Only in countries with indoctrinated false beliefs of freedom, I haven't signed a non beneficial to me document or complied with a tech policy the last 15 years that would limit my or my company owned hardware 
So, o365 still works fine in Linux, on opera, and the Ubuntu client for teams works fine
So employer will have to accept not being able to reach me unless I'm at my desk

Sure, he looks sleepy. But he'll probably bite your finger off if you try to take his beer
You’re also senior enough you can get away with that shit
Which door sensor are you using atxbyea
Aqara
Both on my doors and my outdoor mailbox
And it works great there too
@umbral cliff lol senior
I wasn't senior 13 years ago when US employees were told to cut their pay by 10%
Since you boast about working for decades I doubt you were junior then either
And were you hired into an entry level position with the company 15 years ago?
actually, I was hired as a junior, but I'm more experienced on most aspects than my collegues who have worked there for 30 years
So not someone easily replaceable
currently no, since all the people who work with the mission critical stuff I do is either dead or retired
in multiple countires
I think here if they were to try pay cuts they have to get at least a majority of employees to agree to one, might be higher
from my understanding the US guys had to accept it, or look for a new job
in EU and EEU we just said 
Was working at my uni when I was still there, turns out the Union screwed us (us being casual professional staff) over and removing our right to vote on pay decreases lol
The uni was going to give it to us, the Union negotiated it out a few years ago
Was relevant in 2020 when the uni held our pay increase back 12 months due to Covid
So technical pay decrease
yeah, with last years inflation no pay increase is a decrease in pay relativly speaking
I'm still nagging my managers for it weekly
Tbh the uni paid me more than I am currently being paid lol (going by an hourly rate)
Was nice
No experience required 45/hr job
Yeah good luck getting jobs nowadays without some, it’s so much harder
Definitivly not the case here
IT companies want people with real life experience \ curiosity
True for most of northern europe in my experience
Yeah but getting experience though
Experience != work experience
Yeah except how do you get experience without either training or money
Training (like a uni degree) just jumps you to a decent paying job straight up
I can't tell you how many people I've met with a uni degree who were totally useless at their job
Oh nice, forgot about the stock I was granted a few years ago
it gets paid this year
apparently $12k extra for christmas

Whatever you do, dont fall asleep
Okay lets go
@clear ferry please change this
Pls
so this is unrelated to HA so.
im looking for a microphone, i already have a phantom power supply for one and cables but im looking for the mic itself, any suggestion?
(if this should be asked in hardware even tho its unrelated to HA please say so)
i have a samson cu01 pro and cant complain

I haven't bought a domain in 22 years 
It still has my old address
And all info is public @fallow galleon
technically: can
legally: can't
but some registrars (I know namecheap does) have a service to hide it for you, and then forwards stuff when required/only hand to authorities when required
Oh, I will see if cloudflare does
and you aren't even EU
Sounds like #hardware-archived @tropic crow
didnt‘t all registrars prohibit the publication of owner data yet? at least in EU they do
oh sry
Oh nice

Shieet
Omg. So cute
michelle finally gets washed, after how many years?

I love how much they shit on his typing in the comments
🙂
tiktok is a home for people who like digital waterboarding
shame on those, who share that content on any other platform like reddit
you mean the one click and done? vs the non haos users who spend 2+ hours pouring over 200 page docs trying to understand why thier shit don't work.
Does anyone know which brand of lamp I should select in Tuya to control this light I bought from China?
no i dont
anything else i can help with?

Blah, Amazon lost the ConBee I ordered in shipping. >.>
Consider that the universe telling you to buy a decent Zigbee coordinator instead 😛
Any suggestions?
See the pins in #zigbee-archived
My goal with the ConBee was to get the messages to HA then I was going to have HA do everything.
Tube does some nice stuff if you're in North America
What's the difference between them? Is the conbee just slower than alternatives?
#zigbee-archived can tell you all about it, but the TL/DR is that there's better options
(unless you want to run deCONZ, in which case there's no alternatives, but you're not making the best choices)
@clear ferryuh shows that Norway is one of the top countries who imports natural gas from russia looks like you guys might be going dark soon lmao
Not sure where you got that number from, since Norway hardly even uses gas, Norway however is in line to replace Russia as a gas delivery country
the article i read shows norway does export gas but also stated most of that was imported.. so maybe your reselling it? i dunno
atx is warming his house with his servers however, he dosnt need gas besides the one he produces himself

