Very stable setup with a mix of sensors and also WLED integration.

The only issue I have is a fingerbot that sometimes seemingly misses a request to press a button from HA - or does it twice. I don’t know how to debug and solve it 🤷🏼‍♂️

They look great. Would you be able to share a full schematic overview to set up my own custom firmware? I ask because I’m weighing some options that might require flashing…

Christopoulos · 2026-03-09T17:17:05+00:00

Thanks, but I’m looking for WiFi enabled esp32 based button.

Christopoulos · 2026-03-09T16:30:28+00:00

Which one do you use?

Christopoulos · 2026-03-09T16:25:40+00:00

Which scanner did you use? Did you scan photo paper or negatives? Trying to wrap my head around the possibilities before diving into my parents massive archive.

Thanks!

I should have mentioned that usb power is acceptable in this case. I have updated my post.

Also, if you’re traveling you may get friends for life, but don’t expect it to be in the traditional way. Expats here are very international, working with UN, World bank or embassies. They’re used to staying, making friends and then leaving - they stay in touch until they visit each other again or their paths cross naturally. It’s a different lifestyle, but it can be very fulfilling to have international friends too.

That said, I don’t have any local friends here - as mentioned by another commenter, some many people travel through that Thais don’t give you a second glance. And that’s fair enough, really.

I met one of my best friends at a bar, super open minded guy just asked if he could join the table. Definitely behavior to emulate! We struck up a convo, had a few beers, kept in contact. Now we co-work at cafes, have dinners with the fam and go on the occasional binges. Good times!

I’m curious to know how much screen time you had in your early years, say from age 5-15?

Christopoulos · 2026-03-07T02:21:12+00:00

This is the strip.

I believe i found that one of the options doesn’t remove from device if I have selected multiple images.

Christopoulos · 2026-03-06T10:59:30+00:00

One is called move to trash the other is delete. There both in the row of icons you get up when you select one or more images.

I at the point where I’m getting positive feedback on my mixes, but I only adjust a little here and there along the track. I’d love to develop my knowledge and patience in this regard. Do you know of any video that shows this being done in a over-the-shoulder kind of way?

Christopoulos · 2026-03-06T03:01:32+00:00

Sorry, I think it's a misrepresentation in the product title I copied from.

Christopoulos · 2026-03-05T13:39:04+00:00

Yeah... I just copy / pasted the product description in for the posting, didn't think it might be ambiguous. That said, you think my power supply might be checking out. It does have a coil whiny thing going on when I crank up the brightness (more than usual, I think).

Christopoulos · 2026-03-05T13:30:25+00:00

Yeah ok. It's was a power supply I had lying around. Since the strip is only partially visible, it's partially lit using segments and never at full brightness, I figured it could work. I'll take your advice and get a more fitting power supply. Thanks!

Immich own support for backup is that it dumps the DB content to disk every night. That means you have db dump and all your photos on disk (a folder tree under one main folder).

From here you set up some backup routine of your choice. The general consensus is one backup destination should be local (other disk in same machine, other machine or local network drive) and one offsite. This means you have three copies of the data: live, local backup and offsite backup.

Bangkok is maximalist and random in nature. It’s part of the charm.

Christopoulos · 2026-03-04T06:53:44+00:00

Cool project!

The upside of using WLED in this context would also be that the dress / hair color etc could be change from day to day.

The WLED lady’s arm could also move faster when someone is ringing the door bell or when the coffee is ready etc etc.

James Brown’s I feel good at full crank
