Minä sanoisin että makaroni+sikanauta jauheliha+sipuli+hernemaissipaprika tai joku muu höyste on nistipataa, kunhan se on 'kuivaa', eli ei mitään sooseja mitä yleisesti ottaen pastaruokaan kuuluu. Sitten jos seassa on kermaa tai muuta "kastiketta" niin siitä tulee jauhelihapastaa.

Ja lihan kuuluu olla nimenomaan sikanautaa, kanalla tehtynä se pitää erikseen mainita 'nistipata kanalla' (tai soijalla tai mitä nyt haluaakaan pistää). Ja koko komeuden ideahan on olla niin helppo kuin vain ikinä mahdollista, eli paistinpannu kuumaksi ja sinne sikanaudan sekaan mahdolliset muut höysteet ja pannu sitten kaavitaan tyhjäksi makaronikattilaan ja sekoitetaan.

    That style stoves are pretty common around here on older buildings. We have one and it really helps during winter and cuts down the electricity bill, at least as long as we have enough firewood to keep that thing going.

    The main material could be smashed/pulverized glass.

    As in sand. Glass is recyclable material, it makes no sense to use that for this kind of application since sand is already everywhere. Also at least some flavours of glass can melt on temperatures used on these which I'd imagine could cause problems.

    I hear aircrete is an insulation thats already prevalent in europe is this true?

    At least here in Finland it is not. It could be, but it's not really widely available right now. Maybe in the future, but that would need at least some changes on how things are built.

    It's interesting piece of technology, but it's not 'radical'. The company behind the storage has done their homework and they seem to be well engineered, but the "technology" itself is pretty much as old as bonfires, people have used hot rocks to heat up tents for 'a while'.

    But sand has pretty good thermal properties and size of these new iterations of old tech makes them pretty decent solution for energy storage with renewables. I've been following various 'sand battery' products for our own house, but the main problem with all of them tends to be the size required. In practise for our own house we'd need a sand battery roughly the size of 6m storage container (with heat pumps and all the other hardware) and that'd be so expensive that the investment wouldn't pay itself back in my lifetime.

    Domain on vanhentunut 15.7. ja sen takia palvelu ei sitten vastaa. En kaivellut IP-historiaa, liekö palvelin vielä pystyssä. Jokatapauksessa tuo on sivuston ylläpitäjän hommia ja jos ylläpito on päättänyt ettei ole enää kiinnostunut jatkamaan niin sille ei voi sitten mitään.

    Festool is good if you can eat the cost and in my opinion they are not that much better than alternatives. Hilti is absolutely beast, but their pricing is pretty much "if you need to ask you can't afford it". Metabo owns also Hikoki tools and they are pretty good based on a limited personal experience.

    But I'm spending my own money on Makita. Good tools and since I already have a bunch of their batteries it's pretty easy to choose brand. With wall power or air I don't have any brand loyalty, depends on the tool and how much I need it for.

    Pingviini, Aino, Classic ja Fazer jäätelöt ovat nykyään Froneri Internationalin tavaramerkkejä ja sen omistaa Nestle ja ranskalainen sijoitusyhtiö 50/50. Meira (mm. kulta-katriina kahvit) on osa Italialaista konsernia. Molemmilla tosin valmistus on ainakin osittain kotimaista.

    As others have said, this is something software can't do, so there's no linux tools for it. There is charge profiles which may help in the long run, similar than what your smartphone likely has. But that absolutely requires that your charger outputs the voltage and current your laptop requires.

    If the physical connector 'kind of fits' I personally wouldn't use it, even if the voltage was correct as it'll likely damage the connector on the motherboard and then you're looking for a much more complex repair. Laptop power bricks are pretty cheap.

    15% of GDP just from TLD is wild. But they have only ~10k people there, so makes sense that their GDP isn't really high.

    Montenegro is 'a bit' bigger country by GDP, so for them it's a lot closer to rounding error.

    Just protecting for spoofed IP doesn't add much in my opinion, at least compared to the effort of setting up and maintaining 802.1x. Easier way would be to set up different local networks per family and allow access to shared services via common firewall. That doesn't require support from devices nor it doesn't rely on security on them. Properly setting 802.1x would mean that you'll need to manage every device on the network somehow and, assuming you don't actually own or control the devices, that would be at least challenging.

