[399.96 --> 402.86] drive for cheap, send me a message and... |
[402.86 --> 407.46] You're not keeping it as a backup? Oh, what about a hot swap? Come on, Alex. |
[408.48 --> 413.74] I've already got one of those in there. I don't need, I don't need a backup for my hot spare. |
[414.34 --> 416.54] Mister, I don't need 12 terabytes over here. |
[417.32 --> 421.90] Okay. Here's the thing, right? I went through and so I used, I use radar a lot, right? I know |
[421.90 --> 426.80] we don't talk about this stuff very much, but I use radar a lot too much if I'm being perfectly |
[426.80 --> 435.72] honest. And I added some automations to automatically based on lists, right? So in any given week, |
[436.48 --> 445.14] 50 to a hundred movies appeared on my system. And I just had no idea where I was going to find the |
[445.14 --> 450.08] time to watch all this stuff. So about when that drive failed, actually, I just went through and |
[450.08 --> 458.32] deleted terabytes and terabytes of stuff. So my array, let me have a look, merger FS, here it is, |
[458.80 --> 467.98] 71 terabytes right now, used 25, remaining 47. So I think I'll be all right without the extra 12. |
[468.12 --> 472.88] I think. Yeah, you'll be all right. You'll be all right. I just recently did that too. I was getting |
[472.88 --> 477.96] ready for the trip or something like that. I wanted to grab some shows and I realized I was down to like |
[477.96 --> 485.76] two terabytes of free space and I had like four terabytes in my queue. And I knew as I was looking |
[485.76 --> 491.10] at everything, I was like, before this finishes, I'm going to run out of disk space. You know, |
[491.20 --> 497.06] one of those moments. And I just went on a deleting rampage, dude. And it felt so good. Like it felt so |
[497.06 --> 500.70] good to just delete stuff. I know I'm never going to watch. I got a bunch of stuff on there. |
[500.70 --> 506.96] There was like, just I, I, if I had it on DVD, I backed it up. Or if somebody, like a friend wanted |
[506.96 --> 511.38] to request something, the system would go grab it for them. And there was so much stuff that I was, |
[511.52 --> 517.20] nobody was watching ever. It felt so good to purge. It felt so good. Now I've really refined it down to |
[517.20 --> 522.18] like the stuff that I've either handcrafted or, you know, the stuff that is like in the watch queue |
[522.18 --> 527.02] or something like that right now. Let the internet be your backup. How about that? See, I was still |
[527.02 --> 531.86] kicking it old school to where I bought my DVDs and Blu-rays, ripped them across, put them onto |
[531.86 --> 536.52] my Plex media server. And then when, and if something were to happen, yeah, I can always |
[536.52 --> 543.44] re-rip those down. So I haven't made that next step. You know, I have to say proudly, proudly that |
[543.44 --> 549.80] the Blu-rays that I have ripped are always better than the ones that you can get off the internet. |
[549.80 --> 555.84] Like, I don't know, man, maybe it's, maybe it's just because I know what the FFM peg commands do. |
[555.84 --> 561.46] I don't know what the difference is, but it always, my encodings years later, like I'll come back, |
[561.50 --> 567.26] like we're watching, my wife and I are re-watching Star Trek Enterprise. I hand ripped every one of |
[567.26 --> 573.14] those episodes, right? And I did it meticulously with two pass encoding and like all the right, |
[573.30 --> 578.96] all the right settings. And it just, it holds up. And I did that work years ago. Very proud of that. |
[579.04 --> 580.46] So that kind of stuff I did not purge. |
[580.46 --> 582.70] With the setting, make my CPU hurt, huh? |
[583.12 --> 590.12] Yeah. All right. So I, I have to ask the audience, Josh, you too. You know, I've talked |
[590.12 --> 596.28] positively about the HomePods as a voice control mechanism for Home Assistant. I like them. Not |
[596.28 --> 600.84] only do I think they are the best sounding Home Assistant, but the commands to interface with |
[600.84 --> 606.36] Home Assistant using the HomeKit API are all done over the LAN. The voice transcription is done remotely, |
[606.36 --> 613.30] but once it figures out what you've requested, the HomePod executes that request locally over the LAN |
[613.30 --> 619.92] to your Home Assistant server using the HomeKit API. It's very nice. It's more private. I just have |
[619.92 --> 627.72] preferred it. I don't know what's changed, but Siri has lost it. Like lost it. Like if I say, |
[628.18 --> 633.56] hey, LadyTube, turn off the entry bar, her response after she thinks about it will be, |
[633.56 --> 640.12] okay, I've turned off the Apple TV 4K. I'm sorry. The Apple TV 4K is not responding. |
