The door monitor mostly helps when a kid walks off leaving it open thinking they closed it.

The freezer temperature monitoring has saved the contents several times. A breaker had tripped once and I didn’t notice, it let me know that I needed a generator during a power outage, and one of the kids snuck an ice cream and left the lid wide open.

So yeah, it’s been useful. It’s not needed 99% of the time.

Nothing needs to be, but I do like to monitor door status and temperature for my fridge and deep freezers with home assistant.

Is your upright the one with all the little compartments? That one looked to me like the most efficient upright design I’ve ever seen.

They’re pissy cause it being open source and more efficient means that it’s gonna be more cost effective for people to use. Which is real bad if your company overcommitted to the slop and needs to recover losses.

You’re right. Perhaps I need to touch grass. My “is this commenter worth actually expending energy” meter may be off.

And to be clear, there was no jab at marxists. There was a jab at the lack of working class solidarity and wealth cult that exists within my everyday context in the US. Which you aren’t necessarily aware of and I wasn’t explicit about.

Marxist and Anarchist end goals really aren’t so different that it makes sense to foster any leftist infighting. We all ultimately want things to be better for everyone, especially the working class.

You can start by height. If that doesn’t work you can try favorite ice cream flavor.

And no, boot leather isn’t actually an ice cream flavor. There seems to have been some confusion about that amongst us workers lately.

I bought a protectli awhile back. Mines 4 port 2.5 gbps nics, and it runs opnsense out the box.

You should take a look at their sfp+ model, if I were in your shoes that’s what I’d be looking at. It’s all in one, works nicely, is incredibly customizable, and is lower power usage than basically anything you’ll build yourself.

I use that for my router/firewall, then I use an off lease dell thin client to run my home assistant server, and a standard off the shelf buffalo nas. If you’re into immich, I’ll recommend jellyfin over Plex. I used it for years but they started collecting more data, sticking their own junk in etc. Jellyfin is open source and works great.

The NYT only put the Holocaust on the front page 26 times when it was happening. Only 6 of those times were Jewish people identified as primary victims.

They have never cared about actual news, only manufacturing consent.

“Social Murder”

In response to that…

Try this on

I didn’t even always add oil afterwards. I just wash it then stick it on the stove on low to dry it while I unload and reload the dishwasher or whatever.

My wife does hate that I’m fine with my cast iron living in the stove though.

“Neat.”

Is it not safe to expose externally with ssl yet?

My wife and I have been abusing our Ryobi for like 10 years. I thought it was finally dying, but then I got a new battery, still going strong.

I always start with harbor freight. When I break that one, I buy a nice version of whatever it was. I don’t buy “nice” tools very often. HF is nearly always “good enough.”

Ubiquiti has had outages in the past that meant you couldn’t manage the equipment right in front of you.

Even discounting the potential security implications of that kind of management, the rage I would feel in that situation is enough that I while my AP is nice, works great, I will never use any of their gateways.

I’m using a 2.5g protectli with OPNSense now, and it’s easy to manage, and all local.

So how long till the Supremes rule that CBP is not only allowed to search your phone but also to perform colonoscopies at checkpoints 100 miles inland and sell the resulting videos to extremely wealthy perverts?

Beyond any issues with the owner of the company, these cars have multiple dangerous issues.

You cannot treat a company that makes physical stuff that can endanger lives the same way you treat a software company that makes a leisure activity platform.

Iterative design for a purely software environment is way more forgiving than iterative design for physical hardware or even software that interacts with physical hardware. You can profoundly fuck up the backend for a website and take the whole thing down until you could roll back to last known good production, you won’t kill anyone, but you’ll make the line go down temporarily.

If you profoundly fuck up an iteration on an embedded vehicle system and don’t catch it because you don’t respect safety regulation or existing engineering norms you can and will kill people.

Analogue doesn’t have firmware that can reject a device based on id.

So you can reverse engineer a replacement part if you absolutely have to.

Good for them for attempting to redeem themselves after what they did to my potatoes. But I’ll never forgive them.

They may have fooled you with their cute little rolls and their ability to mitigate human pollution, but I see them.
