I have a Shelly plug that is programmed internally to turn itself on if off for 20 seconds. Home assistant turns the plug off for 10 seconds if curl ip.me fails for 15 minutes.
My modem is plugged into that.
I’ve never had a router or firewall crash if I wasn’t fucking with it and did something
stupidill-advised, so I don’t try that kind of stuff unless I’m home. - Comment on Firefox Finally Introducing Matroska / MKV Playback Support 6 days ago:
Me to handbrake for two decades: stop trying to make MKV happen! It’s not going to happen!
Guess I owe them an apology
- Comment on I wish there was a system to verify that a webpage was written by an actual human before showing me it 1 week ago:
Some search engines let you block sites from future results. If I’m on my desktop, I’ll knock out the obvious ones on the first page of a search. I’m hoping one day I get them all and can eradicate it once and for all.
- Comment on Getting Started with Proxmox 1 week ago:
To piggyback on the permissions hissy fit-
My aar stack, openmediavault, and transmission stack have different usernames mapped to the same uid and it is a pain in the ass. I “fixed it” by making a NAS group that catches them all, but by “fixed it” I really mean “got it working”
So be aware of what uid will own a file and maybe change it to a uid in the 1100+ range to make NFS easier in the future.

Pretty much anything with a heat spreader should be impossible to accidentally kill. Bare die? May dog have mercy on your soul.

- Comment on The Sense And Nonsense Of Virtual Power Plants 2 weeks ago:
Moss Landing battery storage facility has repeatedly caught fire, which highlights another potentially major savings for grid operators, as the fallout of such events are instead borne by the operator of the battery, which for the DSGS would be the home owner.

Those PTC start relays die all the time. These are rated a 200k starts, approx 5 years at 4.5 starts an hour.

- Comment on How did it come to be that only two companies supply all of the world's PC graphics chips? 2 weeks ago:
You’ve watched Google,Facebook, and apple do it the last 20 years. If a good idea is spotted early enough, they buy the whole company before they can make it to market and grow to become a threat. It happens in any emerging tech and you’re watching it happen now in the LLM space. Companies burn cash, waiting for their competitors to make a mistake or run out of money. Then they buy out the struggling company, absorbing any tech they might have, maybe some branding, but more importantly- their customers. Now they can jack up prices once market forces are eliminated.
If not for the threat of anti-trust laws, you would see single company rule in every single sector. That is the end goal of a company- a monopoly that crushes potential competition and squeezes consumers.
Railroads, telephone, petroleum, internet, airlines, all ended up as regional monopolies. - Comment on Homelab networking recommendations? 2 weeks ago:
If you’re in the omada ecosystem, a one-off unifi device is going to frustrate you. They’re trying to wrangle you into buying shit like this: store.ui.com/us/en/products/up-floodlight
Which part is slow? I run a software controller in a proxmox VM and it is plenty quick. My router is an opnsense vm and has 8 ryzen 7700x threads assigned to it, so no problems there 😁
- Comment on running Media Services on NAS or separate server 2 weeks ago:
I keep my Linux ISOs on mergerfs over NFS via open media vault. All of them are easily replaced so I don’t bother backing them up.
Nextcloud, paperless, and photos get their whole image backed up on proxmox local, and a remote PBS. I’m the only user so the sizes are quite manageable.

I think it’s more about extracting money from normies, not someone savvy enough to run a model locally. And I don’t know if they do or don’t, I was just trying to explain the comic.

Much like Amazon has an incentive to not show you the specific thing it knows you’re searching for, people theorize that these interfaces are designed to burn through your tokens.
- Comment on Toyota Is Recycling Old EV Batteries to Help Power Mazda's Production Line 2 weeks ago:
Those brake pads are the same not because they are aftermarket- PBR supplied both systems originally and recycled much of the designs and tooling.

They were both assembled in Flat Rock at the same time, but the Mazda based platform was CD3. That’s the Fusion and Edge.

Founded in 1986, Hanon Systems started off as an auto parts maker and ventured into thermal management systems for electric vehicles in 2015. It currently supplies thermal control solutions to auto giants such as Hyundai Motor Company, Kia, Ford Motor Company and General Motors.
Brembo provides brake systems for everyone. Recaro makes seats for everyone. Only premium models get the branding, but it’s pretty common for Brembo to make the base, performance,and halo trim brakes on a car.
Hell, look at the fitment of these brake pads- the calipers are very similar too because they were all made by PBR

- Comment on What external services do you use for your selfhosting setup? 2 weeks ago:
I have a $5/mo vps running caddy over wireguard to get better routing when I’m on mobile.
Otherwise, my traffic goes to my home ISPs hub 600 miles away and back. The VPS is less than 100 miles away and it performs much better.
- Comment on choosing a NIC for OPNsense 4 weeks ago:
I know you’re looking for non-intel solutions but here is my setup-
Mobo r8169 is the management interface for proxmox X710 4 port- 3 ports passed as a a single vmbr for LAN 1 fiber optic to detached building 1 DAC to core switch 1 DAC to workstation 1 port passed as vmbr for WAN
That config was sorta inherited by trying to pass other non-intel nics as pcie and failing. I needed an sfp for the fiber run so I got that 4 port Intel card. It works well enough that I haven’t bothered to reconfigure it to pass the Intel as pcie.
