One of the things I like about it is its flexibility. 08:27 < xray> I thought about getting their appliance but the reviews were terrible. 08:27 < xray> So I went with a Pi since I know how to manage them, 08:28 < xray> Although managing a Pi isn't much different than any other server I manage. 09:00 <@Evilpig> xray: I run it on my centos server without issue 09:00 <@Evilpig> the only drawback to it is the instructions for that aren't readily available 09:01 <@Evilpig> wget https://www.ubnt.com/downloads/unifi//UniFi.unix.zip 09:06 < xray> I've been using it for about year now and I like it. 09:07 < xray> My WiFI AP gets regular updates. What a novel idea. 09:08 < xray> All the consumer grade APs have terrible firmware support unless you can get LEDE for it. 09:09 < xray> LEDE merged back in with OpenWRT. I upgraded one of my old Netgear routers with it the other day and it is pretty slick. 09:10 < xray> I've been using RPis for a number of functions on my network. They have been surprisingly easy to manage and rebuilding them is very easy. 09:10 < xray> Also they don't draw much power. 09:27 <@Mirage> one thing i ran into is that the Unifi Controller likes to lose devices when/if they are on a different subnet/vlan than the Controller. The workaround I found was to set the "management" network on the device after you initially adopt it to be the native network of the controller. 09:28 <@Mirage> Otherwise you'll likely have to reset the device to defaults in order to have it show up again in the dashboard. 09:36 < xray> Thanks for the heads up 09:36 < xray> currently have only the one but I'm considering a second for the IoT stuff 09:36 < xray> Currently none of my IoT get networking of any kind 09:42 <@shapr> sensible 09:56 < xray> I want to do some research on the IoT devices so I need a secure network. I could use an RPi . 09:56 < xray> RPi 3. 10:07 -!- K`Tetch_ [~no@47.39.211.239] has joined #se2600 10:10 -!- K`Tetch [~no@unaffiliated/ktetch] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 10:15 -!- strages [uid11297@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-cumpisksetgvwuki] has joined #se2600 10:21 -!- K`Tetch [~no@unaffiliated/ktetch] has joined #se2600 10:25 -!- K`Tetch_ [~no@47.39.211.239] has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds] 10:25 -!- K`Tetch_ [~no@47.39.211.239] has joined #se2600 10:27 -!- K`Tetch [~no@unaffiliated/ktetch] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 10:30 -!- K`Tetch [~no@47.39.211.239] has joined #se2600 10:30 -!- K`Tetch [~no@47.39.211.239] has quit [Changing host] 10:30 -!- K`Tetch [~no@unaffiliated/ktetch] has joined #se2600 10:33 -!- K`Tetch_ [~no@47.39.211.239] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 10:38 <@Mirage> Guess I'm just weird because I think the whole IoT fad is just dumb. 10:38 < xray> I agree 10:38 < xray> You may be weird but not for that reason. :) 10:39 < xray> I saw a great keynote speech that talked about why IoT security is so bad and how they can fix it. 10:40 <@Mirage> The outlet adapters that just plug into an existing outlet to make it controlled I could see a use for to be able to setup a more random (aka natural) lights on/off scenario for when you're gone on vacation, etc 10:41 <@Mirage> I don't think I need my LitterRobot, stove, fridge, coffee pot, etc, etc all connected to some cloud app that I have no control over so that they can farm information passively 10:42 <@Mirage> The NEST thermostats would be nice (as well as the American Standard 'smart' thermostat that came with my new unit) if they had a local controller and didn't require internet connectivity in order to be 'smart' 10:45 <@Mirage> And on top of that, they have all these 'cool' features, but most of them are just gimicks. I asked the installer when he was talking about learning, scheduling, being able to view the weather, etc on the American Standard one if you could set the temperature based on the weather forecast...for instance when it's only 90 out set the AC to 74 deg, but if it's going to be 110 set it to 80. 10:45 <@Mirage> He said, "You know, that would be cool and make a lot of sense....but, no, they don't do anything like that." 10:46 < xray> I have found that if I want useful features I have to build my own controller. 