Last Notes npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I tried listing it there. Can you see it? npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I'd also accept #Bitcoin or #Monaro if anyone wants to buy direct instead of going through the store. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Independence day is almost here in the USA, which seems like a great excuse to have a 10% off sale. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Holy crap. I just remembered that I set up this coinos thing a while back and I just logged in and there's like $7 in the account! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker You have the cybertruck, now get the only #OpenSource #thermostat to match! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker From an academic paper on #privacy in #IoT #tech: npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I didn't get to build any hardware today. Life interrupted. 😅 npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker My order of components arrived! It's like Xmas in... (checks calendar) May! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I've managed to get some Pi Zero 2 W boards in stock, but if you want to use the one you already have, I can ship you one without a pi. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker This is why I would never knowingly buy an appliance that required me to connect it to the internet. There is every expectation that it is horribly insecure, and time and time again this turns out to be the case. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Placed another order for components. Looking forward to getting #unstoppable smart thermostats into people's homes. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I'm going to be restocking on parts soon. I batch up orders to save on shipping and I do it by vendor to try to spread out my costs. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Happy #EarthDay npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I think I may have found the pogo pin I have been looking for. This is super exciting because it will allow me to build #HestiaPi #thermostats with a #RaspberryPi Zero 2 W AND still have a functional reset button on the side. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I'm doing my taxes and I found that I'm only about $115 in the hole over the past 3 years for my efforts to make #HestiaPi #thermostats available to people! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Haven't had any #HestiaPi orders for a while. If anyone is ready to ditch their #Google #Nest and go completely open source, I'd be happy go help! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Sure, I'd be willing to give it a try! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Another Monday, another day of surfing the bug tracker for the #Terraform provider for #Proxmox. I'm short on time today, so I can't test one thing that I'd like to test, but still trying to make it clear which issues will be fixed in the upcoming version 3.0 release and what workarounds exist to get people by until the new release drops. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker For anyone who is just now discovering me, hello 👋. I build, maintain and sell #OpenSource #thermostats. They can be #WiFi controlled & respect your #privacy. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Yes, the hardware does, but the software image we produce is based on OpenHAB. If someone made an image based on HomeAssistant that had feature parity, it would be a great alternative and might even end up being the main image at some point. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker #OpenSource is the solution to companies disrespecting you (their customers). npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker OMG, Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W's are available in quantities of more than just one! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Thanks, but I'm sticking to open source apps. I do not trust the others. Even if they aren't malicious, and never get hacked by anyone who is malicious, they could just go under and then the app will stop installing on new phones. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker 🤔 I can't say I've ever tried that... npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker #Selfhosting people who use #Proxmox, I'm a contributor to the terraform provider for proxmox and I need your help. Please boost. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker How can I connect with people who would be interested in a privacy respecting smart thermostat? Where should I go? What do you think? npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Hey, I'm late to the party, but I wanted to let you know that I am also stepping to the plate and offering help with an #Proxmox or #sysadmin stuff that you have questions about. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I also want to talk to the hardcore #SelfHosting people out there. The ones who have a VM server and like 20 different VMs all running various services. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I'm trying to change this "self-hosting is hard" claim (and often reality). I believe part of it is that people only use the term "self-hosted" when something is also conplex and difficult to set up. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I'd be happy to get you a smart thermostat that doesn't snitch on you, is open source (hardware + software), and isn't going to be sunset like those turds over there at #Google. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Both the new clicky models worked fine in the case. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker https://image.nostr.build/0657010c8d714bde77ba4958f281e3176e588e9130efec491797f5825c210801.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1312x984&alt=Four+surface+mount+LEDs+sit+on+a+PCB+with+unmelted+solder+paste+holding+them+in+place.&blurhash=%23MG8%3Djf5M%7CbHD*a%24xYt7Rj%7EURka%7Dayf7WBt7WBj%5BMdRjt6jZxtoeM%7Cj%5BWB%3D%7Bt7Rjofj%3FjtWCWBj%5BROWBt7axxtayWDWCj%5B%250WCa%7Dj%5Bt7ayWAWBof%3FFayM%7CofM%7CWCxsfPj%5B&x=fd062b2e45fb02d23de3e4f001a8058209f99c2fc4374c2ab24efcb8f0d3006a npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Today I built a couple of the experimental "clicky" versions of the #HestiaPi Touch. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker My goal for 2024 is to get 12 people to switch to an open source thermostat! