Controller Oriented Interface for linux? in c/[email protected]

This.

Using a CEC link will make things even more simple, but that might involve additional hardware. Those raspberry thingies have native CEC on hdmi. For x86 you might have to look at some extra hardware.

And of course, Kodi is an example of a 10 foot interface.

Bluetooth or wifi, depending on the number of accesspoints..

Anyway, a really smart hack!

Sony SRS-RA8000 owner here. Can confirm it works with the plugin mentioned above.

Using Harman Kardon hardware yields in a way less happy experience.

NetApp makes storage devices, just like Dell's DataDomain.

Looks like the ad is referring to a ST6000NM0034, a drive from Seagate. Personally, I like to stay away from that brand as far as possible.

Have had good experiences with WD.

Thanks for the pointer.

This is really huge, but people don't quite understand that yet.

If this wasn't caught, every system -running public sshd- could be hacked or abused/misused.

And I completely agree with the last words, corporate should pay foss projects!

Vlans firewall rules and something to route between the different networks.

This can all be achieved with pretty much every Linux installation.

Ok, this is really over the topz but I like it. Wouldn't be too hard, to open the gate when the mower engages.

Clever and nice touch of adding the drain.

First check the dontvacuum.me site for compatibility.

Flash with modified firmware, run valetudo and disconnect from the Chinese cloud.

Valetudo integrates with HA.
