i just use the hue bridge for lighting and z2m for everything else zigbee related
also i discovered that i can see how long my monitors have been on using ddcutil. kinda neat
same
though I did consider dropping the hue bridge, to make the mesh have more repeaters
but my flat is small enough that I get by with the smart sockets
I’m using Nanoleaf essential bulbs since they are like 40% of the cost of a hue bulb
Hell, 4 of them cost me $75
2 hue color bulbs would have been $100
ngl, after what tedi showed me
im about to order like 4 more silentcare ultra chineese bulbs
But then you’re limited to Bluetooth or thread only support though
FWIW i've gotten a 4 color bulb starter kit new for $80 before
but yeah, that's definitely not the typical price
just... why?
oh - something funky going on. I am missing the integrations channel, so I went to Other and said so. I used the hash and I thought why not click on that and I was magically transported to the integrations channel. So I thought I will go back to Other and update it - Now Other is missing. Have already restarted discord beforehand. This is funky!

It's not missing, you just haven't worked out how to use Discord fully yet
To the left of the section name is either > (collapsed) or v (expanded)
Try clicking the section name
if they found #general-archived it should be visible

Oh... yeah, well... 
Just a heads up for anyone who plays minecraft or runs a minecraft server: https://twitter.com/slicedlime/status/1469150993527017483
essentially, Vuln in their logging library, allows specially crafted chat messages and other bits of data the client can send to trigger an RCE. Log library parses URLs and grabs some data, someone figured out how to get AD/LDAP endpoints to kick back java code to run in clients and servers
A critical security issue has been found that affects Minecraft. If you have the game running, please shut down all running instances of the game and Launcher and restart - your Launcher will automatically download the fix.

Minecraft 🤢
It also affects a lot of java based stuff though
wait a couple years atx 😂
Java 🤢
Thats fair enough 😄
Thankfully most of the stuff I work with that uses java has a cli
If it logs using log4j then its affected
"Dear Thomas. I found your email address on the Github website and I hope this letter finds you and your family well. ..." Jehovah's Witnesses are modernizing.
GodHub
That’s genuinely terrifying though

Well. I do knowingly have my email address right in the open there.
Also can I vote that if atx can send emojis from other servers. We should be able to as well 😛
I'll commit this release to the jesus repo thank you
That's a pay to win game
I already have nitro. Just want the perms in this server to do it 😂
Oh. I thought that was automatic
Not in this dictatorship
Don't you go spamming reaction images in other channels now - like some people I kn... am...
Ooh yay emoji 
Don’t worry. Am sensible with my emoji use 😛
ADHD intensifies
make sure to find raccoon emotes

You monster
I got that specially made
And you stole it
Like a raccoon
Fero shush
what tools would you recommend for me to backup my docker folder? preferably to something like nextcloud/google drive, compression and option to add my own encryption
oh and multiple scheduled backups is a must, so i can have a weekly and daily backup
Rclone
rclone/rsnapshot/duplicati/duplicity/etc
trying to keep everything i can in docker atm with the intention to make it easier to restore after the innevitable fuckups i will do
You should have local and remote backups at a minimum
Just remember to work out how you'll restore - and test it
encfs into the synced directory?
might also make a script that installs docker and everything i need to make it more automated when i have to reinstall (hopefully won't happen often but is tedious when i do bc i don't have a monitor where my server is so have to bring it over to my main pc to plug it in
so like one on an external usb hdd on my pi on the other end of my room then a cloud backup?
Sure
She's braver than I would be 👀
AHHH MY COLLEGE IS HOSTING THEIR OWN NEXTCLOUD!!!
MEANING I CAN SYNC IT TO MINE
i now wanna see if they use docker
and if they do, i wanna see all the shit they are running
all you need to do is get ssh up and running on your image - can do that without dragging it over to your monitor. Put an ssh file (and maybe the wpasupplicant stuff too if on WiFi) in /boot of the newly created image.
everything else can be done over ssh
Did someone say backups
printed to paper as QR codes
I should get one of those at some point
They are very easy to get used
I should bring home some used ones from my military customersz they are really good quality
And the mechanism is very good
I meant the safe
I don't doubt it
I wonder if they'll ever decommission some from the old Iron Horse site here
Eisen Pferd sagen sie
like just in the ubuntu install iso?
Any Linux will support kickstart/preseed/etc
You can build your own boot image that does a bare metal rebuild and restore
damn, amazing how different desktop and server linux is
like it's the same but things are done differently
new learning curve
They're exactly the same - one has a local UI, one doesn't
You may have an old system pre systemd. They did stuff differently.
unless you manage to use alpine and suddenly don't have systemd
nope, i used arch on my desktop before moving back to windows just bc the annoyance of having to swap to use fusion 360 and vr
Or apt
What do you mean why? I'm using ddcutil to remotely turn a display on and off and decided to see what my desktop monitors reported compared to the remote display. I just thought it was interesting that the desktop monitors show total runtime

