Like just before they learn how to read and write. Moving pictures, next best thing.
🤣
well once in awhile i could see ...everytime ....? good example above btw
They gotta express one way or the other. LMAO.
so your saying we are limiting free speech 🤣
Yep don't wanna do that to preschoolers
Vas are you saying you need a...safe space from emoji? ❄️
true ....well this old man is going to bed ....did 15 hours today and got to go back in at 0300 hrs
18 hours tomm prolly
8 hour meeting ....wth ....

What kind?
Death valley got up to 128 F today
fuck that

lol, "enail"
only when I breath
O
I
Damn it's only Tuesday and had too many testing crap.
Wut?
^
It's only Tuesday and your brain is scrambled
non scrambled eggs
blubblubblub
6 x 25oz is little too much I guess 🤔
Man Dad used to always drink beer and tomato juice. Is that what those are @tidal bronze
is that what that is?
old rednecks used to come into the bar and order "redbuds" which was beer and tomato juice
Helps settle your stomach.
or "red beer" or "red eye" actually
https://www.thespruceeats.com/red-beer-for-brunch-759786 complicated recipe
I had a guy that would come in and order a red beer, pretzels, eat the pretzels, and then pour the salt in his beer
I thought michelada was beer and a margarita
poor tequila
@green inlet didn't want to let you down. All by myself. 2 ft down 😆
what is that
Nice....how long did it take? Did you beat your chest 🤣
smart rock?
I've known I like IPAs for a long time now, but I specifically like double IPAs
Scream FUCK Yea. Really loud
Nature's butt plug @night zodiac
nice.
👍🏻
@night zodiac buriel subwoofer
Butter? I hardly know her!
Liquor?
It's called the ground when you're outside
Yep outdoor subwoofer
And no such thing as too much bass
are you my neighbor?
Trust me it's too much base than I expected. Running a crossover next week. The entire backyard vibrates with 2
Isn’t that what volume is for?
remember how many worms there used to be as a kid?
so little worms these days
it'd rain and there would be worms all over the sidewalk
Damn, too late. Tried to get a “that’s what she said” in
LMAO.

what in tarnation
There truly needs to be a “that’s what she said” emoji
it better fucking work
Good lord quad
You should play whale noises at night

Lol. Best is the purge mp3 at night. 😜
If I were to want to solder 4 momentary relays into a dumb device to make it smart, would anyone suggest anything?
for quicknessssss
I've googled some options, just wondering if any of y'all have experience
A soldering iron

You guys don’t use a soldering iron to solder?
@green inlet this one with a pineapple twist.
Do you get those at the grocery store?
Total wine
pineapple
clamato
I feel@like they ain’t low carb
Shit so good no counting on this.
turn the can and take a pic
I wonder if I could find them over here
💯
inspired by fruit cart vendors, we made flavored beer
Going to look in the grocery store. Did you ever get your brown cheese?
I think week out.
Pretty sure both brown cheese and curry banana pizza were good for the weight loss if you know what I mean
🚽
Oh crap, total wine is a store ?
Yep.
I think we have one here
Is that your home? It looks pretty.
Yes. Thank you.
Auh yes, by the Home Depot
Are those irises?
One is mango and one is pineapple
I have no clue. Lol. Got all over the place. @night zodiac
I think they are. They vary quite a bit.
My aunt has an iris farm and I have replanted a fuck ton of them.
You'll want to dig them up, break apart the bulbs, and replant them every few years
😛
@green inlet get this one too. Very close to authentic
cut the roots a bit to make them go down, cut the leaf so the small roots aren't supporting a big leaf, ezzz
brb, food
Enchilada time 👍
Ok, I screen shot’ed all of them
You will love em. Make sure you chill the shit out of it. Get the chelada spice bottles if you want to pour in to a glass. Makes it even better.
Salsa verde, nice 👍
I’ll prob add vodka to it 😎
Tomotillo
@green inlet you gotta pickup rum and ginger.
To those it may concern, old trapper peppered beef jerky is way better than Jack links peppered
I disagree.

