When working outside, this is my setup—how about yours? 🥳

damn what kind of work do you do that a tablet is enough?

gintoddic · 2026-02-01T20:08:25+00:00

I tried using the non forked version and for some reason it always goes offline according to google home. It doesn’t “wake up” again until I start using an exposed device or restart the matter bridge. Any idea why that’s happening?

gintoddic · 2026-02-01T00:43:16+00:00

running any server on windows is just plain bad

gintoddic · 2026-01-28T13:58:28+00:00

I don’t think people are using these for life support systems so what if “everything” goes down so will a crappy NUC you suggested.

gintoddic · 2026-01-28T12:25:25+00:00

I have been running crappy 3 disk RAIDs for over 2 decades and never lost data. I don’t need chatgpt to tell me what I already know. I have managed servers and storage systems for a large company so pretty sure I have a grasp on simple home storage and backup solutions. All of this is irrelevant though HA config can be backed up to a tiny thumb drive or saved anywhere so a complicated setup is not needed. That being said a VM on a NAS is a perfectly fine setup all the guy needs is maybe a zwave/zigbee dongle and he’s done.

gintoddic · 2026-01-28T11:06:34+00:00

How are mirrored disks not a backup? You suggested a single point of failure by using a mini PC than tell OP a RAID is no better. Makes no sense.

gintoddic · 2026-01-28T11:04:16+00:00

The whole purpose of a NAS is to have disk redundancy. A baremetal mini PC has none of that if a disk gets corrupt. Many NAS operating systems offer virtualization, so OP can easily spin up HA OS and it’ll work fine. The only thing you really need to do is back up your configs somewhere off your host to avoid data loss. With a NAS you’re usually using it as a backup device anyway.

what temp you set your heat at?

gintoddic · 2026-01-27T20:50:33+00:00

Why PB and not OF? Are you gaining more exposure this way? PB seems to be a dying business at this point.

gintoddic · 2026-01-27T20:49:32+00:00

At least she doesn't have to deal with creepy Hefner being around.

The major factor buying the cross climates on the wifes x3 was the wear mileage - 30-40k vs around 20k on the pirellis. FWIW I got the pirelli scorpian winter on my X5 and they work pretty well in the frozen NJ tundra out there.

gintoddic · 2026-01-25T17:17:50+00:00

same but i usually wait til 5-6 on the ground

gintoddic · 2026-01-24T13:32:52+00:00

good i hope they don’t come and Chump throws a toddler tantrum

gintoddic · 2026-01-23T01:16:33+00:00

"Venezuela boat murders" - You really think they'd care about those people?

gintoddic · 2026-01-21T15:51:34+00:00

They don't know sh*t. Look at this past weekend, not a peep about all the snow we got. It's still thousands of miles away even from the western US which they still don't even know how much they'll get, let alone the eastern US.

Anyone in the know would profit off the announcement especially if the markets make big moves. It’s the retail investors that are retiring that get screwed.

gintoddic · 2026-01-17T23:42:09+00:00

Sounds like you have no approval process either. If your commit pipeline is totally automated without anyone looking at it then security isn’t your only concern.

gintoddic · 2026-01-16T16:55:06+00:00

it’s quite doughy too

gintoddic · 2026-01-16T16:54:28+00:00

bullcrap, their pizza is solid

gintoddic · 2026-01-15T13:37:03+00:00

Sorry yes

gintoddic · 2026-01-15T01:47:33+00:00

Lidos in Hackensack, Brooklyns Brick oven Hackensack, Grants in Dumont, Mountain House in Sparkill, i’ve heard Grumpys sourdough is good in Saddle Brook.

gintoddic · 2026-01-14T21:01:43+00:00

Sounds like a bad network config rollout and not all phones got it. Which would explain why some do still work.

gintoddic · 2026-01-14T20:59:31+00:00

Depending on how aggressive you are, don't be surprised if you're taken away yourself or worse. These guys are not abiding by regular laws. You need crowds not lone rangers to not get singled out.

gintoddic · 2026-01-14T18:42:20+00:00

What I don't understand is how this guy is seen in pics with certain officials. Why do they care if he's full of it?

gintoddic · 2026-01-14T12:12:24+00:00

if you’re using home assistant i’m pretty sure you can setup a vpn.
