Prepare for ATX CANYON in 2022

anyone here good with knowing where to install LED strips rather than how to?
it's the bit I struggle with most at the moment
got my telly on top of two of these side by side https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/kallax-shelving-unit-black-brown-60275812/
wanna stick some led strips underneath, would just on the horizontal sections be best and if so, all three or just like two of them?
atx, are your ATC sensors routed through esphome/esp32s?
I'm so bad with this
My ATC what now
xiaomi sensors
cheese?
Brown cheese 🤢
I clicked the image thinking mono was working on something

Got a 12 hour Twitter suspension for posting misinformation about the vaccine yesterday
I want to apologise and correct what I said. I now understand after doing my research that it doesn't give you telepathic powers. You also will not sound like a fax machine when you orgasm. https://t.co/Tg4szANymj
wow, what a waste of a night
That's what all of atx's dates said

So if I have an older MacBook Pro (core 2 duo), what would be the best for running home assistant? Just virtualization it in the Mac OS or try to install Linux instead of Mac OS orrr see if I can install ha os and have the Mac boot that ?
The best for running HA would be to ask in a HA support channel.

@deft pewter Couple of 'gotchas' and a wait for the certificate to show up in the CloudFront console, but my first static site is up and running using S3, CloudFront, Route53 and ACM.
lol, i was looking into why IFTTT applet for LG ThinQ washers doesn't work, and got this from IFTTT via email support:
We have been reaching out to LG for some time now, but I'm afraid we don't appear to be receiving a response from the team in charge of this service.
We will continue attempting to contact LG, but please do feel free to reach out to their support team in parallel as the more end-users that make the issue known to LG, the more likely it is that we receive a speedy response.```
LG is ghosting them lol

hehehe nice fireplace
From the thumbnail, I thought that was the front of a townhouse in London or something.
i'm starting to suspect there might be an actual market for a hackable universal remote
seeing as I found zero commercial products that meet my needs and had to make my own
Massive demand, yes. A whole 156 people backed this one recently: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/marton/yio-remote
Wrong? You just mean it doesn't meet your requirements.
say it with me, touchscreen remotes are bad ux 😛
Say it with me... there's no such thing as a universal button layout.
i'm thinking socketable button modules as the final form of customizable physical remotes
but that would be a revision 2 thing
so you could like pick your form factor and then a few chunks of buttons that meet your needs
also they screw up by making em way too pricey
i'd be aiming for the $30-50 mark for the remote itself
the BOM for my prototype is like $70 and I can bring that waaaaay down
that YIO Remote looks pretty sick
it does but some obvious issues jump out
just from the general concept
touchscreen and rpi means you're gonna be recharging this thing often
yeah
even with a charging cradle or something that's still inconvenient
i don't have equipment to test my thing
but theoretically it should last about 5 years on 2 AA batteries with moderate usage
and it's probably a TN panel which sucks with the Harmony I have as well 😦
if I put a screen in my remote
it's gonna be e-ink
so I can still get that killer battery life
also you can finally get small e-ink displays without having to custom order so that's cool
oled could be cool too
yeah but power hungry
e-ink draws no power when it's not actively refreshing
so you can get away without frequent charging or huge batteries
in any case
i have my prototype still in the works
if I can clean it up i can probably get a supply chain set up and get shit refined and certfiied for like $15k so I can sell kits
wouldn't need to sell all that many units to recoup costs
it just seems like such a glaring hole in the market that there's no remote out there with physical buttons that can be made to work in any fashion you choose
There must be a reason that even the big manufacturers drop every modular product they test.
If it's not practical for them, I'm not sure how yours is going to be different.
CEC, problem solved

is oled that power hungry when it's mostly black? I'm sure e-ink is better but it's also a lot slower
atx watches gifs on e-ink displays 
It was more impressive when you did that with the watermelon on your stream.
Ok... that's impressive.

