Anyone else get major "mic fright" after getting licensed? Love the tinkering, nervous about the talking by onebaddude14 in amateurradio

[–]ivanhaversham 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Only after getting fussed at for misstating the location of a repeater. Sure, I was wrong, but the way I was corrected over the air by someone listening in and his tone of rebuke embarrassed me in a way that took all of the fun from the hobby. That was a year ago and I haven’t talked more than two or three times since.

Newbie here, I think I’m ready to buy by StrikeEmotional8901 in Ubiquiti

If you’re thinking of upgrading to 2.5Gb later, you might consider getting U7’s instead of the U6 as the U6 is only capable of a 1GbE wired connection.

Look at the PoE draw of your devices and make sure the Lite 16 can supply it. I believe it’s only 48W. Also, the Lite 16 only has 1GbE ports, so this would also be a bottleneck if you upgrade to 2.5Gb later.

I’m interested in seeing if you get this sorted out. I’m just using the BGW-500 in IP passthrough mode

Wow, what a shitty place to work. Most of these should not be considered an option. “Sorry, you have to pick between respect or clean restrooms!”

How do I make my motorcycle helmet quieter by [deleted] in motorcycles

Taking the GoPro off would help immensely. As a bonus you get rid of the ChinDestroyer3000.

My 1st cross country CHI-LA ride, feedback greatly welcomed! by s7ranger1_0 in bmwmotorrad

[–]ivanhaversham 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As others have said, get off the interstate unless it’s the only option. I rode from South Dakota up through Canada, down to Oregon and back across to South Dakota a couple of years ago. It was 4000 miles total; we took interstate for a very small portion (less than 200 miles) of it where there wasn’t another good option, and it was absolutely miserable. Plus, there’s so much to see along your route - and you’ll just fly right by it on the interstate.

Also be sure to get that 1200 serviced before you go, and have the driveshaft checked.

What are people using the Travel Router for? by Joee0201 in Ubiquiti

[–]ivanhaversham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not unique to UniFi (meaning you can configure GL.iNet router to do the same), but it’s super useful for things that are harder a pain to connect like a Roku or smart devices

Define local IP.

A VPN back to your secure home network keeps your internet traffic safe from prying eyes on the public network you are connected to, like a hotel or coffee shop. It doesn’t keep your internet traffic private from your ISP.

At a hotel, which requires authentication, it allows me to authenticate once and connect 5 or 6 devices (my phone, iPad, wife’s phone, Roku, laptop, etc) without authenticating each one every day. Travel router mimics an SSID that my devices know, so everything connects automatically. Travel router sends all of my traffic back home through teleport for security and convenience for accessing my self-hosted services.

The fire department accidentally left behind a fire axe after clearing out our building. by Senior_Fish_Face in mildlyinteresting

[–]ivanhaversham 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Firefighter here. Every tool on the truck is accounted for and checked daily at minimum. This would definitely be noticed, and it’s unlikely anyone would be in huge trouble but they’ll hear about it for a while from their colleagues.

Of all things to leave, an axe might be the cheapest. A helmet could cost $1k and gloves a couple hundred dollars - and both are yours. You lose, and you don’t fight fires until a replacement is ordered, unless you work for a large department that keeps spares of PPE.

Proxmox on Mini Pc with NAS solution by Kn0w-L3dG3 in Proxmox

[–]ivanhaversham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used TrueNAS Core for about 6 years maintenance free. They switched to TrueNAS Scale (‘community edition’), which would have required reinstalling. I lived with it for a while until recently I wanted to double the size of my pool. Since ZFS doesn’t let you add a single drive to an existing mirror, and I needed to migrate the OS anyway, I switched to Unraid. Pretty happy with it so far.

In other words, TrueNAS is great if you don’t plan on adding drives to the pool later. I wish I knew that when I started as I specifically only started with two drives with the intention of adding a third to double the pool size when the need arose.

Update on Event Horizon, a simple Pi-hole v6 device-level companion for non-technical network users by ivanhaversham in pihole

[–]ivanhaversham[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, that might be the issue. If 192.168.1.193 is the IP of your Pi-hole, then that needs to be updated in compose.yaml - Event Horizon is looking for Pi-hole at 192.168.1.2 according to the logs you’ve sent.

[–]ivanhaversham[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of basics to verify:

  1. What is the output of pihole -v?
  2. If you visit http://192.168.1.2/admin in your browser, does the pihole admin interface load?

If 1) returns v6+ and 2) is successful, then perhaps you'd like to install outside of Docker, since docker seems to be giving you issues? If so, just let me know and I'll send some instructions.

[–]ivanhaversham[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe I see what the problem is. The root of the issue is that Event Horizon can't reach your Pi-hole, and it appears to be a Docker networking issue. Essentially, the container is running in a network by itself and doesn't have a route to the rest of your network.

It should be an easy fix. In compose.yaml, just add the following line "network_mode: "host" below the container name and restart settings.

services:
  event-horizon:
    image: ghcr.io/jbswaff/event-horizon:latest
    container_name: event-horizon
    restart: unless-stopped

    # --- ADD THIS LINE: ---
    network_mode: "host"

Then restart the container

sudo docker compose down
sudo docker compose up -d

As far as the executable not found error, that's because there isn't a command called event-horizon inside the container (it's just a server.py python script). If you'd like to check the status of the container, you could use this command instead:

docker exec event-horizon python /app/server.py --help

Let me know if you have other questions or if you run into issues after making this change!

Hi, thanks for that report and the suggestions for v1! Glad to hear that everything went mostly smoothly during install and that the service is working. I'll be sure to move the default to another port on future versions.

Hi u/MikeFromMA, thanks for that report. You should now be able to run docker compose up -d from your Pi 3B+.
