Late reply but yeah, Wifi was a nightmare on Proxmox. It was a tiny e-waste SFF pc so I was able to wedge it near the other servers. The cluster is happy.

I had previously run HA on a Raspberry Pi with Z-Wave, Sonoff, and some Hue, years and years ago. After searching for a Zigbee (since that seems to be the current standard and I'm starting over) adaptor that was HA compatible, I saw they offered their own hardware. After 18 months of waiting, I figured it would "just work." Anyway, I reimaged over USB-C and it's working. I'll definitely do a backup before doing my first software update now that I have something to lose.

I had to reimage through serial/USB then the Raspi OS properly downloaded the current image. Thanks for the links getting me in the right neighborhood.

As I recall, when I turned off location tracking my time zone would be wrong. It's frustrating that you lose out when protecting your privacy.

The rabbit hole took me from Airtable to Baserow (which I have up and running but with the built in DB) but now need to make a viewer for the people. So the next step is visualizing the events list and filtering by day and whatever is needed to get useful info from the DB.

Thanks. Some screenshot of a tweet isn't a source, but what you posted was.

Is there a source that doesn't require me log into Twitter?

Upvote for Pebble. It was the best of all time. I could operate the buttons without even looking.

Pebble Time. It was the best ever until the battery swelled. My Fitbit Versa 2 was good until the battery gave out. My latest Fitbit has worse software with less features than the last and I hate it. There are no apps available anymore.

So some news outlets get to protect their precious little articles from the big bad AI, which will probably destroy news as we know it anyway

I was thinking about this. What happens when all the big outlets are having AI write their news?You can't get answers on today's news without feeding the model today's news. Therefore, somebody has to create the data source.

I see a few scenarios:

  • Google scrapes, aggregates, and summarizes to the point that nobody reads the article/sees the ads and the news site goes under. Then Google has nothing to scrape but press releases and government sources. Or...
  • News sites block access to scrapers and charge for it but may be wary of crossing their customers (news aggregators) in their coverage
  • The above creates a tiered system where premium news outlets (AI assisted writing but with human insight) are too expensive for ad supported Google to scrape, so Google gets second tier news from less reliable, more automated sources, or simply makes it themselves. Why not cut out the middle man?
  • Rouge summarizers will still scrape the real news outlets and summarize stories to sell to Google. This will again make paid news a luxury since someone with a subscription will summarize and distribute the main point (okay) or their spin (bad).

I'm failing to see where this will go well. Is there another scenario?

When I heard the Fairphone 4 didn't have any waterproofing I decided to skip this version. My coworker is replacing their Samsung S10 just because the USB port is getting loose but they're an avid boater. For some, water resistance really matters.

I ordered a 870 EVO 4TB since all the time spent on self hosted has been eating up my NAS storage.
