ban! ban! ban!
the Z-350 is pretty easy to shut down properly, turn the output off but leave it plugged in, it will then clean itself
lol
๐
tell that to the users..
some do it when they lose dmx control, many ways but they are mostly broken because the user didn't do it properly
ie. power off, cold and blind
yes, this one does the cleaning too when losing dmx, but it can also run without dmx
the HZ-100 is more tricky... there is only one way to power it down, and that is just to kill it...
we have one nice device which screwes up the dmx network when connected to it, at some point, it kinda works over dmx but..
yeah its isolated alright, i think it got fixed too, can't remember, its been quite a time since last gig..
Most of my stuff is something I purchased broken, then fixed them
home festival cancelled second year in a row, there is some hope for the late summer festivals still but many from the early july already cancelled
good stuff, i would be happy to know you and live nearby to bring my shit to your workshop ๐
Pretty amazed by this, I converted a moving head from HID to LED
using some 230V 100W led's from ebay and some cheap cpu coolers from aliexpress
needed that cpu cooler too, the air coming out was almost as warm as it was with the HID bulb in
dunno how many watts this had but it sucked big time!
oh stay away from those! Just like Velcro! It's a total rip-off
I am selling my vacuum cleaner, it is just gathering dust.
Nn everyone!!! ๐ฆ
nn!
gn
bloody hell, got stuck watching photos from festivals few years back, there is still tiny (no i'm not optimistic) chance some would actually happen this year still
that, or..
That sounds almost perfect. All I'd change is I'd leave the gin and tonic out.
and drink the concentrated mango pure? ๐ฎ
think you could also drink eggs
haze from the Z-350 is pretty good too, not as fine as from the HZ-100, but still pretty good.
(no that wasn't drinkable, a weird machine that made some sort of egg thingie...)
I like to do cable management....
it isn't actually that bad, I got different length EIC cables
a rare few people have a truss inside their apartment ๐
whats your control surface?
Always good to have a bit of fun
I am using MyDMX 3.0
not crazy advanced, but gets the job done
that's the main thing, whatever suits you
I made this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csnsxLBQ1gY just to try artnet on an esp8266
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8TgAGcwD9Q Another thing I made for the haunted house... random weather generator. In this example timing between effects is set way too low, just to demonstrate
Using a raspberry pi with pygame to run the ambient rain as a constant background music, then mixing the different sounds in on top of it
Also added so it could control dmx, so if it found a .dmx file in the same directory as the .wav file, it would start another thread and run it in parallel of the sound file
so it was possible to use strobe only for when the lightening sound was triggered
@sleek bear i might want to pick your brain about a project that just landed in my lap
2 snow cone trucks that need a shitload of LEDs on the outside
i've added them to my house before using the WLED firmware with arduinos and ws2812b strips..
but never done a car/truck
would i need a giant cap between battery and strips to not kill the battery?
12v strips suggested?
aluminum diffusers for heat dissipation?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6wD-qMT-ys Here it should look like a greenhouse, filled with plants and actors in planlike clothes and plantlike makeup. When entering the light is on, sound is pleasant and nice. When an actor presses the trigger it will fade the light out while fading to a more hostile sound while the actors also gets hostile. Also a fun project... the dimmer was just so hard to control, the time it took to react changed depending on the ambient temperature
I'm surprised @lapis cipher hasn't nudged people over to #diy-archived yet
Capacitors is only to help with current spikes, as soon as it has delivered what it can, it too want to get juice from the battery
right
this is absolutely off-topic ๐
got nothing to do with HA ๐
i know i can do multi channel with an esp32 and WLED firmware so i can figure that part out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlsgwyJ1UEQ no one ever found my easter egg :/
just choosing the right diffusers and strips is what i could use help with
and safely powering the strips
i actually feel sorry i made the comment to go to #cameras-archived as i am no authority here. I only said it because i felt people who would actually be interested of the talk are missing it because i think this channel is for the ones who are unable to even install that shit ๐
The same argument can be made for all this DIY talk.
true, they never followed the hint so neither will we ๐
lol, now looking through old videos instead.... helped a friend with his lights and mydmx..... and we needed someone to dance... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bKL87s2e2s
i should probably just shut up and go play games and become Me(tm) again ๐
Let us know how many times you die.
ok folks, lets move this non-interesting talk to #diy-archived
you'll be first to know but i know it already, many
Ok. Hereโs off topic. Should my tomato plants be in full sun
Tomatoes are vigorous growers that require maximum sun. They will need 6 to 8 hours of sun a day, so plant in the sunniest parts of your garden
that's HA-related since you are using it to monitor the variables of the growing metrics
Nope. All in my head
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITgwhuxrmJU I had a candy grabber online too, at Halloween I tried to make it spooky....
And after a couple beers I will lose track
Maybe Iโll automate the drip irrigation
@sleek bearwhat did you use to make the light flicker with the sound? or was the sound from a relay?
The lights were driven by relay, that was what I had laying around... bonus feature was it sounded a bit more retro ๐
yea the click. ideal click noise would be exactly like a ballast flicker sound but that is hard to replicate using anything other than a ballast lol
Finished printing both halves of a new custom split 60% mechanical keyboard shell
Black PETG, so it's shiny AF ๐