Excellent, we love that here
sorry forgot ticket are in french
ATX was just venting some gas
basicaly a dum dev added a IF APRIL FOOL DAY that refered to a none existent snipet in our main website
2h of on call digging at midnight
FUN
how is your day going
also ATX, how would you feel having a beer with/from a rando ?
I'm visiting the country before moving in and will be in olso from the 19 to the 22 of may.
I owe you one for my gen9

Eww beer. Cider or wine for me pls
Shit masse snø here
Anyone know how to fix this? Have tried multiple SD cards
Seems to format it and then gets stuck
Sounds like #installation-archived
And a broken SD card
Well, all SD cards are broken
smells like teen spirit
I've tried multiple, literally just pulled one out of my gopro which is fine, and one out of my drone, also fine
if i format in windows i just get a normal disk to use
seems to just fail when using this
Very cool #diy-archived trick i've never seen before

something is wrong here
let me try etcher
yea, reboot and try again
I had my ps2 open just the other day.
Dusted it off, reglued the mod chip and installed an ssd.
Ah, I see you've started your sentence
now @young sigil has to moderate you moderating here
Why should I be punished? All I wanted to do was change "Off-Topic" to "Raccoon Chat".
you should be tied to a post and beaten repeatedly with a wiffle bat for even uttering those words
Moderate me like one of your French girls
Have you moved to a sane installation method yet @fathom sparrow ?
no, too busy babysitting jiggling panels
There's one on the forum that does not even know what card mod is. All yours. I'm off to bed (with my wiffle bat).
Ewww users
That means he's using one of the UI's that "replaces lovelace" like dwains, hk-homekit, or ui-minimal
atx has read out all kinds of code such as <color=red> that dosen't even know what the color red even visually looks like
Patrex entered #RacoonChat
It's great as a remote for your TV
That's pretty much what I use it for, even though it does everything else
Use the ui for my smartphone, to steer all snapcast devices in other rooms and to look into power consumption of my smart plugs 🥚
I use mine almost exclusively to view info, like dis
inb4 "thermostats 🤢"
inb4 "central heating 🤢"
and what do you do with that information? panic when the numbers spike and yell at the woman to wear more layers instead of touching the thermostat?
"Honey we are going to freeze to death" .. "Yea maybe, but at least I'll know the details of it"
I was thinking the same thing. I have a ton of data in HA that I don't use or display at all
and I've stopped adding stuff just because I can
Hmmm, what to do with "# of packets going out my WAN interface"...
actually, the data i showed above could potentially be used to determine if there's an issue with the system (more relevant to cooling, probably)
so there
"If on all the time, close window"
sure, I get that. maybe a graph or notification
in other words, automation to identify and notify you of a bad situation, vs. just displaying data and letting you figure it out
yeah
so can listening to the unit or simply placing your hand in front of the vents lol. ac/heating units are not complex machines you would actually get more problematic information by monitoring the power usage since those type of devices start to die they always consume more.
unexpectedly long runtime is what i was really getting at
so do you have an automation that sends you a text telling you that your dumbass left the window open?
now water and power monitoring I get, been thinking of using one of those esp cams to watch my water meter
i do have automations related to turning the heating/cooling off and back on depending on window states
you see it from afar
English only! You sir are banned!
ich bin ein berliner
I just automate my thermostat and can tell if it is changed manually. I save the state to an input helper and change it back. #HomeAssistantAdminPOWER.
It’s like training animals. After a while, they become accustom to not touching the thermostats……I should figure out a way to do positive reinforcement with my mochi treats from the freezer.
What is your heating system? Just gathering ideas
@last cedar forced air with a 96% AFUE natural gas furnace
engrish you say
thats exactly what I picture atx sounding like
Woot short holiday time
Sydney is fun
That would explain the number of cycles then, thanks!
Is this a hybrid in floor heating?
<@&330946878646517761>, spammer in the server.
You need to provide the user id as well
Uhh, there's 10 accounts with the same name and PFP on the server
Were I a mod, I'd probably nuke them all then.
just disable direct messages from people from large discord server, problem solved
All gone until they make more
I mean, I can do that, but I also imagine the mods want to run a decently tight ship to make it a welcoming environment. I am reporting the problem according to the moderators' instructions.
Did someone fire up the bat signal?
Yes, above. Spammers taken care of. #the-water-cooler message
Thanks sir, apologies for the late-night role tag.
Mods are used to no sleep
yes but he wasn't in the jeep mobile this time so your free to go lol
😂🤣😂 Hey, don’t hate, participate! Jeep is love, Jeep is life.
baby baby

