If you use Reolink wifi cams via the Frigate integration in homeassistant, you may be used to seeing tons of “ffmpeg has crashed unexpectedly” in your frigate logs. I have 3 older reolink wifi cams in frigate (510WA, 511WA) which most in the community seems to advise against and indeed since I’ve been running frigate,...
Note - another helpful tip for 510WA cams: in this github listing: Reolink Firmware Archive, you can find a link to version 3.1.0.1387 which I have been running for a week, this version is much newer than the latest official release (.764), it adds two useful new options in t he Stream configuration section (which is only accessible via the Web interface of the cam),
I just checked that link and YES, actually it is, thanks for pointing it out. The docs must have been updated for v0.13, they added the ffmpeg prefix to the go2rtc stance, this wasn’t there before. I found this originally in a github bug discussion with the frigate dev, where he suggested the person having issues to try this out and see what happens. There was no follow up after that suggestion though.
Going through and hiding all of my entities. Painful process but making it easier to use in the future. @homeassistant is looking better and better each day. #HomeAutomation
what is the point of doing that? I just checked and I have hundreds of entities, it would take a huge amount of time to see which ones to keep visible / which ones are used in automations or visualization etc. What is the harm of just leaving them exposed?
Hi everyone, looking to make the switch from windows. I’m reasonably technically apt but not a programmer by any means. I’ve been doing some homework on which distro I would like to use and pop_os kinda feels like the right direction. I’m running an Nvidia 3060TI on a Ryzen 5600 chip set on an Asus tuf motherboard. Any...
I am no programmer either, mainly a technical-oriented user, and I made the switch to a linux-only desktop almost 20 years ago. I tried several distros but I keep coming back to ubuntu (in vanilla gnome mode), with it’s closeness to debian and huge library of apps, with it’s massive userbase you get a lot of online community support, and it’s really polished these days. For the last 5-6 years or so I’ve been using “LTS” releases, doing major updates every two years, I found that to be a very reasonable cadence and it gives you great environment stability. The only significant downside I found these days is ubuntu’s insistence in using their (proprietary?) snap desktop container app ecosystem, I personally much prefer flatpaks, and actually I use flatpaks extensively on my ubuntu desktop for SW that needs frequent updating (darktable, logseq, etc)
With all its faults, great fútbol still mesmerizes. So many of us look forward with passion to the fantastic ritual of the World Cup every four years. The best competition tournament in the world by a long shot.

Generally it’s the mobo chipset that determines which CPUs are compatible. Often the chipsets are compatible with two generations of CPUs, that was the case with H6xx from intel, i got one with an alderlake cpu amd could upgrade it a year and a half later with rocketlake. The mobo OEM needs to support this in their uefi/bios
Hi everyone. I recently bought a Breville Bambino. It’s my first espresso machine, and I’m quite happy with it. I love the fact that it has a thermoblock which means that I don’t have to wait for the water to turn on before I can enjoy my coffee. I’ve been able to pull some good shots with it, but the exact same...
Baratza Vario W - daily use for the last 8 years or so and going strong. Zero ground coffee mess, decently accurate and consistent (grinds by weight), looks nice. Mine only needed one burr adjustment in the 5 year mark (it comes with tool and the instructions).

I concur with the first comment, RPi is not well suited for a media server, where you need solid storage and good performance for transcoding on the fly. However, RPis are fantastic media players
I'been using @logseq for a couple of weeks. In the beginning it was kind of unusual. Then, I got used to it and now I feel myself comfortable. I love notetaking again.
Similarly here. After years and years using the likes of Zim and Joplin, I discovered logseq a few weeks back… and there is no going back! I do hope they will make the app more performant over time but not really a deal breaker for me
With the release of 2023.8 I noticed there is built-in shopping list functionality in HA. Up to now at home we have been using Alexa’s shopping list (we have an old echo in the kitchen so it’s been practical). My question: is there a way to somehow have the Echo’s/alexa’s shopping list feature to manage HA’s shopping...
Thanks all for the tips on this. I will explore the IFTTT + todoist route that seems to be the only current option to get the Alexa/echo shopping list integrated with HA’s

This brings back so many memories! My first distro some 25 years ago now! Something to tell my kids about. I remember it took me a couple of days to get audio to work on my first install! And I still loved it. So much water has passed under the bridge. Now 100% of the production envirnoment at work is Linux-based and so are the devices at the other end of the wire/airlink. And so are our phones, home servers and on and on. Linux skills have had the highest return
With 2-bedroom rentals in the 3k+/mth range and 3-4br houses in the 5-6k/mth range, I wonder what level of family income is needed (specially to afford renting a house) and what kinds of professions/jobs are the ones that can allow you, in Toronto, to achieve that.
Like most people, I entered COVID as a normal hobby geek with a Linux server I played around with and a healthy hardware habit with a side of home automation and DD-WRT.

Small fanless HTPC on a six year old Apollo lake mini ITX mobo. Looking forward to upgrading this one soon with one of the recently announced alderlake N100 fanless mini itx mobos.
Right now I’m using an LG CX as my monitor and it happens to come with nice speakers (in that a TV will have the best speakers on the desk given no other options)… I’ve never had monitor speakers, so I was wondering – in this scenario, is it worth it to get a PreSonus Eris?
I use LS50W2s for my main media center and TV since two years ago and am very happy with the result. Shortest path to high quality audio. I understand there are several other options these days
