finally I know where this comes from π

"they see me rollin', they hatin"
Is ytmnd still a thing? I haven't been there in 20 years
So i heard a colleague pronounce yml as y.m.l. (three letters) yesterday to me it has always been a word along the lines of yam-el. Which of us is wrong
since it has an "A", I'm going with the yam-el
yml is some "I only have 8.3 characters" BS
and 1990 wants it back
Phew I'm glad. The well it's XML and HTML argument does make sense but yeah yaml was my reasoning
Anyone else having HA not to start after launching 0.117 update?
Those are abbreviations so it's a bit different
initialisms, right? And they all are
YAML is recursive along the lines of GNU though, but GNU is also pronounced as a word. Wish we could just agree. If the GIF guy every says it's G-I-F I riot
yes, it's recursive
although I've also heard "Yet Another Markup Language", which I think is actually not what it is at all
Well that's kinda the opposite of "YAML Ain't Markup Language"
Yeah was a nice diversion from iOS stuff
Hello since I dont know where to ask this: I am trying to set up my secrets.yaml and got to the point where my system tells me I need to set a dburl and now I am confused... As I understand it the dburl links to the secrets.yaml doesnt it? Sadly I cant finde if I have to define that for every single one or just once and where to put it in my config.yaml... If someone could enlighten me
i will switch to integrations but I dont quite get what recorder has to do with the secrets.yaml setup
Can I share a referral link anywhere here on discord?
Why would you want to share a referral link here unsolicited?
It's not a place to advertise things for your own gains.
This is why im asking. There is a referral program on aliexpress where users can help each other with one click to win smart things. I try to get a Yi cam right now.
- Spam will not be tolerated, including but not limited to: self-promotion, flooding, codewalls (longer than 15 lines - use Hastebin or similarΒ³) and unapproved bots.
but somebody green is welcome to weigh in
I think rule 6 sums it up π
Ah Thanks RobC that was the info I was lookig for
Spam is spam. Doesn't take a genius to figure out what other people may consider spam.
Referral links are the business version of those stupid chain mails people send.
Yes but its a win-win situation if you do it for somebody and he also does for you
Green here, and it is against the rules.
If someone asks you for it, it's not spamming. That's why I said 'unsolicited'.
If someone wants to PM you now knowing that you have a referral link, I cannot stop them from doing that.
Sure. Thanks for the info.
RobC already mentioned it, but HassBot can be triggered for rules too. π
@storm niche Rule #6: Spam will not be tolerated, including but not limited to: self-promotion, flooding, text walls (longer than 15 lines) and unapproved bots.
Please take the time now to review all of the rules and references in #rules.
Just wanted to share somehow the game maybe somebody would like to join a game. Understood
Nice. Let's move on π
I'm not reiterating the rule, just show off HassBot. π
Yes lets move on already spent too much on it π
Guys anybody here using google voice assistants?
#voice-assistants-archived is where you'd want to go
@peak cloud I love it when you show me off!
dale touching the bot in naughty areas again. someone alert an admin
I was totally going to look for a bot command to do exactly that and got bored π
"Show us on the circuit board where they touched you"
XD Oh my god that got dark
Does anyone know if adaptive lighting is in the latest release?
Mentions in this release but i cant find in on the integration ui
Doesn't seem to be able to be added from the integrations panel in 0.117.0.
Let me check PRs.
@fiery flower Still open and was not added to 0.117.0: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/40626
Thanks, looking forward to that feature
Can someone tell me if questions how to integrate ring doorbells into #integrations-archived or into #hardware-archived or elsewhere?
@hearty depot That is illegal that bord is way too young
@red sequoia You're looking for the #integrations-archived channel.
If ever in doubt, you can check the channel topic at the top of any channel to verify that it's the channel you're looking for.
Thanks dale3h
Well fuck. My covid test just came back positive. π¦
Unlucky.
I'm sure atxbyea has some servers that are 18+
@red sequoia Let me get my Amiga 1000 out of mothballs, it's older than I am π
@peak cloud Oh no π¦ π¦ I'm so sorry
@peak cloud Get well soon π
Thanks. I am mostly feeling okay. Sunday and Monday I think were the worst. Since Sunday afternoon I've covered all "common" symptoms except for vomiting and diarrhea. Now it's mostly just congestion, body aches (my lower back is killing me), and fatigue. Lost smell/taste two days ago.
Yeah, losing your sense of smell is a hallmark of COVID at this point
I can stop self-isolating once it has been at least 10 days since I first started experiencing symptoms and I am fever-free for one full day without fever reducers and my symptoms have improved.
Sucks that I live with my best friend, his wife, and their two kids (11y and 4mo). And on top of that I've had my daughter for the past week, so she most likely has it too.
I've always found it weird how we use "sucks" as a negativism when the act is so highly prized
"That sucks!"
"Isn't... isn't that a good thing?"
π€ .... You're right. I should go down an etymology hole instead of work right now
You raise a valid and important point.
Richard, hold my calls.
@peak cloud sorry to hear that man. know how you got it?
No clue.
