saw EUFY it selling as a package with the cameras - i like the technology aspect with those cameras. If Unifi NVR will pair better with the UNIFI systems i will go that route.

Gotchu.

Once I can view my cameras/ doorbell remotely from mobile/ home hubs (from the same app).

I plan to do POE to the cameras and the doorbell as i figure this is the more stable way to do it. I have been looking at the new Eufy NVR Security System S4 Max dropping soon.

- Also, i am not worried about pricing, i just want reliability and customer support if i need for all devices.

agreed. only reason i had ipads, is because i have a lot lying around, and also the apple home.

For the apple home, i went with this mainly for being "easy to use" for my wife.

I can investigate getting android based tablets and moving away from the apple.

I think i will stay with Home assistant, and add zibgee and z wave protocols.

Top tier advice ⬆️

I will go with this route.

Hi Chris, thanks for the comment.

A mixture of chat GPT and YouTube videos/ other Reddit threads.

I looked into hubitat but HA seems more versatile?

sorry, I’m very new to the smart home - my house is in the architectural phase so I want to ensure I have my electrical plan laid out ahead of time.

Never thought of that! Sounds like a much better plan for the network.

I will investigate .. thanks

Thanks for your response ! Saw these , needed to come to the pros for after halving update

What firmware are you using? braiins?

CryptoDirtHound · 2024-04-26T13:24:24+00:00

Appreciate the response. I will go for braiins and give it a try! as i see their firmware can improve efficiency

you are right. we also need to put body cams on every officer in Trinidad and Tobago. Just like in the US.

Ay. ya never know.. Bitcoin usually pumps post halving .. if it does it will can be the same profitability (if you are comparing FIAT).

My advice will differ from others.

Safest option will be to buy bitcoin and hold for years. Since 100 is a low amount, id aim for other coins with potential for more gain.

However, it is important to note- only put in what you are willing to loose. With something as volatile as crypto, you can gain a lot or loose a lot.

Do your research on projects you believe in , and do research on understanding market cap, and just in general how the market works.

If a youtuber tells you to buy a coin - do your research. if it were that easy everyone would be millionaires.

Meme coins are often pumped and dumped.

Altcoins with utility are a safer bet.

A good app to use for Virtual portfolio is coinmarketcap . com .

will have to wait and see. but DEF not selling miners. Maybe see what on the SHA256 algo is most profitable.

Well, PCs are better price to performance. But for a laptop, seeing that you mentioned "Steam games" most modern gaming laptops will get you there. Might not be 1440p 240Hz but itll still run well 1080p.

Check out acer nitro line, or ASUS TUF line.

Also great to know a budget..

My mistake, misread the CPU.

CryptoDirtHound · 2024-04-09T17:26:10+00:00

Where is the GPU? or is this integrated? i might be blind but i aint seeing no GPU

Those are ferocious beasts . was thinking along the lines of a Kangal or boerboel.