We don't talk HA in here.
Ah didn’t know, going to ask there. Thx
Well you need to start reading topics, then you'd know 😉
hey fellow nerds ....which drive would you get for a failed drive in a synology
I run wd red in all my nas drives. Works well. But I’ve had two failures.
Red plus for me, I want cool and quiet drives (I think) or go the who hog and go for ironwolf pros or golds, etc
same here replacing a 4tb wd red
One was preowned, though, and I don’t know the history. But the other one was only a year old.
Got a replacement under warranty.
The replacement’s been going for probably 8 years now.
@clear ferry looks amazing. How much?
yea but wd is 5400 vs seagate at 7200 rpm
Do you really need the speed for a nas?
5400 rpm will generally be cooler and quieter than 7200
I don’t know either, but I’d guess your network is more likely to be the bottleneck.
Unless you are running faster than 1gbps you won't need more than 5400 unless your reads are insanely random
Sequential reads on a 5400 drive is well above 112MB/ sec where gigabit tops out
For nas drives 5400rpm is best imo
Media doesn't need anywhere near their single disk sequential read speed
Any sort of database should be on ssd anyways
9 cameras on the synolgy hybird raid ....i have only used wd ....so from what yall are saying ...i will stick to the wd 8 with 5400
Sequential writes should still be heaps
I mean how many mbps is a camera stream
6?
yea
I wish there were premium 5400 rpm drives with 5 year warranties like the red pro or ironwolf pro tbh
If the price works out it can be better to just shuck 2year drives
isnt the wd 5 year
Self insurance
Red and red plus are only 3 year afaik
I need some fashion advice.
I bought a hat in 2008. A stettson, I believe. Then the incel thing happened, and Notch bought a hat and stuff... so it went on the shelf...
Do you think I could start wearing it again now?
I shave my neck.
Oof, what a bad time to buy one of those 😂
But I do have a beard
Well... corona... but normally, no.
I thought most hats were still tied to nerds 🤷♂️
Well, or to chavs 🤢
In the UK, chavs have even taken to wearing flat caps like they're some kind of farmers or something.
Fashion. Or their attempts at fashion.
Yeah. Flat caps + tracksuits... not so much.
This is an appropriate UK cap
Maybe 80 years ago 🤣
I actually bought mine in London.
My grandfather was a miner in york 80 years ago so it's my only point of reference
What did he do to get deported to the prison colony?
That's a myth. It's actually cool people who came to Australia
Cool people? Nothing but bogans down there.
They just didn't want to hurt the feelings of the lame kids left behind
I'll have you know my neighbour only bought one new jetski last week
Wait, you are in aus?
What did your grandfather make of having to stand up side down?
I'd guess it's okay most of the time. Just makes peeing harder.
😂
It is called down under
Only by outsiders
I think it is clear who is the right way up
Like how Norway is called waffleland
Well your population is about 7 people and 300 farting cows, doesn't count
I'll have you know 1 of those people might actually be a smart cow
I need to see that
You have the right idea though, no snow at Christmas
And Koala bears
Cute af
@dull chasm buy some wd easystores and shuck them, great drives
It's in the link 😂
@clear ferry too late ...wife already ordered
The 7139xxx?
I thought that was a telephone number
That was the price?
Hard to read Norwegian numbers
Yes
I wonder how many kg of trash that is
So, 830k murica bucks
I guess I need to start collecting copper
But realistically, I will never be able to afford that
Ever
That was reasonable tbh
My monthly wage must be your hourly wage :)
Norway's wages are higher, right? Their prices will be higher too.
Hm.. can't even find it now.. only the tophat, and that may be a bit too much...
7 million is a LOT though 😂
It's why the 'let's raise the minimum wage' argument won't solve everything. If everyone has more money, prices go up.
More than I could afford right now but doesn't seem extortionate for a house like that.
I am looking at a place for 1 million at the moment
It is 4-5 years of income 
4-5x seems a good guideline for what you can afford.
About the same living standards as living in the sewer outside the house atx posted
I can borrow 3x what I earn, roughly according to the bank
Only 3x? 😮
No one would ever afford a house in Australia with that rule
What do you do, Michelle? Other than steal trash, of course.
Eat trash
Skin humans
Then kill them.
But not after killing them
Yes
I do alarms, door entry systems, cameras, locks, etc
I am a fault finder and occasional cable noodler
So mostly tidying up after other people
My wife doesn't want to work 5 days a week
She only wants to do 3 days
So her income will always be 3/5th of what it could be
Although the way tax and benefits work it's more than 3/5th the benefit
@last cedar Sorry to bother you again. Do you happen to know if IKEA motion sensor and the buttons/switches are able to work together with home assistant though the IKEA gateway?
That is sad. Thank you.
The automated blinds seem also to work. I guess I will be buying a few bulbs, the motorated blinds and the gateway. But no sensors or switches. Thank you.
🪙 gold 4 u
Consider skipping ikeas gateway and use a zzh!
More i fo about zzh! in #zigbee-archived
Also you need at least 1 switch to pair lights with ikeas gateway
#zigbee-archived for this whole conversation, tbh.
You pair with thr switch, not their gateway, in their eco system

