@green inlet had your name on it π€£
are those peppers?
Ohhh, nice, Bloody Mary ?
is that like a piece of ham sticking up in the back?
Yep with bacon and peppers
I love those peppers. Canβt remember there name
Banana?
pepperoncini
bloody stools must be a normal thing lol
If you are in NorCal try this place called Friends With Benedicts Mimosa House
i like my vodka with pulled pork
hell no, my body is a temple and is only graced with real liquids like beer
Temple hmmm
Vodka and pulled pork?
Both are bland π
I like zing zang without vodka
next you guys will posting a picture of a drink called the Subway Shot, where someone just blends a foot long into a glass of zima
Zima π€£
@green inlet check out the menu.
https://friendswithbenedictsinc.com/menu
You can curse me, its alright π
imagine mishearing the name of that place and asking someone for directions.."yea I am looking for this place called Friends with Big Dicks Mommas House.."
I havenβt had sausage and gravy biscuits in a long time. They are one of my favorites. I would eat anything on that menu.
Although they are doing chicken and waffles wrong. Country fried steak?
Dude the food here is something else.
Oh, you are there now? They made the bloody?
Dude the food here is something else.
@tidal bronze I gathered.. it's not really food at all!
Yep. Had to come for a quick meeting. Going home in a few.
Gotta hit the miles quota before the end of the year. π
I had chicken pozole with ghost pepper sauce π
Nice!
I can't do ghost pepper man. Can't carry the fire extinguisher around the next day.
Cleans out the pipes
Easy for you to say it. When the bathroom walls vibrate, no good.
Poboy?
yup, thats a shrimp po boy, they make a chicken one too that is good
Looks good π
damn that looks good
Bussy
ghost pepper sauce π
@green inlet send some my way!
Does anyone else have the ikea portable induction hob
Bought one on Wednesday and it doesn't sound very healthy
No thanks π€’
hob's an Aussie thing too?

since sshfs was being a bitch on windows, I actually found a sshfs extension to vscode
and it worked flawlessly
the extension does not work at all on linux.
And vscode is rather unhappy with you when you use sshfs, when youre unlucky (like me) code decides to use like 10gig of memory and freeze up your dm

