wonded
Sometimes 3.... damn fatass americans and not fitting in the damn ambulance
i was airborne ranger ....and that is never taught unless you mis understood
Center mass ๐ to stop the threat.
Yup
He didnt say he was taught that
And once the threat is gone, you best stop shooting
But he was very clear. I dont agree with it
It was just surreal to actually hear someone go durr like that
Terrifying thought anyway. I hope I never find myself in that situation
My instructor made it very clear it is an absolute last resort. If you can avoid or escape the situation, you need to do that
in conflicts/war you shoot center mass but if enemy is no longer combative ...you dont just shoot him again to kill is what i was saying i guess
Well, center mass because thatโs where all the vital organs are. Typically, center mass will be terminal. Just, if it isnโt, you canโt go up and shoot them in the head ๐คฃ
yep
Yeah I get it. I have a brain. This guy wouldve actually responded back to that: nah you shoot them in the head once more
As has been very well documented on tv these days
Lovely CCL class that was
go to ranger school ...
we learn basic med tatics
Trauma and Impact damage is always fun. Here if you just look at the numbers it says you are more likely to die from oxy or H with the way things are rn
Even through COVID it hasnt slowed down :\
Bet you see more people badly wounded by smaller caliber bullets that donโt exit than a through and through
Oh fuck yes. Some people use hollow points. Lots of gang shootings do if they are targeted. Were basically doing surgery in the bus otw to the hospital with how bad that shit is
Ok, well, back to ๐ฎ and ๐
all day for me
@forest edge , no need to count bullets, the cops do that ๐
@green inlet I was under the impression cops couldn't count.. @dull chasm ||JK||
no sweat
I hate baby wasp
let's just sting anything that moves then die horribly to a makeshift flame thrower
To discord? Or in life?
I always scroll up and catch up
And then make a random untimely comment
Naw....try it
Exactly
So, I need to google clips cause I was under the impression there was no such thing as a clip. Only magazines
Whatever happened to murder wasps?
Diff between a clip and a magazine is the casing.
Clips must me older style or foreign?
Cool....I just put a bunch of rounds in my magazine, slap that biatch in and pull the trigger ๐
With the gun on its side and biggie playing in the background
๐ณ๐คฃ
One can perpetrate right
I feel like @last plaza breaks out every once and a while and lives the thug life lika boss?
Not just once. Always. ๐
Lmao....Ska livโn the thug live indef
I've never understood gun culture, and I grew up on a farm.
Not likely. I understand that those things are systematic problems that are the core problems in a broken country. Fixed by having actual gun laws, actual rehabilitation, and a government that actually cares for the disadvantaged ๐
You know, it is Thursday right....that means tomorrow is Friday. And Friday, basically starts the weekend where we all have fun. So letโs not start picking on each other and ruin our weekend. ๐ป
It's Friday for me already ๐ Definitely keen for the weekend. Getting close to "happy" with my Lovelace dashboards. Might finish them off on the weekend.
My lovelace setup is really needing attention. Would love to see what you are doing
Lovelace? Why would it need attention?
Don't tell me you still interact with the UI ๐
I have all avenues covered. Cause I am CDO like that
BTW cheers from Thursday
Heh, that's why I left the Lovelace stuff til last. Made sure my automations were all locked away before I bothered with Lovelace. Mostly for out-of-home mobile status/control.
House mostly controls itself. Just occasionally good to have manual control.
Michelada.....now thatโs an awesome summer drink ๐
UI only useful when adding devices or testing something else pointless.
Whatever happened to murder wasps?
@last plaza dunno but with the amount of wasp killer I sprayed all around my shed earlier the cloud will likely kill every insect between here and the east coast
Unless you have 5 different users, all with different personalities, wants, and needs
๐คฃ
Some like voice, some like widgets, some like UI.
That stuff does not fly here. Lol. Handsfree for many years. ๐
don't be knocking the ui, i use it all the time
Wowza.
My son hates the automation. He comes home and uses his key in the zwave lock. Itโs not about me, it is just who he is. The other day, he asked for a widget for the garage door. #babysteps
Cow shit and ui. What's going on buddy ? @forest edge
@tidal bronze not all of us use voice only and hand gestures
Voice is when some shit has gone sideways. ๐
sure it isn't the hand gestures? if you had neighbors close enough they would probably wonder why you were air masturbating lol
Sonoma, your filter is almost as broken as mine ๐
@forest edge you should know my neighbors rarely see me and me them.
