Israel is sowing the seeds of revenge in the Palestinian population.

The list of desperate persons that don’t have anything to lose anymore is growing rapidly

If you make a backup with a tool like Borg that creates encrypted archives, then using AWS S3 glacier is the cheapest.

What’s bad about it: if you ever need those files again, it’s going to be VERY expensive to download them again, so it has to be treated as the “what if a nuke hits my city and all the local and off-site backups are vaporized” solution

Also: it’s not recommended to directly host plain files, they need to be in an archive format with big chunks, as the API calls that are used to list them during sync are counted in a very expensive way

Technically, yes, but I’m a bit lazy. If I can overengineer a workaround…

Yes my cylinder isn’t compatible, it won’t allow inserting a key from the other side. But I saw they sell a replacement one for 100 euro

Not being internet connected isn’t the end of the world, but that hidden expensive in-app purchase is really scammy because you would only notice that after you bought the device, after installation and probably even after the return window. All YouTube reviewers got the pro model, which doesn’t have this artificial limitation. If I didn’t watch that video, I would noticed that after years (I don’t have enough matter/thread devices to justify the purchase of a hub yet)

And also the door opening sensor isn’t included in the box but of course YouTube reviewers are showing it as part of the kit because they got all included. And the product page doesn’t specify that explicitly.

Searched the user manual in PDF to learn more about the product, it’s 4 sentences that explain absolutely nothing

So in the end I wanted the base model over the pro because for me having 4 AAs instead of a “proprietary” battery pack (4 AAs in a custom plastic shell) is much better and giving direct full internet access to the door lock via WiFi is too scary… but between the missing opening sensor, the IAP, the build quality, I think I will choose another one

Nice this looks compatibile, except for the open sensor, my door has an ultra thick frame and it’s only possible to install it at 12 cm, while the guide says 4 cm max. Does it really need it?

Thanks for the link, in that thread I found two promising products, Nuki and tedee.

One is small and stylish but uses a tiny expensive single use battery, the other is plasticly and bulky but uses 4 standard AAs

I’ll check specs carefully to see if they have enough torque

Edit: the 190 euro Nuki lock is advertised as “matter/thread compatible” but you need to pay a 50 euro in-app purchase in order to enable it. This is not stated anywhere, including the user manual, website and support faq. I discovered that from a YouTube review

There are so many burglars here that this kind of door is the standard in any apartment

When you close it, it’s not possible* to open it again from outside

* = only the triangular piece engages, so a professional can unlock it from outside by using a thin sheet of steel

I thought I had keys in my pocket, instead it was a different bunch. The keys were inserted in the socket from the inside, it doesn’t allow to insert the key from the other side, so I couldn’t use the backup pair that I keep in a separate location

Ah maybe I was missing the ./ , it said garage not found on path (on mobile, can’t try)

I set garage via docker and it was not impossibly hard.

Main problem is that there isn’t an admin panel and you can’t login to the docker container via docker exec, so you have to write some python (or other language of your choice) to send requests to the API port to:

1. Set the layout of your server
2. Create an user
3. Create a bucket
4. Assign that bucket to your user

Technically, it still is illegal to sell electronics without CE certification

Although a headline like “3 cubic meters of worthless famiclones have been seized” isn’t as strong

a figure which includes the value of the consoles and hundreds of licenses for the pirated programs.

So it’s just 12k consoles with 4000 pirated ROMs inside

Actual value is €300k, not 50 millions

Not having a certification doesn’t mean it’s not compliant.

It’s probably compliant, but they didn’t want to pay €50k to get it certified

With paid certificates you can target ancient and unsupported operating systems like windows XP and android 2, letsencrypt is relatively recent and it’s not present in the root certificates of those systems

Technically, if it wasn’t for the unofficial server component, you had to pay for a subscription even if you self host

Have no diplomatic or economic ties with Venezuela

What can be done more? They are already under embargo, the economy is fucked, the average wage is almost a tenth of what people get in neighboring countries and 20% of the population fled the country

Maduro is going to “win” elections until he dies, he can do whatever he wants. He even moved Christmas to October 1st this year, to show the population that he has absolute power

They just hate the fact that there’s a group of foreigners enjoy their free time.

Start to play soccer, you’ll see how their brain will short circuit because they can’t ban their favorite sport

I made something crude with python and flask, but it’s only to print address labels, always the same settings (paper size and so on)

So i just put a textbox, press the button and it prints there.

When printing generic stuff, you would need to set paper type, paper size, color or BW, if have both sides printed, if printing from a specific tray, then some kind of user authentication (i am lazy and i didn’t care about privacy so i used cloudflare access), so the complexity becomes much bigger.

Before making my crude script I searched long time for a free or cheap solution, but I didn’t find. If you find, let me know

ah, good to know