I've always found it weird how we use "sucks" as a negativism when the act is so highly prized
@subtle pasture on the contrary, it's not always highly prized. when done wrong it down right sucks
#NoTeethPlz
If you consider the high end of the incubation period, it could go back 14 days.
or more
Well. From my googling, best I could find is that it comes from "sucks hind tit" to mean the runt of the litter who got the least milk
Which doesn't exactly help the idea of it being rooted in salaciousness
something to put on your resume, "extensive knowledge of the term "that sucks" background history"
No, no, that's good. I now get to mentally replace all instances of "sucks" with "sucks hind tit"
Ya know... it feels weirdly classier
Right? lol
I just imagine someone in a 2-button suit saying it.
when you find yourself reading too much into stuff like this, you ruined it for yourself, please don't continue to ruin it for others lol
Unbuttoned, mind you.
Hey it didn't ruin anything for me. Who am I to say who will be forever bettered by the knowledge and who will be forever scarred
@peak cloud get well soon.
Just got marketing email from Google with "Final Proof - AU - en-AU - NonG1 - 20134459 - GS200173" as it's title and message "this is ready for dist", someone in their marketing department messed up
ransomware
Yea
@tidal bronze Thank you, sir.
cough it up old man ...you will be ok
If I was yer age, I'd be in the hospital already!
@peak cloud Are you on steroids or just OTC?
OTC, Aleve and Mucinex D
cant beat the apple sauce
@dull chasm Too bad I don't love apple sauce.
Any steroid keeps symptoms down makes it much easier.
and the boiled eggs are good ....but nobody else wants to be around ya ..... they produce bad bad gas
I don't have insurance, so going to see the doc costs an arm and a leg, especially if they administer a shot of any kind. π¦
Prednisone, urgent care.
The great thing about covid...I can't smell myself after not showering for days on end.
Lol
I did take a shower last night, though...I felt like I smelled terrible. π
@peak cloud i can send you overseas with the military for ten years then you can have veterans care like me
@peak cloud Get well soon! I mean, who takes showers anymore when your stuck at home anyways π
I currently live with my best friend, his wife, and their 2 kids. Tuesday his wife started showing symptoms, and then today he started showing symptoms...so soon they might not be able to smell me either.
@dull chasm I am not brave enough for that.
Hey, I guess that's one positive outlook
Thank you jaxon.
and you call me old .... i did it
Well you are old.
That's because you are old, old man.
@dull chasm BTW past bed time. Get those Pjs
i am in pj's got home late fixin to go to bed any sec
I haven't felt up to drinking since this shit started (Sunday afternoon), but now that I am confirmed positive...shit's on.
Drink anything but beer.
Nah, you need something a little stronger then that
so your drinking a wine cooler ...girly girl
Wine cooler != seltzer.
Right now these seltzers taste like...seltzer water. With no alcohol in them.
close enough
Beer makes congestion worse
But before I lost my sense of smell and taste, seltzers remind me more of a vodka/soda/lime.
Interesting. I've never heard that!
Is kasa a good brand for smart things
he eats rabbit food....not sure about op
I'm getting some new smart plugs that aren't random chinese crap
@peak mountain I try to stay away from WiFi devices. rather use something local like Zwave or Zigbee
@dull chasm I am going to ship you some
Okay makes sense
Kasa is compatible out-of-the-box with Home Assistant, so yeah, not a terrible pick for wifi plugs.
some rabbit food.....i got 50# sacks lol
I'm been grabbing Kasa smart plugs every time they gone on sale for $5 or $0.00.
Did any of you guys get in on the free Kasa plug deal a couple of weeks ago???
No, didn't know that was even a thing
It wasn't supposed to be apparently, but it happened.
Also at the same time a $10 Wyze Cam v2
Free shit is always helpful for a broke college student
I've been picking up some smart devices as I go but man, this stuff can get expensive fast
(It's not valid anymore...just showing that it happened)
And the $10 Wyze cam: https://slickdeals.net/share/iphone_app/fp/597137
Iβm over the Wyze cams these days.. not bad as a gift tho
Anyone able to provide any guidance on where I should be looking to get my HA instance loading again? Looks like supervisor can't talk to core API for some reason. Details over in #330990055533576204.
Please DO NOT cross post. Read the channel description, post it and wait for folks to respond.
slaps @scenic radish with a wet t-shirt.
what alternatives are yall using instead of visual studio code?
ed
ed?
I guess he's referring to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_(text_editor) π€· Never heard of it.
Wow. TIL that E D is more cult-ish than V I π
As far as web-based editors go, before it was deprecated I used the IDE add-on.
Beer makes congestion worse
@tidal bronze Got a source for that?
@peak cloud have a customer who got covid.... 5 months ago, still has no smell or taste
Ed is like the original editor. ed begat em which begat en which begat ex (as in "ex-commands" in vim) which begat vi which begat vim.
Which is why some of the original commands still work, and why the original vi would still work in single line mode (haven't tested it with vim)
These behaviours come in handy when you're on slow/shitty links and need to rescue things
It probably works with vim but not neovim
Reminds me of that story about the guys who accidentally rm -rf /d, but found out they still had ed open in an ssh session and restored the system byte by byte.
Ouch π
Here's one case https://x3ro.de/restoring-your-unix-system-after-rm-rf-/
I've done it myself too. rm -rf ${sysroot}/ and sysroot was unset...
