I tried that; it re-paired but then disappeared after about a day or so. Figure there is something going on with my NAT/Avahi setup, but this shouldn't be an issue considering it worked before I added TLS. Maybe there is a setting in HA that I need to adjust.

I'm not as familiar with the networking configuration options in HA. I'm assuming I have everything set up correctly since everything else works as intended. I'm running it as a VM in Proxmox and my background is in network development so naturally everything else on my network is installed in regular linux vms/containers behind nginx. Is there a specific config file for https or is it just the usual HA config file?

oh overclocking is still a thing, I do that on my desktop, fan curves can be handled in the bios/uefi. I like good quality higher rpm fans for even desktop use because even at lower speeds they still push a ton of air and are a lot quieter than the cheaper fans on the market. still not absolutely silent, but they don't bother me. That's what headphones are for haha

fair enough, this is my strategy for desktop builds. Big fan of BeQuiet and Noctua, but I've heard good things of Artic as well

I hate that there is such a discrepancy between the amount of Linux server implementation and desktop usage. I'm hopeful for the future though, I've been noticing Linux has been getting more attention.

ah crap. I don't use all the "Uconnect" garbage on my 9 year old Jeep, but it does appear though the dealer can collect (read: steal) info if I bring it in (I do maintenance myself but I have brought it in for recall fixes before). As far as "smart" stuff goes, I do connect my phone via bluetooth but I run GrapheneOS on my mobile so hopefully this mitigates some stuff. I've always thought it was just cars with data connections and cameras/self-driving modules that were the problem (at least in my understanding of networking vis-a-vis my background in network development, but then again cars run different firmware)

thanks, I'll check out photoGIMP. been trying desperately to make GIMP work as I wanna ditch Windows before they stop supporting 10, sooner if I can. I made the switch on everything else already.

because they're notorious for this kind of data collection. My car is older so maybe I've just been out of the market for so long and haven't realized how bad this problem is. Sounds like I will be sticking to my older car for as long as I can lol

For work I heavily rely on the Adobe creative suite (Photoshop and Premiere Pro specifically). I maintain Linux servers (and develop for them) and maintain Linux desktops at both home and for work, but the lack of any alternatives to Photoshop specifically has resulted in me still daily driving Windows (VMs really hamper workflow with regards to GPU passthrough and although I've successfully set up Looking Glass on my workstation in the past, running 2 gpus isn't practical). Yes I've tried the alternatives and while Premiere Pro has usable alternatives, Photoshop does not. GIMP is incredible given that it is FOSS but the UI and feature set is almost unusable (for me at least).

if memory serves me correctly, Trådfri lights run on Zigbee, no? I don't personally use Trådfri but I've got Hue bulbs on my Home Assistant and bypass the Philips Hue hub altogether by running Zigbee2MQTT on my Home Assistant with a Sonoff Zigbee dongle plugged in. that helped solve random Hue Hub disconnects from my HA altogether. I highly recommend running all things zigbee this way.

one of the many reasons I don't want to buy an EV (or any vehicle that touts an overly "smart" feature set)

oh definitley. I usually use 140mm when possible, but they’re harder to find on the cheap in the brushless offerings on eBay. My switches (all 1U) are a different story noise wise, but it is what it is.