Sorry. Yes
So alarm installers in Sweden aren't paid well? That sucks.
You seem really technical, I assumed they'd pay you better for your skills.
Well, it is a reasonable wage tbh, for Sweden, it isn't bad at least
You remembered to convert 800k AUD into your local currency first, right? 😛
🦝
Granted, that's still high... that's like 600k USD
I get around what average wage is there. Even if the average is 60k sek at the highest, it would still be 10 years wage for that house (720k sek a year)
Granted that house wouldn't be 7M here
Probably closer to 5M at a guess
My work average is 10k nok more than sek in Norway though
Maybe I should ask if there are any positions
We are largest in Scandinavia in our sector
Have denmark and norway too
Do it. Move to atx's street.
@clear ferry didn't know raw meat eaters got paid that much tbh
You can compare homelabs at the weekend.
Moving to Norway from Sweden is easy
I know a lot of people who live in Sweden and work in Norway though
Quite profitable
Living 5 minutes acros the border
Well yeah, but not as nice views :P
Got any Norwat jobs for a Brit? 😂
Well I am a brit too
Doesn't count. You were gone too long, we burned your papers.
@deft pewter :(
You probably want good developers, not just JS devs like me.
I miss Steve Balmer :)
I don't know any of that C stuff.
Need some shitty ones to make the good ones look good
Damn she is cute
So they actually hire remote workers from other countries? The UK aren't making many friends with this Brexit thingamabob.
@deft pewter Five sites up and running 🙂
Told you it wasn't difficult. And unless you get a sudden spike in traffic, your billing won't be nuts either.
Nah, these sites get almost no traffic. Won't be an issue.
trying to figure out how to rewrite urls, looks like i need to use 'lambda' for that which i thnk you mentioned
Lambda is a compute thing. API Gateway is their API tool.
You can map API's to other resources though, either static (like S3) or compute (like Lambda).
Doesn't look too complicated.
Nope. Individual S3 services are fairly simple. Putting them all together is where it sometimes gets tricky.
I signed up for the $3.50 Lightsail instance ... which comes with DNS hosting for up to 3 domains. I'll use it for that one Wordpress site. Although that site is actually never edited, so I might just pull a static version of it and stick it up.
I get why people choose Wordpress but there are alternatives that can be just as good.
Back in the 'norties I used "Movable Type"
I was thinking of putting together a blog and someone mentioned Hugo. Glad I went that route instead of WP.
Means having to write in Markdown and know how to add custom elements for behaviours it doesn't have out of the box... but building a static site and just pushing to S3 is bliss.
the one thing I'm not a fan of is how CloudFront requires me to flush the cache for every edit "or wait a LONG time"
Some of it's just quirks like not being able to do target=_blank with Markdown, which I got round by using a custom shortcode:
<a href="{{ .Get "href" }}" target="_blank">{{ .Get "title" }}</a>
{{- else -}}
<a href="{{ .Get 1 }}" target="_blank">{{.Get 0}}</a>
{{- end }}```
Oh... CloudFront cache invalidation is easy. You can do it via an API. I built that into my GitHub Actions for deploying.
Oi I just started less than 12 hours ago ... one thing at a time 🙂
Our immigration process is easy for anyone inside the EEA afaik
- name: Invalidate Cloudfront cache
uses: chetan/invalidate-cloudfront-action@master
env:
DISTRIBUTION: ${{ secrets.DISTRIBUTION }}
PATHS: '/*'
AWS_REGION: 'eu-west-1'
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}```
Whenever I push to master, my workflow builds, deploys, invalidates cache. Takes under a minute from the commit.
What if I didn't want to immigrate though? Do they hire remote workers that want to stay in their own country? I want that sweet, sweet NOK while living in Newcastle 🤣
Well sure, that is what my new job might be
And UK isn't EEA now... 😦
I created two buckets for each site. A 'maintenance' bucket and an actual site. I think I can have both tied to a single Cloudfront distribution, and change the 'Behavior' to point at the alternate bucket.
I think you just point your DNS records at your distributions. You could update your DNS records to switch too... the DNS records propagate pretty quickly unless you've given them silly TTL's.
Yeah, different ways to solve the same problem I guess. CloudFront actually mentions the changing origins as a way to 'reroute'. So I figured I'd just go that way.
It's been a fun couple of hours anyway.
Glad you're enjoying your tinkering.
You might want to look at CloudFormation now to remove a lot of the manual work where things follow the same pattern.
AWS is just blowing my mind
of course, CloudFormation ...
and the ONLY thing I've found so far where AWS was not also the cheapest option .... was a .nl domain name 🙂
$10 instead of $5 per year
If you really wanted to, you could register it elsewhere and transfer it in.
You'll pay more when the renewal comes up though.
yeah
And watch out... Route53 doesn't support all TLD's.
.nl was on the list, i checked 🙂
All the big ones, just not the cool stuff like .dev
I'm just sticking with my .co.uk and .uk domains for now anyway.
I even found a good hostname for my Lightsail instance
I name all my hosts after different species of the orange .... because my wife's name is Som (which means orange, in thai) and I'm from Holland and so ... yeah. Look, it's more imaginative than planets, alright?
And I found an orange species that grows in the amazon rainforest. Hostname!
But, to go back to my raving about AWS ..... it's insane what it can do! It does all the things!
Ouch. That is an evil one.
I should deepdive more into aws
Haven't touched it since my exam
Eh, I don't know what I'll be working with in 3 months
I find Amazon a fascinating company. How it evolved from selling books online to building AWS, developing bomb-proof data vaults, building their own product lines, etc.
Evil, but fascinating 🙂
AWS snowball is an interesting concept
Is that what that thing is called?
AWS Snowball is a petabyte-scale data transport service that uses secure devices to transfer large amounts of data into and out of the AWS Cloud. Snowball addresses challenges like high network costs, long transfer times, and security concerns to migrate data as efficiently as possible.
Yes
the Snowmobile!
The word petabyte gets me going
I wonder if Duplicati backs up to S3 Glacier.
Doesn't look like it.
Guess I'll stick with Backblaze B2.
Greetings all, I am managing my Home Assistant with external VSCode editor but when I look at my .yaml files there is no code syntax coloring. Can someone point me to which extension I might need and if this is the wrong place can you point me in correct direction?

