That’s giving them way too much credit tbh, these guys are too far down (technically “up”) the totem pole. They’ve offloaded their critical thinking and public responsibilities to the first company that said the right keywords. And now that they’re entrenched, they defend them because their ego says they must.
It’s fascism via the convenience-stupidity pipeline.
Sounds like you’ve gone down all the paths I can help with lol. Mine streams just fine using Frigate in HAOS and using RTSP. The two way audio doesn’t work quite yet but I also haven’t tried too hard to diagnose since the audio otherwise functions, so I’m assuming it’s just a configuration issue.
I also 3D printed a mount I found on Thingiverse since the ones it came with didn’t angle it far enough for my needs.
I guess I should’ve said “on its own dedicated hardware” too but, still.
I think I remember reading somewhere about a firmware update that was pretty recent (8/2025) specifically for latency issues, you might want to check that out if you’ve had it awhile.
It’s probably just scrolling speed or debounce or something silly like that lol. Like moving from Android to iOS. I’d bet if you used FF for a couple days you wouldn’t even notice it anymore without something to compare it to.
Have you thought about moving your HA off your server and onto a miniPC? I know you weren’t really looking for advice but that seems like the move to me tbh, doesn’t take long to migrate and it might clear up a lot of headaches.
No… it’s like picking up those apples, shipping them across the country, and then charging customers a delivery fee. Which is perfectly reasonable because time and fuel cost money.
Plex helps you (and others) stream from your library pretty brainlessly. Sure there are other options, but all of them are more complicated.
How do you think used cars exist if there aren’t people that buy new ones?
And… owning a home? Huh?
Sorry, I don’t mean to accuse you of anything. I should’ve made it more clear that most people just won’t try new things no matter how easy you make it for them. They will literally turn their brain off if it’s outside of their comfort zone no matter if it’s just the tiniest of steps.
Your mistake was telling them something scary and leaving, the very first pixel out of place and they gave up. People don’t want you to give them projects, they want you to fix their problems.
If it’s a system you’re sure of the use case then set it up to be a Windows clone like you planned and tell them you found a (locked down and lightweight) long service life distro based on Windows 8 or something. Yes, it’s a lie. Nobody will care as long as it works generally like they’re used to, I promise. But if you have to explain caveats to their normal workflow like you’re giving a tutorial then you might as well not bother.
We really need to stop throwing away useful terms and concepts because their progenitors don’t turn out to be role models. Knowledge doesn’t always come from perfect sources. “Tragedy of the Commons” has no basis in race as a concept as I understand it, I don’t see why the guy who coined the term being a racist POS means I should take a moral stance on it.
… but, you know, fuck that guy.
There are 4 models of minivan being sold currently. Anyone trying to fit 3 car seats or 7 people into a vehicle and looking for a new car pretty much gets those 4 options and that’s it.
Generally you’re right but Logic 101 and Obi wan Kenobi should’ve taught us by now that absolute statements like yours are bogus.
Exactly. Can’t pull blood from a stone.
Luigi had ‘em signing off on thousands of medical procedures they never would have otherwise because they were literally scared for their lives.
I guarantee you any one of the companies involved would’ve immediately traded that guy’s life for 200mil, and technically had been for years.
A dozen or so more incidents like this and maybe they’ll start to ken why things like unions and protestors were ultimately the workers being polite.
In addition to the curtain being torn away “cultural events” like GoT would require people to feel connected and everyone in charge seems to be doing their level best to tear us all apart.
I’ve switched to a lot of foreign media tbh. Irish television is killing it right now for example.
That sucks bro, sorry they did that lol.
If it’s direct then why the 10GB limit?
… and exactly 2 weeks later modders will have figured out how to get their hands on the yummy free unlimited data inside it.
Link was dead for me as soon as I tried it.
Same, but don’t buy Xero, they’re trash. Basically flip-flops with a fabric covering imo. And the ones that have survived 2yrs had their rubber harden up like decades old tires.
I’ve been trying “Rutsu” out based on an ad recommendation (yeah yeah, sue me). Time will tell for sure but they’re definitely made better at least.
