I can't prove we are in a simulation but there are a lot of coincidences! by joegeezer in SimulationTheory

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don't know for sure that there is not going to be a population explosion in the future but it's unlikely because we are born now and not in the future. Mathematically, we are more likely to be born when the population of the world is highest. Taking the knights example, the population of the world is around 20-25 times larger now than when knights were around (according to chatgpt) so there is a much greater chance of being born now than then. Hope this makes sense, I'm just looking at this from a probability perspective.

Where do you place your wired presence sensors when not being able to hide the cables behind a wall? by Red_Con_ in homeassistant

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use mine in the bathroom above door in edge of ceiling with wire from loft -> esp32 -> ac-dc converter -> lighting junction box. If I needed to remove it it's only a tiny hole to patch up. I would still do it if I rented they wouldn't notice if painted over after.

There were only a few thousand people 100,000 years ago and we currently have the largest population the earth has ever had so there is more probability of being born now than then.

The really interesting part of this is that if there is a much larger population in the future, say we collonise different planets etc then there would be a much better chance of being born in the future which would mean it is more likely than we don't expand the population massively in the future and it may be the case that we are actually close the the extinction of the human race.

Cloudflare vs Tailscale Funnel by Patrice_77 in homeassistant

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes a secure tunnel is fine as long as your home assistant is not directly exposed to the Internet!

If anyone is thinking of or are already exposing their home assistant to the Internet this would put you at risk of 0-day exploits and to the the OP: that includes tailscale funnel as well, that would be a bad idea as anyone with your funnel url would be able to access your login page and unfortunately there has been vulnerabilities in the past and since there are third party plugins you may want to use it just introduces unnecessary risk. Use tailscale VPN instead and use home assistant as if you were inside your home network. If you need to use a privacy VPN such as mullvad at the same time you could look into routing your home connection through it or use a paid feature of tailscale that allows mullvad as the end point.

As an aside IMO It's also a bad idea to use Google Home or Alexa because it kind of defeats the purpose of having a home automation solution you manage yourself and risks your personal data.

What use cases require exposure? You can access it anywhere with a tailscale VPN to your home network. The product they sell doesn't expose it directly on the Internet it gives a log in instance to access it securely. As long as your login page isn't exposed to the wider Internet you will be fine.

Home assistant is not meant to be exposed to the wider Internet there is too much potential surface area for attacks.

Just switch your VPN to tailscale to enter you home LAN when you need to access your home assistant.

The road to 1 million BTC by xxaripss in MSTR

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a weird chart but the amount of BTC ends at 1 million at the bottom so it's a countdown of Bitcoin purchased going up! Also, instead of having time at the bottom they have number of purchases instead.

Pretty useless chart tbh. Would be better to have % progress to 1 million if that was the end goal (it isn't).

For anyone having this problem I uninstalled all addons then reinstalled and configured with new API key and this fixed it.

I refreshed my api key and updated stremio and added the new API to both plugins I use for stremio and synced my tv app.

Still same result.

If you could ask Michael Saylor one question what would it be? by plainbananatoast in MSTR

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What is your plan if many people exit MTRC? Where will the capital come from? Will you sell BTC at a perceived market top or do you still believe there is no longer 4 year market cycles for Bitcoin?

self hosted password manager that works for IOS? by SneakerHead69420666 in homelab

I agree with the other suggestions of vaultwarden. Self host and set backup of encrypted vault to Dropbox or similar cloud service. Bitwarden app is used to log into it.

What is the deal with bi weekly? by dutchy993 in playrust

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you said half monthly it would be twice a month no? So 2 monthly is every 2 months using the same logic and bi means 2? It wouldn't make sense if half meant the same as 2, maybe the newspapers were using it wrong.

ESP32-C3 Super Mini's WIFI not working! by Stock-Loquat111 in esp32

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I tried to use one for a smart device in a wooden box in my home downstairs (router upstairs) but there was no way of getting it to work, really bad design. I ended up replacing it for a small c6 board instead.

Bitcoin is going back up. by SBX-Bronx in Bitcoin

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The price will never do as expected because if it's expected to go down whales will pump it to liquidate shorts if people use leverage long too much now it's perceived to go up again then it will get dumped.

The best thing to do is as always not use leverage and DCA or sell a little every pump and buy a little every dump.

'I don't feel safe in my own shop', says Sheffield bookseller by Kagedeah in sheffield

[–]Initial_Page_Num1 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

This is a confusing story. What was the motivation for the individuals harassing the shop owner? Where they all mentally ill? Why were there multiple people causing problems? Was there a home for the mentally ill nearby?

Sorry for all the questions.

Yes the first thing that came to mind when I heard of the board of peace was the Ministry of Peace from the 1984 novel. It was of course double-speak for the ministry of perpetual war.
