I run it on my Debian server that uses my 15 TB RAID5 array as storage. (When I built it, 15 TB drives were a dream…now I have a 12 TB drive in my desktop computer that serves as backup to the array.)
I mainly serve it out to the client on our DirectTV streaming device. Works fine, other than I wish the intro skip plugin would be able to give me the option to skip on that client (the only way it works on the Android client is to have it skip automatically).
Yep, we had a cat that would always go for the sink. Eventually I tried putting the water fountain away from the food, and she mostly stopped getting water in the sink.
Before I learned this, I had another cat while I still had a fish tank…I’d get home and find him on top of the fish tank, drinking the water coming out of the filter. The lid on that tank was not very solid, and I was SURE he’d fall in at some point, with disastrous results, so I got him a fountain water dish, and that stopped his fish tank escapades.
Yeah, unfortunately, I do not have access to the BIOS, nor can I install things on it - security restrictions. What you have done would have been a lot easier and more reliable though!
Nice work. I’ve replaced sisal rope on a few cat towers and scratching posts, but haven’t built one myself. Now you have me thinking…
This was already asked and answered. Maybe read before replying.
I’m not sure if it’s a dock dock or a big hub. It’s a USB-C connection, so maybe the latter. It’s definitely not one of the old style with the proprietary connector.
Yeah, I’ve seen some used Dell ones cheap. But then I might want to use it for my personal non-Dell laptop, and who knows how that will work.
The one I have came from Amazon 3 years ago, and it has worked perfectly. We’ve been full-time work from home in those three years, so it has gotten a good bit of use.
Nice.
My work one, yes. They want us to shut it down every night. I just suspend my personal laptop though.
Thanks. You have to set it up in YAML - there’s no GUI. Here’s the page on it. Obviously you need to know your adapter’s MAC, but that’s not usually too hard to find.
It sets up a switch entity, which is a little odd to me, because it’s not an on-and-off device - toggling it just triggers the WoL command. But I guess that makes the most sense; I don’t think there’s a “button” entity.
Edit: It does look like the entity can track the status of the computer, but it’s not working for me. Hostname is probably not correct.
I have two of them that will cuddle up with me no matter how warm I already am.
But I still get the better end of the deal. We also have a 60 lb dog, and he will usually cuddle with my wife, again, no matter how warm it already is.
On ours, the back of the aerokat is open, so removing the inhaler would let the drugs out. Yours looks like it might have some kind of restrictive flap though.
The steroids were the initial attempt to control his asthma. It worked pretty well for a while (a year, maybe more), but a few weeks ago he went into respiratory distress so we rushed him to the animal hospital. So now it’s steroids plus inhaler! He’s been doing a lot better under the current regimen.
We just had to start doing the aerokat with one of ours. I was dreading it, but it has actually gone pretty well.
I’m sure this was just for the picture, but you do need to keep the inhaler in the back of it until they’ve done the 10 breaths, I think.
We are also giving the same cat a steroid. There’s a pharmacy that compounds it into a dermal gel that we just rub on his inner ear. Getting pills into that cat was hard, but he doesn’t mind the dermal at all. (And we’re expert cat pill givers - a previous feline resident of our house needed many.)
I moved and took my cat to a new vet near my new house. That vet was not great with him, kind of rough, and we could hear dogs barking constantly, so he was already stressed before the vet even started.
I’ve never seen that cat so upset. But I got him home, he left the carrier, went a few steps, and flopped on his side, and I knew all was forgiven.
I never took him back to that vet - I ended up taking him to the previous vet instead. Much longer drive but they were already familiar with him and his issues, and were much better with him, so it was worth it.
When we adopted another cat, we started using a different vet local to us that we still use (the first cat passed away years ago).
I have a gray and white cat that LOVES to sleep on my arm when I’m in my chair in the living room. I love him, but there are times when I just need a little space or want to be able to use my arm…
I’m checking, because I’ve been in difficult situations, too (and have posted a thread in this community about backups). Looks like I have a dozen backups on hand, most recent one is 1:35 a.m. today.
No problem here for either of mine - kvm for one, Raspberry pi 3b for the other.
I’ve been using this client on our DirecTV device, which is Android based, and I noticed an odd bug. I’ll have to check what version it is, though.
When an episode of a TV show finishes, if you hit back to go to the episode screen instead of letting it play the next episode, on the bottom of the screen, where it shows the next up: It’s always skipping the next episode.
For example, if I finish watching episode 12 and go to that screen, I’ll see episode 14 as next (and that’s what plays if I click on it). It skips episode 13. I’ve repeated this several times with different episodes, so I’m convinced it’s not a one-off. I haven’t tried on my Android tablet or phone to see if the bug exists there, too.
I plan to write this up as an official bug, but haven’t gotten around to it yet.
Yeah, I’m okay with the YAML mode, so that’s not a major problem for me.
With Tasmota on the S31, you can disable the ability to turn it off. I have a few set up that way to prevent them from being turned off.