update, i cannot add my college nextcloud to my own nextcloud 😦
big sad
the only things that i have that i need are my username and password 😦
🤔
oh, thought i said earlier lol, sorry bout that
just discovered that the college recently set up a nextcloud instance so that we can access our college files outside of college
i wanted to sync it into my own instance to make it nicer to do college work outside of college and to bring files into college, because they would be synced together
as it turns out, i can't actually do that bc trying to connect to the nextcloud instance through external storage will just give me an error and then i can't connect directly to the storage because i don't know the network details
"an error"
🤔
may be because in my college nextcloud the only folder is another external storage, i just can't get the details for that external storage
(college nextcloud)
where do I ask stuff about the configuration.yaml ?
There's no support for Home Assistant here - please look at the other channels for that. If you can't work out which is relevant, start in #general-archived.
If it's a question about the HA Amber see #yellow-archived, and #330990055533576204 for the Blue. Install related problems go to your Installation Method channel.

wanna create a second switch but now i get the "duplicate key" for platform
probably #general-archived or #integrations-archived
yea, sounds like #integrations-archived

ty
so, Tinkerer
I was wondering. Would it make sense to reorder the categories and make support the top one, with #general-archived the top channel in it on the sidebar?
I wonder how many people just use the first channel they can write in^^
For spammers, 100%
For everybody else, it's a fairly random roll of the dice. Lots post in as many channels as they can find
well
I didnt wanna write in a channel thats prob the wrong topic
but there is no channel for asking which topic to use xD
should I just go for #general-archived then if i dont know which channel it is ?
If you can't work out which is relevant, start in #general-archived
<-- me
though we'll friendly point you the right direction either way 🙂
I'm pretty sure I was pointed to #general-archived at least once as well
Most new posters are at some point
Does HassBot mind when I ping it? 😄
Most not so new posters often are too
HassBot will simply re-task the orbital array. I promise you won't feel a thing...
I was at least directed to #templates-archived from #integrations-archived before^^
The lines with some of the things, particularly templates, can be fuzzy
I was directed from #cloud-archived to #voice-assistants-archived but i think voice assistant is not moded xD
if you post something in the support grp u get a reply by a mod in like 5 minutes max
its insane really
I think I have at least 2 message that never got an answer D:
forcing me to read code 😦
well i read about it, googled for like 1 hour and still didnt find an explanation
but I will get an answer soonish
else i got to reddit and forum again
just ask everywhere at once :D
then provide a solution, so the next me doesnt have to ask
People here are friendly? 😄
(Im kidding of course)
🤔 Are you?
to newcomers
I hope I am 😅
oh you aren't even atx 😅
Atx is another level of ‘friendly’
The friendly who 🤮 reacts nearly anything 😂😂😂
nah, he also reacts with 🤢
Oh true
🤮

Ooof, the US inflation is up to 6.8%
Norway isn't far behind with 5.1, but 3.3 of that is just because of power prices
the stock market has been on fire for a while
definitely not feeling the pinch of inflation
Apparently it is the highest inflation in the US since 1982
And still December to go
yeah, lets hope we have a good old fasion market crash next year, right when i have enough money for a downpayment for land
~2% is evidently the target in part because stuff gets better/you can do things that you couldn't before, so the value is higher, so 2% is more like 0% to economists
I always wondered why there was an expectation/goal of >0%
I'll better get more than 5.1% raise next week, or I'll be yelling at the boss
that's one thing that bosses love during reviews
lol, bosses never like doing their job
I should be getting a minimum of 8% bonus anyway, and my yearly stock payouts, but I'm expecting a hefty raise too
you looking to adopt?
i'm 33 but i've got a lot of good years left
"daddy i need a full exhaust and tune on my motorcycle"
I'm 37 and I'm the only one working on over a dozen different products, I'll be busy the next 30 years

just the question, what are you going to do with all the money
Where to share code or something since Ubuntu pastebin needs login?
Please use a code share site to share code or logs, for example:
- https://www.codepile.net/ (select YAML as the language)
- https://paste.debian.net/ (select YAML as the language)
- https://hastebin.com/ (sometimes may not allow you to save)
Please don't use Pastebin, since it can randomly add spaces to the main view. Please also don't share text as images since it makes it harder for people to help you. Remember that others may have colour blindness, impaired vision, etc.
Writing in Norwegian???. n00b like a granpa. Only 1337 to use English :p

i like how that video starts out with a quote from someone in 1935 saying "very soon"
I think that was the time just after the great depression, of which we are about to experience again.
and in between has bee the global financial crisis - the gfc
the youtube close captioning translate for German is horrible
I have a threshold of 80 if I remember correctly
Never a false positive
Y'all got tornadoes now @forest edge ?
well according to some the amazon dist in Illinois got one that ripped off it's roof and sides lol
they normally do not come through this late in the year
@clear ferry https://youtu.be/Pqo73abwcGI
I intercepted a strong, potentially violent tornado near Hayti, MO on Friday evening. The tornado is still on the ground in Kentucky as I type this description.