Good to see some more mechanical KB love in here.
Always :3
I didn't go custom but I've been really happy with my Drop Alt so far.
QMK is great fun too. I had no idea keyboards were so customisable.
just gonna grab my guns and go die..
My fingers don't know what to do with more than laptop travel anymore
laptop ๐คข
There's only about 5-6mm of travel if I bottom out these keys.
I know chiclet keys are way less but 6mm ain't much.
the old macbook butterfly keyboard was too little, though. the current gen is about right for me
Butterfly ๐คข
I just skipped that whole generation
I have a 2018(?) MBP and hate the frigging keyboard. Can't use it at all.
Fortunately, I always have a real keyboard.
waited until they swapped out the keyboard and returned the physical esape key
If I have to start using the MBP on the go, I'll have to get work to replace it.,
i think i am abusing my mac, its mostly a stand for crisps and candy while its rather mint condition device, a bit old but at least it has connectors, maybe keyboard also, haven't opened for a while
should probably sell it, haven't really used much at all, they are still paying some 500-600 eur for those
nice, i was dead tired earlier today and now its 3am and i feel no hurry to bed..
need to count animals also, i think i've lost one. Not bad considering i had 12 on the start
mac is alright, its just my fault for not knowing all the fancy shortcuts and stuff, its beautiful machine
@tidal bronze are you at the vax concert?

worse part about that image is that there are people out there who watch tv around others and gab the whole time. I mean wtf.. aliens
Besides who even puts their tv outside without a roof or anything
It's meant to be outside
but yes, who does that
it is definitivly a thing for the 5%s
$4000-$6000 pricetag
not even 5% alot of people actually put tv's outdoors. they just buy those covers for tvs
I have seen one outdoor TV in my life, and it was at the house of the richest man in norway ๐คฃ
neighbor pulls out a projector to watch football games during the summer on his back deck. how he can stand to watch that shit being thrown on his siding is beyond me lol
finally moved away from the bar card. had that since the start. feels weird lol
That's because outdoors is only good for reindeer
I've seen thousands of outdoor tvs here
the moment you realize norwegians never seen life without snow
Actually we haven't
wherever you live in the country we will have snow in winter
from 2 weeks to 6 months a year
Snow is proof that global warming is a myth
I wonder how long you all would survive if the average temps stayed around 30c
30c......so still winter?
I would just transform into a bald raccoon
And raw meat would almost be cooked at 30C
almost
I was meaning that with a giant /s by the way. I noticed in just the last 12 years how mild the winters have got here in Sweden
We always recycle, try to use car as little as possible, green electric, feels like it isn't enough
30? We have that in summer
But I'm more worried about the sea temperatures at that point
We have a saying in Norway even if Norway thinks so, we can't save the world alone
We are doing almost everything possible, but with 0.1% of the world population it doesn't matter much
The actions of individuals barely matter. We should all make an effort but it's nothing in comparison to the actions of businesses, especially manufacturing.
yep
Wasn't something recently published that shows that China are responsible for 70% of emissions?
I know they're quite populous but not 70% of the world's population.
quick google found this
dude i went down a rabbit hole on youtube a while back
the shit companies get away with in other countries is so sad
like clothing manufacturers that put all kinds of shit directly into rivers
and other places that have to farm rice in fields littered with all kinds of crazy heavy metals
it's really fucked up
That's disgusting. Russia had that chemical leak/dump recently that polluted a massive river.
China do the open mining of lithium.
didnt mean to link a political article
but that city.. asbest russia is fucking insane
doctors in the hospital will see asbestos related illnesses and legally cant say anything is wrong with them
one doctor had a big piece of asbestos on his shelf and touched it bare hands saying it's fine
fuckin crazy
๐คฏ
and they sell it to india and other countries that cant afford to ban it
and their government is too busy wanting to be cheap
shit's whack
Yeah, the way some countries punish people so harshly for speaking the truth is worrying ๐ข
a la america?
We have to find a way to lift everyone else up out of that.
Haha. As much as some Americans would claim otherwise, they have free speech.
Russia, China, North Korea. All authoritaran, and speaking out against the regime gets you in trouble.
if you get deep enough as a journalist i would argue that is a moot point
Smoke machine recap... It is now working as intended... And less smelly
We have a saying in Sweden.
A raccoon in the hand is worth 2 in the tree.
We are making good progress on the automated computer museum, this will be part of the desktop ui.
Good job!
Sweeeeeeeeet!
Thatโs a neat project
We have scripts to turn on/talk about (tts) each computer. so the automated tour runs them in order with a wait for the media player to change from playing in between.
Are the waits configurable? For say, if someone has a question and you donโt make it to the next station in time?
idk, we also have dash buttons for each computer to trigger the turn on/talk scripts. the goal is to have many options for giving tours.
Nice.
Two raccoons? Impossible
maybe i could make a true false variable that could be toggled and then have extra wait statements that check to see if its true in between each station so we could pause it.
Not ๐ฏ familiar with what you are doing. I just know defined waits can cause issues when the human factor is involved. Just a suggestion. If you have buttons, I wouldnโt even use waits. What if someone skips a station.
skips are fine with the buttons, they each trigger a specific script
So, it sounds like you have already solved the problem I raised with buttons
your point about if people have questions during the automated tour is something im gonna work on
This just made it sound like once everything started, it couldnโt be stopped
that is true with the automated tour script, im gonna try to add pause
good stuff
dunno how the space is, first thing that came to mind was a motion sensor in very front of the machine to trigger things also. But, i read its all work in a progress and in a very good progress so not really worried here ๐
tosses @last cedar $1 shake it!
That's a very generous tip. The average raccoon earns less than $5 a month.

