Federal police are still investigating whether the aircraft was involved in drug trafficking

Um....

And I genuinely hope it stays that way for years more to come. Cheers.

Oracle Cloud will also delete your shit for the price of admission.

Caveat emptor, hey?

So, uh...

Digital Ocean Is pretty inexpensive at US$7 monthly for 1 vCPU/1GB RAM with 1TB transfer. Decent platform. US-based, alas.

The FAA/ICAO use a similar system to name aerial navigation and fixed GPS waypoints. It addresses the challenge of communicating identifiers of unique nodes in a vast network using VHF communications.

I have some logic around notifications and a few actions. My spouse and I both grew up in houses with heat, but no AC, so I've programmed HA to send notifications to our phones if the setpoint on our Ecobee thermostat is warmer than the outside temperature in Cooling mode, and cooler than the outside temp in Heating mode. Outdoor temps are a blend of three weather service feed "feels like" observations and two outdoor temperate/humidity sensors.

The outdoor sensors are a ZigBee sensor, and some area sensors I snoop a few times an hour with an RTL-SDR radio single via MQTT bus. I have a helper that blends the weather service and local obs to compare with the thermostat. It bothers us every 2 hours to open some windows.

We both also have a bad habit of not closing the back door all the way, so the Assistant bugs us if a door or window is open for more than 10 minutes and the outdoor temperature is below the heating setpoint, or above the cooling setpoint. It turns off the HVAC a few minutes later if the condition persists and sends a snarky notification about not being made of enough money to fix climate change. However, it will turn the heat back on to 60F if the house falls below 58F and send notifications every hour til the condition is addressed.

Otherwise the ecobee does a fair job adjusting itself to maintain a desired inside temp on its own.

You've solved it by now but this Jellyfin doc article was helpful for me, beginning with the section Naming.

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies/

There at similar guides for TV Shows, Music, Books and other mixed media.

There are also guides for "stacking" multi-segment media titles, for example Lord of the Rings movies which come on several discs.

Jellyfin can be a bit opinionated about detecting bad metadata. The override tags in the media data filename or folder name can help clean that up. In fact, I've started hard-coding those [tmdbid=...] tags in my encoding workflow because I'm just so damned tired of fighting with the metadata feature.

Hope it works form you,.too.

I like to imagine Firebloom adds a spicy, smoky flavor.

Good move. I've driven my Sengled E11-N1EA bulbs for years now over ZigBee with an old HubZ HUSBZB-1. Works fine, no regrets. Didn't even know those bulbs were cloud attached.

This is so meta it hurts.

Yeah, I know.

Aurora is immutable, I fucked up. Oops.

Edit: unsubscribed. My life will be better.

 
 
 

She whispered, "they're right behind you."

 

A cargo ship with links to Russia packed with explosive fertiliser is floating off the Kent coast after being denied entry at other ports over safety fears.

Ruby, a Maltese-flagged cargo ship carrying 20,000 tonnes of ammonium nitrate fertiliser from a port in Russia, was ordered out of Tromso in Norway and turned away from Danish waters.

More alleged shenanigans with this craft drifting around the North Sea, ostensibly enroute to the Canaries.

 

Now that I think about it, it was probably before the pandemic. 🤔

 

ethical edit: For a toss-off gag that even I thought was a bit sketch, I'm learning a lot about this situation and I appreciate it