π
I was actually really happy about that annoying osx system protection thing then. The only thing I lost was /usr/local and that's fine.
And by most, you mean >5% π
Why are you printing busts of Teddi?
Why aren't you?
I foresee no way at all in which you'll regret this.
Not really, since I've already changed to the winter tires
I can see that. And now you have lots of space for heavy stuff and open boxes of tiny screws and things (make sure to push those to the back so they don't fall down).
Psssh, the boxes contain summer pillows
And the plastic and zinc containers are empty
Let's revisit this... i don't know... sunday night after Easter? When you need to go somewhere early the next morning and forgot.
Wait... you don't have spikes? Never mind in that case.
Is that legal today?
We can have spikes on whenever the conditions demand it
Like now we have already had snow and - degrees
And we can drive with them till late April, unless the conditions demand it, then it could be extended to may
I thought it was Noveber - easter in Norway.
But I don't normally care, so I'm probably wrong.
Hi, not really sure which channel should I post this on, but I am having some trouble using pihole through supervisor portainer addon, maybe some1 could guide me to the right channel π
I tried spike free once. But my driveway at the time was leaning down towards the house, so I couldn't even get that car onto the road for four months.
@odd kiln Maybe #330944238910963714, maybe #add-ons-archived
@low harness Great, thanks
is there a place for home assistant memes?
/dev/null
We can't do memes here? atx shitposts enough π
He is a meme... oh, hang on π€
No. Only top quality gifs from our man atx.
I'd probably win some award here @deft pewter either most loved son of a bitch, or most hated cunt, I'm like trump, polarizing
Come to think of it, I should get both
It's funny how the more people there are in hangout, the easier it is to accidentally click it and get stuck in there without realizing...
π
All muted. Someone should go in there, unmute and whisper "I can see you..." or something
Just play an audio track of somebody breathing into a mic
you can see
Or a notification sound.
Ohhh, typing on a keyboard
Lol @lost yarrow
Hmmm, TTS to the channel Hi, this is the agency, please stay where you are, we're sending a van to collect you
lol
@low harness it's just in the way, should be moved all the way to the bottom tbh
You're probably right
So we're saying he's superior to Norwegians?
@valid halo saw a mitsubishi miev with pink rims and a hello kitty sticker covering the whole door, made me think of youπ€£
Sounds fun π
I envy people who have the disposable income to slap an anime or cartoon character on their car.
Psssh, the miev is so cheap I see them standing around everywhere π€£
It must be less than $7k used I'm sure
The twizy is for you
shouldn't the steering wheel be in the trunk for norwegians so that they are not like any other country?
Mounted under the chassis...
looks about right
I drove a car around by using a wrench for a steering wheel once if that counts
are all street lights stretched on a wire as well?
Street lights on wires sounds american
that picture you posted
those saucer things are not lights?
I think they are junction boxes for the tram electric
Never seen light come out of them
weird
Might have been lights at some point
is that the "car" alcoholics use when they take away their license
It's quite popular in the city here, I see atleast 1 every time I bother driving in
Also you can't operate any motorized vehicle here if you lose your license
ay, at least 10 yrs ago in sweden it was a loophole since it wasn't an automobile but rather a moped in the register
In Norway you need a license for any motorized vehicle
Too bad it doesn't apply to electric bikes and other electric kickbikes etc
quite a lot of countries have speed limits for them but no proper permits. difficult to be with them in the traffis since you don't know if they act like cars, pedestrians, or bikes
we just dont have them ..so its simple
we dont claim them

@clear ferry , since you're the expert, any opinion on this as ISP supplied device: https://genexis.eu/product/pure/
belive it scandinavian company, sweden
well that sounds reasonabe, but any opinion in the framework that it is ISP supplied
Recycling y'all
Well, am I? We recycle mostly all π€£
And we pay a fee when we buy boxes and cans that we get back when we return them
Snap - we can recycle metal, paper/cardboard, plastic, and food/garden all at home
so pee .....then drink ...pee ....rinse and repeat
Glass we have to take to the local bottle bank
the planet will recycle what we dont ......
Sadly it takes a while for that to happen with the humans...
Yeah, I hope we get glass and metal at home soon
My parents have that
We only have paper and plastics
hell humans are recycled ....they make nice flowers i been told
Invest in a Can Crusher
reduced my trash massively for recycling
i buy very little that is not biodegradable ...so not too worried about recycle since it recycles it self ..
good point ... i mandate ...pine caskets .....
Psssh, just use a hemp bag
cremation will be mandated before long probably
Organ donation for me
not sure you'll fit... || ooooooohhhhhh ||
I do that too
cremation leads to co2 gases ....better to have nature decompositon
and Science
Easily combinable @rare condor
personally i dont want to burn ....would rather want what nature inteaded
cremation leads to co2 gases ....better to have nature decompositon
@dull chasm so does forest fires
true
tbh none of this matters your dead
if you are cathloic it does
we all end up in the same waiting room regardless.. think Beetlejuice but with norwegians being nearby
@rare condor no but dont dismiss veiws neither
I submitted my first integration today as PR π
he did really good with that role
nice when actors finally find that one role they kind of click at
@dull chasm Sorry if my comments came of as rude or dismissive I didn't intend to.