don't feed them after 00:00 and before 06:00 @deft pewter
Requirements unclear.
Oh, I love them. The rules were just stupid.

Wife made me pick up a bottle of prosecco (which I don't like) to go with the tapas we'd planned for tonight.
As soon as she started her first glass, she decided she didn't like the bottle I bought and told me I'd have to drink the rest.
So... I apologise for anything I say now that I've drank the rest 🤣
we have been drinking seltzers for the last few weeks but the plan tonight is for margaritas
Ah. Clearing out old folders on Windows. It's been counting up for a while...
That's not even the folder that has my Node modules 😂
I have the occasional cocktail. Had a Manhattan last night, it was delicious.
we used to make margaritas quite often but it has been a bit.
My current top 3 is Negroni, Old Fashioned, Manhattan (in that order).
My liquor cupboard is coming along nicely. Will have to try other cocktails soon too.
Good top3. I'd have old fashioned on top, but can't complain
For a while, Old Fashioned was all I'd drink. But yeah, I quite like any whiskey/vermouth based cocktail.
Aha. It finally got done counting:
Classic martinis aren't bad either
Man. If I had all my failed code in one folder, it'd be way more than 40GB.
They had to create an enterprise account to store all my shitty code.

any particular reason?
I like its name.
And it's pretty much the standard implementation.

im talking provider
though i shall now be looking for one that supports openvpn

Yeah... if you find one that doesn't, stay clear.
any recommendations?

