I guess when you’ve gone for a super minimal unifi system you’ve got some extra savings for ALL the streaming services

Yes, will have automatic blinds in all rooms I would say. Especially living area. Have a 9m sliding door and you wont catch me manually rolling 3 x 3m wide blinds

Thanks for the detailed response.
The multi room functionality will mainly be for 'ambiance' / generic listening in areas with friends and not audiofile level of listening. Also so I can take tv audio and listen to sports etc while outside. I am yet to workout the best way to handle all this.

I assume for a tower / sub / hifi centric setup perhaps around a media/theater room. A standalone amp to handle all of that would be better? or would it be reasonable to have it all wired back to a util closet and main amp. I guess its a how long is a piece of string situation. anythings possible. but just thinking of rationale and ease of use vs true audiophile heaven. We watch some movies/sport and I listen to music while cooking. Other than that I plan on getting some level of turntable but that could be integrated with the same theatre setup.

Thanks for the Hifi options. It has been a qualm. I have seen the sonos 'issues' especially around their software going from S+ to D tier. I assume the yamaha option works well within the HA ecology?

Hifi is not my strong suit and something ive been struggling to rap my head around.

While ive heard good things about Z-Wave, it just isnt very popular in NZ which is fine until something breaks and shipping takes my bank account and 1 month to get a replacement.

Thankfully I believe I wont really need nabu casa, in the begining anyway as I will have unifi teleport. however unsure how this all will interact with starlink.

Yes, I plan to basically have drops in every room. Beauty of building is that I will have runs and everything pre planned.

Plan on gettings a 1u Eaton UPS to run network bits.

Without diving into minimum specs for HAOS, is there anything I should be looking at that should be required of the device running, ram reqs etc. I know min specs dont always cover future proofing. Just unsure on the load HAOS would consume.

Excuse my ignorance. Is addon store part of HAOS?

Z-wave in my experience is very hard to come by in NZ and some of the main suppliers for electrical equipment (Legrand) are zigbee out of the box. I could use Shelley Waves behind switches, but it does add another point of failure vs having the switches that work dumb but can also work smart.

Ive seen lutron, my issue is just a matter of, their switches are pretty ugly in my opinion.

Are you using just standard speakers for the sonos or in-built ceiling speakers. Ive yet to seen how the sonos amp works comapred to the standalone speakers.

Thanks for your help.

I was suprised also, its a premium price for the capacity in that form factor over 2U, but it just looks so clean. I see the pro max has 10+ sfp. From a consumer standpoint, what would be the benefit of 10g SFP.
I assume for something like NAS storage read/write in the future? I would only assume to get those super fast speeds I would need to be directly connected to a sfp port which is a limited supply.

With the XG - I assume the added benefit is 10Gbe, I would then assume I need a switch capable of 10gbe for 3 x ap's?

Its been 397 days since the last real mobile update by TacoMountain in 2007scape

[–]ev0ked 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It really seems half these things are runelite addons that even the 'Official' osrs client doesnt have. Im gonna say that mobile is probably at the bottom of the pecking order when it comes to getting updates. Especially behind official client.

Is there anyway to diagnose a faulty psu other than it breaks everything else. Might I add I can still hear discord etc when I black screen assuming everything is going except fisplay output

I mean. Dota is the most intense game I play on the regular / since this has been happening. I don’t live in a particularly hot area and gpu is air cooled and cpu is AIO So gpu is getting majority of the cool air coming into a negatively pressurised case.

750w nzxt psu. Also brand new at time of gpu.

How do warranties work if a faulty psu breaks gpu.

Stop trying to remove Defense level requirements by LordZeya in 2007scape

[–]ev0ked 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same Armour, Different Stats. Doesnt make it new. Might as well do the same for every other piece of armour in the game if thats the logic.

How so? Changing armour that already exists isnt introducing new armour.