@rain swift , live and let live
Sure thing: Masks prevent deaths - this is proven. Guns cause deaths - this is proven. Pretty simple maths ๐
Few more months and we can be all ecstatic with the mules. Good times ahead.
You remember baskin and Robbins?
oh i know, we all know you live in a high security fort with guard chihuahua and 10 foot walls where the ups guy has to catapult packages to your door @tidal bronze
@forest edge you got almost everything right except the tiny dog. ๐
Dude you never seize to crack me up.
Talking about dogs, my life
He is waiting for me to jump in ๐
@tidal bronze , I want your life ๐คฃ
Caught my dog chewing on some plastic this morning. No idea what he'd managed to destroy. Hopefully he hasn't swallowed any!
@rain swift any time in LA swing by.
me dog has an esp32 in his stomach
Oh boy. Lol.
Hopefully it's in deep sleep mode.
@tidal bronze do you have a rock climbing wall in your pool? lol
Time for a slice of brown cheese
its quite acid in the stomach, just a bit of lead needed
@green inlet I just cut the cheese a little bit ago ๐
u jewish>
I cut the cheese like 8 times in the past 15 minutes. Had Walmart baked beans with brisket for dinner. That shit rawks
8 times huh @green inlet phew.
holy shit I live in a commie flat, im so poor
Smells like ๐น
@rain swift pool and port wine usually or single malt.
he just said he needed to slice the brown cheese.. only norwegians say brown cheese when not referring to something that stains your undies
i;m poor and lonely, tired of people treating me like a doormat
I have to go ghetto and use the neighborhood pool. I bought some brown cheese to see what all the hype was about
Where did you get it from ?
then found yourself the only person in the hopistal that dosen't have covvid?
Amazon. Actually pretty good. Hint of dulce de leche
if you have a strouts near you they carry it
oh it is sprouts lol
gouda is for poor, rich people eat emmental
I would wait till covid is over. No idea where it came from but the ice pack it shipped with was water and the cheese was room temp
the woman goes there i don't. thought it was strouts heh
Me like my poor gouda
I also got a kick out of the ice pack it came with
@green inlet link ?
many would say Cheddar but its british
white bread, mayo and a single cheese slice.. typical kids meal
Havarti rocks as well.
if I had money I would only eat meat and cheese
havarti is too sweet
@green inlet thank you will order tonight.
It's that time.
@green inlet not prime ?
Free shipping no?
My wife is the amazon expert. I just pay whatever it tells me ๐คฃ
I donโt do carbs. So waiting for the weekend to try the waffles with brown cheese and strawberry jam
planning your weekend on the crapper huh?
I am on keto as well. Saturday is the only day I eat anything other.
@green inlet arriving on 16th not bad. Thanks again.
Greens in the morning. Meat and cheese/ghee in the evening 6 days. So eating very less.
don't tell me your one of those power shake breakfast people who blend a salad and drink it?
gross!
I've cut out red meats from my diet. Not due to any care for the animals (grew up on a farm and frequently butchered my own meat), but was concerned when I found out how much greenhouse gasses cows produce!
i see those commercials where those people blend god knows what and it looks like alien vomit
and they like here try this it's good! and the person sniffs it and about upchucks
Those farty bastards contribute 18% of all greenhouse gasses in the world! ๐ฉ
I do miss the taste and texture ๐
Looks delicious @tidal bronze! That pesto sauce?
No carbs, no sugars, intermediate fasting. I just get tired of the meat gazing women. I mean man, my eyes are up here
Chimichurri / lamb @thick dragon
@green inlet I am 16/8 6 days.
Don't have time to exercise at all so gotta watch what I eat always.
@tidal bronze you may wanna check your house for bats, it looks like they been hanging above your dinner
LMAO I was waiting for some shit from you.
lol
I only eat between noon and 8 and have been subjected to garage workouts (sit-ups and pushups ) plus cardio since covid.
Don't have blackberries down there.
Cycle and VR workouts for me ๐
Funny. My neighborhood has a bat problem
I can do anything keto but no fucking butter in my coffee. No way.