@deft pewter you clearly have no idea about the black market for doormats
Which I can't disuss here....
we have a place for doormats that is safe

And if you want to buy one, she'll keep it safe again soon after.
Absolutely
@green inlet success! the automated tour is now pauseable

Funny but sad
Just like when frenck DMs me, I always suspect it is tinkerer who has hacked him
And trying to honeypot me

Today it will be decided if we will use the Janssen vaccine or not


wtf is the janssen vaccine? is that like the walmart version or something?
The Johnson and Johnson one
ah, never heard of that refereed as janssen here
not even sure they lifted the ban on that one here yet or not
The official name for it is Janssen afaik
johnson and johnson is more well known here which is why it's likely just called that
Feeble minds and all that
more like just makes no sense to refer to it as just janssen
According to your own government it does
sure they do, they have to be technical but when it comes to news reports etc it's just called johnson and johnson lol
so norway hasn't gotten vaccines yet?
we are sticking with moderna and pfizer so far
astrazeneca got blocked
and probably janssen will too
thought astrazeneca was still in like phase 1 or some shit
it's been distributed widely for a long time
scary
currently being polluted with india dropping the ball
We have astrazeneca
Delivered from the motherland
Yaml sucks that way sometimes...
Good thing your syntax highlighter caught it, or you could spend WEEKS debugging that.
sorry to hear that.
maybe the next pandemic will fair slightly better with covax being put together
these japanese mini autonomous robot tournaments are starting to show up in my youtube feed. things are pretty neat!
makes me thing of those robot fights in big hero 6
cept these things are not fighting
So apparently Janssen and Astra are exempt from our vaccination program now
but people who want can voulounteer to get those vaccines if they accept risks and read pampflets
so that pretty much leaves the ronald mcdonald one right?
Pfizer and Moderna yes
moderna is the most used one here so far. pfizer seems to be what the cheaper places use as well which is weird
Pfizer is the most used one here by far, probably 80\20
two shots a year can kiss my ass
wish the other didn't have the blood clot thing, altho it was a rather small number of people who got it
Might be behaving differently based on genetic makeup too, since everyone I've heard in the US who got the Pfizer got bedridden for atleast a day, while here in Norway I haven't even heard of anyone being home from work after getting it
So maybe bloodclot would be less likely in the US population
yea the after effects of the vaccines are all over the place from no reaction to feeling like you got the flu
I still only know one person who has had it knowingly here
he still has no sense of taste or smell 14 months later
yea but with your all's diet aren't you born like that?