Oh no. https://youtu.be/i2jFN_QEcS4

@boreal pewter pick your face off the number pad...
Stupid cat still doesnt get the keyboard thing
hey guys! what do you use for "dashboard" systems? thinking on setting up a small display under my monitors. thinking if i should just do my own (i'm a programmer)
needs more definition
I have 3 monitors and 2 laptops, not sure how much more dashboard place I would need
i'm not asking for the actual display but more of the library
i was looking now for example at MagicMirror for example. I've built part of my own on the other day but... maybe there is something better around
I use a few oled screens with esphome around the house
just for lulz
I'm just not sure what you are after
a "control display" where i can control and check things like calendar. in matter of fact this magic mirror seems quite interesting for what i want
custom modules, open source...
easily dockable. i'll try this one
why is starting a computer called 'booting'? is there some historical reason behind this? π’
My guess is it comes from starting the bootloader.....
so itβs used since β58
interesting
why the hell does Teams take half a gig of RAM?
Not more?
It used to be 1-1,5GB for me when I used it
Probably depends on how many teams you are in
after reinstalling homeassistant os and restoring a snapshot, i cant get my caddy to work
Sounds like #add-ons-archived to me
laptop's only got 16 GB
π€’
hi, im not getting any activation emails to enter the community forum pages....checked spam, junk, etc. resend a few times, over a few days time even....any ideas? (hotmail address)
EDIT: changed to a spam-catching one-time-throw-away email-provider (asdasd.nl) and there it works instantly. hmmm π
@last dirge yet another electron app
laptop fans go whrrrrrrr for me because i have like 3 of those plus chrome
Mine go brrr all the time because I run folding at home and I have 350 tabs open
I frankly don't care much, I'm used to sleeping in datacenters
why the hell does Teams take half a gig of RAM?
@last dirge Teams is at 1gig for me while idling... After office hours
I had just booted it
is that webex you're talking about?
Still not as bad as Firefox, currently at 3gb ram while idling with 15 tabs :/
Teams has turned into a monster hub for all MSFT services. Iβm waiting for them to hook mail into it and displace Outlook
After killing all those tabs leaving only an about:blank tab FF still takes 800mb
oh ok ms teams π
Yup... I shudder to think what teams will use if you actually use those extra services
If web browsers didn't totally descimate RAM, how would anyone market 32GB kits and beyond? I think Samsung and Micron etc have conspired with mozilla and google to sell more ram π
It is a relic from thr past by todays standards, 2600K
Nice! I bet that thing flies :)
Sometimes, when I drop it
Ooof
2 gigs of ram on my laptop π
My freenas box does have 32GB though
it's 2+ kgs, so I usually just bring my chromebook with me when I do business flights
I guessed when I saw the quadro at it would be 2kg or more
heeey, I beat atx
Looking at a ryzen 4000 build for desktop machine refresh
Have a 1660 super in it, not a big gamer
Wait a month or two for the new ones
Better @orchid rose ?
E5 xeon?
Trying to get a hold of a E5-v3 or v4 system right now
Moving to a dedicated e3 with 32GB RAM.
to get my vsphere 7 lab up and running
I have 16 2TB SSDs in my garage that sales haven't asked for back yet, I should play with those π€
They are already 5+ years old
it should be easily doable
v3 was 2015 and v4 was 2017 if memory serves right
An r730xd here in Sweden costs about 13 kidneys π
no love for threadripper?
I don't pay for stuff π€£
@orchid rose I'm looking for beta customers for Milan right now
More like no bsd love for TR Mr K
aw
first generation zen arch from AMD was shite
most customers delivered their servers back
eeeeh you got me
I gotta check
would be the first gen epyc I guess
0.02% of systems we sell are AMD
π€’
If freenas wasn't as good as it is, I would have been all over a ryzen system for my freenas box
For servers you mean?
Fair enough :)
For consumer grade stuff intel is in a bit of a pickle https://twitter.com/TechEpiphany/status/1269626862491353088
Especially with the laptop market slowly moving towards AMD as well
competition is always good
We need competition to force progress
Yep
@clear ferry hope you find your e5 machine in the near future!
Like you, I was stuck with a intel chip from 2011... Just got rid of my i5-2500K earlier this year
Hahaha
I am clearly in the wrong line of work
I managed to swap an 846 chassis (supermicro) for me helping a friend with network stuff
@orchid rose I just replaced my 2600K late last year, too.
That is my best score to date
Sandy Bridge had some staying power π
Almost a decade of service is pretty insane
I only really play minecraft, looking at getting into iracing tho
It just won't cut it anymore
Looking at the new 3600 replacement when they drop
VR forced the swap for me. Couldn't run Assetto Corsa properly anymore
I can't do VR, get motion sick, so probably will end up with an ultrawide or something
Probaably will need more power than my 1660 super
Got a 34" ultrawide on Monday, I love the aspect ratio for gaming
Not so much for other stuff, but for gaming I don't know if I would go back
@last cedar tried it recently? Higher refresh rates and resolutions go a long way toward eliminating motion sickness.
Running a 27 inch 1440p at the moment
@lethal ice if you call the ps4 pro recent then yes π
Otherwise no
Playstation VR is several rungs down the ladder.
Yeah, I heard that
I was fine until I stood up
Which i wouldn't be doing playing iracing anyway
So might be doable
If you get the opportunity to try a Vive Cosmos Elite or Valve Index on a machine powerful enough to get a high consistent framerate, you might enjoy it.
I need to replace my monitors. Still running three U2410s... there aren't many new 16:10 monitors out there, and I really like the aspect ratio π
I've had no issues with motion sickness with the Rift S. Not a perfect headset by any stretch, but it's okay
I will see if I can try some, thanks!
Had 2412M myself before I swapped to this. For workload going from 1920x1200 -> 3660x1440 isn't much of an upgrade. 16:10 is pretty great for everything other than entertainment
Yeah. It would be nice to have something other than the CCFL backlights during the summer because these beasts really heat up the room. But Winter is Coming... π
Haha, I can imagine
and then, there's always https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/monitors/gaming/49--odyssey-g9-gaming-monitor-lc49g95tssnxza/
hmmmmm
5120x1440 vs my current 5760x1200 ... gain a little vertical, lose a little horizontal. But lose the bezels and gain HDR and refresh/response.
well "HDR", it's only 420cd/m3
Yeah.
oh wait it has two values, one of them being 1000cd/m3, so maybe it is proper stuff
Peak Brightness (Typical)
1000cd/m2
yeah
It's kind of amazing the difference it makes in gaming. Moreso than higher resolution I'd say.
VA panel was quite a shock for me after the e-IPS btw so might be worth trying it out before moving on
the black smearing is pretty awful at times
Have been playing a bunch of stuff on the LG OLED since I got one and even older games in 4K HDR are stunning.
thicc boi https://gzhls.at/i/19/96/2271996-n16.jpg
that's a pretty extreme curve
I'm sure it's great for gaming though. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the curve
and this (AOC CU34G2X) is way less wide too
49" is pretty ridiculous for a computer monitor
shouldnt my hass os pi get an ipv6?
It's about exactly the same height as a 27" 16:9 Brian
I got a 34
I don't see how it being 50% larger at arms' length from my head would be any good
it's 33% wider than the 34"
I wouldn't mind that if I had a PC to run games at that resolution
I would love to see more oled monitors
Have a 65 inch oled in the living room, stunning
oh boy i locked myself out again
server host on ::0 but the pi doesnt have an ipv6 address
π
If you're using #330990055533576204 see #330990055533576204 @vagrant crest π
why does my roborock trigger motion sensors an my roomba did not? π
Or the Roomba was just cool π
tru
it's not bigger, but it has lidar yes
you mean the thing blasting out infrared light is setting off the thing detecting infrared light?
π€
it might but i think its just the infrared distance sensors
the lidar is very weak and focused compared to the leds
bussy
Weak and focused? It's brief pulses but they'll still be enough to trip a passive IR sensor.
oh my god my emergency ssh still works
it keeps saving me
Weak and focused? It's brief pulses but they'll still be enough to trip a passive IR sensor.
@deft pewter the output power is minute and passive IR sensors dont pick up point sources well at all due to the optics and design
this is the rough sensitivity pattern
again, its not very good at detecting point sources
it would have to cross a focal point
You got a Hubble telescope installed in your PIR sensors or something?
no, its just a really cleverly designed plastic fresnel lens assembly
sometimes also a metal coated plastic reflector
That may be true. However, I doubt it's immune from interference from a vacuum moving around the room blasting our IR in front of it.
But you can argue the toss all you like π€·ββοΈ
youre talking about blasting but lidar is really weak
the blasting is coming from distance sensors
Easy test, turn off the lidar and see if it still triggers the motion sensor π
Lock the robot in another room. Easy.
apparently UI/UX is a field where you can just charge ridiculous amounts of money
why does my roborock trigger motion sensors an my roomba did not? π
@dusky plank what type of PIR sensors ?
@last dirge then let me tell you about geological analysis people
Last I checked the guys I work with have.... $2500 per hour, plus extras during daytime
That is their running price when working for external companies atleast
They are looking for oil
this is pretty much the whole brains of my house... i like it, cable management ftw and cheap AF
two pi's but only one running?
3 pairs of sneakers must be generating so much power π
WD easystore
both pis run... they're just positioned reverse
@forest edge what's that video man? You believe a sob story from a guy with million YT subscribers. I thought you were wiser than that. π
plus: they both mount pretty much everything from the WD so the SD cards don't write anything at all
@tidal bronze dunno seemed pretty plausible to me
there was another video about the california leave tax lol
Not even close but if that makes you sleep without PJs more power to ya
lol PJ's.. we';re not 12 over here
if my cheeks aren't touching the sheets i can't sleep
@dusky plank are you the one that made the "garage" for their docking station with the moving panel to hide it?
you talking about the robo lawn mower thing?
I saw that, with the auto garage door that opens and closes lol
@dusky plank I doubt it's the roborock. Got multiple sensors and 3 roborocks haven't seen anything like you are experiencing. Although no clue about hue sensors. All standard ZW PIR sensors
zwaveπ€’
everything π€’
Stop hating for once man. Be happy π Its free. @forest edge
nothing is free, only anger prolongs your life. everyone knows that
Here goes Mr Happy
that's why atx's parents picture looks like it was taken in the 1700's.. cause it was!