I have never watched Beetlejuice
ban him!
lol
That was easy USD118
what?
Recycling
thats insane
confused, you saying you get paid to recycle?
we get 5cents a can and have to return it to another state 20hrs drive away
I must havve missed that part of the convo
we use to get some change back for recycling, not anymore lol
And we pay a fee when we buy boxes and cans that we get back when we return them
@clear ferry So that's what the random Kr things are on all my beer cans?
@rare condor np ....the chat should not be biased on any view nor should it a place to preach that you are better (excuse atx and norway thats a whole diff topic) but also should respect a view ....person A should not preach person B should not argue ....niether really happened ....
We pay USD0.21 or USD0.31 per bottle or can we buy, that we get back when we recycle, incentive
@deft pewter yes
So basically it's just more expensive beer if you don't bother to recycle? I like that idea.
On a side note... I'm going to start saving my empties and bring them with me if I ever visit Norway.
All good we know atx is just trying to make up for the fact norway is too cold and dark
@clear ferry you just pay more that they keep if you decide to throw it in a ditch.. gotcha
Yeah, very few cans and bottles are thrown away, so we don't have that problem
@clear ferry <#the-water-cooler message> thatβs a lot of sugar! π
I think the last I read we recycle 97% of all cans and bottles
@last plaza that was just from this morning
If someone throws it away someone else picks it up and recycles it
Incentive
If just some other third world countries would do that
Like in Ireland, everything went into one bin, glass, metal, food, bottles, matrasses, dogs
our country has too many aholes for that, so instead we get "programs" where groups of nice people go out and pick up our aholes trash once in awhile
Groups of nice people - you mean convicts and inmates?
not all of them are that lol
In the name of βcommunity serviceβ
I don't think that actually happens anymore, at least the northern part of the states
maybe where Vasiley is they still do the horse and shotgun watching convicts on the side of the road lol
i just thought of something ...our country is pushing this income for those that dont have .....like 2k a month .....they can do "community service" to earn it .... build roads .....pick up trash ....etc etc ...... win win right
@forest edge we do
messed up we have to do that to keep our place clean
should just ship it all to atx so he can "recycle" it
well @forest edge they are the ones that prolly throw half of it out to begin with
@dull chasm anyone here who didn't have some kind of disability but can't work have to do stuff like that to get money from the government, actually they have to do any job the government gives them or else they get nothing
@dull chasm probably lol
@dull chasm thatβs a noble thought. At the end of the day, you pick trash and someone else gets paid. Where is that payment going to come from?
@clear ferry damn i cant believe i actually liked one of you comments
@last plaza well i am in goverment and we pay contractors to do the same ....so i think the community service idea would be cheaper
Yes it is
they do "adopt a highway" programs here, that had filtered down to some city roads as well
We pay contractors because the govt employees donβt want to do anything.
@forest edge that is only bullshit pr stuff
maybe but I see groups of volunteers out there quite often
Here we just send school kids to do it once a year, that is enough since there is very little trash to pick up by the road
Child labor!
they consider it a break from having to knit yak fur into blankets to not freeze to death
Now for glass and metal
You should update that sign to the HA logo...
looks like someone was using that recycle bin as a target practice for like a BB gun or something lol
Nah... they were using atx for target practise. That's just where they missed.
maybe it's rocks blown into it from the snow storms they get
they do look rather small
$19.99 wyze camera x2 comes to $57 a some change to purchase.. wtf lol
Might be a very dumb question but I'm flasing a zhh! stick with zigbee2mqtt. I need to install pip & python to my windows machine to do that. Both done. But now when trying to execute the flash script I get a not installed error:
C:\Users\l\Downloads\cc2538-bsl-master\cc2538-bsl-master\cc2538-bsl.py requires the Python serial library
Please install it with:
pip3 install pyserial
But when trying to install it I get informed that it already is installed...
What command are you running to do that?

Don't ask to ask, just ask your question. Then people can answer when they're around.
When you do ask a question, try to provide as much background detail as possible. Ask yourself these questions first so that others don't have to:
- What version of the Home Assistant are you running? (remember, last isn't a version)
- What exactly are you trying to do that won't work?
- Is the problem uniform or erratic?
- What's the exact error message?
- When did it arise?
- What exactly don't you "get"?
- Can you share sample code, ideally with line errors where the error occurs?
Didn't expect this to go into #zigbee-archived since it's not really a problem with zigbee. But i'll move π
You're asking for support π
true

how much wood could a woodchuck chuck?

what is that suppose to mean? lol
god punished turkey
@peak cloud have a customer who got covid.... 5 months ago, still has no smell or taste
@clear ferry I guess this is the time to eat healthy and kick the salt habit. π€·π»ββοΈ
loss of taste/smell for 6mo+ is normal from what I read
Jesus. This is really going to suck.
yes and no, think about all the food you wouldn't eat previously you can now lol
I had to go on steroids for awhile which drastically cut my taste down. NOTHING tasted like it use to and because of it I actually ate some food I didn't even like before
What are some of the things you didnβt like before?
alot of spicey type foods
I think the biggest thing tho was trying diffrent chinese food aside from low mein
it had it's downsides tho since I did have some taste, stuff like tacos which i loved tasted bland as hell, rather unenjoyable to eat lol
β€οΈ Horseradish
Had some with the steak I cooked last night, match made in heaven
leave it to a cali to come in and like gross crap without any taste loss
...horseradish on steak (and especially prime rib) is a classic combination
California didn't come up with that, lol
yea I think coal miners did
anyone running HA on raspberry here who is not shy of installing an addon of mine?