In our case, there are multiple drain points. Depending on which one you use, you just have to unblock it.
Some of them you can hook them to the food disposal unit, some you can drain straight forward to the drain line...etc

Im just wondering. Is it just me, or are other people getting multiple voices when using TTS(google_translate_say)? Some sounds really good, some sounds really terrible, and sometimes I even get two different algorithms on the same call(eg. the first sentence using the standard algo, and the second using wavenet).

Have you ever heard Old English spoken? In this video, American, Australian, and Non-Native English speaker from Poland try to understand Old English by ear. It’s part of the Language comparison series on my channel, in which we explore the mutual intelligibility phenomenon between closely related languages.

I just talked myself into making something with a laser and a mirror and then went to go make and and realized I never had a mirror to begin with to use
Lol

good morning
I want more margarita but we are out of limes
lame
I'm about to order a dremel because dremels
Motherbleeper
Why are these tuya WiFi water valve systems so expensive
They are perfect
With solar panels
But $85

Comeon, is chyna
I use my Dremel often actually, but the Dremel holder and puncher I haven't used yet
hodler
Bought this, never used it
Had great ideas
This thread had some interesting stuff 
Does anyone here have experience with Lutron’s Serena shades?
Sounds like #hardware-archived @fervent pulsar
I’m more so looking to get recommendations about motorized shades than device support. Is that still the right room?
Eh, it's a gray zone, but you are probably better off in devices as this channel has a lot more random activity
Okay ty
Ah, finally catching up on 60 minutes
I haven't watched since April 2020
Wonder if something interesting has happened since

🤣
Cowrowna what?
Time to sew some masks
good period of the day
We sew a few
Haven't used them yet
Just use disposable ones for the few areas that require them
Y'all Cray Cray
new outback virus? Roorona 2021?
Crayona

Just wait, I'll be coming to the US to do consultant work after the first wave of Corona is done there
just in time for wave 2
By 2022 you say
lol
I've already removed three hemmoroids and just the other day had a fistula examination, including my previous rectal exam of semen ducts, I'm ready
thats good, just need to fetch a glove https://imgur.com/FQgO7Gv
Cost/benefit. I'm making websites and of course could save money hosting them on my nas and gigabit fiber, but letting 5-600 customers into the nas (even just a jailed cpanel) sounds like a bad idea to me. It's tempting since it's free and plenty of resources...
The downtime... 🤢
Break something and 600 sites go down.
Lose your internet and 600 sites go down.
So many problems with that idea
Agreed
Too much maintenance and can't thinker
Though Synology is a license Monster. Cameras I can understand, but 1000 bucks for 20 email licenses is a rip-off
949 usd my bad it's on discount lol
Synology 
Synology is good, just I don't like the business model upgrading it
Like 200usd for 4gb ram
5 bay expansion 6-700usd
Etc
TrueNAS 😉
And yeah https://www.amazon.com/Synology-Server-MailPlus-20-Licenses/dp/B01EV6TL80 this is for 20 email addresses
Why the hell do you need to pay for email addresses anyway?
Run what? It's an email address.