I give my dog apple cider vinegar to keep his beard clean (Mini Schnauzer).
He hates it, but he got used to it ๐
I had an uncle who lived till 105. Claims it was Apple cider vinegar every day
Lol. So cool.๐ I have a giant schnauzer@thick dragon
some people just live forever no matter what
He bacame a senior this year.
Great breed, except around smaller dogs that look like rats ๐
Mine is only 3 years old - still puppyish.
So much energy, if I don't lock a door 1 am he is in the pool.
apple cider vinegar? super gross.. that shit is super acidic
You gotta get with the times buddy.
people use that to burn warts off thier skin for christ sake lol
Now and then drive down that 530 miles to the town and see what's happening. You will be surprised
It's not 1964 anymore.
I seriously doubt I will see apple vinegar power shakes in everyone's hand
Ah ha ha ha
be alot of dead people in town lol
no joke, slap some meat on the grill and call it a meal
skip the grass clippings and alien jizz
Oh ma ma mia.
That's what apple cider looks like to midwest farmers. ๐
some of that stuff quad eats could be mistaken for alien jizz to a person looking at it in all fairness
i'd probably die of starvation in california lol
People certainly eat weirder things ๐
That you would. @forest edge
Even keto.
Meat and greens
Yep.
"Eat the things before they eat you" - the cave man motto.
I don't anything but blueberry blackberries and not so ripe strawberry
Pretty sure cavemen ate peanut butter
watermelon?
omg
High glycemic index
if i was across from you holding a stapler guess what would be happening right now quad
I googled it. Cavemen ate peanut butter damn it
Ah ha ha ha.
why not watermelon wtf is wrong with that?
Not more than 4g sugar whole day. Watermelon would fuck it up.
Natural sugars count for a keto diet
it just dawned on me why the lines for fast food joints are so long in cali when i saw that crap on the news
those poor people
starving in thier vehicles
i wondered who the hell would endure waiting in a line for that long but I guess if your starvving to death you would do just about anything lol
Last time I had watermelon 3 months ago
haha
we can't do that here, between the beer all day and then eating something with hard liquor like that our death count would sky rocket and gatherings for events would have been banned long before covvid
LMAO. Got fuffed up that day.
This thing is deadly man.
I've seen that done with watermeleon before, never tried but seen it
I can count the amount of times I been shit faced on both hands and wanted to keep it that way lol
Oh boy fastest way to bottoms up on a bottle of vodka.
one of my shit face was a whole bottle of tequila with the gold flakes. shared between two buddies
I was shit faced down on grass. Wife was laughing her ass off. We split in 2 but I already had half a bottle of scotch. Didn't end well for me.
good thing your place is gated off.. you may havve woken up with a sore bum lol
Woulda felt that the next day @tidal bronze!
LMAO. @thick dragon I was out the next day. Been drinking since 8AM.
@tidal bronze @forest edge @green inlet @rain swift i leave yall unsupervised for 30 minutes and its hell in a hand basket .... bonus points if you know the etomology of that pharse
You should make your sandwich by 4pm so this shit won't happen.
its getting close to bedtime for the working man
You take 3 hours to make that and then blame us. What gives.?
sanity?
I thought of 10PM was your bedtime. ?
no 2100 hrs at latest
You will be fine once you get to 18 years. Hang in there.
Lol.
Gotta go as well. Time to have a few. Cheers guys and good night.

Anyone know where to get rpi zero w for the 10 USD official price without 1 or customer limit? I want to setup room presence and need like 8
you sure you need that many? that's a lot
but no, most places in the US are either out of stock or have limits
One in each room I was thinking
they'll overlap quite a bit
2 in my 2-story 3100sqft house are more than enough to know that I'm home
even one in teh center would probably be enough
look at rob with his more than one story
back in my day we had one story and we liked it
it's 'Murica, gotta spread out
point is that they have more range that you think if you're just looking for "am I home?" type presence
right but it sounds like they're looking for room presence
have you considered using this @late gate ? https://github.com/Tediore/input_boolean-renamed-to-flippy_boi

Used hours trying to figure out why Google assistant refused to use YouTube music when it was unlocked, but worked when it was locked. After 5 hours I installed the old Google music and found I had to deregister old phones like S4 old ones, the uninstall. Now assistant works. That's a stupid bug
I feel accomplished. Thanks to all my messing around with Home Assistant/VMs/Linux/YAML/Python, I was able to set up a python analytics server on linux that connects to MS SQL using AD credentials, and authenticates the users against our LDAP server at work. Never would have been able to do it without all the knowledge I gained messing around with HA.