Dinner is almost ready.
Jack links is too sweet now that I've tried old trapper
Maybe later tonight 
Ah ha ha ha
Haven't decided if I'm gonna get a dehydrator or not
I wouldn't really save much money if any making it myself
Do you have a Komodo?
I don't know what that is so I'm guessing not heh
Smoke em
I don't have a smoker
How's the hot and spicy?

I'm not a fan of spicy jerky. I like really spicy food but I don't want to gnaw on anything spicy for that long
Same with my fiancee 
Lol
You guys should try bricktown
Can't help myself just like you with emojis
@scenic radish listening to this and emojis just ruin my mood.
When ever YOU post emojis my phone makes different sounds. @scenic radish
that meme never gets old....
Post one that shakes. Let me test this bass
There you go 125hz all the way.
That looks like a result of an eggplant misbehaved with cayenne pepper.

First time I’ve seen that purple pepper like that
I mixed the habaneros sauce from a Mexican place into hummus and made it a super spicy one! Now I can’t have enough of it.
Maybe I should add some spice to my Grand Sauce ™️
Throw away the jerky and getcho some boiled peanuts.
Did you check stock ? @green inlet
I am in my birthday suit in bed 🤣
LMAO. Cool.

But I have 4 different kinds of alcohol to get now
@green inlet you into white claw?
Ehhh....wife drinks it. Every once in a while. I like the corona ones
I've been drinking whiskey lately
Clementine and mango rocks.
I tasted some yummy stuff and keep getting it
She drinks the black cherry but went through a mango kick for a while
Beer and spiked stuff is only for summer usually I am a single malt kinda guy
Beer all the time for me
Oooooo
Nopes for me. Need tons of it to make up whiskey intake.
Your what hurts?
Everything

@night zodiac if you are getting into whiskey / single malt get some whiskey stones
What should I install on my server next
I need to set up a VPN to use my home dns while I am away
Don't go far
Currently it's running home assistant, wireguard and OpenVPN, cloud9 IDE (mainly for home assistant), and gotify
You have to use WireGuard
what
Yep WG is a must
Yes.. you can’t use openvpn, l2tp etc
yeah, I currently use wireguard for everything VPN wise
Massive downtime during renegotiating sessions
But why do you need your home dns? Adblocking?
Some public networks block wireguard which is why I also have openvpn
Content blocker?
@scenic radish what ?
Wireguard doesn't obfuscate itself like openvpn does
So it's easy to see it's an anonymizer and block it
From what I've read at least
Never had issues. Drove to TN recently worked with every public wifi.
Yah... that’s true. My DPI system would recognize it
I've had issues before
And I block VPNs on my guest wifi :p
I would say 30 airports lounges no issues yet.

@brisk glen I don't really need it. I already have dns over https on my phone with adguard doing blocking but I'd just rather go through my other stuffs
I am done testing bass @scenic radish