looks like something out of that movie Twister lol
even a wiki about it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tornado_outbreak_of_December_10–11,_2021
sure many will blame global warming but fact is, they do occasionally happen this late in the year just not common
Have you been running around schools taking pictures of kids to report if mask are not being forced? I saw Missouri was the lulz
what?
not sure why anyone would do that plus they don't wear masks outside regardless which is the only place anyone could take a picture really
It's so strange to see people smoking the last few years
I feel like the number of smokers has declined very rapidly
Best regards a guy who used to smoke 40 a day
great that its only used to and not anymore
i like you, so yeah
I have been absent lately trying to home and property ready and I still see @clear ferry bashing USA Best I can say is get a life
@forest edge maybe find a cellular. Seems pretty rough in Bible Belt
USA is great. They have raccoons
Meymey
I will pay for its airline ticket then
Can you help?
Do you really want one?
Adults are taking
In all honest no
But I do want to go watch them in their natural habitat
Come over we got 100’s of acres
Keeping one as a pet doesn't seem right, they all seem to be obese and get no exercise
@clear ferry couldn’t find a nice Samuel Jackson’s gif!
So just like me and you then
Yes
Just like any animal you have to treat them right
murder is illegal but people still do it
Ok not here if you let them they will sleep under the bedroom blanket
Like this baby
They are wild simple care would be enough. Not like atx that would require extermination
@hollow glacier are u ok
Sausages go a long way though
Huh
Kinky
Well @last cedar I guess you and @clear ferry can have fun with sausages
my rooftop cam had a bad time last night 😆
Hey, I was clicking that

sorry cloudconvert takin its time
Next five months Norwegian government will pay 50% of our power bill for everything over 70øre per kWh @last cedar
Up to 5000kwh
Per month
it's really stuck on there lol
Reminds me of the cameras at my hometown university
For once they weren't covered with snow
wow that's a pretty location
this is how mine are looking this morning
department of computer science, nicee
Inb4 Swedish government charges us extra, so we all feel like we are doing our bit
What a fool
That is why we can't have nice things
They seem to live in a bubble where the sun shines and wind blows 24/7
Or I guess they don't want us to have electric
I am very disappointed by thr Swedish government
can you give a tl;dr of the article in english please?
do you eat lefse
thanks raccoon lady
Yes
nice we just bought some for the holidays lol
There's a norwegian bakery near me I get it from
Where is that?
minnesota
there's an uffda shop around here too
My favourite artist is from Minnesota
bob dylan?
Robert Zimmerman yes
Basically:
They are not going to build more reactors because there are only 3 companies/ places that can do it. None of them have 10 billion swedish kronor, so they need to borrow.
There are no guarantees on the loan being low rate.
One of the companies called Vattenfall had the ok to build a new reactor, but in 2014 they got told by the "Miljöpartiet" (political party) said thry were not allowed to, so thry pulled out.
Miljöpartiet are not even in the government anymore, thry had less than 3% of the seats
So we will have to make do with no electricity it seems, for the sake of the planet
Yeah the green party flunked here this election too 
It is also really funny that this just got published.....
But yeah, sounds like a crap investment tbh /s
:(
It is messed up
They could generate a lot of Europes power in Sweden, with a better net
Like a lot of the coal fired stuff in Poland for example
But instead they are focusing on making all our stuff fossil free, without giving a thought to what happens when there is no wind or sun
It seems at least
Finally we can use the uninhabited (80%) parts of Sweden for something useful
Put the moose on treadmills tbh
I will refrain from calling them treadmills, in future
wait, there are moments when there is no wind and sun :O ?
Not that the Swedish government is aware of
well, luckily i'm working on my own solution to it
My own panels and battery would be nice..... But I recently found out that the sun doesn't always shine 🤣
xD
well that alone dosnt solve the issue
but its surprisingly cheap to get solar panels & batteries if you know what to search for and how to do the stuff
Dozens of people in the Midwest are believed to be dead after severe weather that caused multiple tornadoes struck late Friday night and early Saturday morning, tearing through several states including Kentucky, Illinois and Arkansas.
As of Saturday morning, at least 70 people have died in Kentucky alone, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear said, an...
They're shutting down our last reactors soon
better visit it again before that happens :/
Mmmm, pretty sad tbh. I get that the waste is horrendous, but it must be better than the effects of using coal or oil or gas?
don't you use wave generators like what atx goes on about