    Your thinking isn't wrong, in that scenario network level authentication would help, but overhead of such setup is, again in my opinion, way more complex than what you can actually get in return. Of course if you want to just do it for the fun of it, go ahead. And also, if the devices are on the same network, they can sniff MAC addresses and IPs of neighboring devices, so protecting anything with just IP/MAC is a lost cause.

    Lately I've seen quite a few errors when browsing around Sopuli, either 504 gateway timeout or 502 bad gateway. They usually clear within a minute or two, but lately they've been far more common than before.

    Is this a known issue or has Sopuli grown out of the VPS limits again?

    Not a huge problem by any stretch, just wondering what might cause that.

     

    So, we have an exhaust fan at the roof and it doubles as a kitchen hood fan. The controls used to be on the hood, similar on what you'd have on a cheap desk fan with buttons 1-3 and only one can be pressed at a time. Some time ago a plastic broke from the mechanism and it allowed two buttons to be pressed at the same time and it fried the transformer by connecting two of the different voltage outputs together. I just bypassed the transformer and there's now just a single on-off switch, so the fan is either off or at full blast.

    Now we're remodeling the kitchen and I'd like to get smart controls on the fan, as it'd be nice to have it automatically turn on after shower or sauna to remove the moisture and obviously there needs to be controls in the kitchen to turn the fan up when cooking.

    I've searched around but haven't found a suitable controller for it which would have any kind of digital input. Modern fans around here seem to have logic built in and they can be controlled either via propietary systems or via 1-10VDC control, but as the current fan works I'd rather not throw several hundred euros for a new fan and some more for modifying the existing mounts at the roof.

    There's all kinds of triac-controllers which would do the trick, but all I've found have only manual controls. So, does the hive mind have suggestions on what I could use?

    I haven't checked the fan, but I'm guessing it's few hundred watts at max and there's absolutely no smart features in it. Give it some AC voltage and it spins, that's it. I'm happy with either few pre-set speeds or full variable via triac/whatever. I've got home assistant with z-wave running, but zigbee/thread/matter is fine too as I'm planning a migration to newer standard. For control esphome is an option too, but for the high voltage side I'd like to get something proper from a reputable vendor instead of soldering something together or getting a solid state relay for PWM via aliexpress.

     

    So, I've been running offsite copies to OVH S3 bucket via PBS running as an VM but I ran into an issue that verification of the backups is so slow that they're practically unusable.

    Copies run nightly and I've set the storage to keep last 4 copies in place. Bigger VMs, like my immich-instance with a bit over terabyte of data, take several days to verify and logs show data rates at around 5MB/s or less. So, with the current schedule I'm running it'll mean in practise that backups expire before they're verified.

    I could keep the copies longer, but that'd cost more, or run copies less frequently, which risks losing data if hardware fails at unfortunate moment (which it most likely will). Tuning settings are on default and based on what I've read, adding more runners wouldn't really help that much.

    PBS VM itself shows very little load on proxmox monitoring and I've got plenty of bandwidth to use, so the verification shouldn't have any bottlenecks on my end at those speeds. Cache usage is at around 60% with ~30GB of total space available.

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to speed that up? Or should I just give up and do something totally different? I attempted to run backups to Hetzner storagebox over cifs-mount, but that's pretty much the same or worse with performance.

     

    Our family watches TV trough IPTV and via streaming services and it's been fine enough for quite some time. However, now one of our broadcast companies got in a fight about streaming contract with our IPTV provider and we lost a few of the channels. Not that big of a deal for me personally, but apparently there's some shows the rest of the family wants to see. This isn't the first time and likely it won't be the last.

    However, all the free channels are available over air as well (and that's one excuse for IPTV operators to exclude offerings, "you can watch it anyway"). We have an antenna, but previous house owners just left the cable loose at the outside wall and brough it trough a hole in window frame. I've removed the cable and patched the hole for it and it'd be pretty difficult to run antenna cable to our TV set cleanly. However, I could pull a new cable nearby to my server stack with reasonable effort.

    It's been quite a while since I've played with capture cards and any kind of streaming, so maybe hive mind here has some ideas. TV already has Android TV box connected, so anything that works with it is a bonus, but not a requirement.

    So, what software (and hardware) I could use to pull video from DVB-T2 and stream that over local network?