Chill step. ..... It's 2020
It's $CURRENT_YEAR
lol, the bass in that song is just wild
looks at IoT
So you jive to blackmill @wet pilot 😆
Hah yup
Right on. 👍
I just use the content blocker safari plugin with AdGuard pro
Safari? What's that ?
PWA, what's that
@tidal bronze https://www.di.fm/chillstep
Progressive Web App
@tidal bronze that thing all iPhones use
@wet pilot thanks do you have public spotify playlists?
Or wkwebkit views
@brisk glen O no clue what that stuff is.
How is the playlist generation ?
Curated
I love how ms is calling edge faster than chrome when it is chrome
Basically radio stations without the jockies
@brisk glen it's a fork, they added some of their own stuff
They back ported some of their changes to chromium and chrome will benefit soon
It shows how bad google is
I am starting like http://playlistminer.playlistmachinery.com/
Eh, chromium is open source
That's better for everyone
@wet pilot DI is pretty cool. Thanks for the link
It's pretty great
They have affiliates for other genres too
rockradio.com being another that I use a lot
Mellow chill beats. 434 tracks. Interesting
Even spotify has few chill step playlists. I usually use playlist generators to extend them.
7/mo gives you no commercials and higher bitrates on all of them
CC casting ?
Yup
👍
Nice
Hard to find good chill step on any service. Dub step jumps in most of the time.
Haven't had that problem with this service
Will test it and update. Excited. New names.
With the paid service you can get up to 320 mp3 and the Android app lets you pick different rates for wifi vs mobile
320 is plenty.
Default for mobile is 64k AAC-HE
phnx, I love android auto with spotify + gmaps working nicely
everything is happy
yay, I found my solder wick I was looking for.
now where is my flux
hiding where you least expect...
New to HA showing off my solar page. Am I ok to upload here?
The community Forums are usually a better place for that
If you want a discussion at least
Ok will upload there. Thanks.
And just showing off. Not looking for a discussion about it.
Solar Stats Page
some guy on a forum I visit for lawn care stuff who's NOT a mechanic is posting about buying a toolbox "for his stuff"
he's talking about buying a used Snap-On box for TWO GRAND
Why
Why would you subject yourself to a broken bank for a Snap-On toolbox. We see the truck run around here in West TX all the time and we laugh and tell them to keep running. They don't come around enough to replace half the tools we snap in half out here.
Even if you make a living on it you still don't need snapon
someone posted the price for a new one and it's SEVENTY-FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS
For a box with drawers on wheels
I bought a Kobalt box off of Craigslist for lik3 $300
And thats warrantied by Lowes
I wait until scratch and dent. But I did snag a Milwaukee set the packout to keep all my IT stuff in. Its a lifesaver as of late.
that thing pissed the movers off 🙂
Is that the one with the speaker system in the top?
Heh
no, just the catchall area
AH
It has wheels though 😛
not meant for off-road
Fair
Or is it
movers weren't happy when I said "nah, that goes in the basement"
at least it's a daylight basement
@last dirge time to make that brushless
Lol yep.
HA
Well tested my alarm system this morning, everything is broken, wrong polarity, wrong coloured wires, incorrect voltage, incorrect firmware and patch cable not working.
I put it all behind my server which is mounted to wall, so at this stage I'm thinking I rewire from roof and use to multimeter to guess wires
I guess this is what testing is for
At least you have something. I am doing a retail location that built...and didnt do any kind of forethought into a security system.
my older, not built anywhere near as well house has sensors on every single door
and every single window on the bottom floor
and the windows are all homerun, not chained
new house has zero window sensors
How often do you get robbed?
Have you considered Robot Vaccum Cleaners with PIr sensors and Guns?
Activate when you leave your house any robbers are dealt with effectively
I have only been robbed in person never at home
claymore? no nukes?