10:49 < xray> I read an article where a Microwave controller board died. A replacement board cost more than a new microwave so the owner made his own controller out of a Raspberry Pi. Like this one https://madebynathan.com/2013/07/10/raspberry-pi-powered-microwave/ 10:52 -!- Warcop [~josh@mobile-166-170-57-66.mycingular.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds] 10:54 -!- Warcop [~josh@mobile-166-177-184-128.mycingular.net] has joined #se2600 11:01 -!- dfused [~dfused@c-73-11-137-36.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 11:04 -!- dfused [~dfused@c-73-11-137-36.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 11:10 <@Mirage> Evilpig: with comcrap do you get packet loss that leads up to kicking you off or is it just hard downs? 11:11 <@Mirage> I've got Spectrum business coming out again today. maybe the 5th time is the charm.. not holding my breath. 11:11 <@Mirage> At this point I'm 99% sure it's nothing in the house and likely not anything from the box on the street to the house. 11:17 <@Evilpig> I get both 11:17 <@Evilpig> generally with my packet loss days it just runs like ass but doesn't drop me outright 11:40 <@Mirage> I warned the chick on the phone that I'll be continually calling in about this until they find and fix the problem. 11:41 <@Mirage> I also told her that since I have a sript in place now that tracks the issue that I will likely be tallying up the downtime and calling in at the end of the month for a credit against the downtime 11:48 <@Mirage> In reality it won't add up to a lot, but if I make myself enough of a pain about this they will eventually take it seriously and find the problem. 11:48 <@Dolemite> That's because it has to be escalated over and over and over for anybody to take notice. 11:51 <@Mirage> I don't get how other ppl in the area haven't complained enough about it for it to get resolved in the past because I also get digital artifacting and guide timeouts on the residential cable as well. 11:54 < xray> I'm one of the original customers of Mindspring (now Earthlink). I would call Earthlink tech support an complain loudly and often at the 4000ms+ ping times to the first router and their DNS server. Yes you read that right 4 seconds +. 11:55 < xray> I argued with them for years and they never fixed it. I finally fired them and now use a different ISP. 11:55 < xray> Who has been awesome. 11:56 < xray> I have my own domain now and will be migrating off Mindspring email (which doesn't support secure protocols). 11:56 <@Mirage> I had mindspring up until Intermedia started rolling out cable internet in Antioch..I think that was 98 or 99 11:57 <@Dolemite> Yeah, I had mindspring WAY back in the day. 11:58 < xray> Mindspring was the first company to offer direct Internet connections for consumers. 11:58 < xray> Before that you had to have a T1 or better to get a direct connection from a backbone provider. 12:00 < xray> My usb cable stopped charging my phone. I pulled out another and compared the Micro USB connectors. The connector is just worn out. This is the first time I've just worn out a USB cable. 12:00 < xray> The cable served me well for many, many years. 12:00 < xray> RIP 12:01 < xray> Hmmmmm . . . now that I think about it I can cannibalize the cable for parts. Bwahahaha 12:01 < xray> So it will live on in some other project. 12:02 <@Dolemite> It was a stalwart cable, and we will never see it's like, again. 12:02 <@Dolemite> SO SAY WE ALL 12:02 <@Dolemite> s/it's/its 12:02 < xray> SO SAY WE ALL 12:03 < xray> If I don't have any spares it's off to Monoprice 12:03 < xray> I like Monoprice except for the high shipping costs. 12:03 < xray> Maybe I can get free shipping on Amazon essentials 12:15 <@opticron> yeah, when I buy from monoprice, I'm usually buying more than $100 worth of stuff 12:18 < aestetix> yep 12:18 < aestetix> almost no caffeine today, and almost no issues 12:18 < aestetix> fml 12:20 <@opticron> developing an allergy? 12:20 < aestetix> I hope not 12:45 <@Evilpig> xray: time to get you one of those new fancy reversible cables. 12:46 <@Evilpig> https://www.amazon.com/FosPower-Reversible-Charging-Motorola-Controller/dp/B01MFDOHUS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1536687953 13:22 <@Evilpig> Mirage: marshall has no hair 13:22 <@Evilpig> she looks like a dude 13:23 < xray> How does that work? 13:26 < xray> Just read an article about it.