and affects younger people. If you are over 50 it's far less.
the one shot of pfizer gives you like 80/85% immunity which is still better than some of the one shot vaccines. The second shot gets you to 95%
they debunked that whole which is better thing
they are all pretty equal
moderna and pfizer had started months earlier so the testing pool is much bigger than what like the johnson and johnson had when they started telling people what the rates were
as time goes by they are pretty sure all the numbers for those 3 atleast will equalize out
the blood clot side effect was more prominent in older people not younger
although it's still far far less likely compared to the likelyhood of getting a clot from smoking, birth control pills etc
Or from covid, as I understand it?
Depends on how much COVID is in the population
Some areas you be more likely to die of a clot from the vaccine, than to die from COVID
Moonbase Alpha doesn't count
Short term, maybe. It's an infinitely complex question because humans are involved.
Humans are pretty much a sure way of messing up any confidence level
Except where a button is marked do not press, when the confidence that it'll be pushed is 100%
Last words ever spoken: "What does this do?"
And that's why Atlantis sunk
I got the pfizer vaccine in norway already

thank you internet, you seem to be having a great monday, too!
You should try something better than 3G 2G mobile connections
i'm still yet to get my vaccine so kinda limited with the options..
I'd try upgrading to some wet string and a couple of cans
i really appreciate you all putting the effort to help me with the connection with your ingenious suggestions
I mean, it's that or try RFC2549, which replaced the problematic RFC1149
Or really, just say no to Internet
Cry bandwidth and let slip the fibre seeking backhoes!
must confess i can't remember those out of my head, no point googling since my bits ain't reaching the docs
ups, used all the bandwidth for say that, and this
was really fun working today over that, called it quits few hours early, especially those two video conferences were great, "i can see you pixeled guys but can't understand what you are saying" and yet todays most important agenda was me not having camera..
RFC1149 - POAC
RFC2549 - POAC with QoS
||PoAC == Packets Over Avian Carrier||
i suppose shooting pigeons isn't the right approach to start with this? Its just.. the only way for me to get them..
uuh obs added official virtual camera support, i wonder if can abuse that to get me some video presence..
Can only recommend getting the bill gates one. Having constant 5G everywhere ever since
Even down at my obligatory doormat stash
i almost already got a time for the 5g but others were quicker it seems..
doormats.. so even raccoons have better internet..
I am the server doormat apex predator. Get off my turf
Or I will steal your doormats
And pee on your stuff
Hi btw
i am trying to suck bits from your country but looks very much like your raccoons are squeezing the cable..
right on, spare connection is better, should make it primary
not great, not terrible
should check the bands and figure out what gives out the best performance, also to upgrade to better carrier aggregation device but every fsck'ing piece costs..
I have no use for data
I have doormats
Actually
If I took doormat enterprises inc online I would make more
@last cedar im tempted to get this one...
Yes please do, I can then add that one to my portfolio
hmph, can't get streams work with obs ๐ฆ
should be almost plug'n'play or at least used to be..
vlc doesn't like the streams anymore either, what the heck
did everybody lose their inttternets or why so silent?
sorry, i might have stolen your bits while struggling with mine but hey, it was for a good cause!
Nooo everyone is out of stock of the Coral USB Accelerator
sorry, i had to have them all to boost my pi 3b+ WITH sd card to get frigate run nicely
You just need one for frigate and thatโs what I need it for
should have said that before i ordered them all... no wonder its not like 10000 fps
22 weeks out when ordering
in theory it should but its not
I may as well buy a M1 Mac mini and use the Apple neural engine
Cats are fast
not sure if i clicked all of them as well, need to check, ordered quite a few things
Cats are indeed fast

I have been thinking of upgrading my old nuc i3 as im doing a lot of ai face detection etc and was about to throw a laptop out. What do you guys think about using this specs as general smarthome. https://valid.x86.fr/ugszgq
i7 for HA is overkill imo. sure there might be some addons or other things you may want to install along side HA that could/would need a beefier cpu but in general I7 is just overkill
that's what coral is made for?
Its more general video processing, ha etc. its that or nothing i was sbout to throw it as i dont use it. Was thinking the cuda cores would help
Its overkill for plain ha yes but thinking proxmox
if you mention ha here we recommend you with raspi with sd-card ๐
Lol no
but you already did ๐
Im way over rpi
hiding it in proxmox ain't helping ๐
video processing is a broad term. depending on what you are doing the onboard gpu may not even be used or helpful for that matter.
Frigate that use coral and second take that use cuda and avx2
It would be a small lab i was thinking
there is plenty of talk about frigate in this server. i would suggest doing some searching. I dunno how many cameras you have but if you got a coral already you could plug that into a rpi and it would handle a good chunk of cameras just by itself
cameras/frigate -> #cameras-archived and as a bonus you've got the resident Frigate creator around as well
Rpi will never run ha in my home
but it could ๐
I have no issue with frigate
Been running it since release
Im.running nuc today
And its fine
But if i can upgrade why not
A laptop is built in ups, can move it etc
sure, go ahead, computers get old despite they handle the workload now
Hah
Talking about Frigate I started on it last week. It's growing on me quite a lot
No Coral yet but running 4 cameras on an Odroid N2+ not bad at all