Until you have to live there
That’s why it’s only an overnight trip 
In saying that, you are going back to Canberra which is probably 10 times worse
Nah canberra is fun
😂
Spent enough of my last job there to know that the only fun is when alcohol is involved. It’s a cold, inland version of Darwin
At least you can get alcohol easily in Canberra. So many bars
And fireworks
Thinking it's time for me to leave the cult of Apple, so planning to sell couple of desktops/laptops/phones, suggestion what to look at phone/laptop that is not apple ? 😄
With laptop, you thinking something to chuck Linux on or is windows good enough? (Some laptops are better with Linux than others)
Also any preferences on upgradability/ performance too?
(For desktop, build one yourself I would recommend)
Well all my macs are running linux, but I'm doing phd; and no software is compatible with mac; got a PC couple of month ago (windows)
Also budget for both mobile & computer?
stationary macs are about $4000 to get new, was thinking a bit less when it's a laptop
tbh, really no upper limit/budget, as long as its good stuff
I've spent so much on apples stuff, and I dont even have full controll over them
Honestly desktops are best built yourself
Especially now the prices of GPUs are dropping
Well I did build one before xmas, so destop is all good
Unfortunately I’m not sure about laptops, haven’t looked into them for ages
i9, 32 ram, rtx3080 and a bunch of disks
Though ngl am tempted to look at ditching my iPhone end of this year, the Samsung z flip looks cool (yes yes flip and reliability but the smaller the better)
had a few years when I did photo/editing, and mac was kinda only choice at the time
I had ideas about z fold
I could live without laptop, no issue there; but atm I do need some kinda reading pad that supports color. Was looking into diff e-inks but havent really find anything that serves my purpose, and idea with z fold would be a compromize between the two.
requirement for pad is that it should kinda only be able to work with pdf or distractions is too great, and it should have color. Had my eyes on this: https://shop.boox.com/products/novaairc But I dont know, screen drops res when using color; only manufacturer that solved that somewhat is bigme
Bars sell fireworks?
32 RAM not 32gb
teraquads
32 is plenty, atx just needs more cause he doesn't know how to close tabs in the browser.
Not everyone runs a country's net out of a garage
and on archaic hardware, some of that crap is probably older than i am
I need to upgrade my system, it's pulling 256GB currently
What is the most power efficient system these days?
Power efficient 🤢
1200v3, 16GB RAM system pulls 22 to 24W at the wall
I would like more than 32GB RAM
Can a 26xxv3 or v4 be anywhere near as efficient as the 45W 1220v3, 32GB with 10gbps and 12 sata channels?
Maybe a xeon d 1500?
188 watts?!
Currently running at peak memory load, with... 30 or so VMs
Need to get it upgraded to 512
You really are running the whole of Norways internet
It is just my lab
Oh, by thr way. Got a jank setup for you

Hahaha
_unfriend Michelle _
I knew you would react like that
Which is as least 50% of the reason I did it
Scale UI is just terrible lag wise. Apps are appauling, can't decide where to install them
The truecharts ones that is
And there about 3 official ones
Raccoons just come back in through the cat door. You can't get rid of them
Or the vents
if you got a chandelier that looks like that you deserve a rodent problem
Got myself a drone. Took me 3 seconds to fly it into a wall
my favorite move inside is to overaccelerate vertically, get it stuck to the ceiling, try to back off, then it plummets to the ground
I was confident it hovers on spot. Until it drifted to the wall
I believe they are only made difficult to fly as a conspiracy by drone companies to sell more spare parts
if a bird can fly with a brain that is the size of a peanut, then it shouldn't be too hard
I've had birds crash on my window enough to question that
only because you fart with high enough pitch to disturb their location technology
I had a friend in Belgium called Fredrik, had a hunter on the server I played on, in WoW
anyway
he farted with so high pitch that bats flew into his windows at night
and he had long fingers
which led to a story that I can't repeat here
so I tried to upgrade my container installation to beta.. on docker-compose up I ran into an error, no space left on device. I panicked for about 3 seconds. then I remembered that it's a virtual instance and I can just shut it down and resize the disk to solve the issue.
I love living in the future
Sounds like not this channel

#installation-archived for you
Oh, it wasn't a cry for help
Just a flex
Also, Ew not bare metal containerization

it's containers... ALL THE WAY DOWN

CODA is a pretty great movie. Recommended.

