I saw a lot of people out of propane in the 2 weeks after Helene. Propane should be a strategic reserve- natural gas should be the primary for generator fuel and heating. Let someone else store it.

Yeah I'd rather deal with this than a blind persons gear not work

The door locks are often wax motors, which extend pretty quick when heated but have to cool off to release. The re-lock sounds like a huge wtf. Couldn't they just limit the tumble rpm so they don't have to lock?

I ditched my front load petri dish for a 10 year old Speed Queen top loader off marketplace. No regerts.

I have a half-bath with a modern holder. When that roll is 75% consumed, I move it to the bathrooms with the older style.

I suffered with 15w and 25w RadioShack irons for a decade. Pitted tips, insulation melted to the barrel, friggin trash.

For my birthday I got a Hakko fx888d. I wish I'd got it 10 years ago. They sell the iron and the tips at microcenter, and I got an assortment while I was there. Well, they used to. Last time I was there, three electronic components were on closeout...

My point it, it's $150 well spent. I didn't dig too deep researching irons, but knew that hakko was a classic. I think anything with a temperature sensor and adjustable output and easy to find parts will make you very happy.

I've had wemos d1 boards from AliExpress show up as a brltty and the braille teletype driver grabs the device. Just something to look out for on some distros

I made beer tap handles out of some

+4dBu is 3.472 V peak to peak. You'd need 3 batteries to hit full line level, before you even get into the 0.7v silicon junction losses.

Remember that you're making an AC signal from a DC power supply. The output is centered at half the battery voltage. It's exactly the same as a class A amplifier.

People already use 9V for their pedals too.

Great, now I will need one of these for my computer

You can't just bring in every stray you find on the street

From the release notes- Fixed the bug that that multicast acceleration caused VLAN data forwarding errors.

I was having problems with Google home starting a multicast flood. Opened a ticket with TPLink, and 3 weeks later it's fixed!

I could power down the GH with the offending IP address and the flood would continue. Unplugging the EAP wouldn't always fix it either. I did some wiresharking and sent them diags, and they recreated the bug and squashed it!

travel routers (self.selfhosted)
submitted 1 year ago by lemming741 to c/selfhosted
 

So I've seen the TP-Link and GL.inet travel routers, and it looks like some of the GLs are/were built to run wrt firmwares. Stock TP firmwares have been pretty full features in my experience. I really want USB-C power. The GL wireguard support looks useful too, but it looks like their newer stuff is proprietary? Another want, not need, is 5 GHz band.

Does anyone have a favorite model or another board that can be flashed?

 

I'm working in the template editor, and if I use the 'and' operator, an entity disappears. I finally found/guessed a working combination but I can't find any examples to see the right combo of operators and parenthesis. HA tells you to look at jinja docs, jinja literally says "There is not an awful lot to talk about here"

any template guru out there know the secret sauce?

I'd asked about using a VPS to get better routing to my homelab in this post: https://lemmy.world/post/1424540

I've narrowed down my problem- if i use a subdomain in my caddyfile, performance is 1/3 or worse compared to just the root.

example.com {reverse_proxy 192.168.1.57}

will saturate my gigabit lan connection at 980ish. On a 5gUW connection i get my advertised 50 mbit or more

librespeed.example.com {reverse_proxy 192.168.1.57}

I get 220-250 megabits on my internal lan. The same 5gUW connection will only get 7 or 8 mbit.

It's strange to me that everything seems to work just fine, but it's just slow. Anyone got any ideas?

 

I've got 1000/50 service from a mid-size ISP. It's pretty consistent- any time I run a speed test from home, it will hit those numbers. I have an opnsense plugin checking twice a day.

Performance from my self-hosted services to the internet, however, is very inconsistent. Sometimes I get the full 50, sometimes it will only hit 5 Mbit/s.

Is it possible a VPS proxy could provide less congested routes? Is there a better way to troubleshoot the bottleneck? When i notice a slowdown, usually watching a clip on frigate, I'll use a public speedtest to check my field connection. If it's over 50 down, I'll check librespeed on my server. If frigate or plex is fast, librespeed will be too. If I've noticed a problem, librespeed has always agreed.

My host machine is a 5700g w/ 64 gigs of ram, X520 nic to an S33 modem, so I don't think it's a hardware bottleneck.