No Nukes. The goal is that you want it to go off. His buddies breaking in with him will be too traumatized to keep stealing and will forever be haunted by the memory of watching Bob be blown up into a million smelly shish-kebabs.
I mean..the clean up is a mess.
that's why it's a robot vacuum, duh
Are these normally 12VDC
I think that might be my issue
I just assumed 12VDC
I'm going to rip the antitamper screws out and check myself
Oh god it has so many spiders
Alarm 8 ohm 10 watt Horn Speaker -its AC not DC
I guess a tone is generated from the Panel
a simple relay won't work here
Raspberrypi with Spotify connect plugin -> Yamaha RX-V685 Receiver, to a mix of Klipsch rock speakers, Yamaha in ceiling and proficient loudspeakers
All outdoor stuff
Raspberry Pi = ha
Time to invest in a rack 👍 I'm jealous
@rare condor did you set off your alarm
@torpid spire: I need to mount my crappy upfiring Atmos speakers on my wall to chuck them in height configuration before PS5 comes out. Gotta build a backboard for them though to pull them out from the wall a little.
Is there anyone here that has Fibaro Motion Sensors?
Probably a lot of people over at #zwave-archived
👍
Today Norway is opening up for travel abroad and tourists coming in
It's gonna be an.... Interesting day in the news
So I set up a second homeassistant instance exclusively for discovery/mDNS
It works very well
# Homeassistant Remote
remote_homeassistant:
instances:
- host: remotehomeassistant.domain.tld
port: 8123
access_token: !env_var REMOTE_HA_ACCESS_TOKEN
verify_ssl: false
Our state is still locked down
People are still trying to get out of the infected states
Yes, yes we are
@hushed basalt Nope, it took me awhile to figure out but the PIR sensors had 330k Resistors wired inside them, had an anti tamper switch which was not engaged and many of the sensors were windows and door sensors, once I fixed that I realised the Alarm was just a 10 watt 8 ohm speaker, so the DC signal did nothing, replaced with Piezo Screamer and connected all up this arvo. Now its all working
@clear ferry just don't allow americans in and you'll have much better chances
There's very few wearing masks here, hopefully it affects those not wearing masks first
We don't , I don't think any European countries do
no need for masks in nordic countries where personal space means around 3 meters
at least*
@rare condor yeah EOL resistors is pretty common for PIRs
I probs should have done it that way I soldered them at the connection.
I believe it's for tampering protection
closed circuit = alarm, open circuit = alarm, pulled up voltage = OK

@rare condor what sort of automations have you got based off your PV generation
P.S. ducted A/C is the worst
does someone have an idea how to get the availability of a person from MS Teams into Home Assistant? i want to install a light (ON AIR) over my HomeOffice-door, to indicate for my family if I am in a Call or not
@hushed basalt Siemens PLC controlling Heated Towel Rail and Resistive booster loads. Otherwise portable heaters on plug sockets (we have ducted gas and it sucks) but we can't migrate to Split Systems due to this not being our forever house.
I'd also suggest this is #integrations-archived 😉
Like investment is not there.
This. I want to post silly memes here but it would stop the flow of the discussion
@clever mortar yes that would be nice. but the only thing i can find is a integration to post to MS Teams
NO HOME ASSISTANT SUPPORT HERE (look at the other channels for that). NO POLITICS OR RELIGION!
BE CIVIL to one another or get BANNED permanently.
So, #integrations-archived is for connecting HA to things
You want help connecting HA to Teams... that's the place to ask
ah thanks :👍

There's no hope
this is a legitimate question because i'm actually curious... why are those who are following the guidelines surrounding COVID sheep?
or am i misunderstanding who it is you're calling that @rain swift
I'm hoping they're calling the anti-maskers 🐑
oh i didn't watch the video either, i'm assuming it's a parody
And, I'm not that sure it's a paradoy
I've met folks here who believe that 5G causes COVID, and that masks suffocate you
i saw some stuff about people burning down 5G towers
some people need to learn correlation vs causation
we've had multiple knives pulled on people due to mask mandate
one 43 yo stabbed a 77 yo after he was confronted
that 43 yo then attacked the officer responding, and they shot and killed him
wtf...
Have you tried turning your country off and on again
relatively local
i saw some stuff about people burning down 5G towers
@scenic radish hides the matches
@scenic radish just because it's california we are not completely free of idiots. 😜 Huntington Beach is not progressive by any means. Lol
they grow produce in sand.. nothing else needs to be said
according to wikipedia, yes:
A sandwich is a food typically consisting of vegetables, sliced cheese or meat, placed on or between slices of bread, or more generally any dish wherein bread serves as a container or wrapper for another food type.
or more generally any dish wherein bread serves as a container or wrapper for another food type.
on would mean one slice of bread too though 😉
fake news
Also, if a Philly Cheesesteak is a sandwich, so is a hotdog

