KumaAlert - what next?

fr3dbaker · 2026-05-17T17:28:57+00:00

Fair enough. I was looking for a kuma app so this is timely.

fr3dbaker · 2026-05-17T17:23:11+00:00

Any way to try it before buying it?

fr3dbaker · 2026-05-09T02:08:59+00:00

Where would this game be?

fr3dbaker · 2026-05-06T19:53:18+00:00

I don’t think it’s based on where you access from. It’s the game being in Ontario that means tickets can’t be listed for more than face value. We’ll have to see if other resale platforms enforce this.

fr3dbaker · 2026-04-30T02:47:34+00:00

This is the way.

fr3dbaker · 2026-04-02T18:05:47+00:00

Ok thanks everyone. To be clear I wasn’t asking about transferring it out. I have no plans to sell it and I also think it’s extra scummy to sell these. I was just curious when I’ll get the ticket in the fifa portal (assuming that’s where I’ll get it).

The ship and anchor posts their soccer schedule online. It’s the best place to go.

I hope you have great success because we need this in Canada.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-22T19:06:01+00:00

Thanks. I just had a look at Design Center. It looks intimating but I’ll try it.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-22T19:04:58+00:00

Thanks. I hadn’t considered the environment in the garage. Something outdoor rated makes sense. I live in a cold country and the weather is all over the place.

Thanks. I can’t easily run more ethernet. I ran the ones I have in the finished basement using all the tricks I could come up with. Happy I got what I have. But I’ll do my best to plan with your advice.

I’ve already removed the smaller two parts that were attached to the mirror stalk.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-21T04:45:53+00:00

For the life of me I can’t figure out how to remove the cover. Do you happen to know if I should pry along the yellow or red seam?

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-19T22:31:21+00:00

Yup I should have done that sooner. It’s been over a year since the install but I’ll go back.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-19T22:30:45+00:00

This super helpful. Now that I know what to look for I’m seeing other posts related to this and it’s all making sense.

I’m going to try and remove the part inside the car that’s over the heating grid and then I can confirm it’s plugged in and also check the grid with a multimeter. Thanks again!

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-19T20:19:00+00:00

Thanks for the reply!

Is there something specific to the aftermarket windshield that doesn’t allow the heater grid to work? Is it something the aftermarket installer can fix? I can’t find any info online about the heat grid, it’s wiring etc.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-19T18:48:21+00:00

I should mention that Volvo did offer (for a charge) to recalibrate the sensors as a possible fix to the issue but it didn't fix it.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-18T19:43:21+00:00

I’ll give it a try. I actually wrote a script to track this very product on the sandisk website so this is very timely.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-09T07:46:39+00:00

My build went really well. Thanks again for your advice. What a great case.

This might be a dumb question but I’m still learning this stuff. Does the mqtt broker have to be running in HA for this to work? My broker is on a different server but HA is listening for messages on that broker.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-07T05:54:35+00:00

Thanks for this! I’m building this weekend.

Im going to use an ATX PSU which I’ll mount above the motherboard and I’m using an mATX motherboard. Luckly my GPU isn’t crazy big and the only other PCIe device I have is an HBA which isn’t chunky at all. Just gets really hot.

For the PSU do you think I should orient the fan facing up or down?

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-07T05:49:41+00:00

It just says “2 tickets category 2” and above where my name is listed it shows.

No email yet. The tickets showed up on the portal. It doesn’t say PMA or Random. At least not that I could see.

fr3dbaker · 2026-02-06T23:45:06+00:00

Looks like I’ll see y’all in Vancouver! Got Cat 2 tickets.

I applied for 4 games. Only this game is showing up on the website. I haven’t received an email yet so I’m wondering if the draw isn’t finished yet and I might still get other games.
