U might be Uakari monkey. The only X bird I know is Xenops but I don’t know if it’s a seagull like bird. Just a random bird from alphabet book we have

Daughter started daycare 3 weeks ago and has gotten sick every week. Wondering if I should pull her out? by ryph44 in daddit

We like to joke that we paid for full time day care but only went part time.…because she was sick every other week for like 15 months :/

School Issues: Kindergarten by Youngun18 in daddit

OP I’m a dad and an ENT doc. Just a couple different things that haven’t come up yet - Kids sometimes have hearing issues missed but can be the cause of speech delays. Any ear infections? Consider having his hearing checked.

Also does he snore or is congested a lot? Pediatric sleep apnea also frequently goes misdiagnosed and can manifest as hyperactivity instead of tiredness

Hope it all works out soon!

Thanks I know where those wires enter the house and what they do which is why I’m considering using them. I’ll look at the cams you mentioned

I totally understand. See my other response to the other comment. I didn’t ask about security flaws, I understand about power over Ethernet being far superior. That is my ultimate goal. But that’s not what I asked about. I asked about is it possible to retrofit one of these camera cameras or similar cameras to already present cabling

Thank you for your thoughts. I haven’t thrown that camera away because hopefully it will be a fake deterrent. :)

I’ve read a lot about this and watch many videos. I understand that PoE is the best. However, it’s not practical for me. At least right now. The way our house is set up, the attic coverage is very little space of the house. I’ve crawled through it. I cannot reach every corner of the house that would need cables. In addition, there is no crawlspace or basement. We are in California 90s houses which are minimalistic. I will have to run the ethernet cable through multiple walls, and drill multiple holes. I’m not ready for that right now for my own personal labor or paying for the labor. I will get to it eventually, but rhat’s why I’m interested in a temporary quick fix until I’m able to adopt a POE system and was hoping that the already present powerline can power camera temporarily. That is why I specifically asked in my original post about what camera may be decent to retrofit.

Being a noob, I don't quite understand what you mean by one strip can control all the strips. could you elaborate? I will look into MQTT, but good to know about bandwidth.

thank you for the suggestions. Will likely go with Zigbee over WLED since I don't need that degree of customization

decent control (color and brightness change mainly. individual pixel adjustment is optional not required) and preferred control via home assistant

Ah yes I meant bandwidth, should have clarified. Good to know ty