I wanted to retire in a colder climate but after seeing atx I am having my doubts whether I want to be frustrated and suffering from constant nausea 24/7 for life.
don't think it's the cold that makes him that way but more the lack of updated technology
lol show us your ikea chainsaw again
we have an ikea here and we looked at the food court thing they had, I couldn't understand what anything was lol
cept i knew what the meatballs were
KΓΆttbullar, now I want some
No-one really knows what the meatballs are.
@tidal bronze , now what do I do?
Apple 1st for sure.
Yea, but chilled? Over ice?
Google says:
Soju is best served ice-cold, neat, as a small pour in a chilled traditional cup, over and over again, until the Samsung executive hosting you pulls out his corporate credit card.
But I hear he's sleeping at the moment, so you're gonna get wasted.
Best ate with Korean BBQ, all night long
@tidal bronze , now what do I do?
@green inlet got a trash can nearby? lol
@green inlet sorry man, can't let you go at it alone.
Let's do this!
Yes.
Ok, just went into the fridge
I chill the shot glasses too. Lol.
Shot glass? You donβt sip it?
I go tequila on soju π€£
Lmao. Ok, well, I am going to sip it first.
@granite hare , I am drinking it with a Samβs club 3 meat frozen pizza
Better have the pork belly bulgogi ready by the time they reach freezing temp
Shots, no sips
So do you have BTS qued up ?
Hey google, play bts
Korean boy bands π€π»
- Soju, ain't life so beautiful
Nobody has it better than me kid
Soju on ice? What is this blasphemy?!?
Redneck soju
Actually soju cocktails in itaewon have you beat
I got it from the store warm and it is already 6:00π€£
Cut the top off a 2 liter, pour out a bit and pour in 2 bottles of soju
Sprite?
So, if you are eating Korean bbq and doing shots of soju, what do you drink in between?
Just trying to get a little culture here
Beer
yall are doing it wrong @tidal bronze

@tidal bronze i had a place in wageion .....which they are the captiol of that ...so no problem
Cali, Medellin
the place for squid ^^^^ just north of busan ....to get away from tourist
i stayed mostly at Song So Toncedea
or camp red cloud which is at the 38th parrell
i am seriously considering when i retire buying land in japan or korea ....and be a hemit
@dull chasm Rice patty warlord huh?
Maybe @forest edge can translate that for us?
@green inlet sorry I was never an "army brat" so no idea what it would be like to be a white wannabe raper in a foreign country
@forest edge you have no idea .....they farm as serious as we do ...... matter of fact most people that are not native cannot buy land there ....but i can because i spent a decade in korea and was born in japan (rokuyu islands)
Oh Shit, Sonoma on fire tonight π€£
they farm serious alright. in my quest for hunting down parts for my tractor which comes from japan I have seen how they treat these machines over there lol
cowshit burns blue when full of methane
well yea .....but the damn things that are working the fields are 20 plus years old ....we buy the newer stuff duh
not all of us buy newer stuff
^^^^ fan boy
did you know the new John Deere lawnmowers transmission box housing is plastic? lol
the yanmar i am buying is a ten year old engine ...so it is tested
thats what my tractor is a yanmar
well it's John Deere but they both are the same, it's a 2 piston diesel lol
really mine is a 3 cylinder ....
yea mines a 650, i think the 800's were 3 piston
you gotta move up to a 2 , 3 ,4 or 5 series .....
noway
thats a garden tractor series
mine is the perfect size for what I do with it, any bigger in size would not only be a pain to move around where i need but they are harder to work on
if you call the size of a truck garden tractor.. sure lol
so you are saying ..... @tidal bronze would fit on your knee and you dont even have to use a brake to turn
so you use brakes so your hands are free π€£
I wouldn't take my hands off the steering wheel for nothing, you ever been on one, the slightist bump makes you feel you will fly off the seat
true true but if you have a special someone to hold ...the brakes can steer
@tidal bronze is your girl, not mine. stop trying to pawn that californian veggie eater off on others lmao
no no no ...tis tis tis ......yall are having spats over the proper food to eat ....sounds like a couple arguement
I'm sure once he vists you and get a botfly or two buried in him it will secure the bond lol
so you think cheap and easy π€£
lol
so prepare a set of chaps ......stetson and a fruity drink and he will bushhog naked huh
I would think mowing or anything having to do with cutting green stuff and not eating it would be considered a sin by his religion
so tie a wheelchair at discharge of rotary cutter?
lol salad to go
so i can say my bushhog ........ MULCHES
one thing i don't have but need is a bushhog
You all gotz some fβed up kink going on π€£
bushhog and boxblade
you are part of it .....hence you are here reading and commenting
I only where chaps when I dance.
@dull chasm so after seeing your backyard does your tractor have pontoons? lmao
thats not the property ..... that is where i am at now
oh
if it floods the property ..... new orleans and baton rouge will not exist ..... i am 400 ft above sea level LOL
I think there has been a few hurricanes in the past that did put new orleans under water lol
well yea but not that damn much
lol
over 1k hp ......cali will not allow that ... left is my state police unit and right is my truck LOL
they want electric scooters
did @tidal bronze fall asleep with a seltzer
state patrol unit is a truck?
When little girls battle it out I like to stay away.
@forest edge yea i dont do patrol
aka he was sitting by the pool sipping blended veggies and watching discord
what do you do?
inspections?
i dont think "little girls" is politicaly correct ....at least make it old women
@forest edge secret
@dull chasm sorry my friend. Not mature enough.
@green inlet i am never ever going to help you. Bad idea trying to join a soju marathon.
i have fought in 3 wars and not mature ......
@dull chasm you were part of the civil war?
Lmao
no somalia ....desert storm ...panama ....and i can name a few others
was gonna ask him if those red coats itched lol
@tidal bronze , just like drinking Canadian beer π

