More likely is that these companies will just update their models to identify these vehicles once again. Furthermore, patterns like this make the car really stand out from the crowd which is a terrible way to disguise yourself.

Seems like a good way to get stopped by police and have your car impounded.

Dude's probably on his way to the ATM machine

So don't tell them then. Their notice to you covers both of you.

Actually nature developed most of the product and as a card carrying member of nature, I expect to see my royalties check in the mail soon.

Unless your home internet has multi-gigabit upload, you'll never be able to compete with seedbox users when new uploads drop and everyone is downloading them at the same time. Your seedbox can upload at 10x-100x the rate my home internet can which is why seedbox users capture all the seeding credit on new uploads. Once a file has been out a day or two, the only people downloading are new users or people who aren't using automation tools like sonarr/radarr which are few and far between.

The tradeoff here is that your seedbox storage capacity several orders of magnitude lower than my 50TB home server, so I can keep these files seeding forever much like the parable about the tortoise and the hare (though without the deeper meaning).

Its likely because your VPN is disconnecting and qbit isnt getting restarted when it happens so it just sits there without being able to connect. Adding deunhealth to your stack and having it monitor qbit can help

6 months x 0 upload is still zero upload. I permaseed most things but since I don't use a seedbox, I miss out on a lot of upload credit on new files since my home internet connection can't compete with a seedbox's upload credit. Luckily most trackers account for this and give you bonuses based on seed time so it doesnt really matter and having a mix of fast but short-lived seeders along with slower but long term seeders helps everyone.

I'm not sure I like your attitude, so I'm starting my own thread down below and everyone else is welcome to join me there.

When you refinance you're 'paying off' your old loan and starting a new one, so there's nothing they can do to stop you.

but the conclusion that a 0.25% rate reduction could pay off in less than a year is overly optimistic for most any borrower in the US mortgage market

As is the "saving hundreds of thousands of dollars" part unless your mortgage is millions of dollars.

Of course, but that isn't going to drive consumer demand in a good direction and studios are already shutting down left and right.

They don't need to switch to a streaming model in order to charge subscription fees, and streaming isn't going to bring any benefit to the player (and comes with huge drawbacks if, for example, you have shitty internet speeds or data caps), so again I'll ask why? It's just adding tons of unnecessary bandwidth usage over the current model but offers no benefit that I can see to anyone involved.

 

I'm looking to add Thread/Matter to my existing setup (Pi4 running HA, Sonoff Zigbee controller/Zigbee2MQTT, Zooz Z-wave controller) in order to try out Ikea's new Matter switches. I have been doing a little bit of reading on Thread and Matter but I'm not sure which controller/hub would be best with my current setup.

It appears that a lot of these hubs include Zigbee and wifi radios, so would that interfere with my current Zigbee controller/network and/or wifi network (Pi is right next to my Wifi router)?

Secondly, is there a feature difference between different controllers? I saw the Aqara M100 as an inexpensive option, but I want to be sure it fully supports the feature of the BILRESA switches as I'd like to use the scroll wheels to control the brightness of my lights. Other options I saw were the Google Nest and Apple 4KTV, but I'd rather not use a Google product and don't have any Apple products in the house. I don't have a hard budget, but would of course prefer not to spend money that isn't necessary

 

I thought this was an impressive attempt at trolling but apparently this guy is just off his rocker.

I currently have frigate running on my Proxmox server in an LXC running Portainer and it has recently quit detecting anything and sending out notifications when someone walks up to my house.

I sat down to do some troubleshooting last night and first discovered in the logs that it wasn't detecting my Coral TPU any longer but after reseating the USB cable and rebooting the container that issue is gone. Now everything 'appears' to be working properly but it still won't detect anything and I'm at a loss on how to proceed.

Checking the logs, no errors are displayed. I can see all my camera feeds on the main view. The config hasn't changed. My masks are still in place. I dont recall the exact names, but the Settings>'Status' (with the bar graphs) window shows the Coral TPU as connected and used and Settings>Debug windows shows red boxes around moving objects, but I don't see any detection events, no short clips, or any other indicator that it's working.

Edit: well this is stupid but it was a frigate update that caused the issue. With 16.0, you have to add "enabled: true" under "detect" for each camera to get object detection. I hadn't updated it for some time and didn't read the release notes.

 
 

I've got several Amcrest cameras connected through Frigate (running standalone) to HA but I'm not sure how to properly setup the camera card so that the 'thumbnail' shown on the dashboard cards refreshes every so often.

Previously I had them connected directly to HA via the Dahua integration and set the camera streams as both the thumbnail image and as what's displayed when you click the card and this all worked fairly well (the thumbnail would refresh every few minutes) but now after switching to Frigate, the thumbnails have remained static since the day it was initially set up and never refresh and I'm not sure how to fix this.

The cameras are all PoE and connected to an Amcrest NVR which does the main recording while Frigate just sees the substream and uses it for object detection and remote viewing through HA. Clicking the camera cards allows me to view the stream but for whatever reason the thumbnails never refresh.

 

I'm migrating from lemm.ee and just created an account here but for some reason I'm seeing only a handful to zero comments on sh.itjust.works posts even when they show hundreds of comments.

I'm vaguely familiar with similar federation issues where you might not see old comments if you're the first person to subscribe to a community on a different instance, but I don't understand why I can't see comments on posts from what is now my native instance.

Can anyone clarify what's going on?
