My smartwatch broke and I'm heartbroken
  • I went through 2 Skagen (a div of fossil) hybrids before I had to give up on them. They redesigned the app to be full of ads, and then took away some of the features available on the face. They just couldn't fucking resist.

    Moved on to Garmin OLED hybrid. The build quality is miles better. I miss the daylight readability of the e-ink and 2 week battery, but I'd recommend them to anyone. Battery lasts 3 or 4 days and it's much lighter weight.

  • Big Penny!
  • We've got one of those in my town. The height is only 10' 8", and the road makes a V going under the tracks. Long wheelbase trucks might make it through until the front wheels start going up the hill on the other side.

  • travel routers

    So I've seen the TP-Link and GL.inet travel routers, and it looks like some of the GLs are/were built to run wrt firmwares. Stock TP firmwares have been pretty full features in my experience. I really want USB-C power. The GL wireguard support looks useful too, but it looks like their newer stuff is proprietary? Another want, not need, is 5 GHz band.

    Does anyone have a favorite model or another board that can be flashed?

    Hass templating compound logical operators

    I'm working in the template editor, and if I use the 'and' operator, an entity disappears. I finally found/guessed a working combination but I can't find any examples to see the right combo of operators and parenthesis. HA tells you to look at jinja docs, jinja literally says "There is not an awful lot to talk about here"

    any template guru out there know the secret sauce?

    Caddy subdomain reverse proxy performance

    I'd asked about using a VPS to get better routing to my homelab in this post: https://lemmy.world/post/1424540

    I've narrowed down my problem- if i use a subdomain in my caddyfile, performance is 1/3 or worse compared to just the root.

    example.com {reverse_proxy 192.168.1.57}

    will saturate my gigabit lan connection at 980ish. On a 5gUW connection i get my advertised 50 mbit or more

    librespeed.example.com {reverse_proxy 192.168.1.57}

    I get 220-250 megabits on my internal lan. The same 5gUW connection will only get 7 or 8 mbit.

    It's strange to me that everything seems to work just fine, but it's just slow. Anyone got any ideas?

    improving homelab upload performance- VPS proxy?

    I've got 1000/50 service from a mid-size ISP. It's pretty consistent- any time I run a speed test from home, it will hit those numbers. I have an opnsense plugin checking twice a day.

    Performance from my self-hosted services to the internet, however, is very inconsistent. Sometimes I get the full 50, sometimes it will only hit 5 Mbit/s.

    Is it possible a VPS proxy could provide less congested routes? Is there a better way to troubleshoot the bottleneck? When i notice a slowdown, usually watching a clip on frigate, I'll use a public speedtest to check my field connection. If it's over 50 down, I'll check librespeed on my server. If frigate or plex is fast, librespeed will be too. If I've noticed a problem, librespeed has always agreed.

    My host machine is a 5700g w/ 64 gigs of ram, X520 nic to an S33 modem, so I don't think it's a hardware bottleneck.