The Soldiers ..... placed the arms in surrender and asked that there weapons "Never Server another as you served Me"
14 hours on the phone. I need the 5G protection unit for my head. π©
Yep that's the one.

Here's something for your ultra sensitive stomach
I know you have a weak stomach, its ok though.
it's ok, I know if my doctors ever says I should get an enema I will simply reply back, ok doc i'll go eat dinner with quad
Anything other than baked beans and potatoes make you sit on a toilet you might want to seek help for IBS.
IBS is nothign to laugh about cause if you do you may just end up ruining your undies
You know right ?
everyone has shit their drawers atleast once in their life quad, don't act like you haven't lol
yea while you think, lets ask mrs quad lol

Another useful tip from Presidential Candidate Joe Biden. Thank you, Joe!
Spent a while setting up my car OBD2 to send data to Home Assistant before realizing... I don't really have anything to send. The only thing I really wanted to see was fuel level but my car doesn't have that as a PID
π€ But now that I've played around with the Automate app which is basically Tasker, I can try to pull stats from my electric skateboard if the bluetooth app writes to a log.
The automate app is cool
@errant bough I made my car a smart car with it last summer... Didn't go towards obd though.
Auromated music, GPS/bluetooth etc settings, navigation based on my routine (If I am in a zone and at a specific time, start navigating to a specific address and start Flitsmeister, if not, ask me where I want to go), stopping the automation when the battery gets low...
I'm not too sure what to do with it lol but I'll figure something out. I guess I need to get into the habit of recognizing my habits and how I can streamline them
Pretty much the only thing I've automated so far with HA is having my lights turn on when I need to get up. Don't have Valetudo on my robot vacuum yet but maybe I'll schedule that to get into my room so I actually get up
@errant bough how about having the front door / garage / parking spot / hallway / .... Lights turn on when your car gets within a certain zone around your home, but only between Sunset and sunrise?
I agree - recognizing patterns / habits is the first step towards smart home, because making those efficient is what you want to do.
It'd be nice to have my lights turn on when I get home at night but I'm not sure how I'd detect that when I keep my phone in my room overnight when I'm at home.
Geofencing - if your status goes from Away to Home (or within a certain zone)
In your car you could also add a GPS tracker tag, that's also handy in case of theft (or forgetting where you parked)
I'm not sure how to do geofencing when my HA install is entirely local network and also on a VM with low RAM and tends to disconnect often lol
Ouch.
I've used the Duckdns addon to expose to the internet.
You could run a VPN to your home network on your phone I suppose
Frequent disconnects are worrisome though
Perhaps move to some dedicated hardware when you have more use cases?
Yeah I've gotta get around to upgrading my server. I haven't exposed it to the internet because I'm not sure on the security of my install
It's on my server rack I just haven't gotten around to installing more than the 2GB of RAM it came with. Especially since it wants DDR3 with ECC which is quite expensive
if your phone auto connects to your wifi when in range you can also use that to trigger the lights.
hey guys, is it possible to set up "groups" of lights in the UI yet?
I'm sure my security is as good as many companies' security.
Which is to say, could be better π©
Yup, Sonoma - if we're talking outdoors light when parking I am worried about the range though
i'm trying to set up a 2am job to turn off all the lights just in case they've been left on. Can't see a simple way in the UI to make a group?
mine connects in the street before I even pull into the drive but it all depends on location
I don't think you can make them in the UI only through yaml
thanks..
seems a like a bit of a gap, no ?
i mean such amazing features and integrations and can't create groups of lights in the UI ?
Maybe a good reason for that I guess.
@turbid stirrup as long as your house is less desirable than your neighbours, you ahould be good. Unless you have "something interesting" that people know about.
In that case, nasty people will want in, and get in, if they try hard enough.
Obviously you can minimise thr chance of people getting in, security films, extra locks, more advanced alarm systems etc, but generally all of it relies on making it take long enough for someone to scare them away.
Over here it can take a while for a guard to come out to your home, they don't send the police straight away. So lots of people get away before the right people get to the place.
especially if it's the guard who's robbing you...
Mmmm
We have a lot of municipality work. Was at a place yesterday. A fire at a school. Took the guard like 50 minutes to turn out
Luckily because the fire alarm is a "real one" the fire bregade was there in minutes
But the whole place could have burned down if it was the guards job to call them
I was there tidying up after tjhe guard, tried to reset the alarm with a door open so they called us to say it needed repairing after the fire.
I was like, nope, you are just a moron π
They don't know how to use that sort of alarm
It is based on a maxsys, that was for the Swedish market, it has yes/ no questions instead of the standard maxsys look
@turbid stirrup as long as your house is less desirable than your neighbours, you ahould be good. Unless you have "something interesting" that people know about.
In that case, nasty people will want in, and get in, if they try hard enough.
@last cedar I meant digital security, not physical :)
Not to worry, there's nothing to steal here.
Although some burglars will steal anything they can get their hands on, down to the cutlery
Aha, fair enough with the digital security.
Just about minimising footprint, using vpn etc, no open ports, only allowing specific stuff to be accessed whilst connected to the vpn.
Yup, along with being careful about what you install and where you leave your data
Along with password usage etc
So many companies still have root // root00 on business critical servers
But it is easy to remember /s
I use keepass, I like it for what I do. And unique passwords
I've used keepass before
Lastpass now... Cloud based, but (at least compared to the old version and limited implementation of keepass my old team used) much more integrated into my workflow
Hi guys π I just discovered now that IFTTT will allow to keep only 3 applets. A the moment I'm using IFTTT to send to Google Assistant a command passing a parameter to be sent to HA (as Google turn on my TV and switch to channel XXX). What do you suggest to use as valid replacement? Is there something that can be self hosted? Thanks!
If you're using the google_assistant #integrations-archived then there's also the dialogflow #integrations-archived that can do things like that
oh thanks @clever mortar π I will try that asap!
Wow. Just had my first "I'm going to throw out what I've pieced together and use what someone else built, this is so great" experience