"Dad, can I have your old computer that you're not using anymore?"
"What for? Playing Minecraft?"
"Yes"
She's five years old. I've never mentioned Minecraft.
Achievement get?
peer pressured at school increased by one
"Do your friends play Minecraft?"
"ALL of the boys"
So we had a fun evening playing minecraft. I haven't done that since before she was born.
Found an appropriate mouse and everything
@low harness what steps are you taking to lock down the pc to keep her safe
separate account with no admin rights to start or?
Being there at all times
She's not getting that computer. It's going to my wife.
I've been thinking of heading over to my parents to pick up the Macintosh Plus I got started on for a gentle introduction to computers, actually.
lol
What is she getting from Santa? Don't dare disappoint her 🙂
https://lithophanemaker.com/Night Light Lithophane.html i'm making one of these as an xmas gift for mom
crazy how good some of these pics can look..
3090 TI.. box
Let's be real now, no one can have that
I'll have you know I managed to snag myself a 2060 around last christmas, and thanks to some contacts only had to way three months for it.
This thing runs vim like nobodys bussiness.
i got a 2060super before the 3x series came out and was disappointed with my purchase up until the shortages
my 970 gtx just couldnt hold on any longer
Sitting on a 1070 Ti... Patient bear is patient
ya but 970 gtx was just too old at that point
even at lowest settings i couldnt get 180 fps anymore
I know... I had 1060 before I got this for almost free
which is what i am used to doing everything on
Kids these days
Yeah australia is doing the same. We’re only doing wind, solar, and a tiny bit of hydro that we can put in. Going to be relying on batteries for the times we don’t have either wind or solar. I can already see it going badly
but daddy elon and his blood batteries :x
My Apple trash also does the object detection on my cameras
I could go eero / Amazon
Ideally I’ll add HA as another BR
What app is that
Eve
You need a eve energy thread device for more details about the thread network
too bad they didn't add in a second ethernet port to amber/yellow. one could use it as a router/ha
Eve is also going to be matter as soon as the spec is out
I use a 1080TI and it still play very well
I don’t think I have enough temperature sensors
I dont have any temp sensors - but if I did have I would only need 3. 1 inside, 1 outside and 1 in the fridge. 😉
My occupancy sensors are also temp sensors
Eve temperature sensors?
What talks to HA and what’s native HomeKit only
All talk to ha except Eve for now
Eve will talk to HA later
Matter should make it work
wait matter is bluetooth
And thread
By default, the setup process uses Bluetooth and then switches over to thread if there’s a thread network
thread is not bluetooth, it's almost the same protocol as zigbee
Matter can also use Wi-Fi
It is zigbee but without their stack that goes all the way up to the application OSI level, it uses ipv6 instead
I don't see any non bluetooth matter products
So also in theory, you can talk to thread devices via their ipv6 over the network
almost as if matter was invented to try and salvage a not so used medium
Or it’s back to standardizing to tcp/ip
Bluetooth is not dying. Still used a lot in cars and other audio functions
for specific cases sure, but it's not the "prefered" in most situations
wanna bt headphones to a tv or radio.. sure.. controller to a console.. sure why not
@brisk glenhow did you hooked on eve stuff anyways? crap looks overpriced as hell
welcome to HomeKit
figures
The price looked normal
yea forget apple fans wear blinders lol
why no wemo? hear they making a come back lol
Wi-Fi stack is still shit, no wpa3 transition
The rest of my wpa2 devices connect
Half of my network is WPA3 at this point
yea your weird
well maybe if your computer wasn't so stinky nothing would want to sniff it
so basically only apple type stuff is using wpa3 at this point lol
Lol im an apple fan but stuff spending lots of $$, easier to just get cheaper stuff and then use HA to integrate anyway. Not all apple fans ignore money
Amazon is WPA3
Unless you’re running a cable for audio everything else is bluetooth really. It’s simple and just works. Anything else is either cabled, or on expensive brand new stuff
Everything is Bluetooth these days
then Matter blows up and you got so many BT devices in your home you get congestion issues like everything else lol
But they only talk on bluetooth for pairing or if there isn’t any existing thread network
Haven’t ran into BT congestion even with a lot of BT devices
There’s that 🥓 Bluetooth beacon project with ha
Also BT LE is a thing that isn’t constantly screaming either, compared to older bluetooth versions
@brisk glenhere you go. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081WY776W?tag=genius-landing-us-20&geniuslink=true&th=1 lol
I must have 20 Bluetooth devices here
I’m sure that would be great for powering your device…..
Doubt it would be rated at anything over 1a
Looks super thin

Everything would have to fail for a thread network to switch to a fallback
interference is interference lol
Lol at work, you mean home office right? 
No wait, Americans are forced back into the office
yea we do real work here. not just pretend work some smaller countries do 🙄

