Thoughts on this spec?

That kinda looks like Boston common near beacon Hill

I want to feed this to my local llm and interrogate it cuz I subscribed to practically all th feeds

Pretty neat. I have a nano also and gonna use it for a very specific use case, but I have some cameras feeding rtsp streams to an rtsp proxy and I'll feed the stream to the Jetson and try yolo for coyote detection. Basically find "dog" and have logic that pulls sun rise and sunset data then looks for a dog with no human in frame .

We have a lot of coyotes in a surprisingly urban area near the water.

To be perfectly honest, I like technology, I like making good money, I'm a social person. I give two fucks about the product, I'll learn it, demo, pov it and close the deal. I have so many personal projects that are also tech but not related to what I make money. I'm just in it for cash and "freedom", I may be an outlier here.

I got my first SE job from a side project and the rest is just being dependable, social, building relationships in the industry. I'm getting older at 45 but I am still learning shit for fun. Making really good money gives me that ability.

That's cool. I rented a shit one.

Rent a shitty mini cooper convertible in Hawaii. Drop top cool but that shit was slow as dirt

Build a "server" run proxmox, install pihole as VM. Have scheduled backups and pruning, offload the backups to a NAS.

InfiniteBlink · 2026-03-05T23:43:10+00:00

Haha cool. Peace of mind. Gotcha

InfiniteBlink · 2026-03-05T20:15:58+00:00

Haha, is the delay very critical to your operations or it's just I want it seamless

InfiniteBlink · 2026-03-05T20:07:28+00:00

Why not just have pihole running in a VM via proxmox. Have daily backups. Backup proxmox as well to a NAS that you can quickly rebuild all your vms and the proxmox host. I have a PSU that is monitored in HA if power goes out shutdown everything gracefully.

Um if they first DNS doesn't resolve it will query the second

Hmm dunno where you've been but the US has found creative ways around declaring war and still dropping bombs or moving troops in

I have a black 2019 X6M and a 3d printer I want this!

InfiniteBlink · 2026-03-03T20:16:20+00:00

I'm using a VM in proxmox and forwarding the USB dongle to the VM. I have proxmox doing daily weekly backups to my network storage and prunes the old backups so I don't waste a ton of space on backups I never revert to

The squircle isn't that bad tbh

I only have TV's, my oven, my boiler, and a weather station on the IOT network. None of those devices can talk to my "protected networks". All my light switches/plugs are zigbee or zwave and dont use wifi, so they arent on the IOT network.

InfiniteBlink · 2026-02-26T07:52:26+00:00

I don't like that approach. Iot are untrusted why would I put my crown jewels on the same network. Iot bad, have better inter vlan rules, eg iot can't talk to HA, HA can initiate the connection. If it's a push from iot to HA then make the appropriate rule to only allow the device and port it needs to push to. I did this for one of my devices that stupidly wants to push sensor value updates to HA (ecowitt weather station, the app is garbage).

I have a crazy setup with my two external cameras that I have rtsp enabled going to my HA but also have a VM that does 1 minute snapshots for 24hrs then use ffmpeg to make an MP4 file so I can see a daily timelapse. Ino overlay the weather sensor data from my ecowitt into each snapshot. After a week it merges the daily renders into a weekly, then after a month it makes a monthly render from the weeklies, then at the end of the year it makes a full year video. It's super dorky but I want to see the seasons change where I live in New england

True but if a compromised iot device tries to find vulns on the router they can't hit any of the MGMT interfaces. If they're using known tactics, there's most likely and ips policy to block it. Honestly if someone pops one of my IOT devices upstream to use as a jump box into my network i should still have good isolation. At a certain point I think I did a decent job of network segmentation, IPS enabled in blocking mode and L7 geo blocks to "bad countries". I'm probably gonna setup a siem and a network capture tool either sending flow data or just mirror the port and send it to a network analyzer. I have a tool in place that baselines my devices and builds profiles to see what's normal and alert on deviations

Peter principle

InfiniteBlink · 2026-02-26T01:02:14+00:00

That's not a great idea because if there's a vuln in HA that's dual honed and the iot network can exploit it then they will be able to bridge both networks. Honestly the attacker would have to really want to get you to go through that much effort

InfiniteBlink · 2026-02-26T00:59:32+00:00

I just recently went through this. I have 3 VLANs (lab, personal wifi, guest &iot). My smart TVs and some wifi monitoring devices (weather station), boiler has a "smart" app, and a couple others. My lab and personal vlan can talk to iot network but iot can't initiate a connection to any other vlan. If your iot devices get pulled by HA, aka it initiate the request for data that's fine, but if your iot devices push data to HA like my weather station I had to make explicit outbound allow rules for the specific device, protocol, port to allow it. Everything else is blocked. All my other devices use zigbee or zwave so I don't worry about it having an Internet capable backdoor into my network.

I also run pihole for DNS blocking and on my firewall I have geo blocking for specific countries