I don't have physical raspi myself to test on :/
damn, wrong channel probably
curious how you came up with a addon specific towards a pi when you don't have one lol
I run it on virtual machine myself, got bored of SD card issues
See #add-ons-archived π
π
@peak cloud hope you are feeling better!
@peak cloud he used to make his own delicatessen sandwiches for work every day, now he eats porridge every lunch...
you should stop confusing the rest of the world with your typical 3rd world traditions lol
@peak cloud hope you are feeling better!
@last plaza Thank you. I actually woke up this morning feeling the best I have in days!
Porridge is just oatmeal anyway, right?
well yes and no
Porridge can be many things lol
exactly .....in the midwest they make the shit out of grits and grain .....
norway it's likely snow and pine needle
it is always a low cost ....high fiber/filling meal ..... but yes most of the time oatmeal
execpt norway ......some whale that washed up
honey smacks
Mmmmm whale meat
dead for 20 days but fresh on beach π€£
Aged
maggots give it texture
no maggots in ocean but let it sit a day or so on beach ......game on
We don't do fermented whale, the fresher the better
Fermented fish on the other hand
this is gonna make me nauseated. time to go do something else
Sicilians do fermented cheese with maggots though
Don't eat it the maggots are dead
Icelanders do fermented shark
That is supposed to be interesting
I think thatβs how @peak cloud found out about his covid. π
@forest edge Had to look it up, horseradish has been cultivated since antiquity. The condiment is actually mentioned in Greek mythology. lol
So, not "coal miners"
I need to taste proper wasabi, not that bullshit any sushi vendor calls wasabi, horseradish with green food colouring π€£
I guess I'll have to wait until we go to Japan after covid
The issue with real wasabi is it turns brown very quickly (due to oxidation) once it's been made from the plant
Like, it turns brown faster than guacamole
Interesting
So you basically have to have wasabi root on-hand, and grind it yourself before serving
I have never had my guacamole turn brown
Even after two days
I just squeeze half a lime into it
Lime juice helps prevent browning
Exactly
Works on apple slices, too
Wasabi π I use that for remote backup
@dull chasm lol. Need to do that test
@subtle pasture Iβm thinking of picking up some small ssd to try esxi this weekend. Happen to have any good guide? Or recommendations?
@odd kindle for boot? Just do usb or SD
If storage you can use any NFS / iSCSI target if you already have storage
@odd kindle What's the SSD for?
@clear ferry oh. That would make it a lot easier
Yeah, ESXi is an embedded OS, so it usually runs from an SD card or USB flash drive
@subtle pasture well, I figured esxi needed something.
It lives in memory after boot
Or, in larger clusters, it's network-booted
Compute nodes need not have any storage at all
I've never seen a pxe booting esxi irl, and I've seen clusters up to 200 nodes
Whereβs config kept? On usb/sd?
For virtual machine storage: Find a compatible NVMe SSD
SATA SSDs will choke with more than a couple virtual machines, because they have to service all I/O through a single disk queue
EEeh, it will work for any normal home user
If you're running from USB/SD, yeah, config is typically stored there
Can be moved to a network location if desired, though
My tiny nuc wonβt handle more than a couple of vms in any case π
@clear ferry Fair, though if you have NVMe, it's a significantly better option for virtual machines than SATA
Iβm hardly even a prosumer :p
I only run 11 virtual machines, and I can for sure tell
βOnlyβ
@odd kindle That's not many for a DL380 Gen8
I used to run 45 vms at home, with spinning rust
RAID controllers have multiple disk queues and large caches (not as many as an NVMe drive, but still, far better than 1)
@subtle pasture no, maybe not. But youβre more than a prosumer tho
It's actually kinda wild. A single NVMe drive outperforms most SANs I deal with in small business environments
Maybe your SANs ;-)
Could be worse. Get some salmiakki
Well. I hear what youβre saying. Youβre telling me to buy a new gaming computer and just convert my old to more server.
@odd kindle Nah, I thought you said it was a NUC? Most of those will take an NVMe drive π
It does. But itβs being used for my proxmox install. My gaming setup have a free NVMe.
Also... I want the new Radeon, and a 5000s cpu
π€’
@clear ferry no?

Hi guys. Iβbe got a Lenovo M93p mini pc. I want to install HA Supervised on this. What would be the recommended path to go?
Hers-and-hers gaming rigs. Mine is on the left π
Ok guys, quick question. Fire TV stick, Roku TV stick, or Apple TV
Iβm looking for a nice looking UI and compatibility with HA
@subtle pasture you should invest into some chairs
and maybe some speakers for your SO
Chairs were out of frame, and she likes headphones π€·ββοΈ
first time seeing a pc beneath the stove
ohhh
I approve of the piano in the corner though
@subtle pasture good beer
Iβm looking for a nice looking UI and compatibility with HA
@bitter zinc Ask in #hardware-archived. If you read the topic for #the-water-cooler, it says there's no support here. π
@bitter zinc plus all 3 work as far as i know
I approve of the piano in the corner though
@clear ferry it's decoration
@dull chasm ππππππ I should have tried this weeks ago!
