I wonder if you could take a lien against yourself, it would show up for any potential buyer...


I think these models can act as router while leveraging RNDIS tethering if you don't have a separate sim card...


Zero mention of anything other than WiFi on its tech specs page :-/

Have been self-hosting this on Docker/Portainer for several weeks for a few people. Works fine so far.


I'm running thingino cameras off wifi and the stability is kinda meh... Want to try a wired setup with a PoE USB Ethernet adapter...


My Thingino camera seems to have some RTSP issues, which is a shame because I’d like to use it on more devices.

2.4 GHz sucks though. Wish my mesh allowed me to use multiple 2.4 GHz channels concurrently or per node.


I might just succumb and do the prudynt restart by cron every once in a while as this does seemingly fix it.


For most part it's okay to pass through by I'd, unless it's some chinese device, which reminds me of the scene from Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou:

"- do interns get Glocks? - no, they all share one"


_If_ the device does have a serial by id, you’ll be fine - if not (I.e. it is mapped by /dev/bus/usb/001/002 for example) you’re mostly out of luck. Cases in point recently encountered: USB printers (to be used in container with CUPS), Eaton UPS to be used in container with NUT.

No amount of scripting with systemd path units, pre and post hooks, udev rules could make those work reliably (for me).

Solution, or workaround, after much headdesking: put services into a VM, map USB device by vendor:device ID, done.

If anyone could shed a light into why that is possible with a VM but not a LXC container, I’d be thankful!


Originally I was planning on building the NAS with just the Minisforum MS-01, but truenas and USB enclosures do not play well together.

So I went for the AOOSTAR NAS mini-pc as a "proper" solution. Ended up with two machines, so why not join them into the cluster!

Probably can chuck proxmox on a RasPi somewhere, just for quorum purposes :)


At least I was laughing at the Cloudflare oopsie, since all my light switches (et al) are all local. Unlike those people with a fancy smart bed that went into a W shape because it couldn't talk to AWS.


At first I had the unholy abomination that is Frigate LXC container, but since it's not trivially updatable and breaks other subtle things, I ended up going with Docker. Was debating getting it into a VM, but for most part, docker on LXC only gave me solvable problems.


Look ma, I'm on the TV. The merch is in the back, sub to the YouTube channel...