@forest edge but do you have zero emission lawn care?
that is the dumbest thing I ever seen
and yes, we have goats if you want to be technical
Lmao. Saw it over the weekend and thought you would find it VERY interesting
I bet they charge more for that too and I bet you cali's eat that shit up lol
I would go for it just for low noise.
get better insulation for your house
i have a really small yard so it works out very well
i want to let it overgrow with mint so all the insects stay away
and when you mow it smells like christmas
then you find out that those mowers can't be recycled and end up creating more trash than normal gas ones lol
who says im a tree hugger? could care less about the environment
But 3 or 4 guys running gas things is pretty loud.
but its quieter than a regular mower
and does a decent job
but batteries wear out quick
so stop hiring people to do shit you can do yourself lol
so you might have a point on its longevity
batteries get stupid hot after being run for only 15-20 minutes
That's what AC powered mowers are for
Quiter than gas ones yet run as long as you want
I tried, it's very hard and stressful ๐
2 stroke garden tools are terrible at emissions
Likely far worse than your car
Actually I looked it up
It's far far far far worse

Forgets that AdGuard is running on it and I take my internet down...
pi's are cheap. get another to dedicate to adguard and you won't have those issues
true. I've got another Pi4 8Gb sitting in the rack not doing anything at the moment.
actually, now that I'm thinking, I could have a second AdGuard running and act as DNS 2 on my network. Can keep the one on the HA Pi as the primary and the other act as the secondary.
don't have a pi2 or 3 laying about? 8gb pi4 for adguard seems a little.. wasteful lol
agreed. all my Pis are 4s. Just started getting into them last year. Have 4 of them at the moment. 2 not in use. Agreed that it is overkill but I will think of some other stuff to put on it. Maybe a transmission server sharing Linux images or something.
one Pi for Home Assistant, second has NextCloud and Plex (don't want to put too much more on that one but that is the one that has all the storage space for the network)

etcd -> ETSYDEE
Any linux gurus here? I am as i said yesterday going to use a poweful laptop for a ยซhomelabยป with ha and others, and wanted this scenario: create a virutal eth, if cable plugged in, use eth, if eth unplugged use wifi without the consumer (docker, ha, proxmox etc) knowing if its wifi or eth. Is that possible?
while I go
etcd -> E T C D
why on earth would you ever let your homelab switch from wired to wireless
Just don't @late gate
In general it should not be something i ever use, but if for example i have a zigbee or so thing that i cannot move it would be easier to just bring the laptop closer
Sometimes its no choise
sure it is
buy more mains powered devices

When i paired hue last time they refused to pair unless the coordibator was close. I managed to reach 4 lights in the garden, but the 5th i could not reach even if the 4 others was 3m apart.
what coordinator ?
Slaesh
Im planning to start migrating to z2m again you see
I thought you was z2m fan
Im running zha
But not looking forward to re pair all
Did you migrate or just started fresh?
that was a move from hue \ tradfri \ xiaomi -> z2m
Ah
Its a theoretical migrate route from zha to z2m but it didnt work fir me as my zha pan is 5 digits. Z2m via ha wanted max 4
My plan was to copy nvram from sleash, put it on the zzh! Then start fresh with slaesh on z2m and start slowly. That way i should be able to have no downtime
I prefer slaesh over zzh!

Some people use something called IOT Link for sensor data from a windows computer, if that's what you're after.
just a simple app

Yeah, besides the sensors, the apps are just browser wrappers.
Good with sensor data though

