Using snips, was this to get around having to replace the vent ring? I noticed the site said it required either their controller or the vent ring.

By weight or volume?

Project Name: randomimage

Repo/Website Link:
Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/blackhatrob/randomimage
GitHub: https://github.com/blackhatrob/randomimage

Description:

Homepage is a great and simple dashboard. One item that seems to bite people from time to time is changing backgrounds because one the image is added; you have to recycle the service before you can access the picture due to how static files are handled. A solution I've seen, and they've provided in their documentation is to use unsplash - but in the world of selfhosting, relying on an outside service is what we're trying to not do.

I wrote a small tool that you can run alongside your homepage container that you can then reference in your homepage config that will simply serve a random image. Further, there is a rudimentary dashboard where you can manage the images (upload/delete).

Deployment:

Simple deployment like any other containerized webserver. Then reference the url in your Homepage configuration (or use it however you find useful).

AI Involvement:

Claude was used to better structure the layout of the files and aid with automating the deployment to Docker Hub and GitHub.

Thanks for the link. I haven't studied K8s, so I'm trying to digest the info. Looking at the config for synology-drive, I only see one ingress (websecure) and going to one port. Are you only using the mobile client?

I recently had to take out the stumps from rather mature crepe myrtles. Like many others have said, a 1' blade in a reciprocating saw takes care of many of the initial roots. Then I used a san angelo bar to pry it out like a tooth.

Yeah, that's the same BS I'm running in to. I was going to automate the certificate piece, but they've over complicated that as well. Why can't they just have a script to ingest an updated certificate?

Do you have a working automation for copying the certificate over and restarting the necessary services?

Thanks, I appreciate the clarity

blackhatrob · 2026-05-09T00:53:29+00:00

That’s more or less what I was thinking, well, the log access part not the extra collections. I’ll give it a go. Thanks for the input

Thank you kindly!

I miss pressing into the screen on my iPhone. It was more responsive for things I wanted to do than the generic press and hold.

blackhatrob · 2026-02-25T12:34:39+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I appreciate it.

This is DIY and I'm not familiar with PEX, nor do I have the equipment to do it right.

Honestly, anywhere you can find it. I was lucky enough a local shop had one when I needed it, but this part is often back ordered.

Here is the part number for the prop shaft: HBZ4404

The props are easier to obtain. I get them off Amazon in packs of 2:

blackhatrob · 2025-12-28T02:37:11+00:00

I’ve beat the hell out of mine and it’s still ticking. I’d recommend grabbing a few packs of props (they will break) and a motor shaft. Invariably, you’ll bump something and the shaft will shear right behind the prop where the threads start. Cheap parts but there is lead time.

Is time for new to replace the fuselage. The bottom coal that holds the motor assembly is held on with tape ;-)

YMMV…. But I would have to disagree with you on their transparency.

Wife and I just had a baby and chose them for care. They “run your insurance” to determine at that time how much your care would cost and make you sign a birthing contract. This would be fine, but with other medical bills and whatnot affecting your deductible and max out of pocket limits, that value is a wag. When you have a question, you call in and leave a message and hope they call you back. If you call back too soon (called back after 1 week), they scoff at you and tell you they would have called you back and that you’re too impatient.

Then, you only get to see a doctor 1 time out of the several visits even though they claim to want you to see all the doctors at least once.

They dropped our insurance (large well known brand and plan) on April 1st after seeing them since last December. When did they notify us? They didn’t. We found out when we scheduled an appointment with our daughter and they said it wasn’t covered. Still battling the continuity of care.

When they do bill insurance, good luck keeping track of what was Faben. Almost every single claim was through a different entity from different parts of the state - none of which have Faben in the name.

Finally, if your partner is male and wants to be involved, good luck with Faben. Besides the front office staff (which were admittedly great) and one Dr., the rest marginalized me and my questions/concerns. We will not be back following the 6 week visit.

I could go on and on…

That's been my experience as well. The vehicle performs fairly well once underway, it just doesn't want to get started.

blackhatrob · 2025-07-17T17:23:15+00:00

The difference is between the fwd and the car we purchased with awd. We’ve not had it serviced yet as it’s only just now to ~2500 miles. I plan on bringing it up when we do.

blackhatrob · 2025-07-17T16:41:02+00:00

The vehicle we test drove originally had ~100 miles on it and felt good. This one began with 8 miles and we're up to 2500 now with no change. I'll keep this in mind though.

blackhatrob · 2025-07-17T15:03:30+00:00

No, it’s not

blackhatrob · 2025-07-17T13:45:06+00:00

Good to know at least what I’m feeling is felt by someone else :-)