Hey all, took me a bit to figure this out so I wanted to share, figured others might find it useful. I am an aggressive updater. I strongly prioritize keeping my stuff up to date but Iβm not one who usually turns on automatic updates. What this means is I usually want to kno...
Sure, that is nice... but would be even better if someone added this https://community.home-assistant.io/t/wth-why-is-there-no-supervisor-devices-entities/222855 instead of spending countless hours on hacking the same result :/
I am an aggressive updater.... but Iβm not one who usually turns on automatic updates.
π€ π€£
I can Imagine wanting to update when you have some time on your hands rather than finding out there was a breaking change during your morning routine
Well, my own preference is to wait at least 24 hours to see if something that matters to you broke. This has often been a good decision π
Nah... that sound too logical
I only have self updating turned on because there's nothing in there I'll get upset with if it breaks
For instance 0.115 has broken camera streaming to Google Home devices, so I'm waiting on that being fixed because it's one of my standard routines...
Hi all π Hope everyone is doing great today! I am a dude from Denmark, that just started learning HA. One of my colleagues is using HA, and after seeing all the cool stuff that he have done, i have to get on board :D
But i am having some trouble with install. And let me be honest, i am starting from scratch here. So when i installed via Docker on a Raspberry pi 4, i thought that i installed everything :)
But i have been trying to read, and understand all the mechanics of HA. I would like to run with Supervisor, so i can install add-ons, and do customizations.
hey!
I would also like to understand the whole system a little bit. HomeAssistant that is. I have been reading different stuff, and some different name changing makes it a little hard to know status quo. home-assistant is homeassistant.core, right? and then there is a OS as well? And supervisor is to orchestrate everything?
https://www.home-assistant.io/faq/ha-vs-hassio/ answers that better than I could
thank you @flat fossil
no problem. and welcome. sorry I don't know much about installation. havent done it in years lol
Not sure which install you're using? If you have system_health enabled you can check Configuration -> Info, or see the following.
-
If you're using HassOS, flashed an image, or booted a VM with an image you're using #330990055533576204
-
If you installed Linux and then ran a script to install HA and have add-ons then you have #330944238910963714
-
If you're running
dockercommands or use a Docker manager and have no add-ons then you have #449717345808547842 -
Finally, if you use
pipto install or upgrade you have #551864459891703809
Having difficulty chosing an install method? See this blog post for guidance.
@strange mauve
You are probably looking for the all in one #330990055533576204 which is a limiting appliance for people who have little to no technical expertise
@clear ferry your right, i would like the whole suite π As a developer i do have some knowledge. Do you know if the image for raspberry pi 4 found here: https://www.home-assistant.io/hassio/installation/ also include a linux OS system?
Where my knowledge is limited is with raspberries and linux and installing via SD cards π
Because i did buy an SD card for the rasp with a preinstalled OS on.
You've been told where to ask #330990055533576204 questions already
sorry @deft pewter, i did'nt understand that he were referring to a channel. I thought it were the concept
No harm done. Just take a moment to familiarise yourself with the different channels if you're new. The topics describe what each channel is for and most provide links to useful resources too.
If in doubt, start in #general-archived and someone will direct you if there's a more appropriate place.
but i dont want to ....i want to lounge and bullshit
isnt that the point and if discussion becomes invasive and/or less of bullshitting and a support issue then move to proper place
π© π© π©
kinda looks like happy poop ....you having a good morning?
Not enough vomit. He's clearly unwell.
you saying its coming out of the other end
π€’ π€’ π€’
@clear ferry so both ends ....that must be hell with 3 meters of snow at -20c
We once had snow blizzard in our area with 4ft snow, we loved it. That was almost 10+ years ago. Since then, we only get a foot or two each year.
Have you guys heard about Ring's Neighbors app ?
Yeah, we had so much snow here the year we moved here that I had to shovel after shoveling
So I bought a snowblower
Very little since
is there any alternative with open API/home assistant integration
@nocturne aspen you would prolly get better results in #integrations-archived
@dull chasm, primarly i just want to learn what people think about it
Same here. I got a Honda snow blower, never had snow that is big enough to use it π’
its seems like a great idea, but unfortunately looks like the system is closed and tied to Ring ecosystem
Gents, is there a way of creating a function so I donβt have to write the same code over? For example, to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit the formula is: f = (x * 9 / 5) + 32. How could I create a function and use that in an automation?
In HA? Sure... #templates-archived will know
Look up Macros.
@nocturne aspen understood but still that channell would get more attention to the subject matter
fair enough
if it was not niche type stuff then people here would jump all over it and discuss but i would think thats a small audience
doesnt sound like a niche thing to me though π
its like a neighbourhood watch in your pocket π
at least that's the promise
yes but how global is it ....how many use ...etc etc
i mean come on ....here we are talking about @clear ferry and his poo
in the snow 3 meters deep
and his π€’ at 1 meter with @last plaza trying to use the snowblower to fix it
EPIC

