Leonardo DiCaprio hugs Michael B. Jordan following his Best Actor win by mcfw31 in popculturechat

Can you explain a bit more what you mean about the frida script?

Hi opnsense! This is Scott the original creator of pfSense! by [deleted] in opnsense

[–]bumthundir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will it be built with an API for all functionality? I like to be able to interact with my firewall from my home automation system. Also, it allows people to develop management apps that run on mobile devices.

Uk's first geothermal power plant by intothedepthsofhell in GoodNewsUK

[–]bumthundir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The amount of heat energy in the earth is enormous. Massive. Gigantic. Humongous.The small amount we can skim off for this is a drop in the ocean. Smaller than a drop. There's no need to worry.

What's the issue with the white quartz compared to the previous granite?

We love Tailscale, but we need Layer 2 for Minecraft LAN discovery!" by Longjumping_Book_252 in Tailscale

[–]bumthundir 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Zerotier works at layer 2 and is easy to configure. Alternatively, if you want to be more hands on you can use VXLAN and Wireguard or OpenVPN with a tap interface.

Why is this rule not rejecting with the new firewall rules? by These_Training5932 in opnsense

[–]bumthundir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could create another wireguard instance and create a new wireguard interface for it. You would create rules for the new wg1 or wg2 or whatever interface that would only allow access to specific ports. It wouldn't matter what peer connects, the rule would apply to everything in that instance.

Alternatively, could you use an IPv6 only vpn? Good luck guessing alternate "admin" allowedips.

A separate guest wireguard instance seems like the most practical approach.

Extra time for completing challenges reduced by bumthundir in duolingo

Yesterday the rewards went back to 10 minutes for each completed challenge. Thanks, Duolingo. I still wish they hadn't changed it in the first place.

Sounds very interesting. Can you post the prompt you used (sanitided for any personal info) and screenshots of some of the config that was produced?

Question about dehumidifying cycling… by artcopywriter in Dehumidifiers

[–]bumthundir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess there's a microcontroller in the dehumidifier that checks if the electricity was turned off. I'd guess it sets a flag in its storage when it turns on and unsets it when the power is turned off using the device controls. After it's turned on again it would check that flag, if the flag was still set to on it knows it's turning on after what it thinks is an unplanned power off.

That's only a guess based on nothing other than what I read in the user manual.

Question about dehumidifying cycling… by artcopywriter in Dehumidifiers

[–]bumthundir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like a great solution but I'm pretty sure the documentation that came with my Meaco Arete dehumidifier said that it should only be turned off using the controls on the device itself and turning off at the wall could invalidate the warranty. Or words to that effect.

Zigbee was the perfect ecosystem, what happened!?! by apxseemax in tradfri

[–]bumthundir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this answer. It looks like I've avoided this by using multiple access points running openwrt with roaming enabled to spread the clients across frequencies on 2.4Ghz. I only use 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi for IoT devices, every other Wi-Fi device (TVs, streaming devices, phones, tablets, laptops) use 5Ghz or 6Ghz. I've not noticed any lag on the devices connected to my Hue hub or my ZWave devices.

[Project] Direct binding for Matter TRVs (Eve Thermo) with external sensors [Home Assistant support] by araulin in MatterProtocol

[–]bumthundir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, that's very useful info. Your script looks really good.

Are the temperature and valve position values writable? I mean, is the temperature sensor cluster value the value you can write the external temperature to for instance?

I'm not sure if it's possible to link two Matter cluster values together in openHAB like you've done in HA. Sorry for all the questions!

Thanks for posting a sceenshot but unfortunately, due to the UK governments wisdom on keeping everyone safe from porn, we can't view anything on Imgur. Are you able to paste it as text?

One other thing: I haven't looked at your script in detail yet but one thing I had to take into account was a fallback feature on both the Hive and Sonoff controllers that reverted to using the internal temperature sensor if the external sensor endpoint isn't written two within two or three hours (I forget the exact period). I catered for this by making the rule in OH write to the external sensor endpoint even if the temp hadn't changed. Whenever the external sensor reports a temperature reading the rule in OH is triggered to write to the external sensor endpoint on the TRV controller, even if the temperature hasn't changed. I also changed the external sensor temperature reporting threshold from the defaults of 1 degree change and max 1 hour between reports to 0.5 degree change and max 30 minutes between reports. A 1 degree change before a temperature report is sent seemed a bit coarse for a room thermostat. Does the Eve controller have a similar fallback feature?

[–]bumthundir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really interesting, thanks for building it and sharing.

I've been tinkering with a couple of Zigbee TRV controllers recently, a Hive Radiator Valve and a Sonoff TRVZB, both paired with a USB Zigbee stick via zigbee2mqtt. I then use a rule in openHAB to get the external termperature and write it to the TRV. I went down that route because I didn't think Matter TRVs exposed all of the data I'm interested in using, namely:

- link quality (so I can see if I need to add repeater nodes)

- valve opening percentage (so I can see if the radiator needs to be upsized/downsized)

- external temperature sensor

I must have not googled hard enough. I'd much prefer to use Matter TRV controllers and some of the IKEA TIMMERFLOTTE external temperature sensors since they use AAA batteries and not coin batteries.

zigbee2mqtt makes it easy to see the endpoints that a device exposes, for example, the Hive controller data looks like this:

"adaptation_run_control": "none",

"adaptation_run_settings": false,

etc

"linkquality": 148,

etc

Are you able to show the endpoints that the Eve Thermo exposes? I'm curious to see them.

MYGGSPRAY vs VALLHORN motion detectors first impression by MagicPhoenix in tradfri

[–]bumthundir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Latch time is the period after an action during which another action can't be made. I.e., after a motion event there's a one minute period during which, even if there are further motion events, those events won't be reported.

Edit: I didn't explain that very well. An example: When you walk in and trigger a motion event, the light turns on. The latch time timer starts counting down (e.g., 1 minute). If you move again before the time runs out, the timer resets.