When your feeling all alone,
The worlds a drone,
And nobodys shown,
Any love to you,
When your heart is cold as stone,
Just change your tone,
Get rid of that groan,
And the world will too,
Cause swordfishes love you,
Jellyfishs love you,
Starfishes I LOVE YOU!
You know...
Put a banana in your ear!
how many tiles does it allow you to place?
i didn't log in to see all the details but did zoom in to see people messing with it
one pixel every five minutes
the canvas was 1000x1000 and increased to 2000x1000 now I think
Crazy
although, here, not everyone discusses, people are uncomfortable about talking about it
I found out I am making 10% less than a colleage who can't do as much
We discuss it quite openly, both with coworkers and family
which is a great excuse for me to ask for more
The sad part is, our company focuses more on giving new people a carrot to start there, than giving existing employees an excuse to stay
I've been doing so many certs lately I should nag about my raise again
You already make more than the whole of Sweden combined though
I should really be on about 38K, or perhaps more, compared to what colleages get
Luckily I have recently been on a course for cameras with a view to getting certified and am booking another certificate soon. So I will have some ammunition to come at them with
Afaik i make the most in my apartment, by at least 10%
exactly that
My poor LinkedIn has spammed my followers the last week
They have already given me 2 raises, and we got a really shit bonus this year too
they set budget too high for us to get a good bonus
Oh, I found another shit thing with scale btw
no USB passthrough to a VM
Orly?
Yeah, they limit KVM functionality quite a bit
Was having trouble yesterday with proxmox passing through from the host to the lxc, and put scale on, to test
And, we are back to, Hello Debian
The gui is more responsive if you don't add the truecharts repo BTW
a lot more responsive
Yes, but I need to learn how to make samba shares, and setup zfs pool properly and safely (scrubs every x days, smart every day at least, etc)
but it looked like I needed to know how to do that on proxmox anyway 🤣
I need to document my setup
truenas makes that stuff very easy, so even a raccoon can do it
Is what you are saying
but it is pretty shit at everything else haha
Well yes, now that you mention it
And emails, from zfs event demon, I need to learn that too
I just do them from Cron
Like, smart value warning, temp, smart critical, scrub start/ finish, zpool offline, degraded etc
the scary warnings

which doesn't say much with kids and a student 😛
Eh, i support them all and still have money to spare
I make close to 3x the country average, we are fine 
I was just making a joke on your typo
is your country's average that low? iirc. you are <6 digits, right?

I am not smart enough, and work in the wrong sector, clearly
cries in 3 digit euro
doormats wasn't as big of a seller as I thought it would be
Not the ones who ate nuclear waste
ah thank you so much
Sledgehammer usually works well for opening things
or give it to a raccoon, we can open most things
claws are good tools
Was thinking yesterday was a good day to change from openvpn --> wireguard, turns out my idea had some flaws. I followed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jQ5UE_7xds tunnels seams to be up and running, but connecting externally I don't get the handshake, using iPhone; so I it looks like it's connected; but in pfsense I can tell that handshake never occurs. I try here cause I know there are many knowledgable ppl 🙂
Have you rebooted after installing the package and changing to hybrid rules?
Yepp, tried that too
but not sure in what order I did it, might reboot it again 😄
it's a blurr atm
Can you see the package number increasing in the status tab in opnsense?
After the handshake
nope
Then the handshake doesn't happen
thats what I wrote
Then
- Your client can't reach the server
- The key is wrong
regenerated key 350 times, so it cant be it. I guess it's something with rules that is missing.
And your opnsense host has a publicly routable IP address?
indeed it does
And you are connecting from the internet?
Yea, turning off wifi and stuff for testing
was is frustrating is that phone tells me it's connected and sends packets, but does not recieve any
well in pfsense, all those are service-side
The client will connect even if your key is wrong and the IP doesn't exist
Oh, pfsense 🤢
worked good over the years, and lawrence makes nice guides 😄
but it sure is an upgrade from iptables, wasnt fun before 2000th cent.
pain? lol
Eh, i ran pfsense for 14 years, but the Devs are cunts, the wireguard package was a political nightmare and they stopped being fun
ぱうぬ
I dont think I'm a cunt, but I'm pretty slow 😉
reported
I see nothing wrong in your screenshots though
should be an exact copy of that video linked in discription.
Yeah, I followed this
The Open Source Firewall OPNsense supports several technologies for setting up VPN (Virtual Private Network) connections.
In addition to IPsec and OpenVPN, OPNsense version 19.7 offers the possibility to set up a VPN with WireGuard. In this article we show the configuration of the WireGuard VPN service on an OPNsense firewall, so that a roadwarr...
A long time ago
and I was a fool to remove openvpn when I installed wireguard, so now I have no fallback
I had issues when I set up wireguard and was trying get the keys to work. it was like super finnicky when I would try copypasta ended up having to manually type them out which was a major pain
haven tried that...
Disgusting
and not for my iphone
Doesn't the iPhone wireguard client support qr code for config?
Indeed it does

