Oh

#

And opn does?

#

And what would you do with such an integration?

#

I am not interested in displaying a lot of useless statistics, but using as presence detection for certain ip addresses could be very useful

Was using the tp link integration until I broke it, so not used it for ages

Okay well that is fantastic

#

I would like to see a possible integrstion if using nut server to pull statistics from a UPS

#

Might be able to do that via smtp into opnsense though

#

I only have USB into the router

So no network card in the UPS

There are some guides for NUT for OPNsense on their forum

mostly any guide for pfsense will work on opnsense

#

just the fact that they have wireguard native is enough for me, nothing wrong with pfsense, they just don't do fun stuff anymore, and if stuff isn't fun

I pull NUT statistics from freebsd and raspberry pi , NUT is NUT, so it will probably pull it fine from opnsense too

dusty hull Nov 21, 2020, 1:18 PM

#

Reason I ask is that, for extreme users only purchasing local only products or reflashing firmware isn't an issue. But they're is a market I believe for beginner to intermediate users that don't want to do that kind of stuff but still want the control of not sending anything to the cloud at all

NVIDIA has reportedly increased the concurrent sessions limit of its NVENC hardware video encoder on GeForce graphics cards to 3, up from 2.

That's a GeForce 780 equivalent, so h.264 quality is going to be pretty meh, and there's no h.265 support at all.

#

Also , it's possible to convert a GTX 780 / 780 Ti / Titan into a pseudo-quadro by soldering on a single resistor to the back of the board.

#

Which kinda devalues the Quadro's of that generation.

I'm curious how much that helps performance and load times

@orchid rose Infinity cache is just a large chunk of on-die cache on RDNA2 GPUs

RTX I/O is similar to what modern game consoles are doing to accelerate load times (which is why Sony and Microsoft both made a big deal about the inclusion of a PCIe SSD on their new systems)

@clear ferry I'm with you on smart locks. Nobody seems to make the product I actually want...

#

I want a smart lock where you can read the current state remotely, and lock it remotely, but not unlock it remotely... like I want it to be mechanically incapable of being unlocked by anything but a normal key

clever mortar Nov 23, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

I don't object to remote unlock, but I'd want it to require physically being enabled

Then for the 99.999% of the time I don't need it, it couldn't work

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

I'm also a little surprised nobody has made add-ons for locks to just... read their state

#

The battery life on something like that would be extremely long compared to motorized smart locks

Or just a drop in lock mechanism that only read the state

Must be a states side thing, we only use seperate when it is an extra lock (usually higher up)

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

So you'd need to monitor that mechanism ^

last cedar Nov 23, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

Yeah. It isn't a cheap solution but a motorised deadbolt would do

#

And connect it in such a way that the voltage feeding the lock is broken when the bolt is out

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

Unless all you want/need is monitoring, in which case a motorized deadbolt is overkill (and has poor battery life)

last cedar Nov 23, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

There are products that do what you want, but it gets very very involved

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

And fitting that into an existing door would require... a ton of drilling... and doesn't fill the pre-existing deadbolt hole

last cedar Nov 23, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

Yeah. We normally modify the hole in the door, and or matching frame.

#

Drill in from hinge side to meet the lock body

#

I think I will use those assa 580 locks in the door. Or a step 40 in the frame. Frame is less work though

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

This is a double-door. The lock goes into another door, not a frame

#

So.. there's another wrinkle. lol

last cedar Nov 23, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

You could just put a contact in the other door, a simple microswitch that closes when the bolt pushes on it (door is locked)

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

or a company could just make a deadbolt with an integrated zigbee contact sensor >_>

last cedar Nov 23, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

Still an involved installation though

#

Yeah, that too

#

How about a zigbee magnet contact on the door, and a strong magnet on the end of the deadbolt. Depending on the thickness of the door?

#

So when the bolt is out contact closes

Ugly, but effective

last cedar Nov 23, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

Oh, yeah, nice

#

You could maybe drill the hole a little deeper and hide it in the door

#

But yeah, the majority of our installs are either done by pulling the status of the bolt from the lock

#

Or by pulling the status of the bolt from the frame

mine go well over a year on 4 AA batteries

#

and on top of that i have 2 weeks or longer of low battery notifications before they are dead dead

I think I went through the initial set pretty quickly, but replaced with the li-ion AA and they've probably been going a year now.

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 8:42 PM

#

Quick note about lithium ion AAs: You won't get nearly as much warning before they die

#

The voltage doesn't slowly decrease over time like it does on a regular AA battery, it stays relatively flat, then falls off a cliff. lol

shy comet Nov 23, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

teh schlage locks do a really good job at annoying you to replace the battery when its low

#

the lock beeps at you for 5 seconds flashing an orange light before unlocking each time

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

Fun fact: The original Furby has no hardware voltage regulation. It periodically spins its motor, checks how long it took to move from one indexed location to another, and then speeds up or slows down program execution based on the returned speed:

📎 unknown.png

#

Yes, that's Furby source code

shy comet Nov 23, 2020, 8:59 PM

#

wow lol

subtle pasture Nov 23, 2020, 8:59 PM

#

That's also why Furby starts to sound like a hell nightmare when the battery runs low. Elsewhere in the code, it syncs overall execution speed with the detected motor speed to keep lip-sync working, and if it can't spin the motor fast enough (due to a nearly flat battery) the sound starts to slow down. It has no ability to time-stretch the audio, so the playback starts to break up.

Fermentation also breaks down the lactose

man i would really love to have some pita ....they drank mostly goats milk ...i dont know if thats lactose or not

#

I'm lactose intolerant but I can handle a lot of yoghurt etc,

#

But my daughter is allergic so it's a no go

#

which she funnily enough inherited from my anglo-saxon/british wife

#

So my daughter is quite possibly lactose tolerant but the dairy allergy trumps that all

🤣 is "yoghurt" the same as "yogurt"

hushed basalt Nov 24, 2020, 11:36 AM

Yes 😉

For World to American translation just take out some of the letters and spell half of them wrong

Atx, are you using motion eye?

#

Which camera settings are you using for casting to Google home?

clever mortar Nov 24, 2020, 1:07 PM

#

#cameras-archived 😉

dull belfry Nov 24, 2020, 1:07 PM

#

If someone can share his/her camera integration for motion eye, uses duckdns ssl and is able to cast, please share to me in #cameras-archived

clear ferry Nov 24, 2020, 1:08 PM

#

for casting to google home I use Home assistant to record a 10 second snippet and then cast that on google home 🤣 not motion -> home

#

I don't do any direct stuff

#

but probably #cameras-archived people do

hushed basalt Nov 24, 2020, 1:30 PM

Are Google hubs even useful?

clever mortar Nov 24, 2020, 1:30 PM

Yup

deft pewter Nov 24, 2020, 1:30 PM

As a speaker/display, sure.

Interesting, told my Google home to shut up

You'll hear him crying in the middle of the night.

The new UI makes for quite nice device control, just like you get in the Home app

#

Plus it doubles as a clock/photo frame 😂

hushed basalt Nov 24, 2020, 1:35 PM

So you use the Google Home integration and not trying to cast lovelace?

clever mortar Nov 24, 2020, 1:37 PM

#

Nah, I don't make enough use of them as "control panels" to make that worth doing

You need to throw it a bone first

usually, it i find a solution or it starts working right after i start talking about it. 😄 and As i hit enter here, it popped up in my dhcpd leases

#

im making voltage meter reader for my electric scooter, so that it would start charging my battery if i have a school to go to at the morning.

#

or that it would keep it constantly at 4 Volts/cell.
