I know that but I don't want multiple hubs

hushed basalt
#

One downside with zigbee is your coordinator module is a massive point of failure

#

Like with esp stuff if you have multiple wifi APs you're covered

scenic radish
#

But isn't that what home assistant is for? Bringing everything together?

rare condor
#

Yep and mine has also failed recently when micro sd card died in orange pi

hushed basalt
#

I'm not sure if I'd put my mum on zigbee stuff since she's 5 hours away

thick dragon
#

That's why I like sticking with Hue directly though. Redundancy.

scenic radish
#

I understand both sides though. I prefer keeping my lighting system separate from my server

thick dragon
#

Everything still works if either CC2531 craps itself or HA craps itself.

rare condor
#

yeah only do it if using something like hue hub

light trout
#

What model of "mom" did you get? Mine does not have zigbee๐Ÿค”

hushed basalt
#

My zigbee2mqtt docker volume is mounted on nfs but the docker logs themselves might burn out my sd card

#

I need to put the logs to a ram filesystem or disable them completely

rare condor
#

I need to start using NFS volumes for embedded appliances

hushed basalt
#

NFS is a pig

#

I don't understand it very well. It's very archaic

scenic radish
rare condor
#

Its better than burning SD cards

hushed basalt
#

It's just hard to set up securely

scenic radish
hushed basalt
#

Like my nfs mounts are completely open atm

#

Anyone on the lan could access them read write

scenic radish
#

Ugh you guys are talking about stuff I don't know again

rare condor
#

damn root and password didn't work for port 22 using badtelcos ip

hushed basalt
#

Network file system

#

Basically linux file sharing

#

No password ssh ftw

rare condor
#

My elite hazor skills are not enough

hushed basalt
#

Although managing ssh keypairs is a pita at scale

rare condor
#

tbh internally my network is pretty insecure, one day I will use key auth

#

I just started using keys

#

and Openssh with 8.2 with Yubikey

hushed basalt
#

For your embedded stuff, I would try to have no transactional data on the device if possible, and just push/pull directly

scenic radish
#

I've been using keys for a long time now, I'd never look back

hushed basalt
#

So mqtt or whatever appropriate protocol

scenic radish
#

Key with no passphrase + short alias == quick SSH access

hushed basalt
#

Renegade

#

I just put the details in my config

#

So I can go ssh server1 TAB

#

And username, port, identify file etc are all handled

rare condor
#

I was thinking of using nRemoteNG and managing all my ssh connections that way

scenic radish
#

Ooo neato telco

rare condor
#

SSH Config is best way

#

but are you running linux then?

#

or WSL?

scenic radish
#

Who?

#

Telco?

wet pilot
#

Ssh config ftw

rare condor
#

any rando who wants to chat with me ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

hushed basalt
#

Yes i use wsl

#

Windows has ssh but it's crap

rare condor
#

I just moved to WSL2 today

scenic radish
#

I use Linux

hushed basalt
#

Just use wsl2 and ubuntu 18.04

scenic radish
#

Debian specifically

rare condor
#

meh get with the time 20.04

hushed basalt
#

It didn't work in some edge cases for me

scenic radish
#

Even for my desktop, because I'm a masochist

rare condor
#

lol half my software is broken because Python 3.8 is barely supported by half the software I use

#

Debian stable on desktop?

hushed basalt
#

I'm surprised half your software isn't python 2.6

wet pilot
#

Yeah 3.8 is still risky unfortunately

scenic radish
#

Pffh I guess I'm not a good enough random huh haxxa

hushed basalt
#

Debian desktop, ew

scenic radish
wet pilot
#

Been sticking with 3.7

#

I kinda want to try the walrus operator though

hushed basalt
#

I might try elementaryOS one day

#

But it's a non value adding activity to me

wet pilot
#

Should try TempleOS in a vm

rare condor
#

Ubuntu 20.04 uses Pyhton 3.8 by default Deluge (my fav torrent client) is broken out of the box

hushed basalt
#

I just want a simple desktop that doesn't get in my way

scenic radish
#

Debian?

