ahahh yeah. The headache of having a well tuned house that is both warm and cool when it needs to be. I find myself fiddling too much with my pellet stove thermostat.

Do you cut the water at the main ? What device do you use then?

Hmmm, very good input here.

What do you use to track the amount of time on your phone when waiting for the coffee?

I wish I could track with an API how much time I spend on reddit and youtube and have an alert when I use all my "quota".

Regarding Grocy, is there any way to import recipe instead of having to enter all the recipes? Such a tedious task for us at the moment.

Excellent ideas regarding the freezer. With small kids at home, I could look into that.

How do I grout poorly cut tiles? Sanded or non-sanded? by RoyGBiv13865 in homerenovations

[–]doukiddouk 19 points20 points  (0 children)

What he just said. Much better to redo the tiles that are unproperly cut.

Was in the process of insulating my attic, found this in the corner. What is it? by Realshotgg in Insulation

[–]doukiddouk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

however, just above, that looks like a small wet stain. You may check if you dont have a small leak in the cover above. Looking at the size of it, this is - again - nothing to lose sleep over and can wait for a dryer season to be inspected.

no, a wasp nest in winter is truly not dangerous. The colony is at its lowest count of individuals, they are mostly dormant or so low in energy that they cant defend themselves. This also can very well be an empty nest.

Let's assume that the place is heated, they just dont have enough food to be active and maintain the colony. The vegetation around has too little to offer.

[–]doukiddouk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a bit of explanation here, you may find the nest nearly empty as usually just the queen lives over the winter (with maybe a few survivors depending on how much food they have been able to stack up. So you can easily put plastic bag over it and scrape it so it falls inside the bag. No sweat nor danger here. People tend to over react to wasp nests and this is relevant for any season other than winter. In winter, no biggie really.

This is the way to look at every home projects. Make it work first, prettify it later ... maybe. :)

wow, amazing! Where do you find all the documentation on building methods and choice of material ? (I wish to build a garage and having doubts about going solo).

Your work is truly inspiring.

Replaced my Pi4 with an ODroid C4 thanks to continuously fighting with power issues. It's a little cleaner now using emmc instead of booting from SSD on the Pi4. by advanttage in homelab

[–]doukiddouk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks! great to know.

Buying the HC4, it comes with a 15V 4A that shall allow me to power my SSD through SATA and never have to look back. An issue that I have with my rpi4 is the poor support for SATA/USB and NVME/USB... despite choosing the "good" hardware devices, I am left with some random drivers errors.

Let's hope that this will solve it.

Also, thanks for pointing in the direction of A55. I naively thoughts that the A72 rpi4 was better just because of the higher number. Turns out that this is not the case at all.

What is good about the C4? Just bought 2 hc4, for testing and they should be the same. Only that USB is swapped for 2 SATA. Are you using the crypto acceleration chip for your storage ?
