  • Bigscreen only just came back around, I wouldn’t go too heavy there yet (and I’m testing it out already myself)

    Get flex launcher instead. Simple config, does the job.

    In terms of specs, there is a lot in your list that can vary, and make those specs jump. Where to start, IMO, would be a 7th gen Intel. If an 11th gen is an option, there and up transcoded av1.

    For storage you’re going to have to do the math yourself in terms of what you’ll have. I have 40tb of media. I used to have a 1tb drive for everything. Storage is how much you want to allocate, nothing more or less.

    Ram is similar. Find the worst case game, most overloaded with plugins Minecraft server or whatever, and start there on memory use. JF won’t take much, your game choice might.


  • Silverware would probably be the oldest, my wife’s grandmother bought them in the early 1900s as antiques, and then some “modern” accessories that matched, now antiques themselves. They get used on special occasions mostly.

    I have a slow cooker thats ~30yrs old, works great.

    The DVD/VHS player with FireWire for minidv is also used while I convert old family videos to digital, and my old dv camcorder is now in my daughter’s hands to try making movies with her friends.

    I’m sure there’s more, but thats off the top of my head.

    (Removed the copy/paste accident from work crap)





  • Be aware that you may need to temporarily use reolink’s app to set it up first - turn on the ports, for rtsp/onvif/http(s) then you can trash the app.

    I think the HA integration will use the proprietary port/api for setup and you can avoid that way too, but don’t quote me on that one, you may want to confirm first.


  • I’m with you, I don’t like having to do the same thing more than once

    I set up an “about my repos” repo, which has a readme detailing the process, and explanations of what is where and what they are all for, which is what I point clients to. That also has a link to my personal forgejo to demo local git as well (which can also sync, btw) along with a note that it may be down for various reasons like updates or changes I’m making, which is why I also sync elsewhere.

    Depending on what services you’re selling to clients, it makes for a neat and simple addition to the list of skills to demo!

    And you’re kind of making me want to use a mini rack as an excuse to my wife for a 3d printer, but she already knows I’m not getting rid of my 12-15RU racks under my desks, so I’m going to have to wait until we find the property we want so I can build my workshop…



  • With the app, yes, if you enabled notifications with thumbnails. Using the app and giving cameras internet access is the issue there. Deleted data stayed longer than people expected, too.

    The crappy generated URLs for camera access was eufy’s fault, but thumbnails in notifications from the app I would consider a user ignorance issue personally.

    That said I do not ever recommend using any manufacturer’s app, or giving a camera internet access. Isolate it on a vlan, firewall it off, and use a local open source NVR that you’ll access directly.

    Shitty hard right rich douche put together dotfiles for arch, called it a distro, and was given lots of money from 1password.

    DHH being a hard right rich douche is not news, but 1password giving $300k to aforementioned hard right asswipe is recent news.

    Thats a reasonable summary IMO.





  • “I tried nothing and it didn’t work” isn’t a strategy that works for me.

    I’m not going to sit on my butt and complain into the void. I will do everything I can to get to where I want the world to where I hope it can go.

    Organizing is not in conflict with anarchism.

    Pretending the system doesn’t exist or that not participating in any way will change it is a fool’s errand.

    Feel free to find another way to participate, but trying to push others to not do what they can, to me, is (at best) an effort to continue the downward trend.




  • Keeping Dem incumbents in power by slavishly voting for them every time they come up for re-election is exactly how the party has stayed as limited as it has.

    Confusing the general elections and primaries are also an issue.

    You aren’t changing the ticket a month and change before the election.

    Work to do that starts earlier. I worked with some DSA and WFP folks to get some socialists minded folks on more local tickets, unfortunately there was nothing for the larger positions this time around.

    If you don’t like the people on the ballot, you will need to start making efforts much, much earlier than weeks before voting begins.

    PS: I don’t vote for speeding up the destruction of the world. Full stop.