god damn those aluminium rails for led-strips are damn expensive
freaking 15$ per meter
Check out the links lower down on this page. $9/m for the flat profile. https://quinled.info/2019/01/17/importance-of-led-cooling/
where on aliexpress can i see the sellers location?
because if its from china it'll be way to expenive to order it
China but they have free shipping if you don't mind waiting a month or two.
sweden adds 20$ fee for all packages from china
if i order 1 esp32 for 4$ i have to pay 20$ swedish tax for the import
That's one way to cut down on imports I suppose.
well, our postal service was about to colapse as they give all their money to pay for danish unemployment, so the china packages where killing them
so they added a fee for it
yes, swedish postal service pays for danish unemployment
lovly aint it
Australia charges a flat 10% (of goods and freight) fee. When I order a few resistors (or one ESP) it wouldn't cover the cost of the paperwork. Bloody ridiculous.
sweden and denmark decided to combine their postal service, the same year that denmark desided to remove 90% of their postal service, so they gave their postal office workers payd leave for 3 years ( i think it was ) because of that they lose like 200 milion each year, while swedish postal make like 250 milion per year, but because they are combined in the same company sweden therefore has to pay for the loss that denmark makes
so denmark basically sent their workers home with full pay and left sweden to cover the cost
which is why if i wanted to send a letter to my nextdoor neighbour through the postal service i'd take about 3 weeks for it to arrive, if it arrives at all
How many meters do you need?
not quite sure yet, project is still in planing phase ๐
They introduced the same tax in Norway earlier this year
My packages still arrive as normal without any extra tax
Norway moved to only postal delivery three days a week now too, which makes sense
when people put in crown molding with led strips, how far down do they put them? normaly you out crownmolding right at where the wall meets the ceiling, but with led strips you gotta put it further down right?
Yeah have a look a the google image search result for "led crown molding".
doesn't it look kinda wird to have it down on the wall tho? its not a big thing here so i dont think i've ever seen it in real life
I thought about doing leds under the molding of the floor in my daughter's room but the acrylic I needed for diffusing was close to $500 because I needed it so thin and narrow yet long
looking at the design of this one tho.. https://www.amazon.co.uk/QL007-Skirting-Board-Socket-Indirect-Polyurethane/dp/B07BKNG3B6
guess i could just get one of those ceiling frameing things that go with a bend like that, then throw a normal aluminium rail under it
or above it if i do it on the ceiling
probbly better do it on the ceiling.. the floor will look dirty as hell with lighs on it from the side like that i think ๐
with 2 dogs my xiaomi vaccum already has enough work as it is
how often do you dust crownmolding?
Getting a few intrusion attempts. Just had to re-enable IPBan.
Sounds like a thing you'd want to ask in #frontend-archived
Anyone who drives near my lot must think I'm nutty because I'm broadcasting 7 different wifi networks. 
i have 3
I have trusted, guest, and IoT
general wifi, LAN-only with no WAN access, and WAN only with no LAN access
Uh whoops lol
Instead of a LAN only VLAN I just use firewall rules for devices on the trusted LAN that I don't want to have internet access
Why 7 @brazen fable ? Seems excessive lol
lol ill explain in a sec
1 - High speed use. Wifi AX. For laptop, phones, etc Connected to everything important
And my AX!
2 - 2.4ghz, also wifi ax, for low bandwith things and range.
3 - Guest network. VLAN'd off with portal.
4 - Camera VLAN - I have a handful of wifi cams in addition to my wired cams. They're all on their own VLAN with no WAN. Cameras only.
- IoT things - Untrusted but need internet access. Such as pet feeder.
- Trusted IoT things - No WAN necessary or given
- Replacing #1 because I'm changing the SSID's
And i run a combination of unifi AP's and aruba's for indoors and out
Seems like a nightmare to manage but I understand the logic ๐
and i'll probably replace the arubas once wifi6e drops and i get some wifi 6e clients.
