It doesn’t really lend itself to a summary outside of the first paragraph.

They bought a specific thing for the reasons stated in the first paragraph and if you need something to do that then read on otherwise don’t bother.

It’s right on the top bar in the latest UI. At the same level as choosing movies or tv shows. It’s very easy to get to in fairness.

There’s a prime only browsing section but but you don’t seem to be able to limit the search to only return prime included stuff.

I ditched Disney+ when they added 50% onto the price. The exit questionnaire was annoying as it had one answer that lumped in “can’t afford it” with “too expensive” which implies it’s a “me” problem when it was definitely a “them” problem.

I would have ditched Amazon Prime when they added adverts with an optional 50% price hike to remove them but my wife didn’t want to lose the prime delivery.

The intention is that we subscribe to Disney+ for a few months a year and catch up on what we missed.

Microsoft SQL Server is most commonly set up as case insensitive in my (limited) experience (it does support case sensitivity too).

Blocking X would be a good start.

It is a little bit similar in that the Taliban also said that they were going to be more moderate. That didn’t last very long though.

Also said that he was against slavery but didn’t free his slaves even though he could have done legally in his state.

I don’t see Taken as a revenge movie. He was rescuing his daughter from human trafficking.

I can’t think of many people in the film who were killed in revenge (I can only think of the auction manager and the guy in the chair).

Although a quick google suggests that many people do think of it as a revenge movie.

Unfortunately not, no.

That sounds like it is still a VPN client which is directing your outbound traffic according to how you have it configured.

You want to have a VPN server that routes inbound traffic to the relevant internal network device (hassio, NAS, printer etc) so that they can be used from outside the network.

The first step is to have a device on your network to run the VPN server software. That could be your router or it could be a computer or you can also install it on a Synology NAS if you have one.

Open VPN is free software that you can use as the server.

You can’t use the VPN that you have to access your hassio instance.

There are two sides to a VPN… the server and the client. You (or your friend) are paying to use someone else’s server and you have the client installed on your phone or computer.

For this use, you have to set up the VPN server on your local network and allow people to connect to it from outside your network which can be tricky if you’re not experienced in networks.

Having said that, you may find that your router already has a VPN server built in that just needs setting up. If you have a Synology NAS you might be able to install VPN software on that.

VPNs allow you to connect to a remote network in a way that it treats you as being on that network locally.

There two common uses for this. The one that you have connects to someone else’s network so that you can keep your browsing behaviour private from your ISP or coffee shop or wherever you access the internet from.

The other use is to access a resource in your network from outside that network. In this case, your hassio instance when you’re not at home.

This second use involves you setting up the VPN in your network so that you can connect to it from outside.

Problems with Zigbee2mqtt (self.homeassistant)
 

I run HA in Docker and I have set up Mosquito MQTT and Zigbee2mqtt in other containers.

I can add Zigbee devices into Zigbee2mqtt and they automatically turn up in the MQTT integration. The problem is that they usually don’t have the control entities in HA. This means that I can’t activate switches by clicking on them in HA.

Everything else seems to work. I can turn the devices on and off in Zigbee2mqtt and I can do the same from Node Red (running in another container) with the Zigbee2mqtt plugin.

Has anyone else seen this problem?

I found something in GitHub about it but the comments said that it was fixed in the next version but I have a later version than that but it’s still not working.

All the news on his speech seems to be about HS2 but I think that this is important too.