but I dont see button for it 😄
You mean this part?
I mean making the qr-code 😄
this should be implemented in the UI if you ask me
Agreed, but Wireguard seems to be the type of service that is very command line based
And people seem to love that
The PiVPN installer spits out the QRcode from memory, though it's been a long time since I last used it
At some point I'll give https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/wg-ui a whirl
that just for the qr codes?
Management UI and stuff
when I first dove into it I had thought they had made it be manageable remotely (while on same network) through the app and that would have been cool if they had
Well no diff after making qr
Ooooh
Then it is an access problem, so you screwed up port forwards or rules
Follow the firewall log
he forgot to enable the wg service
I should move my 16 SSDs to my zfs box so I can use them even when my lab is off
They are off 90% of the time now
Great for cache stuff
so you can have more space to hoard more useless crap?
pretty sure they would pay you to stay away from the office regardless
Actually they tried that
I refused the offer
So I just stay away and they still have to keep a desk for me at all times
I'm not following
was being funny, because services in opnsense don't install auto enabled, be funny if all this time that was your problem
I wish I had SSDs for my bulk storage
They’re expensive
functions great, but I dont find command to add publickey from server, so then it's still back to cut 'n paste 😄
dont even see under firewall logs that it's hitting the server
Do I have to remove my pfsense to run opensense
not if you want to do some complex dual boot setup
I run proxmox as hypervisor, wasnt hyped on doing this; but now when shit isnt working
your wg woes isn't due to pfsense
while there may be some slight ui diffrences the underlining system is essentially the same
if you are running a HA instance on the network, I would move to WG to that, especially if you are running HAOS because the addon will be a whole lot easier to tinker with then the plugin for the pfsense/opnsense etc
I think it will take weeks to successfull migration so I wont go there
have about 50 dockers running, so its a big move.
didn't say move it all
Ew virtualized router
spent 2 days again for nothing, its just sick
are trying to run like everything on one machine?
No, sure I have many boxes, but taking down gateway makes a lot of reconfiguring
I don't recall having to do anything with opnsense to get wg to work
infact the only rules i put in place were for my iot stuff
and lately I did haproxy but that was just for container dns
I run swag for revprox
point is, somewhere you either overcomplicated something or messed something up that you are missing
interesting question, I did setup a portrange for torrents, port I did put in in within that intervall; that causes issues ?
I have a seperate machine that runs the majority of my docker containers and then of course I have yet another seperate device for HA that runs a few containers/addons as well
Well there are many problems here, pretty sure I've overcomplicated stuff, messed up, and I'm slower then normal ppl
all the more reason to dumb down your setup
Probably, but it will take me at least a week, so I wont start that now.
A week to setup what? Installing opnsense and doing a basic config I less than 1h, migrating a VM backup to the production system takes less than 10 minutes
I used to work as a nurse, and after I've had a lot of surgery; I dont work the same. So it takes me so much longer to do stuff. It's prolly painless for ppl that does this for a living, and got a working brain.
@turbid basin posted a code wall, it is moved here --> https://hastebin.com/dukinomozi
But I did just find the error however; I opened wireguard within a range that was allready occupied. I will file that under "messed up".
not even ascii art genitals :/
hey guys do you have a recomendation for a cam? requirements on my part would be POE, big angle (180° or automoving and movement detection), indoor and if at all possible not too costly?
The ESPHome Discord has a show-off channel but this one doesn't, so here we go:
I made a sensor for when the next version of HA is going to be released. Maybe someone wants to copy 😄
https://hastebin.com/dukinomozi
Hastebin is a free web-based pastebin service for storing and sharing text and code snippets with anyone. Get started now.
I will take this oppertunity to powernap 😄
Thank Dog that we have 65k other ports to choose from
port 80 is all you need
Do it at your own pace. And the good thing with opnsense is that it is "modular".
You can start with just a basoc config, and alter the settings, or add vpn, or whatever as you need or want
he's already running pfsense which is basically defaulted the same
Very similar to all other routers in that respect. Just remember to backup your config file, just incase something happens
Yeah exactly :) should be pretty trivial to move over
I'm looking for a place where I could discuss ideas regarding smart homes and developing ideas for them.
In this server, that'd probably be #general-archived - though the forum may be a better option
I'm getting into home assistant and smart home things in general and I'm struggling to find any social hub around it
That channel is under support, and has very strict "if you haven't googled things and done your homework, there will be consequences", which to me reads very clearly "this is not a place for socializing".
Well, this channel is for things not related to Home Assistant...
There is a Social section on the forum
This channel is not for things that are not related to home assistant. It's for things that are not support requests for home assistant.
Which is why it's kinda awkward, it feels here it's not even conceivable that someone might want to discuss things related to home assistant outside of asking for technical support.
The trick is to discuss it while mods aren't around