@clear ferry when's your next appointment at a customer site?
Currently? None
No, I'm on vacation 
I took 2 months of continuous vacation+father at birth days
And 1st of February I'm starting 50% paternity leave
For the rest of 2022
I started this year with 66 days
Still had 32 left at years end
So I'm transferring 18 total
can you accumulate over multiple years? or how did you manage the 66?
Yes, there is no limit on transferred days since 2015
I haven't used all my days the last 15 years
The joys of waking up when I want to and working from home whenever I feel like it
@clear ferry Vattenfall have only made 42 billion sek this year (up to September)
I wonder how
Jesus San Francisco is straight up falling into chaos
@tidal bronze I hear your new state motto will go from the "The Sunshine State" to "The Smash and Grab State".
@forest edge I guess. Don't know what you are referring to. BTW hope you are safe
How the hell do you not know what is happening around you? lmao.. just blows my mind
people are robbing stores in the middle of the day, smashing into cars in the middle of the day
although i think the majority of the news coverage is in San Francisco
Oh really. Insurance should take care of it right ?
News to me.
hell there is videos of people just packing shit into thier backpack as a security guard literally just says you need to leave and they completely ignore him and continue around the store loading up lol
it's crazy.. how can you not be aware of this
you know it's building up.. maybe you'll notice when they breach your gate and start taking your speakers lol
Lol. Then there's insurance for that. 😉
till they refuse
if an area becomes too prone to crime they can just cancel your ass in a heartbeat
soon you'll be insured against tornados but nothing else lmao
As long as no bodily harm, nothing to worry about.
ABoringDystopia you say
One of the videos showed this city worker across the street watching these guys bust the back window out of an suv and start taking shit and loading thier car with everything and that worker just stood there all calm like while eating powdered donughts or something
that shit would not fly here. if we had crime like that there would be a whole lot of dead criminals laying on the city streets lol
why should the worker put his life at risk for a company that treats him badly
it's just the point.. like people just watched
did nothing at all
that would not happen here
california is so laid back and forgiving that like quad said, as long as they weren't hurting anyone they simply do not care
which is why it's happening to begin with lmao
I just can’t see the point in trying to stop people who have things that can be weapons from stealing stuff that’s protected under insurance. Most companies prohibit you from stopping theft because the personal injury liability is larger than any good liability
I think I can count the number of robberies in Norway the last 12 months on two hands
noone cares about abdominal snowmen thefts
@forest edge it's easier to control 2 people you know 😆

I don't understand
Population, when you have 2 there are many things you look into and control when you have millions these are just blips
we have over half the pop of San Francisco
That’s what the law & the police are for. Not for everyday citizens to put their lives at risk
population is scaled anyway, you technically have more police etc lol
I like have you prefixed that with SF lmao
you make the world what it is, don't rely on others to do it for you
well as i said most the videos are in SF lol
atleast thier news is squaking the most
If your economy is not in the world's top 10 you might have a hard time understanding big boy logic
Oh no, my feelings
your economy is dropping by the hour tho lol
But that’s the point of the police and the politicians that are paid for by your tax money. To create & enforce laws. In a functioning society there should be 0 need for the every day citizen to try and pretend to be police by going pew pew
and thus why this is happening there and nowhere else
Pew pew. Oh boy. Priceless.
as i stated above cali's just don't care lol
GTS space force doesn't apply to Cali. Pew pew. 🤣
they interviewed a couple touristing to SF from Florida and the dude was like.. we get crime.. but I never seen shit like this lmao
just face it quad.. people are no longer going to cali for the sun and surf.. it's free shit they can just take from anyone at any time lol
hell whats your address.. I need me some 3d printers..
Lol. Been a long morning and this made me crack up.
lol
i do
So when are you going to move down here ?
I'll park a trailer just outside of town with a real shitty pickup truck so I have plenty of space to load up
Missed 2 flights yesterday, hope I make it next one on time. 😆
how did you manage that? crime so thick you couldn't drive through it? lol
Was in TX. Meetings ran late. In NJ now gotta head home in a bit.
NJ gross
I have to agree.
like living in a fart jar
Certainly. But until we've completely gone solar im afrade we'll see more coal/gas :/
Now imagine if one was allergic
well looked like there were a few dozen of them. makes you wonder where all the others went if only 4 managed to keep running the same direction

Ive heard it referenced that Dr zzz hobbit hole has a show documenting it. Does anyone have a link to it?
that was a long time ago, if you are refering to the home show they were on when building it
do not remember what the home show's name was
Yep thats what im trying to track down.
lol video unavailable
@opaque girder thanks got it
@forest edge plays just fine
"This video contains content from Discovery Communications, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds." is what I get lol typical
I thought you were in the US
yeah but just found it weird it works in Europe. If anything it shouldn't work here
@forest edge you are too right winged too get any support I love @tidal bronze but the city vs country thought is too different
I have enough weapons and ammo for ww3 but I have a garden for all to enjoy
Just a totally different mindset
I give away eggs and veggies but I would be accused of right wing captilist
Good morning. How's the progress with construction?
Slow very slow but everyday is a inch further
Yes but I love the area I am in people care less about social media or drama. They are just living and trying to move forward