@dusky plank Stove?
oh, i meant fireplace thingie
Oh, the brick thing to the left? No stove there, the previous owners uses it as a TV nook
Beside a fireplace? Lol
There's no stove pipe or anything, it's just a stone platform/backing
I keep a 3D printer there because, yeah, it's basically a fire-proof corner >_>
it's a condo isn't it? loft whatever layout
Interesting. Iβve never seen a stone corner like that without a fireplace.
@forest edge Nah, it's a house
@subtle pasture Have you seen those fire extinguisher balls?
The first thing I thought when I saw it was to mount one right above my 3D printer.
There's an actual fireplace in the next room, so there'd be no point in this being used for a stove anyway...
@peak cloud Yeah! I kinda want one for that
It's a total "just in case" safety measure
When they come down in price I might actually do it. But I think theyβre $90 USD right now.
I have a suppression system in my printer cabinet after my first Ender actually caught fire
The heck is that? Whereβs the last third of your delta?
Like, all the Marlin safety settings are enabled, so it shouldn't go up in flames (it'll stop the print if thermal runaway is detected)
@low harness It's a Deltesian
All the speed of a cartesian and the calibration simplicity of a delta packed in one?
My fire was started by a failure inside the PS, no Marlin settings were watching for that
Also the computational simplicity of a certesian, since the bed is cartesian, and the arms are planer
So 8-bit controllers can run it without choking
If anyone is curious about what weβre talking about as far as fire extinguisher balls go: https://youtu.be/L_0sawCkIk4
I mean, feel free to run a 32bit board, but 8-bit is fine with this printer. lol
but that is the suppressor I have
Interesting. Iβve never seen those before.
@low harness A lot of people use this kind of setup with a belt bed for continuous printing
Which basically gives you a delta-style printer with infinite Y-axis size
Looks really cool. But isnβt it really easy to get a cup along x from just small inaccuracies?
A cup?
Like how deltas easily get a bowl shaped printing plane.
Ah, yeah, that can happen if your frame isn't square
because then the maths required near the bottom to generate a straight line won't be the same as the maths required at the top
But knowing marlin it probably compensates for that automatically anyway...
just have fire sprinkers installed. that way you don't have to deal with expiration issues lol
It might be a weird design, but... it does do nice prints
Jeeze, you should have put a NSFW warning with that or something. Thatβs definitely layer porn.
Busting makes you feel good!
Busting makes you feel good!
@forest edge r/nocontext
works on all levels, your comment, and Halloween.. Ghostbusters!
@peak cloud Hah, my bad π
That's running an e3d v6 hotend, bondtech (BMG) extruder, and Capricorn bowden tube, on an Ultrabase heated bed.
That looks great!
I'm running a Microswiss with bondtech in direct drive (my kids love "squishy" prints)
I don't think I have prototyped anything or printed anything for myself in a year. I use more TPU than I want to think about because my kids are demanding asses
@subtle pasture How do you like the Capricorn bowden tube? I've had it on my Amazon wishlist forever, but haven't pulled the plug yet. I run a cheapo Ender 3.
The Ender 3 is surprisingly an amazing little printer. It prints on quality with a Prusa.
It was a good upgrade, for sure. If you're having issues with stringing / retraction, it'll help
And it's one of the easiest print quality upgrades for an Ender3
I still have about 1-1/2" of tubing, so technically, I am still using capricorn tubing, and it works fabulously
And it's one of the easiest print quality upgrades for an Ender3
@subtle pasture That and changing the bowden connectors
True, true
There's a reason I have that 3D printed pressure fitting on my extruder, rather than the collet+clip thing it came with
Over time, the original fitting would wear down the tubing, allowing it to move in/out on retraction, which is exactly what you don't want
I made some compression fittings (intended for plumbing uses) work for a long time
No such issues with the pressure fitting, which clamps onto a full inch of tubing
I assume my reference is similar to what you printed
Conical thread + nut arrangement
I got tired of the orange, so I re-printed it in black π
similar enough
Same principal, something gets crushed into the tubing as it is tightened, preventing movement
I can't find the thing on thingiverse, but for the stock hot end, I had a type a printed washer to keep the bowden tube seated in the heatbreak even if the tubing moved a little from bad fittings
I had never considered upgrading the fitting. Should I do that before I even install the Capricorn, or should I install the Capricorn and then print the pressure fitting?
Capricorn PTFE tubing kit comes with the fitting. At least it did for me.
The only ones I can find on Amazon have the press-lock fittings.
Yeah, you only get the press lock fittings. They are of decent quality
The press fittings that come with the tubing are upgrades from the trash Creality ships with the printer
I can get the tube by itself for $10.40, but am considering this one so I can upgrade the lever and plate too: https://amzn.com/B081DN6RM2
Yeah. Thatβs the one I got.
@last plaza Happy with the quality of all pieces?
π―
Metal feeder is a game changer
Ordered! It always helps to know someone else that has ordered a same product, especially when there are tons of options available.
