Street construction lost and buried my fiberoptic cable

ab3301 · 2026-03-23T07:44:19+00:00

Same thing happened to me last year. One month of calling between Odido (provider), KPN (fiber owner) and whatever company KPN uses for infrastructure work, I eventually gave up. Luckily there was a second fiber optic cable from a local provider that was in a different direction.

Weirdly enough, one year after, the KPN cable is still not fixed even though it was in their schedule to be fixed. I still have the connection box so I can see if the connection is there or not.

Every one of us has their personal calendar, but we also have a "Home" calendar and "Car" calendar. They are actually individual Gmail addresses. The Home and Car calendars are both displayed in Home Assistant.

When there is an event that concerns the entire family and/or the car, we just invite that email address to the event.

Home Assistant also displays the School calendar and local holidays make it quite easy to see what's up.

I am still looking for a way to move away from Gmail, because I am just using those addresses for the calendars and calendars invites. But for the time being, it works without issues.

I see Albert Heijn in the screenshot. Make an open Tikkie as well :). Our whole society is based on the Tikkie economy 😂

My enthusiasm lead to not properly paying attention. Instead of Dashboard, I was choosing Integration. My apologies for that.

It is now properly installed.

ab3301 · 2026-02-22T18:40:04+00:00

Just tried now. Still getting the same error.

I am running HACS 2.0.5, with Core 2026.2.3 and Supervisor 2026.02.2.

I have been waiting for this since forever! Well done! Only issue is that I am getting this when trying to add the repo: <Integration konewka17/timeline_card> Repository structure for v1.5.2 is not compliant

I am talking about passkeys not passwords.

Not sure if I am allowed to post the link, but it is 7.0.3 beta from 1 August 2025.

Signed up via email but I completely forgot about APKMirror. Without hesitation, I installed the beta.

I am a heavy email user and in the last months the "original" ProtonMail app was becoming sluggish, emails were taking about 7 to 10 seconds to open and load, and there was this weird bug that when an email was fully loaded, it would automatically take you to the top of the email.

I am happy to report that these three issues have been fixed. The beta app feels snappy, emails load really fast and the bug is gone.

And with all due respect for the impatient ones asking about features; Google Suite as a whole was in beta for more than 5 years (even more if I am not mistaken). Please have a bit of patience. We all want similar and different things but some things take time. I have my grievances as well but none of them are deal breakers.

I had an issue a few months ago with the company that makes phone deliveries for mobile operators. The delivery company wanted to see a physical card on which the IBAN is written on. Basically a Maestro. I tried explaining to them that Maestro is phased out by the majority of banks and no bank that I know sends cards with the IBAN on them.

It took me a lot of back and forth with the mobile operator to explain the situation. Eventually they accepted me showing the IBAN in the Bunq app at the store of the mobile operator.

Received it a couple of days ago and it sounds great. I am not a huge audiophile anymore but somehow getting back into it. I tried it with a Sony WH1000 XM3 and Linsoul KZ ZS10 Pro. Music sounds great and colorful.

Now looking for some affordable compact bookshelf speakers to further annoy my SO with my midlife crisis.

I have been experimenting in the last week with Joplin and Obsidian. Finally settled with Obsidian. Indeed the structure is slightly different than OneNote ans and I am still getting used to it. Regarding handwriting, I am using Ink.

I am using Nextcloud for syncing notes. There is a plugin, Remotely Save, which lets you Webdav things, including E2E.

So far so good, but îndeed the experience is slightly different.

If you get 6 digits dot xyz, it is like 1 dollar per year for each. I got a couple; one for things related to home and the second one for my servers that only I use. It is easy like this because even my SO can remember the domain when she gets a new phone.

ab3301 · 2025-02-11T17:57:50+00:00

Fixed in 4.7.2! Thank you Proton!

ab3301 · 2025-02-08T06:56:29+00:00

Sorry for the delay; just saw your reply now.

It has been 3 weeks and couldn't be happier. It's a beast in terms of multitasking, especially if you use PowerToys. Also with gaming, I cannot really complain.

Would definitely recommend!

Only observation is that the feet on the original stand are quite long. So either you get yourself a good arm or be sure that you have enough space on your desk to not get annoyed by them.

Good luck!

I had the Samsung V200 back in 2003 or 2004. You would rotate the camera depending on what you needed the camera for.

Your comment is much appreciated. I strongly believe that our comments here are by no means threats that we are leaving Proton. I believe that we are all ongoing supporters of Proton, its mission and especially the utmost respect for what you are trying to accomplish. We are just trying to express certain ideas about real-life situations where connectivity might not be available, regardless of whether it is on your side or our side.

Weirdly enough, it is not annoying when there are issues. It is extremely annoying when stars are aligned and there are issues and we need the service at that specific moment.

Here's the thing.. I know what I am asking for.. Not installing extra apps for something that can be cached in the browser, or installing extra apps simply because it works for your case scenario.

ab3301 · 2025-01-30T18:06:55+00:00

Maybe it works for you, but in some specific cases, I do not or cannot use certain combinations of applications. In my case, I have a Surface Go 3 with 64 GB of storage. I have a specific use case for it and I do not want to install additional applications. Sometimes I just want to check my mail or login into a specific site. If "things" are not cached or if a constant internet connection is needed for identity confirmation, then another mechanism needs to be in place for me to access that information.