Build your own in HA with zigbee and/or zwave sensors and keypads 
That's what I have set up
need to look at getting a zigbee camera, myself.
Woo, almost done replacing light fixtures.
Just got the porch light left now.
Previous owner put those stupid LED panels on metal plates in for half the lights
Didn't even use dimmable ones
Ooh, I could put a door sensor on my mailbox door and get an alert when the mail is delivered...
Hello all! New Automation fan here, mostly looking to become part of a community as I continue my journey! Hope everyone's having an amazing weekend! 🙂
Doesn't exist apart from one weirdo motion sensor with a camera built in that sends very low res photos
Yea, zigbee doesn't have the bandwidth for a real-time feed.

I should get an UPS...
They had a really good deal on their true sine wave models last year
Somehow the batteries always die in the middle of the night and demand immediate service, though
When they eventually die it might be cheaper to buy a new one compared to replacing the battery
We'll see when they do
Cries in Amazon prime
I just don’t know what model to get
One server drawing 80w and networking & NAS drawing 50-100w
What do you mean?
I was expecting your comment was "I don't know what model of hba to get"
Relevant to my image posting
Oh
You replied to the ups thing

Cheapest one that fits your needs then
So a 700+ va model
If you just want to do shutdowns
And have 10-15m lead time
not everyone earns half your countries GDP
Gotta get new glasses?
Guessing it would be expensive to get something that could do 30+ mins on the 20-30w of network gear only?
just add a bigger battery yourself if you need more run time
but for in-home use, get a sealed battery and not one that can vent the gasses out
Got it, vented one to hide all my problems
Are they all a standard size?
kinda
you wont get much capacity with the same size, its lead acid after all
you can only hope to squeez a bigger one into the chassis or put the battery outside the case and just wire the battery up in parallel with the existing one
remind me, how do I figure out the actual capacity? I see watts, but not Wh
good luck is the answer to that
Only half? Pathetic!

Hey I seem to have a problem getting a key based auth set up with my homeassistant instance.
Steps I took that should work:
- ssh-keygen -t dsa (Yes I need a dsa / dss key pair)
- entered passphrase on ssh-keygen and path ( /config/ssh/id_dsa)
- authorized the id_dsa.pub key on my other machine ( the user seems to be root@core-ssh )
- the comand I use to connect to my other machine (yes with old algorithms)
ssh 'root@core-ssh'@192.168.178.178 -oKexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss /config/ssh/id_dsa -o StrictHostKeyChecking=accept-new - It still asks for a password?
the other computer is a hp ilo2 which is not really a linux os. its hp proprietary
That sounds like haos
Oh, from ha to ILO2
That'll be #integrations-archived
And yes, ilo2 is that old
Already thought you’re havin’ a day off here today
Alright. Thank you atx. I hope its okay if I copy the question over?
I was just busy thinking about @fathom sparrow and @scenic radish all day, wondering if @fathom sparrow was migrating to #449717345808547842 yet
I sure hope @fathom sparrow gets migrated soon

Compared to essentially unlimited price because people can’t get it yes
Good thing they just announced resupply is back up then huh
Will be a little while till it’s available in store
Though in australia they’ve been available for a while

what the hell could cause a javascript date code to display the time 24 hours behind the source time while inside my network but show just fine outside of my network? it's not a timezone issues or incorrect time on the system
this is driving me nuts trying to figure out wtf could be causing this
Are you using internet explorer anywhere in the chain? /s
Good morning
figured it out. it's when the source date uses hyphens and chrome is one of the browsers the JS has that unexpected behavior with

