    Yeah, my experience with Aqara has been like that: flawless out of the box, pairs quickly with no issues, reports state correctly, all good. Then after a random while (at least a few hours, but within a day) they just drop off the network never to be seen again until I re-pair them.

    I even got an Aqara smart plug just to act as a router and pair the Aqara stuff through it, it was better but this time it dropped off after a few weeks. Might’ve been the battery though, it was a temperature sensor in -20°C.


  • Running a bunch of services here on a i3 PC I built for my wife back in 2010. I’ve since upgraded the RAM to 16GB, added as many hard drives as there are SATA ports on the mobo, re-bedded the heatsink, etc.

    It’s pretty much always ran on Debian, but all services are on Docker these days so the base distro doesn’t matter as much as it used to.

    I’d like to get a good backup solution going for it so I can actually use it for important data, but realistically I’m probably just going to replace it with a NAS at some point.




  • I’m no Python expert either and yeah, from an outsider’s perspective it seems needlessly confusing. easy_install that’s never been easy, pip that should absolutely be put on a Performance Improvement Plan, and now this venv nonsense.

    You can criticize javascript’s ridiculous dependencies all you want (left-pad?), but one thing that they absolutely got right is how to manage them. Everything’s in node_modules and that’s it. Yeah, you might get eleven copies of left-pad on your system, but you know what you NEVER get? Version conflicts between projects you’re working on.





  • Owner of 2 pinecils here, there are buttons and a display that shows the current temperature and other stuff. I only just learned that there’s an app, it works more than fine on its own, out of the box.

    I got that specific iron because I needed to power it from 12v, and it works very well on the USB PD power supply I already have for my laptop.








  • I fail to see how that’s relevant here. The guy isn’t a US national and wasn’t in the US when he committed his alleged “crime”.

    He has absolutely no duty towards the US and is 100% free to associate with whoever he wants, and yes, even Russia.

    US has no standing whatsoever in this situation, and it’s a travesty of international law that Sweden and the UK even entertained the idea of extraditing him. The response should’ve been “go sue the American who actually committed that crime on American soil. Oh wait, you’ve already convicted her, and she’s already out after serving her sentence? WTF are you going on about then?”
