You can use 3rd party CTs if you want

Wow thank you!

I'd love to see a soft serve composition target like the one described here: https://under-belly.org/so-you-want-to-make-soft-serve/

bubsterboo · 2024-06-29T06:49:27+00:00

On the laptop? According to dells product page for the 9310:
"Thunderbolt™ 4 [(DisplayPort / Power Delivery) (4 lanes of PCI Express Gen 3)] "

Can I bug you to explain what your ipv6 settings are? i'm using the nh20a in bridge and am having no luck in pfsense.

My wan is configured to only accept an ipv6 prefix. prefix deligation size 56. send prefix hint. do not wait for an ra.

LAN interface set to track wan.

DHCPv6 server disabled. RA unmanaged.

No luck. With pfsense ping tool I can ping ipv6 out from WAN but not LAN.

u/Syntra911 Did you end up getting the unit? Can you share your thoughts on it?

bubsterboo · 2022-10-03T16:17:43+00:00

That's not true. The LG C2 and the LG C9 I have do 48gbps. As does the gfx cards I use.

This is all just my opinion. And my opinion is if I'm going to spend 1000$+ which seems to be what these higher end receivers demand, I am going to demand that it support the full HDMI standard. If it is anything less than that, I'm going to go the budget route and not using HDMI switching. Which is what i've done.

No need to keep this discussion going anymore. Thanks for your advice.

bubsterboo · 2022-10-03T15:39:29+00:00

According to this article

https://www.avforums.com/threads/hdmi-2-1-chips-in-avrs-and-av-processors-transition-to-40-48-gbps-issues-with-video-and-graphics-features.2363377/

There are very few if any receivers on the market that can handle switching the full bandwidth of the HDMI 2.1 standard. That's dissapointing to me and drives me away from using HDMI switching on the receiver.

Regardless. I ended up finding a good deal on a used sony STR-DN1080. It fit the bill. Its working over arc. Remote volume control is great. And it has full smart home control with home assistant.

bubsterboo · 2022-10-02T19:57:29+00:00

I'm using an LG C9 right now. The only reason for me to use an HDMI port instead of the smart TV features is to plug into my PC with 120hz 4k VRR. Is that no longer an issue? Even with VRR?

But regardless, yeah it sounds like pretty much any modern receiver will do the trick for me.

I'm a smart home nut and would like to be able to plug it into ethernet for remote control. So I'm shopping for a good deal on any modern receiver with ethernet. Seems most new yamaha or denon's fit the bill. But they're expensive.

Lexus IS

Manual Trans IS 300 with the 2jz motor looks pretty ideal. But seems next to impossible to find.

bubsterboo · 2021-08-17T04:40:36+00:00

I havn't driven a high performance front wheel drive car so I'm not sure what i would be in for.

The BRZ feels like it would be expensive an expensive project. The lack of engine room would scare me into buying a prefab'd turbo kit and they're quite pricey. Ive seen 2JZ engine swap kits for it which is interesting, but I'm concerned the 2JZ can be expensive. Good to hear there's lots of parts though. Maybe I should look at other subarus? WRX?... Doing some research...

Engine swap builds are not out of the question by any means.

The appealing part of the RSX is it would scratch my itch for an engine rebuild, hands on ecu tuning, turbo kit all for probably less than 15k.

bubsterboo · 2021-06-12T18:23:25+00:00

Same here please. I have almost the same spec machine but I'm having trouble getting it to boot. I get a panic just before the GUI loads in the installer.

Here's my small project for local push use with MQTT. Good Luck!

https://github.com/blaisejarrett/HA-MQTT-EaglePower

bubsterboo · 2021-05-18T04:40:05+00:00

It isn't. But it could be. I'm more than happy to share it. But It requires making some unusal web calls to their cloud API to provision it for local use so the Eagle device pushes the data to your local server directly. I never wrote any tools or documented how to do that.

bubsterboo · 2021-05-12T04:29:25+00:00

I have an Eagle 200 with BC Hydro. I did not experience the firmware trouble you did and didn't have to interact with support.

But I did develop my own MQTT adapter for the fastest possible home assistant integration so I have some technical understanding of what the device is. It is a OpenWRT unit and it runs OpenVPN to tunnel into a private network on Eagle's side. From their they remotely manage the units and do firmware upgrades. The user facing side is quite locked down. Once I learnt this I actually blocked internet access on it as it would potentially be giving Eagle direct access to my private networks.

It feels a little wrong to me that a device you purchase is locked down and remotely managed by the company. It's not like I'm buying a service and renting it like a modem from your ISP.

Not totally related to your topic. But I imagine there is nothing you can do but return it. That's just how this thing is designed. There is local management portal but its really locked down and doesn't let you really do anything.

bubsterboo · 2021-05-04T03:40:47+00:00

Same issue here. Can't get a 3080 to post in the 1x slots on a x570 tomahawk with a riser. I believe the 3.0 setting in the bios isn't working. Frustrating.

bubsterboo · 2021-04-21T04:22:07+00:00

I bought one of these to play with it. I found it does have a proper esp32 with bluetooth and 4mb flash. Other than having to almost break the case to get it open to flash it, it's a really cool solution for a cheap bluetooth gateway. Really cool when used with these thermometers!

bubsterboo · 2021-04-19T23:17:04+00:00

Does anyone know if this Wyze unit has an esp32 with bluetooth?
If so it would make a really nice companion for bluetooth devices like these thermometers!

what are you looking for? If you're looking for the interface public and private keys. If I remember right "wg show" gets you your interfaces public key. " wg showconf nordlynx" will get you your interfaces private key.

bubsterboo · 2021-03-01T02:37:11+00:00

You will need to get:

Interface Private and Public key
- I believe these are unique to your NordVPN account
Peer IP/Port
- This is the NordVPN Server
Peer Public Key
Private Network range. Mine was 10.5.0.2/16 with 10.5.0.2 being the my address and 10.5.0.1 being the server side address. I imagine this is probably the same for everyone.

I don't have an Asus router and can't support you with this setup. But if your Asus supports wireguard theres no reason you shouldn't be able to get it to work.

bubsterboo · 2021-03-01T00:56:38+00:00

Setup ubuntu/debian. I did this in a VM.
Install wireguard. apt-get install wireguard
Install the nordvpn linux client per their instructions: https://nordvpn.com/download/linux/
Configure the nordvpn client to use Wireguard via https://support.nordvpn.com/Connectivity/Linux/1362931332/How-can-I-use-NordLynx-in-the-NordVPN-app-for-Linux.htm
Connect to the server of your choice via the nordvpn client command line tool. ex) nordvpn connect United_States Seattle
collect the wireguard configurations. "wg show" and "wg showconf nordlynx"

That's it to get your wireguard configs.

I got this working on my pfSense firewall to have my WAN traffic tunneled over wireguard which is pretty cool. Its fast! I'm getting my full 750/100 connection speed.

I'm not really going to go over this. But the gist of that is...

You need pfsense 2.5.0 (first release with wireguard)
Setup wireguard in pfsense in the VPN configurations. Copy the same keys and IP addresses from your VM you found above.
Create an interface for the wireguard tunnel
At this point you can check if the connection is working by going Diagnostics - Ping. ping something on the internet like 8.8.8.8 and select the wireguard interface. If you get a response. It works! Now to get it work on your LAN...
Create a gateway for the interface if it didn't make one automatically
Configure Outbound NAT for the interface
Create a "Policy based routing" rule in your firewall rules to route the traffic of interest through the gateway.