The metal extruder doesnβt fit snugly on the stepper motor due to the screw head. I had to file it. That was a minor inconvenience, but an easy fix.
None of them fit quite right and require adjustment
Speaking of buying things on Amazon...have any of you guys tried the Lawnmower 3.0 yet??
I no longer have bed springs either, went to machined aluminum spacers, new bed plate, glass and BLTouch
My lawnmower 2.0 is still working.
Itβs all @clear ferry βs fault. Always.
BLAME ATXANADA
I'm still on bed springs, fully compressed I think. But I do have the Creality glass bed and BLTouch.
π€
Nice! I donβt use the bl touch, became so good at leveling, I can do it in sleep. π
My current manscaper
Haven't bothered putting on my glass bed yet, waiting for my 3dtouch to arrive
@last plaza The 3.0 has a built-in battery, a charging dock, and a little higher RPM. I used it today for the first time (got it yesterday) and...wow. It still feels like it nicks, but never actually breaks the skin.
Nice! I donβt use the bl touch, became so good at leveling, I can do it in sleep. π
@last plaza LOL, so had I, but I grew weary of it
How long does it take to do full mowing? Good for large yards?
BLTouch makes a world of difference...I got so tired of leveling every once in a while.
The new Y plate and bed were the real compliment
Took me about 10 minutes to completely mow a fairly large yard today.
Sweet!
It's amazing what a little plastic blade can do for your skin. π
extruder chat
Oh, it might be? It looks plastic.
Here is the Y carriage I bought
SO stable and only 3 levelling points if you love to level
Added that carriage to my wishlist.
I am NOT keeping up today. Are we talking beard trimmers, lawn mowers or 3d printers?
all of the above
Minus beard.
And reverse flame grenades?
Hahahahaha
oh damn
@peak cloud lol @ calling an intimate personal grooming product "the lawnmower"
Reverse flame grenades. Love it!
I just remembered I have to shave tonight, family Halloween costume and I am Severus Snape
Last I checked, he was not a bearded hipster
@subtle pasture It is the name of the product.
I know, it's hilarious
Also, shouldn't the male version be called the weedwhacker?
I love the commercials for the LawnMower
The commercial is where I first saw it, but didn't really think it was anything special.
The chainsaw on a chainlink
Also, the F Fakespot kinda made me weary too.
I googled a ton before picking that Norelco one I linked earlier
Zed just called himself a hipster. I can't let that go.
Speaking of layer porn. I had the best first layer ever the other day. It's like the lines fused into a solid mirror finish surface. Never seen anything like it before.
I just turned 40, so I should probably buy one to fit in
Don't give in to the masses.
@spark orchid 3-point leveling for the win
I have the option for both 3-point and 4-point... 3-point is vastly superior
I tried to take a photo but my phone couldn't focus. I'll see if I can find it again... gave it to the kids.
Leapo, Did you 3D print your entire printer?
A large portion of it, lol
From my Reddit, before new hot end and the bondtech
@peak cloud First round of parts was printed on a Delta Go. It has since re-printed itself at least once
Dang, I just watched my own video... cannot believe how loud that thing was before upgrading the board
That's one of the greatest things about 3D printers -- they can replicate themselves.
@spark orchid I installed TMC2130 stepper drivers to quiet mine down
Noise levels went from "two robots fucking" to "wait, is it on?"
The drivers are soldered to the board on the Enders and I don't have a rework station at home
I personally like the sound of loud stepper motors. π€·
The SKR Mini E3 was cheap and easy
Sound = vibration = bad for print quality
Oh snap, I never considered that.
Granted, you'd need a finely tuned printer before the sound of the stepper motors started showing up in your prints
What do y'all use for your slicer?
Cura
Mine started skipping steps so I had no real option
You guys hear your printers?
I've been on Simplify3D for years, so I'm bias toward it.
Simplify3d has some good options.
I use slic3r when I need to tune layer by layer
@clear ferry The only time I can actually hear a stepper motor on mine is during retractions, because it's on a 3x gear reduction thanks to the bondtech extruder
So it has to spin pretty fast to retract filament, lol
Anyone put dampeners for the stepper motors?
My biggest complaint about S3D is how it handles profiles. I have a bazillion of them, and when I go a long time between prints, I never remember which was which.
It gets hot enough in my garage to melt filament lol
@spark orchid Perfect conditions for printing nylon >_>
@spark orchid mine is 20-30c year round
@subtle pasture and ABS
Carbon fiber doped nylon filament is some amazing stuff
So, looping back to our esxi discussion earlier. Do I need two usb sticks to get it installed on usb? Or can I solve it with just one?
I've used it to print quadcopter / drone parts
@peak cloud what print materials have you tried so far?
Two @odd kindle
You can beat the tar out of it, and it just won't break
PLA and PLA+. π¦
You need to advance there! π
Problem: You need a hardened steel nozzle to print it, because it will bore-out a brass nozzle in short order
It's highly abrasive stuff
My next project is a drone, actually. I am migrating the entire flight system from an old drone into a custom body
Thankfully, my e3d v6 came with a hardened steel nozzle π
"wood" filament is nozzle death, too
eSUN PLA+ is by far my favorite filament thus far. It was also the one I tried first. It doesn't suffer from a lot of the same problems that PLA has.