I refuse to believe Philly Cheesesteak is a thing. It looks too good to not have landed here
It is good
Teddi likes only brown cheese
We do our own ones fairly regularly, because they're just so yummy
how does one not like cheese
same reason others don't like black licorice
they are wrong?
lol
I have a friend who loves cheese, and is lactose intolerant...
can't stand cheese
except mozzarella, i guess, because i like pizza
the smell alone is enough to push me away from cheese
Haha, you're like me when I was a kid. Hated tomatoes, loved pizza
Grúyere FWIW
i mean, tomato sauce has other ingredients
it shouldn't

like proper italian pizza sauce is just crushed marzanos I think
I eat all kinds of cheese, blue cheese is not my fav. Some hard cheeses are great
anyway, HOW DO YOU NOT LIKE CHEESE???????????????? is the bane of my existence
I like cheese
I can get not liking blue cheese, but there's so many different ones to love
Yup
It’s amazing how quickly the conversation went from hotdog to cheese. It took 5 seconds.
it's amazing how quickly the conversation went from hotdog to judging me for not liking cheese


hotdog is a hoagie

also, cheese is delicious
I love cheese

Teddy clearly needs therapy for this unfounded cheese hate
And there are billions of us BILLIONS
"say cheese" "I hate you and cheese"
Brb, going to IKEA to buy a @last plaza
I'm gonna send @scenic radish fifteen different Norwegian cheeses

How do I sign up for this?

Atx, I hate cheese. Please send.

guys i've made a huge mistake. i selected a range of some 100,000+ cells in an excel worksheet and clicked "trace precendents"
So every person on Tinder wants me to use TikTok, anyone young enough to use it?
🤢

wtf no.
Lol

Tinder and tiktok don't seem like there is much overlap
@rare condor you are young enough to use it
Doesn't
Age wise yes, but my pessimistic levels are closer to that of a 50 year old man drinking vodka alone
Like I see stupid people dancing and I'm like, well that wasted my life
Friends are like laughing
Make a tiktok channel of you drinking vodka alone
Tiktok is being banned in a lot of countries anyway
Norwegian government and military have denied users installing
Now ban tencent all together
Your just saying that because your not a CCP agent like me 😛
Ban him too
I learnt way more than I should when I worked in Beijing
Back in 2015, was meant to be an IoT study tour, alcohol with ex military is a bad combo.
Anyway I want to go back to Shenzhen one day, twitter has limited that possibility
Amazing
Beautiful
I have yet to crawl out of bed
Need to roll down window in future
That will be noisy in 100kmph
Make her hair crazy
My girl rolls her eyes into the back of her hair if I roll down windows
Mess up her hair
Of her head
He's an anti-mask nubjub. Ignore him.
And, heck, follow the various scientific studies that have shown they work
yes
Yes
no, I do not go to restaurants
because I have to go out
do you wear a seatbelt while driving?
you're NOT just risking killing yourself you absolute moron
I don't unknowingly get run into by someone in my car and then run over my grandma later
MUH RIGHTS
bro, you're a selfish prick
🛑
@rain swift you can be shedding this thing by the boatloads and not be aware of it
Masks aren't about you feeling ill or how you feel about masks.
Yeah, you have a right to have unprotected sex with someone who is HIV positive. It would be incredibly irresponsible.
I never tasted Brown Cheese. Does it taste like normal cheese? What do you eat it with?
Ok everyone thinks I am weird I don't use snapchat, post to Instagram daily and use tiktoc. I need to get cooler, so going to start using these and stop spending time working on IoT projects and HASS refinement 😛
No.
Sounds like incompatible people anyways
You better off finding a geek girl friend. No point in going to tiktok @rare condor
Never used it. Never needed
My girl isn't very impressed when I show her home assistant but social media is not big for either of us
Yeah but its hard to find geeky gf who likes clubbing and gaming etc,
My wife is doing her master's in cyber security and knows *nix does that count?
Well you'd probably find them clubbing or at game events
Try harder 😉
usually very different people, also comes to introverted / extroverted
Tinder is weird to me. It didn't exist when I was single.
I feel like I would only find people that aren't my vibes. I don't like texting and shit
I hate texting
I would never go on dates if the wife died, just go solo for the rest of my life I think

good boi
Same and I am not married
Or, I'd marry @scenic radish
probably the same. Especially now with young child
So we could eat cheese together
Just been with her for 10 years
CHEESEBROS
We've been together for 20 years this winter
Dangerously cheesey
Ok Tim Tam time