Why do I always get giddy when my PR is merged 😅
pulling my hair out trying to figure out why my HA cannot restart. getting some error to do with influxdb. kill me now
I even uninstalled Influxdb, grafana, glances, and still throws Component error: influxdb - Exception importing homeassistant.components.influxdb
Well, that's related to the #integrations-archived not the other software installs
oh, might do a bit of cross posting 😉
Couple of days ago, spoke a bit about pfsense, which was then suggested to use opensense instead, running virtual atm so no issue to spinn up a new instance and try it (keep my old install meanwhile), but thinking about stuff like pfblocker-ng and alike; suppose there are solutions in place allready
unbound does dns blocking,
you can setup geoip blocking with aliases,
for ip blocks use url tables
why doesn't the cancel button work?
I have trinity security monitoring system, can I repurpose it with home assistant
The folks in #integrations-archived would be better placed to answer if there's any integrations, or #diy-archived if you want to take it apart and re-use the pieces
nothing hapends when I press accept
Right so got a basic opensense installed 🙂
just wait till you install advanced opensense
am I not on it ? 😄
I did screenshot everything I've done in pfsense, trying to replicate it now 😄
wow I guess April is the new Christmas lol
I love how french people say Hitachi
@fiery sorrel is the only french bugger in here I know 
You can't refuse raccoon hugs. Cancel button isn't a button, just an image
I use adblock from a non community repo, works like pihole without any extra hardware or vm or anything, and all the pretty graphs etc if you want that
Well comming from pfsense, I'm still trying to get shizzle to work; nothing works atm so it's a later project 😄
So tell me with opnsense, wth am I doing wrong if it works fine from the internet, but nat isnt reflecting on the intranet?
You forgot to turn on nat reflection
I did turn it on the rule, is there some other sneaky place for it ?
those bastards!
Usually it is global -> granular
so it's not called something with NAT
ah under firewall
but I dont have that pure nat
maybe it's only for IPV6
YAY it works @clear ferry 😘
But what I do like so far, is making groups with ports and rules, sure makes life easier
Now try aliases
Yea that is how I did set up all portforwards, or hosts and ports
Then I suppose I wanna get rid of adds, been using pihole, and on pfsense; pfblockerng. What d you suggest for this ?
Mostly used piholes for resolving local stuff, like esp's
I use DnsBL
addonthingy ?
opendns/unbound ? 🙂
Unbound yes
Well it's a lot to take in 😄
and then I need openDNS also ? nooope
I dont get it, I still need like a piehole or something ?
Videos I find are in weird languages
Right, think I found it
Yes
then how do I make it resolv local stuff like: lightbulb1.local ?
Stop using mdns is a great start
cant get around it, it's an esp
esphome, so in order to flash I must use name or it wont find it.
ESP supports regular DNS fine
I do that
Esphome does too
And tell your DHCP server to propegate DNS
Well I'm esphome and does not find them :/
It's all here
so solution is to set static for all
wifi:
ssid: "kakashi"
password:
domain: .eirikzlab.local
use_address: alvakjokken.eirikzlab.local
captive_portal:
Tada
cant do OTA if it cant find them 😄
Mdns usually "works" fine on the same subnet, so if it doesn't right now, that is layer 8 probably
had same issue with pfsense, so I used pihole to resolv local
So, is everything on the same subnet?
at least all esp, got an iot-net for all stuff with home assistance etc.
So, if esps and esphomes are on the same subnet, mdns will work out of the box, usually
But I see how adding domain will solve it, however I must firm take them all out in order to flash them
have a docker running esphome
In host mode?
container_name: esphome
image: esphome/esphome-amd64
environment:
- ESPHOME_DASHBOARD_USE_PING=true
privileged: true
ports:
- 6052:6052
volumes:
- /home/iot/docker/esphome:/config:rw
restart: unless-stopped```
great 😄
Now recreate it in host mode
but it will still be sassier to run .mydomain
Yes
But first you must see them
Without pulling them down
So, make it run in host mode
meh I read everywhere that hostmode should be avoided with that docker
so thats why I had it like this
But Im not that more stoopid that when I'm told I'm wrong; I'll redo it 😄
oh well, they are still all offline
They shouldn't be
Have you tried pinging them from the host running esphome?
Assuming said host is in the same "VLAN" as the esphome devices, and isn't multi homed
not sure what I did change, but now ssl is dead
my guess is that dnsstuff got something to do with this