Don’t need a monitor as it will be used only on payday and google searches
Do you need something decent for that?
Ha it very slim in resources
For that usecase you are probably just as well off with a $150 Chromebook
But I hate the is
Or a cheap windows laptop for that weird money program you said you have
Os
Also, what do users do on payday that requires a laptop?
Quicken is not weird. No users just me paying bills
No auto payments?
Why do you need it though?
I only bother logging into my bank once or twice a year
Some but I mostly do cash I am old school
Most companies here have stopped accepting cash 😂
Yeah, they are required by law to accept cash here still, but I haven't used cash since.... 2007?
Direct debit is far easier. Stuff having to manually pay bills
And then if I need to pay someone (like an electrician or whatever) I just log into my bank and pay
They send me a bill, I scan it with an app on my phone
It's paid
The bill is digital usually though, so I have to print it first 
You are prolly 20 years or better younger than me. Not how it works for me
It's been digital here for 20+ years already
Even my grandma (who’s in her 80s) is using direct debit now
And online card payment for accounts
That’s fine but not my choice
You can definitely save money on that laptop though. Get a cheap i3 laptop
Will do that for you without being a waste of money
Couple of hundred is no big deal just was confirming it is decent
It’s overkill for what you do
So good I won’t bitch about it being slow I got a unifi network and a synolgy with i9 for cameras
I9 is separate from synolgy of course
@clear ferry maybe one day when I grow up I can meet ur standards
It's definitely horrible
pretend it's all one color
like this
we're looking at redoing our ensuite bath
contractors have been flaky AF
There's definitely a square illusion, whether one recognizes Q-Bert or not.
the free version of SketchUp is ass now
"you want to put your custom texture in? Better upgrade!"
and it's a web app now
laggy as shit
fusion 360
Eh, tinkercad does 95% of everything I need
I'm neither right or left I been disgusted with both for several years now but quad's state is just fucked lmao
Hey does anyone use one of those servers that’s like Plex but for books? There seems to be a lot
The reason I ask the home assistant people is because I was thinking of adding a docker one (komga) to my hass and then making a google home voice command that browses to it when I’m looking for my cookbooks, and there’s always someone who has clever input 😜
I knew it, you are tea party
I use calibre
Plus Mylar
Not for your purpose though
The thing I didn’t like Calibre is its file management. With Plex, my video libraries are sorted in folders how I want them and then added a library to each parent and it updates its list to however I choose to add files; but with books, Calibre seems to want you to add in its interface and it copies it into its own file structure…
I want them only stored once and I group mine per which Humble book bundle I bought them from
It’s just weird that Plex nailed a lot of principles that other media types’ equivalent library servers overlook
To be fair, that’s true of a lot of technologies. OpenWISP for network management looks great but I have to rely on a seemingly separate party to do well on their dockerizing project if I want it on my one home assistant based server
Mine autoadds and sorts from Mylar, no manual UI intervention, it can even send it directly to my Kindle if I want
Needs more raccoons
So write your own container?
Don’t rely on a 3rd party? Learn how to docker build?
It’s almost like you are writing a simple bash script….
that system only works right from Ansible the way they made it, so when I try to reverse engineer how to docker build it just breaks
hello everyone. Sorry to bother you. Any ideas or tutorials on how to install HA on a tv box with Arm processor?
I had a tutorial but the deleted the github source, so I am unable to install it again.
thanks
why on God's earth...
I really don't understand how some youtube guides and tips videos get so many reviews.. "Tip's and Tricks: How to put on pants" with like over 20k views
i have no idea why, but motioneye is being a twat
trying to get motioneyeos on a pizeroW
it loaded, i see it on the wifi
but it's not putting out a web server
can SSH though it seems
if i had the hdmi adapter i might be better off
when in doubt rewrite the sdcard
^
did
tried different image
still not putting out a web server
oh sweet
i got it showing the web server
too bad it now doesnt see the pi camera
for some dumb reason
im about to just put a full windows machine in the room with a web cam hooked up because im annoyed
or run an ethernet and put an extra PoE ip camera in there because this is getting dumb
got it
stupid pi
if only a zeroW could run the pi camera at 1080p24
Is it normal to get some random failed logins after opening to a domain
Should I worry and change the subdomain?
Hi, I'm completely fresh and trying to learn some very basic information about home automation. Not sure where to post this, so I figured I would use this channel!
Simply put, I want to install a system in my house in which I can remotely control things like lights, temperature, security cameras, outlets, garage door, so on and so forth. Also, and most importantly, I want to be in full control of the system and not have any devices that make contact with a third party server, like google or alexa. Is Home Assistant a good fit for me?
yes, but this channel does not feture support, so you better ask in the other channels, start with #general-archived or read the channel topics
specific failed logins with known users and the ios app? normal
random logins with foreign ip addresses? you are pwned
Got it, thanks for the reply
so i wana make a track system with an esp and a stepper
like
i got the pizero working with it's camera
and i now wana hang it on a motorized clothes line basicly
so i can swing the camera back and forth like a 4-8 ft span
just discussing it, not looking for help
imma see if the new image glance cards
will pull the refreshing image of the camera
in the tent
so i can see inside the tent on the card with the stats
fancy
Interesting rsnapshot was actually removed from Debian repos
Had to install it from a .deb
I am alittle confused how you find yourself installing/reinstalling OS's so damn often
does your shit like come to a halt every couple of months or something lol
The OS on this host is 4 years old, I just never installed rsnapshot on it
And rsnapshot was removed in bullseye
This host used to be Jessie
Every 12-24 months isn’t that abnormal. It works better for windows at least since it’s not being held down by weird stuff being kept there
I only reinstall my hosts when they are new
Don't think I've done a second os reinstall in... At least 12 years
I install new OS' on VMs often though, but that is a 5s deployed from template or a netbootxyz install
lol you reinstall windows once a year?
On average 18 months yeah
🤢
that is crazy
Made sense in pre windows 7 installs, where there was a lot of stuff that just degenerated over time and wasn't fixable , but even then it was corner cases
I dunno I had no issues with vista believe it or not and ran that for years
I remember having to reinstall xp more often than I should have tho lol
When you build up a load of useless programs and files it’s fun to just wipe
All my important data & games lives on another drive
So it’s just wipe the OS and reinstall programs
you could just do a factory reset in that case
but even still you shouldn't need to do any of that lol
Which just installs things back. I prefer fresh and latest
...
It takes me ~30 minutes to be back up and running from the start
It’s not really a huge deal
Means old programs all go too
Holy hell permanent led kits for outdoors are expensive
I do like the ability to replace the actual led rather than having to replace a whole run or cut/solder
You are aware that windows has a feature to reset, either keeping user data or removing it? 
I tried it once. Buggered my system. Easier to use a usb 
Just stop buggering your systems, I reinstall every 4 or so years when I get a new system