I mean that sincerely but saying congrats sounds like I'm being a dick sorta
Congrats is weird
Congratulations you son of a gun
You are a dick
aren't we all
Brown cheese dick
But I still love you
What is brown cheese

according to urban dictionary... ohh god.
Let me google
That double line with dick love you failed hard because of poor internet
you really want to put that in there
We need ~lmudtfy command.
Do you guys use yeet?
It is regarded as one of the country's most iconic foodstuffs, and is considered an important part of Norwegian gastronomical and cultural identity and heritage.[1]
Or yi?
What the hell is yeet?
you are old
🤓
Therefore, brunost is not technically cheese, and it does not taste like cheese

@clear ferry pushin 50
Hi Atxbyea, I hope this letter finds you well in these troubling times. I have waned on my fixation with home Assistant/Smart Homing in recent months and come here very infrequently these days. Though I am unfortuantely quite alive at this moment.
These guys are eating the cheese leftovers and calling it cheese
@valid halo wooooooooo
I'm glad
I just browsed backwards and saw your nick and went, wait, is he dead?

I had a lot of friends go on IRC 😦
It weird seeing these people IRL on the news and seeing the person you speak to everyday IRL at the saddest time.
I was on irc from 1995 to 2015, but it just died sadly
FREENODE is alive and well
And since I don't have Facebook, I don't keep up with people
I am only on one private irc server these days
I hang out in ##electronics a lot
Up until a few years ago I was always in nodejs or whatever it is on freenode
and relevant linux australia rooms
I'm still on a private server with old friends though for many years now
I wrote irc parsing in vb6 when I was young, lol
and I like just post awful code and they are like wtf that's terrible here is a pastebin of better code
Messed with webasm at all?
It is amazing when you ban someone, it deletes all their messages permanently and also their reactions and emojis.
It’s like the user never existed - poof!
😂
Does it? It used to ask if you wanted to wipe their history
Very useful for spam bots
I hate that blocking individual users. It still shows that it blocked a message and makes you peek into the message 😆
Not really blocking at that point.
yeah, there should be an "I don't care" option

