Coils & curves?
From my viewpoint it looks like balance and counter balance 🙂
Are those all balanced, pivoting around a power outlet?


I’m preferring 1 thing for 1 job, so if / when a dongle fails or I want to change something, then I’m only affecting 1 protocol / group of devices.
So, that would play music on the client? Ie your phone? Or can it play through a local DAC too?
Ok, not heard of Moode. The website looks interesting, I’ll check it out, thanks!
Ah, interesting, so you can use mopidy with HA? Interesting… not thought of that connection.
I have the Volumio integration with HA, but I’ve not looked at it recently.
Thanks
I remember trying piCorePlayer when I was considering alternatives to Volumio3 and - from memory - the UI was a bit weird?
Like, it started in one UI, but then you had to do a few things to get to another?
But, ok, I’ll take another look as I’d forgotten about it. Thanks


Yeah, an interesting piece.
As someone who’s seen the internet arrive, watched the various battles (best seen on Internet Explorer at 640x320) and tried all the latest things (why use gopher when google can search immediately), then I do think it started out well
But, yep, I’ve also seen the effects when the bills needed paying and realising that just taking things that are “free” without giving anything back is unsustainable.
That’s why I contribute when & where I can… Arch Wiki, Open Street Map, a few payments to developers and independant media sources, helping others…
But it takes some effort and I get it, not everyone has the same priorities. Yet.


I could not for the life of me make the ethernet transfer speeds be more than somewhere around 1-5 MiB/s
That’s probably a physical cable issue.
Check the connectors and / or different cables.
It’s esp. more important for 1Gbps connections as they’re more sensitive than 100Mbps


Ok, fair point
If I’ve understood @surewhynotlem@lemmy.world correctly, this won’t need 2 automations
When you exceed a max, I presume you’re triggering the AC to heat / cool, at this point you’d also set the “dontlogthisagain” boolean.
Then, when you’d reached the correct temp range, then you can turn off the AC and reset the “dontlogthisagain” boolean.
The conditional statements would then be “(is the temp outsode of range) AND (dontlogthisagain=True)”
You’d need to check the logic is the right way around there, but - in my head - thst should work.
Edit: actually, thinking anout this some more, you might not need the boolean, you could use the on/off state of the AC unit itself


Ahhh, well spotted


Ah, ok.
Yep, I’m in a similar situation… I have a few VMs, but not enough for lots of failover infrastructure… (redundant switches, etc)
I was thinking you might be just cloning 1 device to the other or something.


It’s now running as a VM in ProxMox on a pair of Lenovo M710q mini PCs
So, have you got High Availability setup? If so, I’d like to know more about that part…


Yeah, this is what I’d like clarified too
Am I just setting up a schedule on the server and then pushing out config to the other devices and can then shut down the server? (For example)
Where do I need to install restic?
Is this local only or to an offsite (Hetzner) location?


Let me know which repo this update appears in.


I had a quick look at the docs… so, can I backup my DB version X and restore it to DB version Y?


Ok, yeah, late to the discussion, but that’s because I used RFC2549


It’s difficult to do security-only updates when the fix is contained within a package update.
Even Microsoft’s security updates are a mix with secuirity updates containing feature changes and vice versa.
I usually do an update on 1 random device / VM and if that was ok (inc. watching for any .pacnew files) and then kick Ansible into action for the rest.
It’s easy to decide: AUR (only)
Personally, I use
pacmanfor as much as I can, then dip intoyayfor anything else.