@dull chasm putting another icepower class D together π
Idk what that is but it looks very neat.
200W x 2 power amps pocket size.
Class D, what is this, the 80s?
Gone are the days of 50lbs to 100lbs power amps.
More TUBES
You gotta come out of the ice caves now and then π€£
π€’
@clear ferry, class D outperforms class A/B nowadays!
Unfortunately news comes late to Norway.
Check out the 1ET400A EIGENTAKT from PURIFI for example π
yea @tidal bronze sounds good but i am not conviced on harmonic's
BTW, not sure if there are any users of the custom_component/circadian_lighting here?! Good news for them, check out https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/40626 π π
I will make you a believer when you are ready. @dull chasm π
sure anytime but land and tractor comes first
I know.
maybe i can ride your coat tails and get a sweet gig π€£
2 more amps and I am done with A/B
i had to buy another beer cooler last one died ...compressor locked up .... $200 damn
That's 400W right there.
@zinc ingot that's pretty cool. Thanks for the link.
94% efficiency π
@zinc ingot circadian lighting has always been better than f.lux, I'm surprised noone has made this move before
Efficiency, gotta heat the garage somehow @tidal bronze
π€’
Lol. I hear you
I chose to keep YAML support due to the rich options one can set
π
@zinc ingot I'll thank you in advance for the fact that I'll be able to remove a custom component π
@clever mortar, I hope that keeping YAML will be accepted by the core devs though π
π€
I too like it for the fact that it's way easier to configure and tune "fiddly" setup
Tweaking a slider by 1 is hard, tweaking a text file value by 1 is easy
That's exactly why I really want to keep YAML π
I only made the UI options because it's required to get it merged nowadays π

did anyone got any Raumfeld Devices up and running? by the german manufacturer Teufel?
now that my home assistant is running again:
is there any addons that i should have to keep it running (cleanup of the database etc.)?
See #add-ons-archived π
man you guys really do keep the channels tight
i thought generic questions were okay here
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.
Remember when reporting spam to include a screenshot of the spam and the user's handle (eg @spammer#123)

@green inlet switching it up π
Old Toys R Us turned into a giant liquor store ππ»
Seems... fitting
Could have been worse, turned into a sex toy store π¬
That would have been even more fitting, bringing pleasure to them as kids, and then later in life too... π
@tidal bronze Ooohhhh.....a blood orange. Good pick
Why the hell someone choosing foots as a logo for their wine?
Traditionally extracted grape juice, maybe?
It is how wine is made in ye olde days