@clear ferryyea.. see rpi taking over! https://www.servethehome.com/tinypilot-voyager-kvm-raspberry-pi-remote/
What are you talking about
It's the most elegant solution I've ever seen
Certainly not hacky
I got one of those cheap HDMI to USB capture devices that's built on. I'm impressed, really.
I should get one of those
there is pi-kvm which is cheaper. diy but that voyager is an all in one. still think it's price tag is alittle retarded but we
I have a crap of old VHS home videos my mum wants me to digitize
Great for little troubleshooting tasks where you can just barely fit your laptop.
I have a VHS player with hdmi
Oh it's NOT for digitizing stuff.
It's like $10. What did you expect?
how the hell did you get a vhs player with an hdmi?
ah
Quite common back in the day
for the combo, not the just vhs
There were some HDMI VHS players made in that weird short period...
atleast not around here
most common around here was component not hdmi during those days
I've heard they're actually the best way to digitize tapes. Potential for way better quality than converting it to DVD first.
SCART ftw!
I just bought a cheap usb capture dongle and hooked it up to a cheap vhs player
knew i was only going to use it once so was not about to invest. 20 bucks ws my limit lol
@low harness I saw that you started working on 2.0 for the hass-fontawesome component and the change on how to load the pro icons. With fontawesome 6, they're adding thin icons as well to the pro set. How are you planning on distinguishing between the thin and light pro icons later on if we have to use the fapro prefix for 2.0?
Filenames
It will be up to the user to add the icons they want and name them however they want.
You could e.g. have unicorn-duotone.svg and unicorn-thin.svg and use them with fapro:unicorn-duotone and fapro:unicorn-thin.
And since the cat is out of the bag, I guess...
But any further discussion about this goes in #frontend-archived
Ah, good to know.. Was just curious ๐
pay for icons? gross
paicons
@forest edge hey we spoke before about the silica gel diffusers. can I friend add you and PM to discuss a bit more?
you wish atx
@hollow glacierI don't have any of those and atx there is a resident led strip dude. I think i only said something about how bad they look when they have low led counts lol
yeah you did
funny enough- the guy actually wants the led circles to show up through diffusers
why
it's for a snow cone truck and he already has one like that...
I printed my own diffuser for the wifes teams cube
and the fleet all look the same
why would he want them diffused just to to be shown through lol
i dont think he has much choice in the matter
well atx can i do the same with you
even printing it very thin with a cloudy filament I can't see the individual leds
using a regular clear filament that would probably be easy
yeah i've done that with my 3d printer for lights on it but i dont print in asa or abs to be able to print stuff for outdoor use in texas..
y'all
if the led count is low enough you can see them regardless cause the other emitters are not close enough to "blend" in the light
that should highly depend on type of diffuser material and other factors
course atx primarly uses pastel colors which is kind of pre-diffused colors to start with lol
About to start an enterprise project on gitlab, in particular ci/cd

homelab server with proxmox or vmware?
Run vmware under a hyperV that is running on a vm on proxmox
im referring to ESXi
VMWare > Proxmox
Can you run Proxmox in a Docker container?
Anything you can carry can be stolen
No, wrong quote, ffs
does the free version of esxi support gpu passthrough?
Google says no.
some say yes on google so a bit confusing
they say just add "hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = "FALSE" and nvidia will passthrough
I will just try
isnt it if you join wmug you get license for cheap?
It does do passthrough
My HBA is passed through
Tried a GPU about 5 years ago and it was a pain, I gave up
Was a GT710
peace be with you all
yep, esxi free does gpu pass through as does every other hypervisor except hyperv?
you canโt pass through a mouse or keyboard except you have a whole second usb controller
really? Does it not have usb-passthrough capabilities?
I will try with proxmox first as I can run portainer directly on the host and not mess with passthrough for things that need cuda etc
hid devices specifically, you either use a second mouse/kb or a whole usb controller to pass through.
esxi will not let go of the first pair of hid usb devices
lol wow, and considering iPhones needs to be on 14.5 for the tracking, thats impressive

it's not forced though

Got second Pi running AdGuard. Glad I got it done when I did because my HA Pi went down last night. It kept dropping and then flat-out refused to boot because I didn't have PoE hat seated properly. Seated and works fine. So now I have DNS1 and DNS2 set on router. Useful for HA reboots not taking down my internet...

There's no lactose in cheese (except semi-cheeses like mozarella). Literally unwatchable.
Normally, I'd assume the allergic/intolerant person knows their needs best... but from the rest of this guys videos I say it's more likely he just never bothered to look that up either...
Not sure of the best place to ask this question: I have HAASKA working and controlling devices with Alexa. I want to utilize this same integration, to have automation trigger notifications and have Alexa say whatever the notification is that I want it to let me know about.
I've added some "Intents" to the configuration .yaml. And it seems to like however it is written, so now how would I call that intent to test it with Alexa?
Thanks. Rob I'll try there.

