All their smart lights are tuya, or at least the ones that I have. The esp are swappable but are soldered to the boards and their a pain to open but can be done.

I purchased some of their downlughts to add another project to the pile and to feed my curiosity.

I’d dare say the easier method, from memory the p6 should have a charge limit in the stock firmware.

I’ve not an old Samsung s10+ kicking around with corrupted firmware, should really take a look at it and see if it can be up and running again. Not that I need more cores, ram, cameras or any additions to my equipment but just because.

It fassinates me that consumer hardware, and low power at that goes wasted so often. So many small form factor devices such as phones, with built in ups aren’t being leveraged. But I guess that comes down to proprietary binary blobs and developer work on a per device basis.

I might have to investigate what platforms mobile nixos supports and see if it’s cheap enough to dabble with.

Several minute delay? Have you considered running Frigate for your detections?

Yeah have been meaning to pick a few up but it’s not been a top priority. Not really a developer more just a user that dabbles too much with a homelab while trying to be privacy & security conscious.

The cost alone is a bit of a hurdle with money going to life / house currently and another purchase of some silly computer thing will trigger her.

I didn’t know about the ability to use more than one passkey per platform. Something I’ll have to investigate further.

My passkeys are stored in keypass, which I share between multiple devices. Phone, home servers, desktop pc and a flashdrive that stays in my car.

Obviously the flash drive needs to be manually updated but the other devices use syncthing to keep everything up to date.

I get there are some people that have concerns over such a configuration but I’m happy bopping away knowing that if my phone dies, I’ve still got access to accounts / can easily be back up and running on a fresh device.

Yer I host Plex for 10+ folks and it’s an easy send. Really wish I could pipe it through CloudFlare but not willing to risk it currently.

I’ll give plexamp a go, man my tastes are all over the shop so it will be an album dump (that I should have done years ago) spinning up some old cds and the external dvd drive 😂

You hosting your plex service for other users outside of your home? I’m finding the ease of access for other users / the wife is the largest driving point for me to continue using plex.

I could configure a VPN and attach my jellyfin server to that network however that’s a large hurdle for some of the general population users I have on my plex currently.

For something on-topic the wife and I agreed that she should move to the student sub as she’s studying and kick me off Spotify entirely. I’ve got until the EOM to get plexamp / something else self hosted. Interested to see what comes from this post as it’s pretty relevant for me right now.

Admittedly I could Bluetooth to my head unit in my car and stream Grayjay music to it, but that’s just leaning on an unfree service.

Ayy loves it! Saw Paul Van Dyk in Melbourne recently and fuck it was good to have a decent, old-school crowd who cound dance / gave no fucks.

Old-school birds who still attend raves have some wild energy about them.

It’s absolutely crook, I love my pixel but I’m not quite ready to wipe all contents, lose NFC payments and some application functionality.

Most of what I do with my phone only requires internet access, and a portable 5g modem is somewhat easy to come by. I don’t play gamesor use many apps (home assistant, Lemmy, grayjay and a web browser) so for the most part I feel losing calls (or finding a workaround) won’t be the worst thing that’s happened.

x86 handheld consoles are becoming more popular, wonder how far that tech can be pushed before we have a phablet / phone sized device. Actually… Didn’t Intel have some CPUs ages ago in phones that were x86?

I guess for me moving away from a pocket device and having a small Bluetooth handset tethered to something like a tablet / laptop would be a reasonable compromise.

Larger issue at hand is the number of devices that are able to install / are currently supported by those projects.

Even something like unlocking a bootloader is a daunting task for an average someone who’s even considering flashing a custom rom.

Considering regional variants of phones (looking at you Samsung) making this an even higher and more confusing task for the average someone.

The littering of tools for specific devices, requiring running on specific operating systems, the list goes on as far as hurdles to load a more open operating system on a phone.

I’ve not had any issues using my 3070 / 1660 mobile.

Been using Linux around 12m now on all my systems, drivers have luckily been a non issue.

Saying so depending on if AMD want to try and compete in the next generation of GPUs I’ll probably swing to team red.

Devices like Intel MyriadX inside of a camera would be considered edge devices in this application.

I’ve got an original OakD camera but haven’t tried to use it yet, was a gift at a convention a few years back. Pretty interesting device overall.

My old Breville was great, had a built in grinder which was easy to clean. But the Ms wanted a new machine. Just wished I’d kept the Breville in the shed.

Honestly considering an upgrade to a decent unit, but living in the country (AU) doesn’t give me much options on the 2nd hard market locally.

I did mine recently and air got trapped in the flow metre - had a bad seal & was pulling up air. Machine thought it had not ran enough water through to complete the cycle so was stuck in a loop.

Also there isn’t a method for cleaning out the grinder, apart from opening the whole unit…

Gotta say I’m not a fan of De’Longhi

NVME / M.2 to 6x SATA boards, cheap enough on AliExpress.

I have an x16 PCIE bifurcated to 4 m.2 slots so a theoretical 24 SATA ports. Only one adaptor currently but lots of room to grow.

Cloudflared is such a nice feature, I have seperate tunnels for different services hosted on the one machine.

Depends on your ISP and where in the world you live.