Uni didn’t help with it. Had to install new programming languages constantly which windows got funky with
Installing programming languages 
Windows doesn’t come with anything, had to install Haskell, Java, python, ada, C, some weird engineering one, and a couple others. They leave such a mess
Yeah that one. I call it the latter because easier for non tech people (like most of my friends)
Ohlala @last cedar
still comparably cheap
Still 14x what I normally pay in December
How much is that in usd?
(Or even aud to make my life easier)
Peak of 0.72AUD per kwh
That’s expensive
It is the new normal I think
And it will gradually get flatter, but peaks at same place
Let's see what happens the next five months
Since state will cover 50% of power over 70øre
They are talking about a 1 off monthly consumption fee in Sweden
So say you are using 11kW for a minute or so, they take that as max consumption and bill you
They want to even out the load on the grid
So it completely kills the idea of charging an electric car at reasonable speeds, unless you want to pay a higher fee
Sweden uses 240v right? So average home socket being 2400w could be a decent max. If you don’t drive much
Ooh that’s pretty nice
Before that it was 13a
We have 13a
Then 10 before that
Haven’t had a need for anything more than 10 though
We also have 400v in three phase
Presumably only if you get that custom added right?
So every home has a transformer then?
No
We have 230V 10A as standard. Got a single 3phase 16A in garage installed
We distribute across the fuses
So one fuse row is ph1 and gnd, one is ph2 and gnd and the third is ph3 and gnd
For some parts of the country, the other part does ph1+ph2 and ph2+ph3 and ph1+ph3
Two different distribution methods
Ah weird
Norway is weird
I believe the Swedish trains run on some low frequency 2 phase thing, but most of the rest is on 50Hz 3 phase
Trains are 16kV 2 phase 16 2/3Hz iirc
For some silly reason
Here trains run on 1.5kV DC and trams on 700V DC
That is even more silly
Gotta love old systems
Some of the trams on the network are 60-100 years old
(Those ones are on the tourist loops)
And there can be trains running (for historic reasons) that are 100 years old
We’ve only got historic steam trains really
Most of our train/ tram fleet is from the 80s/90s and currently going through a major modernising project
(Melbourne has the largest tram network in the world, and dates back to over 100 years ago, started with cable trams)
where are the Windows wizards at? I have a very stupid error with Java I can't seem to solve
I was a windows admin 15 years ago, does that count?
Maybe. Java did exist 15 years ago
Further back than that, I was learning to code in it around '94
So 10 years before @opaque girder was born
I was alive in '94!
In vitro?
ex vivo
our house has a 230v 32a connection, if we want we could go to 3 phase 33a aswell but we dont need it
Our house is so old we only have three phase 230/60a input breaker
Seems the modern houses have 400/63 3ph these days
the 400 is just two of the 230V 3phase against each other, instead of against ground, right?
Yes. But technically it is neutral, not ground
400V between phases
230V phase to neutral

I have mixed stuff here. Cooker is 3 phase (no N) as is water heater
You do know that they just ram an iron rod into the ground when they need them, to make sure ground is ground. Right?
i just updated to the December release, then saw there's another update .1. The show info button just brings you to the same blog post for the major december release - where do you find information on the minor updates?
In the release notes
I am 99% sure my earth and N are bonded at the entry point to the house, we only have 4 cables in from the street
Sometimes they're delayed, but #general-archived can help there
yeah the release notes are just for the major update
lol its off topic from off topic
quit talking about on-topic things in the off-topic channel!