Dave shows you inside the MDF communications room in his building and all the fibre optic installations, including the new Fibre To The Premises (FTTP) NBN (National Broadband Network), and discusses the insanely high prices and the politics involved in getting decent internet in one of the biggest business parks in Sydney.
Forum: http://www.ee...
It's all political so it's impossible to discuss
Business internet prices are not comparable to residential though
atleast you obviously don't have a monopoly issue lol
you could use something like this for a light board I use similar https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001356648160.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.14d715e1dNzMXg&algo_pvid=null&algo_expid=null&btsid=0b0a556a16208221879275579e8fba&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb201603_

interesting
you would just need a constant current and heat sink for it
yea before nbn if you wanted anything over 3 megabit it cost ya lots of $$$ here. Wholesale 1gbit layer 2 dark fiber we were paying $5,400 aud then you had to buy transit (internet) on top
laughs in FTTH since 2004
We only got FTTH 6 months ago, and there's a lot of the UK that doesn't yet, and may never
for $400 NBN will give you a yes or no answer if you can have ftth here
always throws me off when you guys talk about fiber cause I keep forgetting your fiber is not the same as ours lol
It keeps you regular.
Your fiber is optical? ๐ค What is the other type of fiber? Copper?
we don't refer to to our connection in the same terms.
we have had fiber since like the 70's or so
but that connection point has always remained relatively the same
we don't use FTTx when we talk about it. the term fiber for us is anything 1gup/dn+ and cable/broadband for anything lower than that
So you use fiber as a marketing term instead of to talk about the material used?
pretty much
Fiber's been around here for ages, just not as far as the home.
I guess we all been on FTTC since like forever, but a few optional choices would bring it to FTTN but again it's murky because for residential coax can bring the same speeds so it would be FTTC to coax but with gig+ speeds.
I'm finally on FTTH after a long wait. It's funny... BT can't be bothered upgrading the area but Virgin Media came round and did fiber (they used to do coax only).
I don't need the best tier, so I get a pretty cheap deal for 350Mbps. Could probably go past 1gig if I paid more.
that is pretty much our cable speeds lol
unless you pay for more
our biggest issue was monopoly but then after google fiber came around and shaked the tree that's when additional shit start cropping up
Yeah, your monopolies on telecoms are nuts.
Not everywhere here has a great choice but it's still choice.
Got a couple of cities that have their own networks but it's rare. Hull is the only big place that comes to mind.
thankfully over the past 15 or so years thier grip isn't as firm as it once was. I remember a time back when at&t owned everything, you couldn't have a phone or anything without going through them and they use to "rent" the actual phones out
one good thing that came out of this pandemic was the governments involvement to push broadband out to rural areas. those poor people been on dsl this whole time lol
my farm would be dsl lol
Yeah, we're trying to improve rural areas too. It's expensive to add the infrastructure but the telecoms providers get government grants to help.
We want to move out of the city if I can keep working remotely, so I hope some of the villages have fiber by the time we move ๐
our providers have no excuse. it was pure greed
It's scary that so many towns don't even have decent broadband yet, or some parts of big cities...
we have fiber main lines buried all over the US since it's invention and the ONLY reason they never carried them out on the poles was because the fuckers wanted to keep that money and price gouge a shit service like adsl
I've a colleague who lives in the city centre and can't get anything above basic ADSL
FTTP runs past their building, but as a block of flats it wasn't on the list... so it and their neighbours got skipped
Our BT line tops out at 34Mbps still ๐ข
Virgin are slightly more expensive but at least they're here.
we have some rural places like that and one place made the news cause a homeowner managed to talk the provider in dropping a single line for him which he rents out (to help pay for his outrageous bill) that access to all the other people. using point to point dishes lol
Yeah, on my "80Mb/s" service I usually topped out around 40...
34, gross
So glad to upgrade to FTTP and get what I'm paying for
google fiber and at&t fiber and veriozon fios are that FTTP. everything else for us stops at the pole
I wanted google fiiber so bad when they came out mainly just to tell time warner to fuck off but I did not want to have them running a fiber line in through my house lol
my friends usually go nuts when they see <5ms ping while playing online on playstation
they are all dependant on the state's telecoms which also uses fiber as marketing term for their shitty phone lines
thank god I have a residential provider which gives me ftth
I like spectrum. I have 5 people in my house and our internet hasnโt even balked during the pandemic with 4 of them doing tons of online stuff. I think I have 200/25 or maybe 300/25
yea spectrum aka time warner got better ONLY because of google fiber lol
I have had them for prob 15-20 years. No issues except maybe customer service about 15 years ago.
you are one of the lucky ones
Now, if you need a service call....you can see where their truck is on a web based app
I usually just go to their store and pickup new equipment though
Of course, me neighbors arenโt cows and goats ๐คฃ
well if you have to go get new equipment then you have had issues lol
No, just upgrades every couple years
wtf there are no upgrades lmao
New modems...yes
they literally recycle the same shit
ok yea i guess they did change the modems but that was like 6+ years ago
had to support docsis 3.1 or whatever
For all the non east coast US of A people.....you missed some really cra cra with the gas pipeline ransomware issue.
I am surprised they werenโt giving out free toilet paper for every fill up.
not heard of that
did see something about people stealing those backflow valves for water off people's homes lol
It's been all over the news even here ๐
oh the woman had said something about that. i wasn't paying much attention lol
I thought you meant natural gas
I saw a picture of a guy with a trailer and one of those like 100 gallon water things pulled up to a pump just taking all he could
Freakโn idiots. Selfish.
If everyone went about their normal day and filled up as normal, things more than likely would be just fine
thankfully if that were to ever happen here I would just hook @clear ferry to a buggy and whipped him for speed
when he gets stubborn i just dangle a piece of raw meat in front of his face
people are shit
still like that one dude who bought like 1000's of toilet paper during the shortage in hopes of trying to sell it and then tried to return it back to the store and they told him to fuck off lol
Yea lol
what is the benefit of volume image vs directory storage on docker?
Knowing where things are
I never used volume images, but was thinking to try it on the new setup. Just didnt know if it was any benefit
I usually had /docker/regulardirforcontainer
If youโre not on Linux, the difference between dog slow (bind mounts) and fast (volumes). Whether it matters for your use case is up to you
@green inletah i see it's just the lower eastern states impacted currently. Florida has been having so much news come out of it lately even big news like the shortage gets missed lmao
like that dude who not only stole one cop car but managed to take off in another cop car after they ran him off the road in the first lmao
Skills!
so volumes is the way to go thats set. when asking; anyone know how to get docker-copose 3+ on portainer stacks? I read something about need to use swarm or something
found it; just running docker swarm init enables v3+
portainer is only good for webui cli access, and not even that works properly on windows with shortcuts
im using it on linux so no worries for me there
stay away from it until you know how the cli works