And I'm debating building a new pfsense box that's super beefy
๐ฎ
something that can route 5gbit+ with IPS on
And next project is upgrading my "backbone" to 40gbps gear
now that things are reopening i might be able to finally order the comcast gigabit pro. 3gbps symmetrical
GLORIOUS GLORIOUS bandwidth
Lmao
I'd settle for 1gbps/1gbps but that's not available in the consumer market here
so im stuck with a paltry 40gbps upload
really puts a damper on a lot of my applications
I started my backups to google drive a month and a half ago from fresh and they're still not done. Lol.
40mbps I'm assuming you meant
oh, right
I have 200 down, 10 up. Not super fun with the VPN but is fine
yeah that's the other half of the reason. I tend to leave my phone on vpn all day connected to my house
so as it stands i have to log in, rdp to my server kill my uploads so it's useable
My work blocks both wireguard and OpenVPN ๐ข
oof
Well, it doesn't block OpenVPN but it blocks my server's public ipv6 address
I have a nifty setup in one of my cars for such situations.
I have a network installed in my car that's vpn'd into my house. Car has it's own mobile internet connection from ATT
I also have a directional high gain wifi antenna hooked up to it so i can point it at any building and get pretty ok speeds so long as it's not a faraday cage
Yeah I'm jk
Just curious do people have cameras set up inside their house?
Thinking would it be 'creepy' to have one in my sons room (hes only 6)
doesn't need to be best quality just so i know if everything is okay without leaving office space
Baby monitor
i got one in my sons room but its focus is really only on the door so he can change and whatever but if somebody does go into his room several cameras will catch the person including his room
I have none indoors, but I don't currently have any need for them. If my son was a lot younger, then I'd likely have one in his room as a baby monitor.
One in the office space would be another consideration
No indoor cameras for us. Wife would kill me.
No alexas or google hubs either.
I gave away 4 echos. Still got a couple of them unplugged, collecting dust.
I've got ... 5 Google Hubs, 4 minis ๐
Sure, if you've got Siri ๐
Everybody here has got to quite like being able to ask Google to do things...
I've got 16 echos
and 2 google mini's
And quite a few cameras indoors and out
The indoor cams dont record, however
I donโt think I have that many power outlets available at home.

One indoor camera on a zwave outlet that only powers on when the alarm is set ๐
I have at least 1 UPS in every room. My office/homelab room needed to have 2 separate breakers installed to handle the power draw
Kept blowing the damn circuit
You might want to talk with someone.......acknowledging the problem is the first step to recovery ๐คฃ
UPS is fine behind TV or hidden. They are ugly and consume space.
Plus i have every piece of my network equipment hooked up to UPS to keep the network flowing if power is dodgy
which includes the switches in each room
I am big on not being able to see automation
Or the use of UI. If you are going to keep clicking on UI, it is not much of an automation. Is it?
Voice command all the things!
I want to automate my blinds but wires from every blind ?
You should see what happens when any of my doors open

- All the echos I have announce that the door is opened.
- All my lights start flashing red
๐คข
It's a big house. And I can't hear the door open if I'm upstairs.
Hmm on the door is a good idea
but i've got one 6 year old and one 2 year old and had to go in an see why one was crying ๐
If there's a bad guy I want ample time to decide which gun I'm going to use

Also happens for windows etc. Or if the garage motion detector fires
I automated shotguns pointed at every exterior door. If my exterior cameras witness a stranger and then the door opens, they are shot immediately. I guess not immediately, I did add a - delay: 00:00:05
Lmao if only that weren't highly illegal
I used to go crazy with all the automations and voice notifications and shit. Been reducing my setup for the past few years now.
Although I'm not sure about the legality of a remote operated turret with a camera 
I think he meant his tomato plants are growing like crazy
no
I wondered why the power went off when I was screwing into the wall today: ๐ฌ
RIP
LOL.

i hit a piece of romex with a drywall saw when i was cutting in a box for one of my wall-mounted tablets
Luckily RCD tripped before dying
only cut the outside insulation though, insulation on the individual wires was fine
You don't need a certified union worker to screw things into the wall for you?
In Australia, you might.
You do yes
Tisk tisk
I want to go on vacation to Australia, stay in vacation home and rewire the whole house and fly back.