):
Yes, read the channel topic
lol
the split only happens past proper brakes (not those burn through fuses), because they detect a difference when part of the current comes in on PE
I will have to check it out, but that makes sense
well, "past". It's in or directly before them
and it's always ground (at least in German) for circuit design. It's only those silly electricians working with mains that say neutral
dang, thats a lot of fuse
we have 3phase with 64A each in my parent's house
Guessing all alcohol servings will be halted
with the prices of alcohol in the nord...
Eh, i was out on town drinking last in.... 2016?
Except work travel, I can take a few beers there
best drinks are drinks the company pays for 😂
Yeah, I was in a two week project a few years ago, €4000 in food and drinks 
argh
sounds about right
We need to establish these kinda happenings in Dev as well. Just so we don't have to argue for every single dinner we reimburse...
If I do projects it is usually no questions asked
For any other workday it is a limit of €80 per day
Before I have to justify expenses
I always just write "Norway prices"

I assume that's similar to our SEs. Who have way easier time as well
so we just have them pay when we are somewhere together...
80€ is the legal minimum I'd be entitled to a day in Norway
Why do people play romhacks? "Haha! This specfic question mark block will kill you - unlike any other perfectly identical one in the entire level! I rock at game design!"
Like the Swedes say "€80 in Norway, that is a slice of pizza and a small bottle of coke"
That can't possibly be enjoyable, can it?
Sweden it'd only be 50€ o.0
Did I tell you about last time I went to Norway? Took the car up to Oslo with some friends from Gothenburg. Payed for parking, bought a pizza, went back home because we were out of money.
To be fair, a random pizza + large bottle of coke will be somewhere between $25-35 here
.....
large pep, 13.75
2L 1.99
and thats if you dont go to wal shart and get a99c 2L
in a supermarket?
sweet fuck, thats gas station prices here
if you went to the wrong gas station, you'd pay like 3.50 for a 2l
Gas station would be probably $5
fuuuuuuu
You should see our alcohol prices
i just paid like $20 for a 750ML for jose cuervo
1.75€ + 0.25€ Pfand here
A bottle of Hennessy vsop would be $72
Pfand zuruck!
57€ to order online it appears
Ah, new Corona restrictions for 4 weeks
All schools and kindergartens to higher restrictions
Military to assist with vaccination
It's getting a bit tiresome, but what can you do
Die?
I don't think that would fix it
Sure it would, if you're dead it's not a problem any more - regardless of what it was
True true
not your problem anymore
but in this case, you would also break a potential infection chain
Shots joyfully provided at gunpoint? 🙂
bright side of unlife pls
vaccination by tranquilizer gun
I'm sure you can load them with other stuff
or a shotgun with vaccine pellets?
50mm delivery system
we've had a politician say something about everyone being vacced, recovered or dead by end of winter o.0
one way or another, you won't get the virus
home by christmas ongy?
What? Im not sure if that’s a reference I don’t get, or just a question I don’t get
world war joke that clearly didn't land lol. It was supposed to end by christmas and then five years later...
Sorry, not murica :(
move into the forest
Way ahead of you 🇫🇮
Which part of finland isn't a forest or lake?
Stockholm
pretty sure that's in Sweden 🙂
Min Finlandsvenska är faktisk ganska bra
For now Rob
Well crap, that’s a little complex
I believe Canada refers to those as Candy Stripers. Just weird you call them Military.
not even a real country anyways....
Switch to Android.. rise up from the Bronze Age
Android is still on the Bronze Age?
OverSimplified dropped a great video on The Pig War a few days ago. Great insight into US-Canada relations lol
lol us/canada relations.. don't even want to know
tl;dw someone killed a pig and it almost ended up in a war. Interesting stuff
If we can have Ice Cream Wars, why not pig ones
Bacon seems more serious than ice cream after all
That is true and I think canadians take their bacon very seriously
what I always found interesting was the border splits in some places along the lines. Like there is a few towns that are american towns but actually located in canada and vice versus
This one was on some border dispute next to Vancouver Island. The deal never really split the islands so both countries claimed them
Mostly these are rather harmless and most countries have them, but this ended up in a hilarious conflict
Canadians are mostly French Hippies so the states don't really take them seriously. Every time they make the news there is always some of them high as a kite or hugging a stick like it was a pet
At that time they were very Bri'ish though so more serious maybe than today
Hi does anyone have the update of xiaomi cloud map extractor???????
Automated my slow af tv lol
wtf
be better off just leaving the tv on and just getting a screensaver or something lol
Yeah.. the real fix would be to plug in the fire tv so it doesn't care if the TV is on it not. I don't watch it enough for me to care that much.