Same skal
It should be more like “ignore” option
Too fucking curious
MASKS TRAP TOXINS
Nice little drive last week
@night zodiac I enjoy my embedded microchip
@young sigil what the hell is that vehicle?
Hagglunds
it's tracked?
oooh, cycloidal drives
Wake up sherple
During operation, oil is pumped into a connection block, which in turn distributes it to the cylinder block and pistons. This causes the pistons to act against the cam ring, producing a momentum that makes the shaft rotate smoothly.
Where the fuck are you
in a desert
I see that
Yeah driest place on earth. Mawson Antarctica.
ooh, the biggest desert
Yall got 5g?
2G
the penguins wear the transmitters
Man, that's wild looking.
mobile hotspots, yo
No covid here.
Pretty serious quarantine being organised for next year's crew.
Haxxa has too
Wild
He worked in China too. He gets around.
What does the home assistant panel look like in antarctica
Sunny for the next 22 hours
Home assistant is still at home, 5000km and 0.6s away
what sorts of experiments are you doing there?
Yeah 1.2s round trip. I accidentally invited Robbie to the ios channel a while ago because the pop-up box hadn't finished loading and put him right under the mouse cursor as I clicked it. Confused him for a bit.
ARPANSA radionucleotide monitoring (test ban treaty), Magnetic obs for Geoscience Australia, Testing some GPS tide gauge calibration.
Also automatic penguin colony monitoring cameras. The bane of my life. Fucking freezing servicing them.
are you sick of having to cut open Tauntauns to sleep inside them?
Nah, I'm used to the smell now.
What about penguin shit.
Penguins are wild.
No control of their asshole like all birds, all huddled up shitting on their feet
I guess I should start my day. Log into slack and such
Yeah they're great projectile poopers. We actually visited a colony on that trip.
Males with eggs waiting for the return of the females.
Macaroni?
Emperor
Nvm, they look too big
Yeah
Neat
What's the farthest yall go away from camp?
Or where you sleep normally
That was a 90km trip. Furthest I've been is a couple of hundred kms.
Took everything and the kitchen sink. No rescue coming. Seriously we took a Hagglunds and a Nodwell loaded to the gunwales. The division is in the build stage of equipment for much much longer traverses into the interior for a "million year ice core"
I made it out of my bed. not quite the 90km trip you made.
they have a 3000 meter drill?
that's big
Have you set up a pi hole for the Hagglunds?
how does that work if the earth is only 6000 years old tho?
you wouldn't say that to my face
I'm joking
please don't take me seriously
I don't want to see any of you in person
I'm only an electronics technician Brian. You'd have to ask one of the scientists.
And withstand their withering look of disgust.
How many PHDs are surrounding you right now?
blink twice if you're okay
I figure at least one PHD has to be there
maybe some nerd writing his thesis on penguin nitrous
None. They nearly all go home for the winter. Only the tradies stay behind to keep the station running.
ahhh
there must be a lot of pressure on the HVAC guy
my 15 mi flora sensors will be here in 7 days
yay
Heating is hydronic from the diesel generator cooling water.
dumb question. my HACS has a yellow progress line on it and it wont let me download/update any integrations. Should i wait ?
tom, very neat.
I have no idea what you should do but is there anything fun in your logs?
@frail adder #integrations-archived (or the HACS discord server)
is it a pain to reissue?
o.O
I've been able to get away with letsencrypt for a few years now at least
nothing I use really requires anything fancy
damn wildcard certs, you expensive
I thought they capped certs at 2 years
cloudflare has free wildcard certs
hi home assistant people. I learning about getting into home automation. Do I need a "Smart Hub" in order for home assistant to communicate with Zigbee and ZWave devices? A lot of these "Smart Hubs" appear to do the same functionality as home assistant, which is confusing me
cLoUdFlArE hAs FrEe WiLdCaRd CeRtS

@hearty crow you just need a radio that can communicate those protocols
see #zigbee-archived and #zwave-archived for more
#hardware-archived is your spot
ok cool, thank you
or you can go to either of those channels
muh cloud doe
yeah, looks like they made it a rule to cap ssl to 2 years since the last time you probably got yours, haha
certs, that is
@last dirge wut do you mean?
do I have to host my domain with them?
no
same same
but different
ORLY
yup
If it is a weird one like .dev, I'll leave it on namecheap but if I can transfer (after time limits and such) I move it to cloudflare
but you can leave your domain on whatever you have and just use CF nameservers
it's at godaddy now
are you feeling okay?
I'm lazy, okay?
godaddy is the devil
you need to install an origin cert on your server, whether one of cloudflare's free ones or self-signed
in order to use cloudflare's free SSL cert
I love that cloudflare can enforce certs for you between them and your server
their "Full" option or whatever
yeah. i use full (strict)
same same
installed a 15-year cloudflare origin cert
before march of 2018?
origin cert shouldn't matter AFAIK since that's only for connecting between cloudflare and your server
good, i have you fooled. neither am i
https://share.busheezy.dev/VJEy2p.png strict for life
how do I get the cert?
points to Tediore
yep, that's the edge certificate that you don't need to worry about
HMMMMMM
go to origin server to generate the origin cert
INTERESTING
they have very concise instructions for transferring from godaddy if you ever get the itch https://developers.cloudflare.com/registrar/transfer-instructions/godaddy/
A collection of documentation for Cloudflare products.
I always forget how to bundle this stuff
I'm just using whatever SSL server that's built into hass
oh, the certs and such
you generate an origin cert and private key and can point home assistant to those
x509 key bundle?
or NGINX, or whatever
Sometimes, I wake up and there are no Home Assistant updates...
how does that work with hairpin nat?
yay, it's broken
BROKE AF
looks like it's fine off of my network
on my network, not so much
so something with the hairpin, hrmm
my google-foo says to ping @scenic radish and blame him


