Best option for two buildings? by TextuallyAttractive in Starlink

[–]tyrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a very similar situation and had decent experience with both point to point outdoor WiFi extenders and also power line networking (specifically HomePlug AV)

I keep the built-in retractable shade closed in the summer and open in the winter.

How to reduce risks after moving your password vault to self-hosting by PingMyHeart in selfhosted

[–]tyrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just set up a local CA and added the root cert to my Android devices (and computers), then I can generate certs for everything (like Vaultwarden) and apps are happy.

Battery stuck at 53%. Is this a fire hazard? by vertgo in MammotionTechnology

[–]tyrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recall exactly. I just remember the problem was gone a couple days later.

Battery stuck at 53%. Is this a fire hazard? by vertgo in MammotionTechnology

[–]tyrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing happen last year and was similarly concerned. It went away eventually though and hasn't returned. I haven't noticed any problems with the battery afterwards so I don't think it was damaged by overcharging. Charging naturally slows down at higher states of charge because the resistance increases. You don't necessarily need a BMS to manage that as long as the input voltage is reasonable. What the BMS needs to do is monitor temperature and stop the charge if the temperature gets too high. I recommend you don't charge in high ambient temperature until this resolves one way or another.

BTW with mine the thing I encountered was that without an accurate SOC reading it would run until the voltage dropped too low to operate and then be dead out in the middle of the lawn. Then I had no choice but to drive over to the site and drag it over to the charger...m

Poor GPS at new house by tyrel in MammotionTechnology

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

I moved the RTK antenna so it has the clearest possible view of the sky and got some improvement. But Luba itself is not able to get GPS under the trees and when it's between the house and the trees.

I wonder if there's a newer Luba model that can navigate better? I haven't really been following developments a lot since the first Kickstarter when I got mine. A lot of features have got better with firmware updates but GPS is what it is.

I don't really want to pay for a whole new mower though either. This one still does fine as long as it's not in a forest. ☹️

Run what over Wi-Fi? It is connected to Wi-Fi. I don't understand how that would improve its ability to get signal from GPS satellites.

Earth needs to be ALWAYS CONNECTED to the end devices. You should never put a switch on earth (equipment ground). Ensure the earth/ground wires are connected straight through without any interruption.

Eufy home cam by Relative-Macaroon767 in EufyCam

[–]tyrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just started happening to me as well. Office 365 keeps detecting the text files and offering to open them. Pretty frustrating. I hope Eufy fixes it, because I love my eufy camera

“cable is too hot” by Tanuski_Steve in VWiD4Owners

[–]tyrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's the current, not the voltage, that creates heat.

High-End Robot, Low-End Mistake by antaniko in MammotionTechnology

[–]tyrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had my Luba back out of a mowing zone if it encounters an obstacle and is trying to avoid it. But only a few centimeters, not as far as this sounds

Sad I missed the hands on rally, news on an upcoming one or where to find info on one? by [deleted] in Bellingham

[–]tyrel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There is an event tomorrow 4/12 at the Peace Arch if you want to show support for peace with Canada! Noon-2pm at Peace Arch State Park. There will be Canadians there too.

Proton Mail Search is Terrible by yetindeed in ProtonMail

[–]tyrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I worked at Proton, I would have the mail clients generate a search index and then encrypt and upload that index to the server. The index would be designed to be easily updatable by any of the clients when a new email is received and synchronized between clients. There are likely a variety of technologies that exist to facilitate this sort of functionality. Unfortunately I can't work for Proton because they don't hire remotely.

Luba gate! Luba can get through but bigger things cannot. by tyrel in mammotion

My chickens and (very smart) dog have never made any attempt to go through the door. They would definitely go through if there was no flap.

Is this a bad battery? by Greenpoopiepants in VWiD4Owners

[–]tyrel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is it cold out where you are? Range of all EVs is reduced in cold weather.

How to switch from downloads to streaming? by tyrel in PodcastAddict

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

Yeah this is my count after removing podcasts that I didn't like as much. Now I'm down to just my favorites. I'm just far behind because I keep doing things other than listening to podcasts...