Or... use your brain and just run a cloud solution.
For web I run cloud
Running hobby stuff on a home server is fine. Never run production stuff from home.
Local Dev nas
Hybrid can be fine
Was just a tempting thought, but it would never work. Can't run production with something that is tinkered with
It runs Plex, torrent etc
And usually can't get reverse DNS private
I have.... No issues with 200 days uptime on truenas and if I bothered having a second system it would be seamless failover with scale in production
Are you hosting production at home?
And I tinker a lot
Depending on what you mean by production, I run a lot of internet facing services, including some forums and webpages
That I have run for over a decade
Nothing business critical?
Heck, some of them almost two
Just fun stuff?
Hehe
I was searching for hosting yesterday and it's heavy competition
The prices are unnatural low now
Not really, they've been good for a few years if you know what you need
And not just try to replicate your on premise in the cloud
Depends yes. Vps is an option if you just want the machine. For me a managed wp server makes more sense for wp customers. No need to bother with server, updates, caching etc
I can see that
My point is more it's a solution for a lot of needs. Don't overdo it
Setting up a redundant AWS with full world replicated for the local tennis club doesn't make sense
Don't need it fully redundant, it will still be 20x better than self hosting
Huh? You're talking like setting up a basic static site on AWS takes effort or money.
It's almost zero effort and zero cost. S3 static hosted site, Route53 domain, CloudFront distribution for the SSL.
Trash panda!
It was a joke on overdoing it
Anyone got any automations for working out the best sleding weather? 😂
ECS might make more sense for "a bunch of wordpress" though
@last cedar easy, look out window, and yell if snow
But you can overdo it at home too. AWS is simpler than figuring out how to get that 99.999% uptime on a NAS 🤷♂️
if >2 then scream else die
I am not fully knowledgeable in aws
Made a mistake to backup to AWS before and got a bill of 1k bucks
If you want to host businesses, you should become
Yeah I probably should do some AWS courses
I have no idea how many terabytes you backed up to cost that much... 🤣
1 gazillion
S3 Standard - General purpose storage for any type of data, typically used for frequently accessed data
First 50 TB / Month $0.023 per GB
Next 450 TB / Month $0.022 per GB
Over 500 TB / Month $0.021 per GB
Not too much, daily backup of a webpage
2 cents per gigabyte.
Nah. You weren't just doing a daily backup of a simple site. You fucked up.
They didn't decide to bill you $1k for nothing 🤷♂️
Nono


$1k is 50TB of storage for a month.
So it started at 100gb and got huge
😂
Think it made a new daily

Wouldn't need to back up to AWS if you just hosted in AWS in the first place.

Yes I get it, AWS is good :p
Current month-to-date balance for January 2021, the exchange rate for the Payment Currency is estimated.
10.54 USD which converts to 7.77 GBP
I hate the webui
I'm using 0.8% of the free allowance for Lambda execution time.
Is it still one million?
Looks like it's made by a 11 year old in 96
1 million executions. 400k execution seconds.
Already over my head lol
Aws API 
I really need to learn more about aws
If you ignore the registrar costs, the rest is consistently low:
If I change jobs I guess I have to learn azure too 🤢
WorkMail is expensive. Might switch that to something else but my domain's with AWS Route53.
But is it really a platform for wp sites where caching etc is very important?
CloudFront...
That doesn't help on wp enough
I have a static site hosted in S3 with CloudFront in front. It's fast. https://blog.jlweston.co.uk/posts/monitoring_your_services/
Why wouldn't it help with WP? Caching is caching.
The thing I could see is that AWS could make it easier to put client pages on server closer to the customer
And more
AWS is about 300 services. You can do anything.
It's difficult to decide how to architect an application but once you've built it, it's perfect.
Can you make a raccoon friendly valve locator?
Yes
😍 😍 😍
But again need to setup each client on each s3? So if i move 600 customers it will be a huge job
There's a service for that... CloudFormation.
API
Screw API calls. You'd still have to write a script to programmatically create resources. That's what CloudFormation is for.
True
Create a base template, then have a CD process that implements that template.
Something like puppet?
If the infrastructure is identical except for application/domain names, that's the only variable to pass in.
Similar
I've never used Puppet but it sounds similar.
The thing with AWS is that you only need AWS. If you wanted to, you could even host your code repos with them.
So in theory one server pr customer?
Servers? 🤢
Serverless
If you're talking about static sites, use S3.