Wait until you try TPU and Nylon. π€£
Doubt I'll ever be able to get them dialed in to print properly on a bowden setup.
TPU is impossible until he gets his capricorn tubing
PLA+ is nice for durability, but it's not as stiff as regular PLA
@clear ferry has a great way of expressing how it feels like. lol
Eh, some of the stuff I ordered from AliExpress has been a lot better than any local filament I get
The arms on my printer are printed in regular old PLA, because both PLA+ and ABS were too flexy
@last plaza like printing with a limp cock you say
Leapo -- have you ever tried eSUN PLA+? I've heard all PLA+ are different.
I printed TPU a ton with bowden. I switched to dd because the kids wanted so many toys and key chains that it just made sense
Micro center sells PLa+.
Microcenter's PLA+ is eSUN rebranded.
@peak cloud I've printed TPU on my bowden setup, but it absolutely required the bondtech extruder
I really need a second printer because the weight of the extruder slinging about shows up when I try to print fast
Need to try to go DD @spark orchid saw I could print a mount for my stock extruder on the ender 3
I'm still on the stock extruder and hotend.
Yeah, the original extruder will have TPU buckle and start coming out the side rather than going into the tube
I've printed fine with regular extruder and hotend tpu
A friend of mine has an Ender3 and the first thing he did was convert it to DD, using just some 3D printed parts I believe.
In about 6 months of non-stop use, you would end up replacing pretty much everything.
When I changed to the all metal extruder upgrade no more tpu for me
Yeah, the original extruder will have TPU buckle and start coming out the side rather than going into the tube
@subtle pasture drill out the hole on the tubing side of the extruder and pass the tubing through right up to the gear
@spark orchid THat can help, but I prefer the double-hobbed-gear design in the BMG
It grabs TPU from both sides and constrains the filament path nicely
See now y'all are talking outside of my knowledge range. π
That's cool, this entire discord server is beyond my knowledge range as I have only been running HA for 3 days
@clear ferry cool, thanks
I mean, you can get clones for pretty cheap. I've used this one personally:

@clear ferry no one wants to see your dildo prints!
Note: Do not insert any 3D printed objects into your body, they're highly porous and will quickly become bacterial breeding grounds
She said from experience?
Print, sand/finish, make a mold, cast in body-safe silicone, THEN have your fun.
@spark orchid No, but it comes up in 3D printing circles rather often
Because, honestly, it is a great medium for prototyping such things
If you are going make a mold, you might as well make hundreds and sell them.
But you can't just use what comes off the print bed...
I know lol. I think that's why TPU was put on a spool
@last plaza Also true
Not worth making mold for just one print π
There is a business opportunity for you @forest edge
layer lines, for his/her pleasure
Yeah, I need to get better at printing TPU.
@last plaza actually make a print you mean
I made quite a few - thank you very much. π€£
But not the quality I usually go after.

I have a different generated password for every site I use, don't see the issue
second question in case you're around. the free esxi version have backups via their api off. Is there good other ways to make backups of entire vms?
No idea, i run enterprise plus π€£
@clear ferry the issue is that they even check
it signals they're doing something they shouldn't be doing
When did it change from jello to oil?
@odd kindle That's why I just run the trial license, which has all features enabled and no limitations π
You just have to reset it every 180 days (the official way of doing this is a reinstall of ESXi, but google will lead you automated solutions)
I wonder if VMWare finally fixed ESXi v7 so you can't subvert the licensing model with a bash script and a cron job...
@subtle pasture ok. Good to know. For now I'll just go with the free version. If I can manage to get it π
I base a lot of my trust on companies sites, atm vmware isn't delivering π¦
Get started with free virtualization with VMware vSphere Hypervisor. Consolidate your applications onto fewer servers and start saving money through reduced hardware, power, cooling and administration costs.
Downloading their software is a bit tricky if I remember
Yeah, you need an account
I'm stuck in an "activate account" loop
Maybe it was Silabs that was weird
I couldn't get past that link, it even said "If you belive this is wrong go back and sign out". Except I couldn't go back since it redirected me back. And I couldn't sign out because the activate page didn't have any log out button...
Pop open an incognito window
Yea, their site is weird
Try from there
I just cleared the cache
That's a bit extreme, but should work...
it did. But I shouldn't have to
Assuming that actually cleared the stuck cookie that's hanging you up
I mean, I didn't have this issue with their site when I signed up, but that was years and years ago
The Microsoft Evaluation Center brings you full-featured Microsoft product evaluation software available for download or trial on Microsoft Azure.
Which has a far less restricted free version, with no registration / key required
Oh, and Veeam B&R (which now also has a free version) works with Hyper-V free, but not ESXi free
π€’
@clear ferry Not my fault Microsoft has the best feature profile in their free version, lol
I'm a simple man.
I click the button I see, I do not enter my personal information.
You can even do Hyper-V clusters with the free version, which requires a full vSphere license and vCenter server on ESXi...
My only real complaint with Hyper-V is that it's not an embedded OS, so you can't just run it from a SD card like you can with ESXi
So prepare to have some real storage with some level of redundancy for the OS