Hi does anybody know the next release date? Is it next Wednesday?
Does anybody know what can be expected? 😊
#teleported
Take all those WAN ports, tape over them, don't use them 😉
lol you mean physically
Yup
ehh...okay i got a problem then
eureka! that makes sense okay..
wait, i have another issue lol..
lol there are 3 devices connected on router 2
so modem ->router 1, PI1, phone modem
router 1 ->router 2
router 2 ->main computer, PI2, PS4
Because routers are cheaper than switches?
Are they?
🤷
That does not make any sense
You easily get a 8/16p 1G unmanaged switch way cheaper than any router
lol i didnt really have a choice in the matter...everything was too far in my house
50m CAT5 cables exist 😉
so....2 routers and a modem #facepalm
Switches are cheap - £10 for a decent cheap one, half that for a "works" cheap one
yeah ik. thats what i WANTED to do...but noooooo longer wires, wires all over the house ETC
Flat CAT6 and micro-trunking 😉
That's what I did, runs at the top of the skirting board, nobody notices
I think once i gain my parents respect for my level of "technology" they will take better suggestions
Back in the day I used ethernet over powergrid adapter for longer distances inside where I was not allowed to do cables, not the best but it worked fine
"technology" aka knowing a little bit and asking the discord geniuses for help with everything else ll
*lol
Modern powerline stuff is really good actually
hmm...
Not Gbit capable, but quite enough for normal use
Mine caped out around 450
450 is more then enough for automation
There's newer stuff that goes faster now
was enough for CS:GO
okay....so at this point...what are my options on tryna weed through these routers
My dad was usually the first one to drill a hole between the first and second floor, any time we moved.
If you rent that is usually not an option
- Don't use the WAN ports - you've run the cables already anyway
- Ditch the cables, go Powerline
Yeah, I asked my landlord if he minded if I put some holes in here and he was fine with it luckily.
if i dont use wan ports. what am i gonna do about multiple devices on router 2 tho
thats my issue
they are through the floor into the crawl space though, nice and hidden
wait now im confused
lol
can i rewind for 2 seconds.
okay what do you mean by not use the wan ports?
WAN - one network
LAN - another network
Go back further, do you know what an ethernet switch is?
Do you know how networks work?
yes vill and yes tinker
Then you should know this 😉
subnets still confuse me a little but ive waaay outta practice apparently
what routers are we using, curious
That's not really relevant to the problem at hand
If you connect the router's WAN port then you're separating off all the devices on that router from the rest of the network
MODEM LAN <--- Net 1 ---> WAN ROUTER1 LAN <-- Net 2 --> WAN ROUTER2 LAN <-- Net 3 -->
If you connect the LAN ports then it's one big network, as the routers are basically switches
MODEM LAN <--- Net 1 ---> ROUTER1
|-----> ROUTER2
|--- all your devices
idk whats not clicking in my head. I understand the explanation but dont understand the actual change i need to make
I = in, O = out
nvm, I don't know anything about apples
LOL!!
atx, fun phone typing adventure
lol..yes and im really slow right now
If you can answer him without getting car-sick, I'll give you $5
lol
But will you pay the distracted driving fine?
devices on the routers are saying that router 1 is a banana, and router 2 is a orange
i need the devices to say that EVERYTHING is an apple.
yes, if you use your WAN port on router 2 as an input instead of your LAN port, it will VLAN them and they won't see each other
that's my experience with consumer routers anyways
"VLAN"
okay so how do i make that change. do i change something in the modems or in the routers?
im assuming routers.
you unplug it from one port and plug it into the other
It is, pretty much, that mind blowingly simple
I gave you a beautiful fucking graphic
Disabling the DHCP server on any slave routers is a good step too
so if i disable DHCP though..what would happen to devices connected to router 2