Instance
No, no instances.
You are still thinking 2000s mindset
Cloud formation you say?
S3 buckets are more like folders. AWS knows how to serve the content up behind a domain name.
Im trying to learn lol
Here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/website-hosting-custom-domain-walkthrough.html
Walk through a code example of how to set up a static website using a custom domain that is registered with Route 53.
End to end tutorial. Takes maybe 30 minutes to do for the first time. If you're going to do it 600 times, learn CloudFormation.
Yes. We're going to form some clouds. Hopefully snow clouds. And if we do it right, it's gonna be good sledding weather.
And dynamic?
But... who needs PHP?
Wp users lol
Peehayjpee
Are they actually using the admin console for it to create content? If not, just get them to provide static content.
WP sucks...
Sometimes customers get what they want
But if they really want WP... https://aws.amazon.com/lightsail/projects/wordpress/
There's a service for that.
I'm not exaggerating when I say there are hundreds of services. This 'all services' view doesn't even fit on my 1440px tall monitor:
Lightsail apparently supports wordpress natively if you must live in the 2000s
And several of those links take you to a group of services.
That's what I just shared, atx. Catch up.
Sounds like 600 lightsail instances. Maintainance hell unless they come as a wp service
But lets see i need to dig deeper into the pro and cons
Sounds like me

Here's one for you, atx. A song about being British: https://open.spotify.com/track/6a2MMhyy5LqoDfap5OFz6K?si=mR9hpXYDQdupPd1ZOu3EOA
Hi Folks, i will return to HA after 2 years Break.
And wow now we got 3 Versions right ? What is the easiest and best way to Run IT atm ?
I am Planning using a Intel nuc or on a Synology Diskstation. On both aus VM or in a docker Container ?
Thanks
Docker seems to be popular. There is a channel for it #449717345808547842 more info there!
The sensible way
@night zodiac think I got the hang of eagle in 30 minutes or so, was quite straightforward
Is that a baby yeeter?
I honestly have no idea
No, I think they're full-sized yeeters.
But... they're fishing rod holders: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Automatic-Spring-Fishing-Rod-Holder-Bracket-Pole-Ground-Stand-Support-Accessory/392904190218
those automatic fishing rod holders have been around for a long time
was always funny to watch people not get their fishing rob securely set in correctly and watch it launch the rod a few feet
I told you already, they're full size. Baby yeeters are way smaller.
ones made for ocean fishing gotta be heavy duty
can't imagine the tension on those suckers
what? all that shit talking you were doing months ago about cases being down coming back to bite your ass you say?
Nah, we have still had so few deaths and cases it isn't even close to the US soap opera

well when my town is the size of your country, there is about to be alittle more that can go on
well i guess if i can fit 5 of your homes in my closet...
I think my couch that I ordered in November might actually be arriving soon
Purchased on 11/03/2020. Delivery on 02/04/2021.
murica dates
🤢
I have had an empty living room for months
Just sit on your girlfriend
I like her to sit on me
how you find pic of me
That is my stomach before and after having a shit, in reverse
I kid you not
My wife has a Nintendo Wii, with the balance board, after taking a shit it said "welcome player 3"
I feel like I haven't paid for this couch
they are going to take a chunk of money out of my shit. I better invoice a nerd
fuck. I have to drive to my parents today. snowing pretty neatly
Oooh blark and son is back
I thought your wife was named Blark for a second
and then I realized I don't think you have a son
maybe you do
atx and blark, sitting in a tree
F I S T I N G
lmao
bird people are weird
I agree. I like birds but I could never really imagine getting one to put in a cage.
Interesting, the UK, Italy and the us have never had mandatory BCG vaccination
And are also some of the most deadly countries
It was until 2005, after which it became targeted apparently
Really, Wikipedia said it was never mandatory
I don't know whether it was mandatory, or just "by default"
If you went to school, you got it
It helps us keep the autism levels down.
Same here up to 2009, we got it in 6th grade
Autism or BCG?
vaccines here are not mandatory but are strongly encouraged.
Unless you're in California, then they're some conspiracy by Bill Gates.
covid vaccines are vapor-ware, like the PS5, I wouldn't worry about it
Is that why they need to be stored at such low temps?
Explains why @clever mortar lives in Africa
Where else do you get all that free energy?
Looks like something a norwat would drive..
pretty sure atx is bigger than that car lol
It looks like the car all Muricans have to drive in five years @forest edge
that would never happen