that is interesting

Hey all, what do you guys use to monitor your stuff at home? Any recomendations? Been meaning to get round to it but a bunch of stuff failed today an I only noticed when I could not get to HA (proxy was down). Looking for something to monitor basic stuff like if urls are available, are containers running, results from sql queries, output from scripts etc.
monit here
Runs on the host, so the only thing that'll stop it sending to me is if the host/internet go down completely... in which case, there's not too much I can do without setting up external redundancy.
I probably should, I'm just too lazy.
Thanks. I was thinking of something external to any server without the need for installs on each machine (cos i'm lazy). So no "agent" on each box. Was going to try out zabbix. Thought I would see what others use.
Something external won't help you figure out if containers are running or SQL queries work ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I'm sure you could do monit on just one box, since you can give it custom commands to reach things on your network.
Zabbix works well, but anything requires some form of agent for effective monitoring
"agentless" usually means that it SSHs on and runs commands ๐
Sounds safe.
Eh, if it's a problem you've got bigger problems ๐
Also, that's pretty much how Ansible works
Was wondering whats wrong with ssh
But you run Ansible knowing that it can provision anything. I wouldn't want a monitoring tool to have the same capabilities.
It's more fragile since things may not work the way the monitoring tool expects
it's best when they then call sudo -S on the target system, because they got no idea how to properly escalate permissions
Agents are more likely to behave in expected ways
which reminds me, I need to tell my PM that I'm throwing out that software, if they haven't fixed that yet....
I do this all the time. Sorry.
I do it all the time, but I blame history and the su command...
I just don't know any better ๐
I technically know better, but I'm lazy
if you don't put that in scripts that are going into production, have fun
but don't sell a solution that uses it internally
People use that in scripts? ๐ฎ
Ha, peeps will use whatever works (no matter how bad it might be)
What's the 'sane' option? Assign the script the right user/group?
Still, at least it's better than writing a script and making it setuid and group writable
have a service, or work with polkit pkexec or similar
is script setuid a thing now? last I knew shebang resolution doesn't work with setuid
SUID scripts have been around for as long as I've been using *nix
So.... "a long long long long time"
I "may" have used that kind of oversight to escalate accesses in the past... like when running a printer driver installer ||HP||
it's like the Fisher Price version of hacking
ah right. solaris does it. Maybe atx's loved hpux does. But it's not portable to do that
Does the kernel clear (or the shell solaris uses?) stuff like PATH on suid?
get in, make SUID script that's writeable, get out, modify, profit
