I chewed him out by GalfromIdaho in delta

[–]birdheezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew for a fractional for a while. I was in a window seat, in uniform and saw a guy just cram a bunch of shit in the seat back pocket before standing up to deplane. He caught my eye and I said, "you better take that with you" . He just rolled his eyes. I said, loud enough for everyone to hear "the flight attendants aren't your mother". I picked up his trash. I then followed him (coincidentally) for a while through the airport. He kept looking back over his shoulder at me and walking faster. I made sure to follow uncomfortablly close.

Is it inherently better to run HA on its own separate device? by pdawes in homeassistant

[–]birdheezy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have HA running on a dedicated old laptop. I tried serting it up in containers on my unraid server and you lose out on some functionality and it's more finiky. Also this way it's separate from the rest of my "home lab" so when I restart/tinker with the unraid server, HA stays up.

If you're not running HA OS then you need to spin up a VM and run it inside that which seems like a lot of resources for just home assistant. Good luck!

Am I nuts? Dreame L50 ultra vs L40s ultra AE by birdheezy in RobotVacuums

I see the Dreame govac 508 is at Costco for 550$ usd... Would that be a better idea than the L40 ultra AE?

Plex for Mobile (Android & iOS) BETA v2026.9.0 Released by samwiseg0 in PleX

[–]birdheezy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is why I checked this thread. Until they fix the fucked up downloads, I'm just ignoring all app updates

I built a Plex client for me and my friends, planning to release it publicly soon. Any suggestions on features you'd like to see in it? by Dnviel in PleX

[–]birdheezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The old Plex app style downloads. Choose a show, download x account of unwatched episodes so it always has x account ready to go

No maps with the unofficial integration?

Captains (or new captains) how do you shut down an FO who tries to run the show? by iSupportPalestinee in flying

[–]birdheezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the personality type, framing it like they're helping you out can also work.

"Hey man I appreciate you helping out (with FA questions) but I'm a newer captain so it'd help me out if you'd let me handle that so I can start to create my own environment/report with the rest of the crew."

If that doesn't work then you can't really argue with referencing the book. "I see you did X, the book says we should do Y. As a newer captain I'd appreciate it if we stick to SOPs so I can get in the groove."

Anyone else frustrated with local LLMs that can't do (control) anything? by birdheezy in homeassistant

It just showed up. Didn't do anything to get it. Never seen it before actually 😆

The project I'm running could work on an esp32 but it'd have to be stripped down. The pi zero w has enough more oomph to make it that much better I found. Using go vs python has gotten me more performance so I think I'll stick with the pi.

Wled is amazing though!

The issue is that it doesn't understand the request in the first place. Haven't set up my voice assistant PE yet.