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I haven't used web based email in a decade. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Well, on a lighter note, the fan is likely the cheapest part to replace. 🤷♂️ npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker What do you think? Should open source project developers get paid? If do, what fo you propose to change the fact that 99% of people who get value from the project but fo not contribute value back to the project? npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I have a lot in common with the lead developer of the #ZeroPhone. Our commitment to #OpenSource #Hardware, long term support, desire for sustainability, supporting upstream projects, and tolerating imperfect openness in some components for now until more options are available later. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker No ASICS, just a raspberry pi for making the decisions, providing the web interface, etc. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Looks like a neat system. I only make open source hardware and software, but it's cool to see people who make videos getting a platform of their own. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Now that I am set up to recieve zaps, I feel like I can post a picture of this... npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I am trying to get a #bitcoin #lightning #wallet so I can do the #zaps thing. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker No, I saw support telling someone they couldn't connect their wallet software until some week long upgrade was done. Sounded to sus for me. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Went to sign up for lnbits, but they say it's beta and should only be used for testing. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I'm working on making the #HestiaPi case have stand offs for the PCB. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Zeus does not appear in FDroid, but I can check out the APK from their website npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Does anyone know where I can get a lightning wallet provider that doesn't require a closed source app? I've given up on Strike. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker OMG, it was right there all along! I think my brain must have just glazed over it as if it were security settings. Thank you! You have made my Nostr experience so much better. 🥲 npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Does Amethyst have this somewhere? Because it'd be great to filter out some things! npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Now I'm unable to reproduce the issue. 😠 Same hardware, down to the exact SD card. Same software, bit for bit. Same process of turning it on, rebooting, hard powering down... npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker OK, I've rebooted this thing at least 4 times in a row and it is working perfectly. For these recent tests, I've been connecting to the #HestiaPi's WiFi acess point and gracefully rebooting the device. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Oh, the plot thickens! My fast SD card booted fine the first time (and through the normal series of reboots), but then ran into this "external loading" problem again. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Yesterday I was able to reproduce and resolve an issue someone was having with their home built #HestiaPi. It got stuck on the loading screen because their SD card was too slow. Using a fast, name brand SD card fixed it. Same Pi Zero, same imsge file being flashed, different results. Amazing. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I am on a quest to find the perfect sized bolts for the #HestiaPi. I just ordered $45 worth of hardware from McMasterCarr. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker There is HomeButtons, which is only MQTT, but if you are cool with just one transport, it seems perfect. https://github.com/nplan/HomeButtons npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Hi. 👋 I make open hardware. Where is everyone else at? npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Cool. It looks pretty modular, so I'm guessing getting is running smoothly on a stock #HestiaPi should just be a matter of changing the UI to fit on a rectangular screen instead of a round one, yeah? npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I am going to experiment with some pads on the case to lift the PCB up by a specific amount. Right now the length of the tails from the headers is what determines the PCB height. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker @npub1lh2…a9nk If you still have a #HestiaPi and are still working on a faster, more efficient image for it, I'd be interested in learning more about where you are in the project and probably helping with coding. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Should I print this #bitcoin sign next? npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I am so excited! I finally saved up enough money to buy a #3Dprinter. I just printed the backplate for a #HestiaPi case. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker It lets me list the items I am selling, post pictures, descriptions, track orders, chat with buyers who have questions, allow buyers to see my other products, take credit cards, etc. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker You #nostr people seem to be into #bitcoin, does anyone know if there is something like #Tindie that allows me to accept bitcoin? npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I like what you say about #sovereignty. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I suspect this is not going to be a popular reply, but... npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Oh, that wow would be an interesting setup! I'd be happy to help. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I very much appreciate you raising awareness on this. I donate hundreds of hours a year to open source projects and sometimes question whether it is worth the effort. npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker I feel like I must be doing something wrong on here. I am not seeing a single post in my timeline in Amethyst except my own toot. When I click on that, I can see replies. And I can see replies on the bell screen. I am connected to 13 relays... npub1ydhmq6k7zshd5chdfrmpqpy44jyn02z7amw98knaqascw2flnpzq5serpq Hestia Hacker Hey, I'm new to #nostr and looking to connect with people who are into #OpenSource, #decentralization, and maybe #IoT fans!
