Started playing around with and cheap sensors and smart powerplugs (and some , also got some sensors I haven't unpacked yet).

It's been a steep learning curve but it's cool that most of the stuff just works (TP-Link and , Zigbee, (using the Hue Bridge, not directly connected to my Zigbee coordinator). Some stuff this uses the cloud (but can be used locally), other stuff takes out the cloud entirely. (1/2)

is quite cool in the visualisation as well. It's simple (but at times limiting in the UI) -- but quite simple to put together a . I could connect as well but that’s... for (much) later.

It connects with a wide range of stuff pretty much out of the box

like , , and all the usual smart home suspects. Ordered some devboards to try to build a BLE proxy/repeater for a BLE sensor (https://www.simplysmart.house/blog/bluetooth-proxy-home-assistant-epshome). “kinda works" but range seems to be a problem (even with repeaters) and buttons (the button press doesn't always register) or sensors can be unreliable (no update for a long time)

Re: #Zigbee unreliability. This is the Zigbee map in a small apartment in #Singapore. The Star light (Ikea bulb) is unplugged, but the Power Plug Blue isn’t... However it has no link/route to the coordinator or another plug (eventhough it's like maybe 10 meters away from routers and the coordinator). Not yet entirely sure why. (1/3)

Can say that my block storage for is massively growing. A year ago it was stable at ~80-89Gb, but lately it's heading to 200Gb+

Growth past week, cleanup operations lower the storage size but on average it’s growing.

has already lost to Messenger in 🇺🇸, so in a sense @zuck has already won.

@darnell @zuck as a foreigner I don’t get popularity in the US. The clients are total crap, a lot of features are lacking, the UI is not very nice, it's a hassle to set up if you change sim cards, activating requires SMS (which have roaming fees if abroad), they lock out any non-Apple user (which is a significant portion of the world), etc. (1/2)

In Singapore everyone is using #Whatsapp, including businesses, bots are popular (to schedule delivery, order airplane food, etc). Apple is so fixated on the US and keeping control and vendor-lockin it totally missed the boat. Literally no one I know in Europe or Asia uses iMessage (or Facetime for that matter) (2/2)

@darnell weird, noone I know uses iMessage (in Singapore/Asia).

WhatsApp is super reliable (and you can call freely internationally or do video calls; quality is also good).

I think I prefer FaceTime for calling the parents in BE from SG, because of the iPad app and the quality is a bit less grainy over long distance; but for everything else, Whatsapp is #1 here, and Telegram likely #2 (usually is the more spammy/anti-gov/dodgy corners).

@darnell
People don't even activate iMessage/Facetime on their iPhones here.

shopee.sg does 2FA over Whatsapp instead of SMS. Every business has a Whatsapp account you can chat with.

@yeri@superuser.one avatar

@darnell Maybe they are in a certain (tech?) scene? travel more? but for sure my singapore family and friends of my wife don’t use iMessage at all. You can’t get buy here without WhatsApp. FedEx/DHL/local delivery uses it (and delivery guy will send a picture via whatsapp of the delivered goods etc)

Any reviews/recommendations about the #fuji #x100 (#x100s or #x100t -- the newer gens are double the price)? Looks like a fun and easy to carry camera. Looking for imperfections in the pictures. I know nothing of #photography as well :) #fujifilm

“draw an image of a kid playing a gameboy” okay yea…

@yeri@superuser.one avatar

is really struggling with this one.

An over-the-shoulder view of a child playing a GameBoy, showing the back of the kid's head and shoulders as we look onto the screen of the device. The child has messy brown hair and is wearing a green hoodie. The GameBoy screen is visible, displaying a classic 8-bit video game. The background is softly blurred, focusing attention on the child and the game. This perspective creates an intimate and immersive view into the child's gaming experience.

I’m looking for a “thingie” to hand #WiFi access points ~0.5m from the (metal) ceiling. It’s something like this.

What is this called, and where can I buy this?

yeri,
@yeri@superuser.one avatar

@gbraad bit annoying because i need a few (like 30 or so) and can’t really find something that’s affordable, small, easy. There’s project mounts but $$$ and stupidly big/heavy

yeri,
@yeri@superuser.one avatar

@gbraad heh… crazy! I mean I get it, a project/beamer is maybe 10-20kg so this things needs to be sturdy… but that’s silly in terms of costs ;)

@gbraad The reseller (dectdirect.nl) replied this:

which I don’t think is gonna look nice/proffesh at all. PVC might even break if someone manages to knock something against it (a ladder or something)