"all SSL"
got it setup with swag, and now swag doespnt reverseproxy
get connection refused now on all connections, on internal network
or something is wrong with routing
not sure what is what, it worked 10 mins ago
aparently it's due to nat reflections not being enabled.
works when I turn off unbound
Well still it doesnt resolv, but at least it fetched a new cert
Dominic needs to like sway a dildo in front of the cam every once in awhile to give us a good chuckle
about damn time to separate the unit of measure between entities
no idea why it doesnt work, seams like I have to abandon this and spinn up pfsense

It is ALWAYS dns
it's like nat reflection doesnt work
fuck I dont know, been doing it for 14h straight
NAT reflection has nothing to do with reaching stuff outside your network though
oh well, when swag (nginx) cant get cert, nothing resolvs
great, issue seams to be that I cant resolv anything from that box 😄
lol and I now know why
...fixed giggle
had old pie-dns on that box, not sure how it managed to resolv for a whole day without it
It is always dns
I once was hit by a meteorite from outer space. It had the letters D. N. S. on it. It is always dns
esphome is just stuck on preparing, aparently that docker needed restart too - didnt resolv
seams to resolv now when I change domain
so now I just have to run around and get all 41 of them, and flash
just relised that lightbulbs cant be reflashed that way so I need to figure a way to temporary make a fake resolv
lol did the ugliest hack, installed piehole, added both .local and the .mydoaim as temp redirects 😄 about 20 left to add, but then it's correct 😄
As opposed to a meteorite from Earth? AKA a rock.
That made me chuckle ☺️
😄
Only thing that acts up now is WireGuard, otterwise it’s a successful migration to OPNsense ( 🦦)
I am stoked about 2022.4... The question is am I stoked enough to not wait for 2022.4.3 or later to install? :)
Arrrgh, principles and desire battling
Be the guinea pig you always wanted to be!
Installing .0 versions 🤢
If it breaks then you test your backups. It’s perfect
Oh, you mean the new feature that brings me no value? 
Sure hope @fathom sparrow will be migrating to #449717345808547842 this weekend @scenic radish
Oh nice, $1200 back on taxes this year
you been saying that for like 2 years.. and I would make a joke about this but the reality of your shit being so archaic is becoming numb lol
I always pay more tax, just to be sure to not have to pay back; result in getting back each year 🙂
It gets automatically adjusted by state based on monthly income
I've only had to pay back something one year in my 20 years of taxable income
I'm in Sweden, and my employer asks me each time how much tax they should take
True, but skatteetaten might be weirder then swedish system; last year was first year that I didnt get anything back from norway; then it's about 10 years I stoped working there 😄
I did install wireguard package, is it enough for floating rules on this firewall; or am I missunderstanding again ?
this firewall
you shouldn't need anything in there
then I delete the rule
leave the auto generated
Nothing is autogenerated for me
says in your screenshot, 16 rules auto generated
sneaky
You refuse to use any gui based things?
No, but why should I use the GUI when cli does Everything I need, in all products i use i do cli before I do gui
Clicks, disgusting
Hi! Just tried the speedtest integration and it gives servers in France and Germany (I'm located in Switzerland). I tried speedtest-cli from my Linux laptop directly and I get the same behavior. However, if I swap the server URLs in the code, I get servers in my country as expected. Do you know where to report this? The issue tracker on https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/ is deactivated.
Not in this channel at least
Sure but I saw some conversation related to speedtest here, so I thought it would be a good starting point 😉
afaik ha does not use speedtest-cli
Sounds like a larger Speedtest issue then
What does the website do
Because gui easier to read
I still don't understand the usage of speedtest outside of initial deployment or for troubleshooting purposes
E-peen chart go brrrrr
No
Sorry, the issue is discussed in this PR https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/pull/765
Just monitoring purposes
But you use discord with a gui, terrifying!
just use https://github.com/moafrancky/speedtest2mqtt
it implements the official speedtest-cli
Only because they ban people using the cli client
lol now I'm there again, for some reason DNS went down; restart unbound and it worked for couple of secs, I got it set to default from dhcp on WAN, changed to 8.8.8.8 on this box where I'm at and it works, so it's defo DNS
Because DoT
I dont understand 😅
DoT?
Yes
DNS over TLS (DoT) is a network security protocol for encrypting and wrapping Domain Name System (DNS) queries and answers via the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. The goal of the method is to increase user privacy and security by preventing eavesdropping and manipulation of DNS data via man-in-the-middle attacks.
While DNS-over-TLS is ...
