If you don’t shy away from python, I just use the requests library most of the time:

homeserver_url = “XXX”

access_token = “XXX”

room_id = “!XXX”

url = f{homeserver_url}/_matrix/client/r0/rooms/{room_id}/send/m.room.message"

headers = {“Authorization”: f"Bearer {access_token}",“Content-Type”: “application/json”,}

data = “msgtype”: “m.text”,“body”: “Question of the day!”,}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(data))

Alternatively I also have a bot I use in NodeRed connected to Home Assistant.

Double Alternatively, I’ve used AppRise successfully within various tools like ChangeDetection to notify me via matrix.

Yes for any game without a publisher. Most indie games use publishers so they can get paid while they’re making the game. It’s really only the games made in a basement on weekends that may see a price improvement.

But the customers don’t see this. You buy a $60 brand new game on epic vs steam vs nintendo vs prime vs anywhere else: the game isn’t more expensive on steam because of their fees. The game is still $60, the publisher and studio make less money. In fact steam doesn’t even set prices, the publisher does. Steam takes 30% to use the platform. Is that too much? Maybe, but this doesn’t hurt the customer, this hurts the people wanting the profits, mostly the game publishers.

Taking this down to 10% won’t drop the price of the game, it reduces the amount of money steam gets. The publisher gets more money. That’s what changes. A few small indie games where the studio is also the publisher might drop the price, but they will be few and far between.

Just search the model#, amazon and others will pop up.

I second the AOC. Currently rocking one and it’s been great for the price. Sure there are a few spots where the backlight bleeds through around the edge a bit, but that’s common at the price point.

Mine’s a 34in ultrawide “frameless” gaming monitor I got for ~$420.

I hadn’t used gitea for long. I just had both running, and then cloned my repos one at a time manually. So long as I had the code, I didn’t really care.

This is what I was using till I switched to forgejo and never got around to setting up one of their runners.

I got my domain through namecheap. So, I just use them, they have a dynamicdns implementation. I setup a namecheapddns docker container that auto updates mine.

What about vscodium?

I download my gog games through heroic (desktop mode) and have no problems with download speed. Typically then I add the game to steam through Heroic.

40gb game in 5hrs? Might want to check your your bases. Reboot/update deck, reboot wifi router/modem. Run speedtests, retry download.

It took me 3 weeks to backup my 2TB of data.

Yep, you’re right. I’m watching my ISP upgrade their cable to docsis 4.0 which will allow for 2g down 1g up. Instead of the garbage 1g down 40mbps up I have now. That upload speed is chaffing.

But I’m looking for a new toy like this because my current router is only 1g.

Is there a 2.5 gigabit version?

It sounds like you’re describing Home Assistant? HA has a ton of integrations into a lot of self-hosted services not just IoT devices.

Any cam with an rtsp stream is fine. Host frigate on your server point it to the cams you can get audio and video and object detection pretty easily. I also recommend taking an extra step and creating a firewall rule to block the cams’ inbound/outbound internet traffic.

Still sounds easier than getting my roborock on valetudo. I had to take the entire thing apart to get to the other side of the mobo to flash the thing. Felt like I needed 3 hands to ground one place while doing a bunch of other things just to get it to flash. My workspace was a mess of screws and tiny robot parts I only half remembered taking out.

In the end it worked and I’m very happy with it. Was sweating for a bit though. It was a $400 vacuum iirc.

Good to know, thanks.

I use Pingvin. You upload a file to it and it generates a link. Has expiration on the link.

You can allow anonymous uploads or not, give friends logins etc.

I have it locked down to just me with a login and I use it to let others download the files.

You’re going to hampered in your choices by the lack of wires. You have an old 2 wire setup. Most nowadays want 3. Some can handle 2 wires, look for thermostats that don’t need a “c wire” or “control wire”.