https://share.busheezy.dev/Kmgpfz.jpg yay, RS232 debugger for work
@night zodiac good stuff π Been working with Moxa Nports last 2 weeks. Had enough of RS232 π
Is there a channel here that announces when thereβs new home assistant updates?
@bitter zinc you mean #announcements
nice, @tidal bronze . I had to look up what that is π
@tidal bronze the riots just are not letting down especially in your area. your not out there with them sometimes are you?
the company I work for uses various devices like chrome os boxes to display ads and similar content. They hook up to TV's and a lot of them have RS232 to turn the TV on/off
change input, and set volume
@forest edge I do join if time permits.
But lately been too busy don't know what on earth is going on out there. π
the news shows it being the end of the world lol
I didn't have/want a TV that does RS232 so I made this little thing
I wrote a little utility that imports data from salesforce and inserts tags and the rs232 stuff based off of it
Reminds me the days of AVR control over 232. Actually everything from Creston ran on 232
It was quite fun figuring out the code to get 'er going nicely
the news shows it being the end of the world lol
@forest edge really. No clue man. Didn't notice anything today was out and about looking at some rental properties
@tidal bronze it's always dark out when they show the shit show on the news
some dude snagged a dead body in central park NY with his hook.. imagine reeling that in..
@tidal bronze the other night they showed someone in a prius being surrounded and the car was being trashed as they try and drive through, was gonna ask if going out for dinner was worth it but then realized you use uber foods
Lol. I don't think we will dine out for quite some time.
has the covid spread died down there? it's actually spiking here. kind of nuts
if I get it and lose my smell and taste I may actually try some of your food choices lmao jk
Flat lined from what I read. Although I am not up to speed with any covid news.
not up to speed? wtf you doing lol
this is your home town, you may wanna engage once in awhile heh
Stopped tracking stuff months ago. You know that LA is not a small place right.?π€£
30 minutes
yea that's not far lol
Haven't been that way in ages. Although used to live off Hollywood Blvd 20 years ago. Too busy now.
well you couldn't traverse it now if you wanted, not without closed eyes and a snowplow atleast
Wife goes that way everyday, she likes the hustle bustle. Me not so much. π
sure during the day is a whole different scenery
Does anybody have any ideas on how I could determine if a drip-water bottle is empty or not on a small animal cage?
I'm thinking maybe ESP32 and an optical sensor?
Or sonar sensor
Hmm, I'm concerned about high frequency sensors near them but... pretty much all electronics emit them and we don't really know how much animals care lol
how big is this bottle? lol
@errant bough those projects scare me, I would not ever put 100% faith in anything you put in place being so accurate that you don't check on it yourself time from time
At least no effect on my dogs as far as I know.
Oh I'd check it dw I'm just wondering what automations I could do lol
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075R6SSHJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have some of these and they are supposed to be pretty reliable
I have water pump out and fill, which cleans the bowl and refills few times a day.
My rodents are most of my daily annoying tasks that I can't automate. But I don't think I can automate any of it anyway besides checking their water levels
You can get alerted at low water levels.
lol how many diiscord servers you in that you havve to have each button be a grouping? lol
a lot
I can relate lol. Discord really needs tree tabs
@night zodiac I see that you are knee deep in DIY stuff. Good for you π
haha, yeah. I like it quite a bit and have been looking for any reason
Unfortunately I gotta keep a track of Sonoma, look away for 5 minutes he turns things up side down
deleting my messages so they don't take up half the screen
that's too many discord servers, you got an addiction problem. seek help
all of them are muted except one
I'm just happy we actually have groups now
it took a long time to get
Gotta visit MO one of these days.
they just released the ability for server admins to view a server through roles so you can see what others see. that took too long.
I'm from Illinois, my girlfriend is from Missouri and her parents live there currently. I'm there more than anywhere other than home.
@forest edge yeah, that is super neat to finally have
not much to see in MO unless you like to fish and eat biscuits and gravy lol
nobody's biscuits and gravy is worth a shit. you have to make it yourself π
not true for here
Exactly, I want to find out how people survive with only 3 types of food.
pffft.
we got more than 3 types, you just mix them to get endless possibilities lol
Lol
Are you St. Louis area or no?
other side of state
Nearest major city ?
St. Louis has their own little food pallet
I spent a summer in KC for an internship, lots of BBQ was consumed π
@forest edge you got tons of food man what are you doing with biscuits and gravy ?
I got a shitty ph sensor that was DOA. It had instructions in chinese for a different device. I bought another one thinking it wasn't coming from china but it is coming from china.
Bluestem and affare looks darn good.
@tidal bronze don't be knocking my biscuits and gravy.. once you had it properly done you will forget what mexican food was
Mexican is only one.
well lets be real, that other stuff is similiar.. bunch of stuff tossed together and servered with a colorful name
I love biscuits and gravy
I just had taco's and refried beans tonight. the toilet is preparing for my arrival
Fogo de Chao some Brazilian as well. Biscuits and gravy.... I mean really ?
fuuuck. I just asked my girl to get sausage tomorrow and she said "yes."
I want it now
That didn't sound right.
...
it's okay
Fogo de Chao some Brazilian as well. Biscuits and gravy.... I mean really ?
@tidal bronze you need come inland.. less coastal food and more traditional
mexican food is coastal food?
all you do is skip from coast to coast and other countries.. you completely fly over the food that started this country
Lol
@forest edge native american food?
@granite hare never heard of the first thanksgiving? lol
for some reason the town I live in has a bunch of mexican restaurants but only one of them is decent. none of them are excellent
Let's see how you biscuits and gravy compares. @forest edge
quad has never had good biscuits and gravy
I don't know how you guys can possibly be so limited in your intake of food
limited?
you know it's always the first people who eat the strange new berries that die the first for the rest of us to know to stay away from
lol
I fuck with strange new berries
my area of the state just got a farmer market delivery service. I got some habanero autumn berry jam this week
Now that sounds good.
it's a flat fee of $6. I have been getting all kinds of things. bison burgers, locally sourced beef
crossiants
Let's see how you biscuits and gravy compares. @forest edge
@tidal bronze once you had real biscuits and gravy you will finally feel like you have truely lived
@forest edge you gotta do NY LA SF food tour. Expand your horizons a bit. You don't wanna be 83 and say "best I've had in my life is biscuits and gravy "
the biscuits and gravy I make and love isn't even complex. it is embarrassingly simple now that you're making fun of me.
does this tour come with a mobile shitter?
Adult diaper
no thanks, those give me a rash
sausage, flower, butter, milk, pepper is literally all I use.
I doubt it.
and the cart hotdog
You gotta go with me. Obviously you went to the wrong side of town.
well yea, I was at the trade center in 2000 lol