But before I have to go to Norway for a special trip. Got some tomato plants I need to crush before the owner comes back.
International bullying
Take that, espcam
NVM, its legal to make a hole in a wall provided you don't put anything there and there and no services in the wall which are affected such as Gas, Water or Electical
I think it'd be much more fun to put a mirror in front of the camera... ๐
Still now I have to replace the wiring ๐
๐คฃ
Bonus points for stealing it, and then sending photos of it travelling the world...
i will chip in some of the cost
he has to pick up some chocalte while he is there
damn my spelling sucks
And no brown cheese ๐คข
agreed ....burn it all while you there .... best for the world
get rid of the brown cheese cows
set them free
Anyone with an NFC chip implant, know any Open Source Software for integrating with HASS. Or just go ESP + NFC reader?
run to hospital and get that taken out .....goverment has a eye on you
I want the model that releases chemicals when activated by a specific RF Pulse
Dale did it. He implanted the NFC thingy.
Oh yeah, Dale... who dale?
Does he use it?
There is a DIY kit. You can inject yourself.
Yeah I saw, I would probs take it to licenced piecer, in Australia it would be illegal to do it unlicensed.
Check out the link and products section.
Damn Australia. Need license for everything.
""need""
At the moment I am literally not allowed outside
What crime did you commit that they wonโt let you out?
@last plaza no Christmas presents for you!
All of Melbourne is in stage 3 lock down, which means only leave for exercise and food. While some suburbs are not allowed to leave for any reason, with support given from gov workers.
As of 11:59 yesterday, I am in lock down for 6 weeks.
This lockdown shit is getting old real fast
What are we gonna do, live the rest of our lives under a rock?
We just opened up Norwegians to travel to most of Europe if they want
Yeah someone should tell the virus to stop killing people
From today
I mean. Pandemics happen. It's shitty but it's life
I need to figure out a way to travel to Europe then.
At a certain point the "cure" becomes worse than the poison
International borders are shutdown like crazy.
We should just let USA do their thing though, Darwin and all that 
Yeah. I mean, I can understand shutting down/limiting international travel and all that.
USA will have herd immunity soon enough
Probably not, as some studies show the antibodies are gone after a few months already
All the studies vastly contradict each other
Let USA do their own things. Also remove warning labels off of stuff.
Antibodies don't stick around generally. Your body makes more when the threat comes back
And just because the antibodies are gone doesn't mean they're not stored in memory cells
right
It's a tough situation, and I think the initial lockdown was the right call to prevent overflows at hospitals
Which is still happening
We ramped up infrastructure and hospitals aren't anywhere near capacity
If only the US could have done a nationwide lock down at the same time instead of letting the states decide it 
And who knows if they're ever find a successful vaccine
The US doesn't work that way
State's have state's rights.
The federal government is purposely limited by design
The US doesn't work
that way
@brazen fable
Not even worth it
so the idea for the lockdown was to limit the spike of infection....not eliminate it....
Yep.
To stop from overcrowding hospitals
Fact of the matter is, we can't eliminate it right now
Only a vaccine can do that. If we can produce one
And those typically take years
The world can't survive years in lockdown. Just can't be done
Supply chains are hanging by a thread as it is
No one is suggesting a full lockdown across the country. Just some basic cooperation and social distancing. We can't even get that right.
And the roughest of it will be the countries without ample farmland.
It'd help if the governments stopped contradicting themselves
At first the CDC was like DONT WEAR MASKS
and now they're like WEAR MASKS
It's almost like new information brings new guidelines
Socialism is more like pointing a gun at someone's head and saying "Do this or die"
nah, CDC was trying to save PPE for doctors and shit.
but they shouldn't have lied to the public
Doctors aren't wearing cloth masks.
Somebody got confused between socialism and communism
I'm aware. But people were buying up all the medical grade masks in bulk
this feels like politics
There's no difference between the two as far as enforcement goes
And they're both evil, stupid ideologies
@last plaza someone is confused about a lot of things ๐
like the jewish dude in new york
i thought we were talking about having more than 4 SSIDs
There are two types of people that endorse socialism/communism. Tyrants and complete and utter failures.
@brazen fable take it easy there.
