I recently did a range test with the antenna that ships with the P1 Pro and it's not bad but i'd like to get more from the unit if i'm able to. More height isn't really an option at this time so i'm looking for other ways to increase range. The area i live in is farley hilly but the node sits up higher.

Was skyward sword the one where you could only save the game at special totems? One of the games i flat out quit at the first dungeon because you couldn't save where you wanted to like every other one before... why change that?

The first few things that jump out to me are, the smoke isn't coming out of the front stack, instead it's coming out of a second stack thats more in the style of an older steam tractor. The second stack and subsequent second smaller steam engine are where a tender box should be. Worst of all is the illustration of the connecting rods/tie rods, i don't think even a lazy human who'd gone so far as to make the whole image would get that sloppy drawing them so non uniform.

Even if you didn't know much about steam locomotives spending more than 5 second absorbing and processing the contents of the image would tell you the smoke is in the wrong spot and the rods that make it go look bad. That is assuming you've seen a steam locomotive, which i imagine is the bulk of anyone with access to the internet.

 

I'm on a budget and i'm looking to mount a node on a pole in my back yard. I have access to a 3d printer, i have soldering skills, and i'm okay with buying individual components and assembling them myself. I'd like it to look nice but it doesn't have to if that keeps costs down.

The first goal is reliability, i won't be able to easily access it once it's up. The second goal is cheap, i'm on a fairly tight budget. It's possible the device might be in wifi range where it's mounted so that would be a nice bonus.

I believe the go to recommendation now days is a reolink camara and frigate as your nvr os. My understanding is both can operate fully locally when blocked from accessing the internet at the firewall level.

I picked up a steam deck just before the holidays and this was one of the first few games i played on it and across 4-5 weeks i put nearly 50 hours into it. It's so fun/addicting i couldn't put it down.

One of the best parts, for me, is under accessibility settings you can turn off damage and magic drain making you immortal wth endless magic in the combat side of things. As someone who isn't the biggest rogue-like fan this was perfect. As couple stress free dives for resources and advancing the story then right back to my silly little farm for hours.

My understanding is that the steam deck can emulate switch 1 games reliably

I remember your posting this last year. Know that thanks to your actions a small part of him lives on in my memories now. Please continue to share this every year.

This makes total sense. Taxes are for public benefit. Assets offered in place of taxes are now fully public domain, for the benefit of the public.

Amazon hasn't ruined invincible. I'd argue it's better than the comics and each season it's better than the last.

I don't know if this is true but i once read that when classifying lighter-than-air ships they broke them down into two categories. A rigid and B limp and that's where the name blimp comes from.

 

The sensor i have let's you set zones which work width wise but not height. What i would like to do, if able, is mount the sensor waist height or a little higher and block the top and bottom of the sensor so i only have the middle 20° being used. Can this be done with foil or metal?

 

I'm looking for a foss self hosted music service that will let me play music from my computer, my phone, and home assistant all while remembering where i was in the song and where i was in the playlist. Ideally it would be as simple as hitting pause on one and play on the other.

 

I'm looking for a self hosted calendar that supports multiple users, runs in docker, and is easy to integrate into home assistant and a phone app. Does anything like this exist or should i lower my expectations?

 

I'm not sure where else to ask this other than maybe self-hosted, so let me know if I'm in the wrong place. I'm trying to overcome a minor issue with Jellystat. Coming from Plex, I used Tautulli fairly heavily, and one of the features I'd use for various internal monitoring was the IP address tracking. Jellystat has IP address tracking, but unfortunately, due to the structure of my network, it only shows the address of my firewall when the connection is coming from outside my network.

I'm fairly sure this isn't an issue with Plex, since their site does the authentication and the service exits through NAT port forwarding, but with Jellyfin, I use a reverse proxy to route all external traffic as needed. I'm open to additional software or different methods of tracking, but I'm not sure where to start. Any advice would be appreciated.

 

I've seen a couple articles about an android tv alternative and it's got me thinking about a streaming box again. A while back i gave kodi a try and didn't care for the experience. Granted, it was on a pi so expectations were low but it missed the mark for me. This time around i've got a modest nuc with proxmox i was thinking of moving to the living room and standing up a fresh vm of kodi to stream to.

I could just access the files over the network but i'm already running both plex and jellyfin so why not use either for my watch history. All that being said is kodi still my best bet?

Why proxmox? At some point down the road i'd like to get a capture card in the mix to stream games and that feels like the most flexible way to do everything.
