I have 3 dd dumps hanging out on my array waiting for a rainy day

I went to proton about a year ago, and I don’t love it. I’m not ready to leave yet, but I’ll tell you to do as much research as you can and consider a paid service if you have to. I wish I had.

I did that for about 6 months, mostly to see how good the detection was in frigate (new 0.15.0 release last week, fyi) when I first got it running but the novelty wore off.

I see people in line at the grocery store watching their family watch TV in their living room. That’s creepy to me.

Basically the speed of sound in that material

A laptop with trackpad buttons

Lenovo is the only one I can find, and they’re above the pad for the nub

With a traditional phone plan, you’re paying for a new phone every year so you may as well take them up on it.

The door locks are often wax motors, which extend pretty quick when heated but have to cool off to release. The re-lock sounds like a huge wtf. Couldn’t they just limit the tumble rpm so they don’t have to lock?

I ditched my front load petri dish for a 10 year old Speed Queen top loader off marketplace. No regerts.

Matter is vaporware

Sounds like zigbee is a gamble

Vapor injection is the new technology. It’s why older heat pumps were useless below 32f.

I use vaultwarden, and I stumbled upon the generated password history. It’s awesome.

Improv artists love this one trick

But that’s a good board!

Lots of carbon = iron
Little bit of carbon = steel
Zero carbon = iron

It’s confusing, I know

If it has constant power, skip all the zwave and zigbee stuff. I landed on Lutton Caseta Diva dimmers. My thermostat is a Honeywell T9.

If it doesn’t have constant power, skip that too 😁

The dimmers use a hub. A concession I was willing to make for the 100% reliability the system brings

The thermostat is WiFi, and I have it blocked from the Internet in my router.

I think people have the right to do that conditionally

Who am I to decide what my money is spent on?

Yeah, the process is called shucking

It’s not 5x capable, is my point.

About 10 of those VMs are running a single docker image. It runs great but I know better now.

3 or 4 desktop images to mess around with

My 7700x is 5 times that wattage. Granted, it gas 128gb, a380, 4 hdd, 2 SSD, 40gb nic, tpu, and 25 VMs running on it.

The lesson here is that I’ve way over-spec’d my machine.