rare condor
#

@scenic radish the debian question was aimed at u/

wet pilot
#

Gentoo

hushed basalt
#

I don't want to spend 2 weekends tweaking it to get things working

scenic radish
#

Yeah Debian stable on desktop @rare condor

rare condor
#

@wet pilot watching linus video on temple os in bg

hushed basalt
#

Or making a task bar hide

scenic radish
#

It's a 10-year-old laptop so I wanted a lightweight distro and I'm already familiar with it

rare condor
#

@scenic radish I like new flashy stuff, normally Fedora or Ubuntu (non-lTS), used Arch when I was running unreleased Dell XPS

wet pilot
#

Arch was fun once

hushed basalt
#

TempleOS makes me upset

rare condor
#

But all PLC stuff is win only so yeah windows 10

scenic radish
#

Heh, I don't use my desktop for much so I just stick with debian

rare condor
#

Linux in my dreams

hushed basalt
#

Like I'm physically unsettled

wet pilot
#

I usually do fedora workstation these days

rare condor
#

@hushed basalt y

scenic radish
#

Why telco

rare condor
#

hushed basalt
#

I'm not sure

rare condor
#

hushed basalt
#

It just makes me anxious

rare condor
#

scenic radish
rare condor
#

So anyone using Yubikey?

#

Or am I a werido

scenic radish
wet pilot
#

I use one

rare condor
#

well the former statement is true anyway

#

I just got one, I find SSH management PITA

wet pilot
#

LastPass, Google, and GitHub

rare condor
#

Lastpass costs money with yubikey :/

#

and uses OTP

#

and relies on Yubikey servers

scenic radish
hushed basalt
#

@clear ferry loves his yubikey

#

Wears it around his neck like jewellery

rare condor
#

Its mainly because math hurts my brain

#

My date yesterday was talking about stats and I was in pain.

scenic radish
#

@rare condor monkaKiss

rare condor
#

Time to do stuff

scenic radish
hushed basalt
#

Did you get your ssh working

#

ssh-copy-id is what you want btw

rare condor
#

Yes but I don't like how it works atm

#

yeah but that only works if passwd auth is enabled

hushed basalt
#

At first yes

rare condor
#

or you already have an established key

#

So I had new machines which I generated SSH keys for

hushed basalt
#

Generally what happens in the real world is people use cloudinit or similar to put an authorised key on the server at creation

rare condor
#

And then had to send the public key to my desktop and then add to authorised hosts

hushed basalt
#

Wait isn't that backwards

rare condor
#

Like Laptop (GEN KEY) -> Desktop -> Remote Server

#

Where desktop already had SSH Key

#

So it could still login

#

and use ssh-copy-id

hushed basalt
#

Yeah key management is a pain

#

PKI /CA is better

turbid stirrup
#

Well, what's mostly a pain is when every bleeding customer has a different login procedure

rare condor
#

I have like 12 different VPN softwares on my computer now

#

all garbage

#

no one uses openvpn

turbid stirrup
#

I try to automate as much as possible... But when faced with VPNs with puzzles you have to solve based on your token's output there's pretty much nothing you can do

rare condor
#

20 odd AD accounts, really painful

turbid stirrup

So much this, Haxxa

rare condor

seriously though ecdsa is not used widely anymore because its technically inferior

#

ED25519

#

way to go

hushed basalt
#

I use ed25519

#

But yeah authorised keys suck

#

Signing is the way to go

rare condor
#

Lots of hassle for home use though

#

Bastion servers, CA rotation seems a lot of work

scenic radish

Nerf bastion!

rare condor

man overwatch was so popular when I was a kid

That sucks

Next week, Kari Byron found dead

#

Will be a shame when Ghislaine Maxwell commits suicide tomorrow tinfoil

hushed basalt

She died too

#

If Ghislaine Maxwell I'd be wanting multiple redundant livestreams in my cell right now

#

And to prepare my own food

#

Kari Byron was hot till I found out she was a vegan.

She died too
@hushed basalt I could not find any corroborating evidence of this.

That's not Scottie Chapman (badtels' image is)

So many people died all of a sudden!!!

clear ferry

Oh

I thought they were the same

young sigil

Mystery solved though. Badtel just got the wrong image.

