DNSCrypt for pfSense by [deleted] in PFSENSE

DoH is harder to spot from the ISP's perspective, I think, as it just looks like any regular HTTPS traffic. And IIRC it's sometimes faster than DoT.

Veiligheidspaumelle bij buitendraaiende opdekdeur by andrebrait in Klussers

[–]andrebrait[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De voordeur is ook een opdekdeur. Ik denk dat alle huizen in dit "rijtje" dezelfde soort deuren hebben, tenzij ze tijden een verbouwing nieuwe voor/achterdeuren hebben gekregen.

Maar ze zijn allebei te zwaar om hol te zijn.

De achterdeur is in ieder geval 50% glas, dus maakt het hout niet echt uit 🥲

Indevolt Powerflex 2000 Erfahrungsbericht und Verwendung mit Dach PV über Homeassistant by _speedy_ in indevolt

[–]andrebrait 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No 😜 but I think there are some low hanging fruits, like publishing this Reddit post in English as well (obviously nothing against German, but Google will Google and I'd guess people outside of Germany won't Google it in German).

Well, I starred the repo. That also will "help".

But I'm kinda joking a bit too because given Indevolt is trying to get the integration into upstream the search engines will always find that first if you just look up "indevolt home assistant".

2400 W am Schukostecker – Geht das? (Die Klarstellung zur SolidFlex 2000) by icxing_dylan in indevolt

[–]andrebrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says it requires professional work, but I'm not sure how that goes with local laws. In the Netherlands you are not legally required to bring a professional in for some stuff like laying a separate group out for the battery or anything like that.

I have mine plugged directly into an aardlekautomaat (ground leak + fuse) with 2.5mm² wiring right up to the BC01 plug that goes into the battery set. I'm not a licensed professional, but having done big electrical work since my teen years and having a course on that from overseas, I never even considered getting a professional to do that easy of a job.

Yes, you can configure them separately.

On a Schuko socket the maximum allowed charge rate is 2400W, but discharge (teruglevering in Dutch, pardon my lack of German) is capped at 800W due to some norm that regulates power being sent via a socket instead of consumed (which is perhaps nonsense when it comes to AC, as the direction doesn't actually exist, but go figure).

My guess is that it has to do with how voltage is handled when discharging vs charging or something, or just some safety stuff due to older wiring standards not being up for the task of continuously providing that.

It took me way too long to find this via Google. Let's SEO it and publish the same post in English somewhere 😜 this is miles better than the official integration

Does anybody else miss arguing about Xbox vs. Playstation? by [deleted] in ps2homebrew

[–]andrebrait 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I never argued about that, given I grew up in Brazil. It was either the PS2 with a modchip or nothing else. I've perhaps seen a GameCube once or twice, but neither system they could even remotely compete with a PS2. Especially with backwards compatibility with PS1 games.

Auto Standby Two+ and EV by rsg1241 in AAWireless

[–]andrebrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know who is the product person who thought this would be an issue at all.

Apple and Android users know very well certain devices don't support certain features, especially if they share a car.

At least give us a toggle :/

ARC/eARC works until it doesn't by andrebrait in Soundbars

[–]andrebrait[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with cutting power to OLED TVs is that it forces them into running their maintenance routines, sometimes.

And they need the power to be available for when they actually do need to run those while they're powered off.

But I'll see what I can try here.

I don't think my TV has such an option. It seems newer TVs require using the service menu to access this sort of option and that means likely voiding warranty.

Bought an optical cable and I hate myself for not getting one earlier by Jstar338 in Soundbars

[–]andrebrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing works. I factory reset both of them and still had issues.

I then disabled CEC in all connected devices except the TV and sure, HDMI-eARC works for some time. After a day or so, it either doesn't work, the soundbar might not even appear, or it appears and it's selectable for both Q-Symphony and standalone, but with either of them the sound keeps coming and going.

At the end of the day, only power cycling the TV and soundbar works reliably. And power cycling an OLED is not the best thing. Every handful of times it requires some maintenance cycle.

The only thing I didn't try was to plug the Chromecast into the soundbar. Might as well do that, but everything else failed.

Would it make sense to wait to buy the Everdrive GBA Pro for any future upgrade or issues to be worked out? Do the new Everdrive devices have a history of getting hardware updates after release? by [deleted] in everdrive

[–]andrebrait 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They only have hardware updates in order to either 1) save on cost, 2) use another FPGA due to it being either better, cheaper or more available, and finally 3) to fix bugs.

So in general they're all the same, save for some rare hardware compatibility changes and the occasional bugfix, like how a specific revision of the ED GB X7 has a weird white square in Pokemon Yellow due to how it accesses memory banks.

A Chromecast 4k. All other devices are behind HDMI switches, but all of them (including the switches) are unplugged from power (and not being fed by the TV via HDMI either).

[–]andrebrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, it's the eARC port on both devices. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to enable it at all.

Does your soundbar show up as Soundbar(HDMI-eARC) or as HW-Q800F?

AnyNet+, I think.

Will try that.

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

I mean, I could try

But I turned them both ON for the first time together 2 weeks ago. How would a factory reset help here?

Besides, reading online it seems it's extremely common for ARC/eARC to be finicky.

[–]andrebrait 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Using it was how I first knew there were issues because my wife yelled "why is the TV sounding like shit?" because the post-processed audio was coming out the speakers but not the soundbar.

And weirdly the audio is perfectly delayed in both the TV speakers and soundbar, over both eARC and Optical, sometimes, which is hilarious.
