Spot on with the AI C-Suite description.

Educate your friends and relatives and write your representatives at every level. It’s only a small difference but it’s something.

White space sensitive languages are evil.

If they’re powered off they should be listed as unavailable/unknown.

Technical people don’t understand the business, you see.

Yeah, it’s not really built out yet. Zigbee is good enough, thread is supposed to make it better but I’m good with what I’ve got in hue - for now at least.

Isn’t IKEA’s new line thread?

The reason people suggest avoiding wifi is more than just having the isolated network. Between the protocol requirements, the possibility of network congestion, and the high probability of overlapping wifi network signals, it can make them unreliable or just a bit slower than you’d expect a light to work.

Thread enabled devices can make this better, apparently; if I was in the market for bulbs outside of my current zigbee setup I would want Thread. Zigbee is excellent so far for me

Personally, I’m very happy with my Hue lights, but not super happy with the price; I only get them on sale. One aspect that is not discussed enough, in my opinion, is the quality of light (CRI, dimming depth, colour intensity), which hue is great at imho. The new hub does some nerdy stuff for motion detection if you have multiple bulbs in a room which is interesting, though I haven’t looked into it much.

It’s funny how much sense your documentation makes until you come back 3 months later.

3 months later “who wrote this? wtf does this mean? What is the password?”

I don’t believe for a second his family is holding the bag.

Mummy craze was wild. People were eating them as medicine, and they were viewed as a collector item. Egypt was ransacked over decades of colonialism.

Hard SPF and DKIM enforcement helps.

I just learned about this yesterday. Haven’t found out if my previous backup solution also has become encrypted. The cloud backup, I understand. But… I don’t have much going on there that’s sensitive. Family locations? I guess…

I’ve pushed the limits of the SAF a few times.

Noting that I could buy a new NAS every year with what we save on not Netflix is helpful occasionally.

It’s cheaper to build a new server. Cloud… just isn’t cheap. Makes sense for accounting purposes and business reliability standards to a degree but not much for home use.

This happened to me:

1. I need a server for my Linux ISO backuos
2. i want to be able to automatically turn in a thing but only when it needs to be on. I guess i need Homeassistant.

Now my whole family relies on this underpowered house of cards.

That’s for a passenger ticket, not for a container. Just seems high for what I imagine is going to be a non-luxury cruise.

“Good” software based RAID (unraid, zfs, etc.) needs reliable access directly to the drives. Usually, USB attached storage doesn’t meet this criteria.

Not using RAID is risky unless you’re very confident in your extensive backups (which you should have anyways).

Personally I have been using a mini PC running TrueNAS with a JBOD over USB3.1 for years and have had some hiccups but nothing catastrophic, but I’m migrating it soon to a device I can use SATA.

Hardware raid is typically not a great idea because you’re usually tied to the chip.

More like “What the Irish government did (to drive the economy forward without thinking about long term impacts to services and reliance on robber barons)”

They created a tax haven which created some jobs but doesn’t really capture on the value creation.

a two-week crossing from Saint-Nazaire to Baltimore on Neoline costs €3,200 (£2,800).

That seems crazy. That works out to £200 per day, on a cargo ship.

I really want these to take off. Container shipping is cost efficient but it really seems like an obvious, if complicated solution to drive costs and emissions lower.

Cloudflare is a business service primarily and the people who should be worried about its monopoly are the businesses, not so much a handful of people running home servers.

Self-hosting an authoritative dns server is not a good idea for several reasons.

Cloudflare doesn’t have access to data hosted in your server unless you’re using their reverse proxy tunnel.

A momentary (if severe) blip in their availability isn’t a good reason to change providers.