Does ideological theory count as either? 
in other news, why tf can't i get two displays to work with virt-manager
because God hates you
No i don't
@scenic radish Wait for @clear ferry to ๐คฎ, because you're using FOSS virtualisation instead of VMWare.
Proxmox uses KVM
Proxmox is usable ๐
Out of interest have you used Proxmox before, or just don't like it because its different to what you know?
Because I only see shitkids use it tbh, and I have never seen anyone in enterprise even mention it

@clear ferry ordered some Gjetost lets see how goes.
Did you just call me a shitkid ๐ฑ
Imagine complaining about FOSS in a Home Assistant discord.
Just bought a new MB:
MicroATX 
micro is fine for most users nowadays as you don't really use expansion cards
I will use 10Gig Card Connectx3 and GPU
Full ATX or bust
^
What? @clear ferry , I may not have legit brown cheese?
Full ATX is too big
Get a man sized case
EATX for servers. Full ATX for desktops.
Yeah clearly your masculinity is contingent on the size of your motherboard
My preference is for smaller MBs
@rare condor donโt you have prime? September???
I do have prime, just bought it for this MB
micro cost me ~10-20โฌ less than a comparable full ATX and I don't feel like missing out on anything
Shipping was $20 or 6.99 for prime.
So I got prime
@last plaza I live in รodร lรฌyว, it takes time
@green inlet yours is brown, so yes, but geitost can be white goats cheese
Sounds like Norwegian word.
Goat cheese ๐คข
Its what Students call Australia
goats ๐คข
@last plaza looks like a mix of Welsh and Polish
nope
Looks Cantonese to me ๐ค
I think your mixing Traditional v. Simplified, its complex: https://www.pangeanic.com/knowledge_center/what-is-the-difference-between-simplified-chinese-and-traditional-chinese/
TIL IP69K is a thing.
I always whisper TIL IP69K in my wifeโs ear. Gets her super hot.
Don't kink shame him
Should add that to the rules of lounge tbh
@green inlet lol
Interesting that @green inlet 's wife gets turned on by ingress protection ratings though
I didn't say anything bad about his ingress protection kink, I was saying wtf. Because I finally found someone with the same kink ๐ฅฐ
You should see what happens when I talk NIDS
@rare condor , YOU HAD ME AT HELLO
I kind of want to see an Adult film, dubbed with technical acronyms, it would be bliss...
I can give you access to my camera.bedroom_camera
At least it's not the rickroll link
This is an official government document. probs the closest they get to rick roll
Who wants to play rock paper scissors for $50 a game?
Installed a PowerPoint today:
whats up
I was gonna clean my room...
Until I got high
I was gonna get up and find the broom
But I got high
I hate drywall repair, so I just put pictures over any holes
That isn't the next line silly
than 9 0r 10 ๐คฃ
@rare condor do you know about the magic of butterfly patches?
I just glue real butterflies to cover the holes
this place is a mess.
@rain swift Good. We lived up to your expectations. ๐
I found an interesting bug in Google Assistant yesterday that made me crazy. Since google force you to move to youtube music from google music I did that since I got youtube premium, but google assistant on the phone refused to use youtube music, just google music, but ONLY when when phone was unlocked (when locked it used youtube music).
After 8 hours of pushing buttons and feeling like an idiot I figured out that in google music old phones are registred. Like very old phones I have not used for years. If any phones are registred in google music google assistant refuse to use youtube music. The solution is to remove old phones from google music and uninstall google music to solve the bug
uninstalling google music was not enough. you have to physically remove old dead phones from it
I've never in my life used Google music, nor YouTube music. 
Been using GMusic for years.... still trying to find a good replacement
May have to go Apple ๐ค
Pfff, Spotify and plexamp for my obscure progressive rock
I've used subsonic for 15 years, but plexamp is a good replacement
I changed from g music to YouTube music couldn't be happier
Much better song selections
We still do good old mp3s & FLAC.
I'm grandfathered in on a lower rate for YouTube premium/Google music so I can't switch unless I want ads in YouTube videos again lol
Likewise
I hardly get ads on YouTube, unless it's kids videos
Ugh here we go again...alright @clear ferry tell us more about how superior Norwat is
I love(d) the Radio option on GMusic, so I could pick a song and have stuff "like" it played. I found a lot of new artists that way
Quite
69% of new cars in Norway are electric
O
Living in the past, the future is coal powered cars and horses
Time to try Spotify premium again then
@clear ferry yeah but then you have to use Spotify 
With Spotify family I pay $15 a month for up to five accounts of premium
Jk, I haven't used Spotify in years. I didn't have a great experience when I used it but that was...6 years ago?
