16 days agoI think your original argument just wasn’t fully fleshed out. Seems you don’t like the guy for a lot more reason than the one you gave, which might be legitimate.

I’m not that familiar, tbh.
I was thinking QtPie, who is a much nicer person.
Pretty sure PewDiePie is an ass, but “he said a racial slur once ten years ago” isn’t a great argument against anyone, generally.
You’re going to equate a word with being a Nazi and rape? Using a racial slur is literally a small subset of being a Nazi.
If you think calling people Jews was the big issue with the Nazis, well…

Reolink has been decent, only running one camera. It is missing the type of stream I’d prefer*, but RTSP works fine.
Does Frigate prefer OVSP or something? I don’t remember all the details off the top of my head.
Don’t take this too seriously, but Reolink for cheap, Ubiqiti if you wanna spend is where I’d start researching.

Wouldn’t be a bad transition. Outside of current HA people, afaik there isn’t a lot of zigbee around. Most people do have a Thread Border Router now. You can get a Skyconnect/ZBT-1 for HA if you don’t want other options like Google Hub.
Yes to horseshoe, but for others you may just need to refresh or clear your browser cache.
It’s obnoxiously difficult to change the color on a gauge, say for battery charging vs discharging, or just generally to show direction of the gauge. You’d have to create a new, custom card.
Also so many of the cards in HACS are broken. It’s not the best experience.
Besides that, Thread is pretty low-bandwidth and low-noise. It’s designed to sip battery life from devices.
2.4Ghz just allows it to be built into tons of devices without an extra chip. Every Google Hub, Alexa, or Apple hub supports it.
Amazes me that they excluded the shades from Matter. I would have very seriously considered them otherwise.
I’m watching for these new Matter switches from GE that haven’t been released yet.
Not all CYNC bulbs are Matter. Do they have a QR code and an 11 digit code printed on them?
GE Cync had some wall switches at the recent CES for around $25. I think they’re Matter over Thread, which is my preferred tech. And I’ve had good luck with the CYNC Matter bulbs.
I expect I’ll pick up a couple of those when they’re out.
You really want Matter over Thread* when you can. Thread is the low power 2.4Ghz protocol, and is my bet for future tech. Matter makes it compatible with any ecosystem. (Functionality may be limited compared to the vendor app.)
But I already have some Z-Wave in my walls, so it’s not completely out of the question.
The vendors, of course, have been slow to roll out actually open tech. I did just get the Aqara U300 door lock, which at least can unlock through Matter.
2·8 months agodo not cost anywhere near 30%
You missed some context. Maybe you had issues with the sentence structure. My bad.
Nobody wants to pay for bandwidth? Nobody wants to have to pay for secure management of credentials and billing? :O
They absolutely would if it didn’t mean getting deprioritized on Steam. Those things aren’t that difficult or expensive these days. I could have secure management of credentials and billing up in a weekend if I needed it (correctly), and I’m a single developer.
Steam is better than Microsoft, Apple, Google and Tencent. Using monopoly power to maintain the 30% standard is still a problem.
At least for the first year.