Gluten free nice.
I been to several places over there from NJ to NY. I got a close friend who lives in south jersey and my girls family lives in north jersey lol
NJ food, no thank you
I didn't get it because it was gluten free but I'm not going to not get it because it's gluten free
it was tasty
wawa was actually awesome lol
I introduced him to puppy chow and for years we would send him some for xmas cause that's all he wanted lol
I'm about to eat an apple and peach
the gas stations here sell puppy chow, pretty convenient
any Caseys usually has it in stock, lol
Puppy chow ?
crack cereal
is it actually called puppy chow? cause here when they started selling it in stores it was called something else
everyone here calls it puppy chow when they make it home made
muddy buddies?
Don't do cereal
maybe, don't remember what they call it
it isn't normal cereal
but for years the only way to have it was to make it yourself
it's chex
not ceral lol
the cereal is just a vessel for chocolate, peanut butter, and sugar
That's edible? βοΈ
oh man and you give me shit.. you would love it
chex IS cereal, lol
your like that person who has never heard of pop and then trys a coke for the first time lol
yea i guess it is lol
Lol
I never eaten it with milk, sounds gross
You eat that for breakfast
not even their chex rice cereal?
yeah, you totally wouldn't just impulse buy it because they keep it near the cash register
/s
I have never bought it, we always made it and just still do lol
once a year
shit will make ya fat quick lol
I never make it. I just buy it
it tastes the same and the gas stations make it fresh
I haven't had it in a few years
I doubt it taste the same as when you make it from scratch lol
I want it now
it doesn't evven taste the same the day after you make it lol
it really do. they make it the same way
ahh, maybe
I'm fine with how it is a day after then
@tidal bronze you should take a flight with a KC layover of a couple of hours then you will go home wondering why you never tried traditional food before lol
with that "stranded at sea" menu you been having most of your life lol
Oh I've tried but......
either of you two watching the fights?
I don't watch men touch each other
I might. Gotta go to TN next week so will give it a try. π @forest edge
I thought you were talking about watching men touch at first
I was trying to find the correlation between TN and touching men
I might. Gotta go to TN next week so will give it a try. π @forest edge
@tidal bronze TN isn't bad, they have some good down home cooking
Love ribs down there.
I was trying to find the correlation between TN and touching men
@night zodiac well they are big on wrestling there lol
@tidal bronze don't think TN bbq is the same as KC or any other place if you eat it there lol
I like dry ribs and a pile of pulled pork and bread
lol those cornbread muffins look like cracker barrel's ones
I could eat a ton of those.
don't ever eat at a cracker barrel - my father that manages their equipment when it breaks
please don't eat at them. my father tells me horror storries
well, you can if you want
but be warned of nasty
truth be told every place has it's Horror stories lol
yeah, I mean the company my father works for has many contracts but cracker barrel is the one he likes to talk about
I don't eat there cause they don't know how to cook chicken lol

They have hashbrown casserole instead of hashbrowns. π¦
BBQ is different in every state. infact BBQ is diffrent here between st louis and KC
definitely
https://www.goldbelly.com/central-bbq this is what I get from TN
they wrap it really well
BBQ here is such a indepth topic our reddit is 70% comprised of who thinks which place has the best BBQ lol
and we have it all, from fancy to literal shit hole places where you forget the bathroom looks to be held up my roaches holding hands cause the food is too damn good
what is your favorite? I wonder if they are on goldbelly, lol
maybe not favorite, somewhere good that has a decent chance of selling online

fuck
I want the brisket and burnt ends t hough
I am telling my girlfriend how I want the $220 and rather than talking me out of it she said "I am sure you'd eat it within a few days"
1 Slab Pork Spare Ribs
2 lbs. Whole Pork Shoulder
1 lb. Beef Burnt Ends
1 lb. Sliced Brisket
1 lb. JalapeΓ±o Cheddar Sausage Links
1 lb. House-Made Sausage Links
1.5 lbs. of Smokie Joe β Chopped Brisket And Pork, In Barbecue Sauce
1 lb. Smoked Sliced Turkey
1 lb. Pulled Smoked Chicken Breast
2 bottles (14.5 oz.) Joeβs Kansas City Bar-B-Que Sauce
1 bottle (14.5 oz.) Night Of The Living Bar-B-Q Sauce
not a bad deal at all
wonder how that taste being air freighted lol
my girls family sends him hotdogs from NY time from time, always wondered how that tasted too lol
"Upon arrival, reheat, refrigerate or freeze immediately immediately. The package can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 days or in the freezer for up to 1 year."
yea but food never tastes the same
she freezes loafs of bread and I won't touch it lol
I don't even like reheating most leftovers
although some stuff actuially taste better reheated.. it's weird
my parents used to shop at cosco when i was a kid and they froze bread
if you needed to toast bread you'd just use frozen bread, lol
use fresh loaf for sandwiches
pork and beans tastes better when reheated the second day
okay, just spent $240 on meat. no refrets.
refrets is a cool word
Oct. 2nd we feast
never tried that night of the living bbq before, sound spicy lol
I am excited
I tried to convince her that it's a week of feasting on meat for her bday , 11th, but she wasn't buying it
10 pounds of meat and 3 bottles of sauce isn't terrible at all
yea you will like the joe's bbq sauce but truth be told, that's sold at Hyvee lol
well maybe not every hyvee
hah, hyvee is 30+ miles away. my girl just went there for the first time last week actually
well if you end up liking it, there is a good chance they will havve it there lol
I'll probably need meat to go with the sauce so I'll probably just do another wild order
have you tried the sushi at hyvee? I have heard people like it, lol
we don't have that
I'm 30 miles from a bigger city
and they don't have that either
they don't exists anymore I don't think but I wondered if that's why Hyvee came from
I'm craving all types of shit after this chat
@clear ferry but you do cook it first right?
Cook what?
No
Not the baby. Sorry if I wasn't specific
Hmmmm
he eats babies raw too
I am not sure which I am more mortified about. The baby eating or the raw bacon eating.
you eat raw bacon?
