I’ve patiently waited until the flashing guide for the roborock s8 was out, went to buy the s8 pro ultra, just to discover valetudo has dropped the support, because appearently a different version of the same robot was silently released, that would’ve been turned into a brick if I tried the installation procedure.

Now I have a dumb robot. It does like 95% of what I expect it to do, but I might at least solder an ep32 to the top buttons so that scheduling through the home assistant would be possible

people have stories how the dev is an ass

If an opensource project has an author who’s not a jerk, that’s when you get suspicious!

I once put my homelab rack outside of my apartment, in the hall. Then used it to catch a bastard who kept stealing my bike light, and later tried to snatch the whole bike.

The more shocking is that one guy who KNOWS it’s sqlite, but ain’t afraid to admit it!

Piping scripts directly to bash is a security risk

Nobody has ever explained why. What is the difference between executing a script directly from curl, and adding a repository which downloads a package which contains a script.

I’ve been using Styrbar remotes with ZHA and ConBee II USB stick. At some point I had an issue with some new device and had to upgrade the ConBee firmware, but I don’t remember which one. Probably the old ikea motion sensor.

Please be aware that there has been some major regression in styrbar firmware released last year. Not sure if all the issues are fixed by now.

Hold your horses, not everyone around here is a human asshole specialist.

Proxmox is based on Debian, but its installer does not offer you as many options as the base Debian installer. People figured out you can just install debian with your prefered settings and then just slap the proxmox packages on top.

Question for the general public. Why not use the DNS server provided by your ISP?

They already know what websites you visit, because TLS1.2 still leaks the hostname. They might as well provide some useful service in return.

Each of them returns the correct answer.

Did unraid implemented a true raid already, or is it still periodical sync like snapraid? If not, this kind if solution would be great for the multimedia library that does not change often, but I’d go for the more traditional raid for critical data.

If it does not help, try limiting the maximum number of active connections in qbittorrent.

But also more open for the vendors to come up with new and creative ways to violate the protocol.

Just make sure any power saving features are disabled. That is, if the 3000km journey to wiggle the mouse is not on your bucket list.

Every time I feel like I finally get kubernetes, somebody surprises me by talking about very specific, complex modern technologies being used to do basically the same thing we’ve been doing for decades by simple tools.

And I always experience the same urge to re-grow a tail and climb a tree.

I use miscale 1 with gadgetbridge. Homeassistant has also autodiscivered it, but I’m hessitant to pair it with 2 different devices so no idea if it actually works.

If you come from IT, you never really quit. A little parser bug here, a small race condition there, or a fucking baking oven refusing to bake until you tell it what time it is. No hope, no escape.