Probably longer actually
It used to be quite sub par
Yeah, I used to have a premium sub, but ... it wasn't half as good as GMusic
Last 4-5 years have been a great ride
I like YouTube music has mixtapes and good EDM remixes
Spotify doesn't
I like the fan made mixes and collabs of diff artists
Depends what your after
Edm ๐คข
@clear ferry hit me with one of those premium accounts 
You can buy them from bitcoingoigigiif.ru/freepremiumhaxxalegit2020


google music is going to be shut down this year for youtube music, thats why I moved. the bug is still on spotify, so if you ever used google music you have to do this to make spotify work
its just a fyi post
Im using youtube premium family and then youtube music is free. cheaper than having spotify on top on that. seem to have to same library
Midnight Sun could totally be a band name
Well it's the title of one of the Twilight books, so probably not the best name
In other news I talked to my manager about my COVID concerns and I'm now 60% WFH ๐
Lol
I was 100% WFH from mid-March until last Tuesday
Then back in the office 100% until I expressed my concerns
We are by default 100 since March, then work as much at customers as we feel comfortable with, the office only for people who want to
I have 1 reason, the coffee is better
My coffee is actually better at home
You need to treat yourself more @light trout
Nah
@clear ferry much better at home
my day rythm is getting worse. went to sleep at 11.30am and got up at 4pm
What's your typical schedule
I work from home so normally 2am to 10am
but yesterday I just could not let the google assistant bug go. Got obsessed by trying to fix it
I'm not a bird
U sure?
Not really
I get up at 05-06 and go to bed at 23-24 these days with the baby
Everyone knows birds aren't even real in the first place
The one that wakes me every morning sure sounds real
*robot
my baby is two huskies that get annoying early. thats my wakeup
10 is not early
It's earlier than times that are later
All birds are robots with cameras designed to facilitate mass surveillance on the population at large
Wake up sheeple
I used to get up at 09-11 and to bed at 02-03, I prefer my current pattern
@unreal orbit that sounds like TAN talk

I sleep very bad. using a sleep tracker with wrist band and sonar, and the whole night I wake up every 10-15 minutes
yeah insomnia sucks. can use 3-4 hours to fall asleep, and when I do I cant stay asleep
so horrible tired most of the day
Im getting used to it now. not a large watch, just a samsung active
and using sleep for android where the sonar works very well on the night stand
I just wish the app got mqtt so I could integrate it with HA for better control over fading lights in the morning etc
@late gate , you might look into getting tested for sleep apnea
Oh crap. A ๐ฉ storm is possible on its way to the #the-water-cooler ๐คฃ
nah, not worth it
There's bound to be folks in #cameras-archived who have
Thanks iโll try it there!
@green inlet I have gone through cancer when I was 30 and after that life is not the same. Always exhausted, pain, sleep problems etc. After cancer you go with invisible problems that is hard to diagnose
BEEEEEEES
I think he read the room perfectly
I took the plunge and updated the bios on my graphics card hope for the best
I have this issue where the dp monitor doesnt start sometimes, so hoped it would be fixed with the bios update
also physx got enabled with the update so I guess it did some good
Anyone here have a synology nas?
I'm looking to buy a second-hand synology and just trying to find out if there's anything I should look out for. It costs like 1/4 the price to get an old one off ebay vs a new one
You're more likely to get chastised for using consumer-grade hardware here

Thanks CIA.
Woot got sonoff S31 flashed with tasmota. Now I can see my homelab's exact power usage:
@north ether fan of synology products been using for a long time.
@rain swift consumer adjacent
@rain swift it really does not matter IMHO. If it works for you, it is what it is!
no one's ever confused asas with being good
Netgate hardware is not consumer grade in the normal sense
It comes with support, heightened warranties, and so on
still plagued with a junk os just like any other consumer router
sure, easy fix, ๐ฎ
In reality its just a net appliance
Also I dont consider FreeBSD a junk OS ๐ฆ
