I’m trying to figure out how long I was on the road between two locations, ideally using #HomeAssistant and #SelfHosting data only. I suppose I could query #influxdb for time stamps between two loc strings (they are known locations in HA) and calculate the time difference between when I arrived at each location.

But maybe there’s an integration or something I haven’t found yet? Has anyone done something similar?

I met someone the other day named Boris. After he introduced himself, I was very close to saying, "Boris? Boris the Blade? As in, Boris the Bullet Dodger?"

But I was nervous there wouldn't be anyone around to interject with "Why do they call him the Bullet Dodger?"

That's the story. No dad joke or anything. Just a big fan of the movie Snatch.

Your too deep in the #python universe when one of your non-tech podcasts releases a ln episode with the word “Ruff” in the title and you think “neat! astral’s ruff has more popular applications and appeal!” 👨‍💻🤦🏼‍♂️

I guess good job @charliermarsh for getting the ruff worms into my brain.

I can’t exactly recall when this started happening but I want to say it was when I updated my container that runs #nginx / #openresty from #ubuntu 22 to 24.04.

Now I get these uptime kuma notifications at least every hour. There are no errors in OpenResty and no changes to my configuration. No changes in my DNS provider either. Checked #pihole and no obvious errors there (and no changes to the config). Anyone seen this before?

Thanks to randomly seeing a #jellyseerr message from @train on Friday, I spent the weekend exploring JellySeerr's features. It is an incredibly useful tool.

My one question is that I can't see my family or friends using it to request movies - they will more likely just tell me about it and at that point I'll grab the movie myself. This happen to others? Anyone have any adoption tips? #SelfHosting #movies #Jellyfin

This is more of a rhetorical question for the #homeassistant family, but here's a question that came up using #helpers.

How could I use helped to create a new binary sensor around the proximity of two other sensor's numbers?

Example, HA's proximity integration has "distance" sensors. If I wanted to create a "together" sensor that turns on when the two distance sensors are within 1 mile of each other.... can that be accomplished via helpers?

Nothing jumped out at me on first glance.

New #clipping. track "Keep Pushing" is incredibly good. If you're a fan of #DaveedDiggs or #HipHop in general, definitely worth checking out.

This line in particular is so good: "Try to keep the pulse in the tempo / Just cause it's automatic don't mean that it is simple"

Any #newfoundland / #newfie folks on #Fosstodon. Phrasing question - if you're going to the US, is the colloquial way to say that that "I'm going up to the mainland"? #language #canada #english

Somewhat relieved that Phil mentioned that on the latest @homeassistant podcast that he has random entities with no history data or stats. This was happening to me a few months ago with #IKEA #tradfri motion sensors. I didn’t do anything about it though and a few weeks later, they had history. 🤷 #HomeAssistant #selfhosted

@[email protected] @blackvoid Have you recently updated your web server packages? I faced some weird behavior in the past with #openresty where after an update, it reduced client_max_body_size and I had to manually increase it again.

@shom I looked for it everywhere. I'm assuming it is at the nginx levlel, but I even looked through authelia's setting as well, just in case. I'm stumped. Unless #openresty is also looking at nginx files in different locations and I missed it? That's something I can look into.

@Foritus i love when glory and destruction are just millimeters apart! definitely a #footgun. Saving that term for future use.

@fm_volker Yep, welcome to the world of #zigbee! Let me know if you find this chart... I tried zigbee2mqtt and I couldn't get everything to connect. But #deconz has been solid for 2 years now!

Posted about my #openresty troubles last night on selfhosted.rsmsn.co. What's weird about the issue is that any of the other systemd files that I've changed for my #selfhosted services don't usually get changed with the package gets updated.

But for whatever reason, OpenResty overwrites my file on each update. Took this happening 2-3 times before I realized it was a trend.

Does this happen to anyone else? Any solutions to solve it?

Our kid’s tag contains random/unique letters and numbers every time you print to prevent forgery/theft. One tag is on the child and the other with the parent so that they can grab their kids from the sunday kids school.

When they asked to see my tag, everyone looked at me a bit quizzically when I showed them this tag and pointed to each of my kids and said “The RZA, the GZA, Ghostface Killah - we are the Wu-Tang Clan!”

holy moly. sometimes you think you’re in a good flow when programming and you find a bug and start trying to fix it. only to spend an inordinordinate amount of time looking at everything except the basics. my #workato recipe #python node wasn’t outputting anything….

all because i tried appending to a list i never initialized. 🤦 so dumb. such is the life we’ve chosen.

@tmoe Did you end up settling on a solution?

Honestly, one of the big reasons I went away from NPM in docker was because of the lack of compatibility with #crowdsec. I settled on #openresty natively on the host and my other services in docker. I tried keeping it all in docker but couldn’t find a good solution or justify it.

To your original question - yes I think your concerns are justified. The other npm forks too far behind the original repo for me.

@[email protected] How about something like #ansible? I know the folks on the #selfhostedshow like @ironicbadger are big Ansible fans for creating once and replicating that setup elsewhere. Haven't used it personally, though.

Even though it’s been many years of using #neovim, I feel like I always need a refresher with #lsp stuff.

Let’s say you have #pyright installed, it’s in Mason and in your PATH, and code snippets/cmp are showing up as expected.

Why would a definition like “Path” (from pathlib import Path) show up, but not something even more simple like “split” or “print”?

Any #ntopng users on #Fosstodon? I'm trying to find a good whole networking monitoring tool, mostly to monitor outbound connections from within my network - rogue APIs, websites, etc. Maybe ntopng isn't the right answer... open to suggestions!