@last plaza you who are pushing 75 should be worried!

how do you pronounce Maxwell's name?

what's that module?

rare condor
#

Also installed a Din rail to mount it

#

HHC-N8I8OP Relay Controller

clear ferry
#

I'm doing the same with my alarm system with a esp32 I guess

rare condor
#

why use an ESP, this runs at 12v and has ethernet and cheaper once additional parts are used

clear ferry
#

Don't bother pulling Ethernet, I already have the esps and the esp can run off the power supply in the cabinet

rare condor
#

fair enough

last dirge
#

so the bottom is inputs?

rare condor
#

I was just glad how easy this was, I didn't even test, just wired into it and it worked

#

Bottom Inputs are Digital Inputs, top has 8 Channel Relay

#

10 Digital Inputs

do you have any PIR on it?

people in Arizona like "ooh, it's 110 here today but at 20% humidity"

Humidity?

clear ferry

Historical weather in my current location

SO one downside to that module I bought is it only works with Nodered instead of directly with HASS, so I have to run nodered for a single appliance

clear ferry
#

Oh cool, they have timelapse for every day now

tidal bronze

@last dirge BTW yesterday's market pull back was not a correction. Our gov said CA shutting down and all hell breaks

rare condor

Are you guys allowed outside atm?

I have no molex left from my PSU but 5 SATA Power adapters, I am thinking of committing hardware SIN

last dirge
#

there are SATA to 4 pin adapters

rare condor
#

I know, but everyone says not to use them for some reason

clear ferry
#

SATA to molex, I've used so many of those while @rare condor was still in diapers

rare condor
#

I think because people buy them on ebay for <$1

#

and then they catch fire

clear ferry
#

I've never heard of that happen tbh, and I managed a 6000 desktop computer farm in the mid 00s

#

With a lot of those adapters

rare condor
#

There are literally 20 reddit threads of people complaining

last dirge
#

that's the other way around

#

that's molex to SATA

rare condor
#

sure

last dirge
#

not SATA to molex

clear ferry
#

That is the other way around though, never used that much

rare condor
#

but its the same thing with female to male and vice versa, issue is cheap moulded plastic arcs

last dirge
#

eh, I'd be willing to bet that a SATA device pulls more current than a device traditionally connected with a molex

clear ferry
#

Probably, but I've shorted many cables in the last 30 years, none caught fire

rare condor

@clear ferry so has your seal of approval for use in production ?

@scenic radish you are cheap though!

tidal bronze
#

I would think the connector itself not the plastic housing. Even if the plastic housing is crap if the molex pins are crimped the right way, they should not move once plugged in.

molex are kinda jiggly

not like Deutsch connectors

@scenic radish IDK, I'm not a business guy. But I'd definitely pay to have dedicated help, if required... Right now I have an issue with cameras that I don't know how to solve

@clever mortar I did a google search for RSTP proxies and could find only ONE project for linux, and it's gotta be compiled manually.

I was considering building an ITX system for this, but where I live you can't find ITX hardware to buy

RTSP stream relay server with codec passthrough, so that no encoding will take place and low CPU will be used.

Probably a 32MB one

that was like... AMD K6 II processor

I had one of those

333MHz, I believe

I think that stick was from a pentium 3 tbh

was the pentium 3 the one that was in the cartridge?

slot A?

Both

Was both slot1 and socket

it looked cool

Pentium 2 was slot1 too

alpine ravine

@clever mortar Didn't run on my Pi. =/
I'll keep trying

#

Pentium 3s I used were socket 370

#

But they were available on Slot 1 as well

clear ferry

Only amd I've ever used were 486 models

alpine ravine
#

Pentium II was Slot1 only I guess

#

I never saw another socket for them

clear ferry
#

Yep

hollow tendon
#

remember when old-school computers had an overclock button

clear ferry
#

There were slot converters too, from socket to slot

#

@hollow tendon turbo button you mean

hollow tendon
#

Yes i couldn't remember the terminology

#

We used to use it when playing lemmings if we already had the path set up and didn't want to wait

Turbo made the computer slower though

My first Pentium 1 100MHz had a turbo button, but it no longer worked... it was a 386/486 thing

I overclocked my 486 DX2 66 to a cool 74MHz

alpine ravine

Yeah, it was a thing

It was an amd thing

Then again, amd CPUs cracked in half if you removed the cooler while they were running

They had no thermal runway protection

The CPU fan "kinda" melted too

No temp sensors on the CPU?

I had one melt my socket too

No thermal throttling at all on amd until atleast 2005 I think

scenic radish

Oh wow

clever mortar

AMD cut a few corners in the early days

Intel had it from atleast the 486

Temp sensor was a motherboard feature

it was in my original xbox so I could swap from the OE Hard drive to the hacked one

80-via cables

|| why be floppy when you can be hard? ||

my LS-120 drive came with the fancy cables

yeah, you needed those to use 7200RPM drives.

they were easy

just stick your fingernail in the insulation