[640.92 --> 644.92] I didn't say anything about that. If I say, hey, Siri, turn off the bed skirt. |
[646.00 --> 650.20] She just won't say anything. Like nothing happens. Like commands that I used to do on a daily basis |
[650.20 --> 656.16] as I was coming and going from my home just in the last week, quit working. She just thinks I've |
[656.16 --> 661.22] said something completely different than what I've said. Completely different. And then I don't know how, |
[661.22 --> 665.42] I don't know if my wife tapped something or what happened, but somehow personalized results have |
[665.42 --> 670.18] been turned on and now it's doing voice recognition. And of course it like sees a different set of |
[670.18 --> 675.68] devices for some reason when my wife has a command versus when I have a command. This just changed. |
[675.96 --> 681.36] And it feels like somebody came into our home and moved all the light switches around |
[681.36 --> 687.84] and hooked them up to different stuff. And it's super frustrating because like the wife approval |
[687.84 --> 692.48] factor, which has been very high on this entire system is on a decline right now. |
[693.60 --> 697.42] Have you guys experienced this with, with any of these voice assistants? Is this something unique |
[697.42 --> 702.32] to Siri? Is anybody in the audience? I'm like, I'm lost for words and I don't know what to do |
[702.32 --> 706.22] because of course I've got these stupid home pods all over the place and now they're working for |
[706.22 --> 711.00] crap. And it might actually be home assistant's fault. That's the other thing is I opened up my home app |
[711.00 --> 716.42] and the home assistant stuff didn't look right. I don't know what was going on. So it may actually |
[716.42 --> 721.30] be something in home assistant, but more troubleshooting needed. You got to warn us when |
[721.30 --> 726.34] you're getting your site box out, dude. I know. I know. Josh, have you experienced this? |
[726.74 --> 732.30] So I'll be honest with you, Chris. I've just put my big toe finally into the home automation side of |
[732.30 --> 736.80] the house and I still don't trust any of the voice command stuff. I want to make sure it's all |
[736.80 --> 741.94] here locally toward the point where I put that entire thing on pause. I didn't own my home yet. |
[742.22 --> 747.10] I now have bought my first home. The issue was I needed to make sure I could segment my network |
[747.10 --> 753.72] correctly to where I had an IOT network. I had a home computer network. I had a security system |
[753.72 --> 759.70] network completely separated to make sure they can't see each other. And then just then literally |
[759.70 --> 765.30] last week after listening to you guys forever on using home assistant, that's, what's running on the |
[765.30 --> 770.72] silver pie behind me is I've got that in the con B running and I've started playing with that. |
[770.82 --> 775.34] And it can't see other than what I told it to because it's only on that network. |
[775.76 --> 779.16] Yeah. I like that you started with the security first. That's a great idea. You know, the utility |
[779.16 --> 785.64] of the voice commands, especially because home family members don't want to walk to tablets every |
[785.64 --> 791.42] time has been really like crucial. I think in the approval factor by the whole family, because |
[791.42 --> 796.64] you know, everybody from, you know, kids to new people that are visiting can do it really quick. |
[796.64 --> 799.94] But now it's gone totally sideways and it makes the whole system look loony. |
[800.42 --> 804.70] I'm hoping that Mycroft gets a little bit better and or we get more to where we're doing it locally |
[804.70 --> 809.38] again, because like one of the things that I've got is the re-speaker with the four mic setup. |
[809.38 --> 815.80] And when I tried testing that about a year and a half ago, it wasn't great. Not that the hardware |
[815.80 --> 822.84] wasn't great. Software wasn't great. So I think it's coming, but it's not there yet. So I'm not |
[822.84 --> 826.74] going to hit that button. I must say, I'm not particularly surprised to hear Josh hitting the |
[826.74 --> 833.70] security angle pretty hard from the get go because you're involved with the DEF CON scene, aren't you? |
[833.70 --> 838.86] I am. I've been going to DEF CON for a few years now. I enjoy the security aspect of it. So |
[838.86 --> 843.26] DEF CON's coming up here. It's not like in 45 days and so many hours. This is fine. |
[844.22 --> 849.04] I see. I see. Well, it's a good angle to look at this stuff. I think you should always start from |
[849.04 --> 854.54] a position of not trusting these devices at all, you know, and you like, I'm sure like you guys, |
[854.76 --> 860.92] I am before I buy anything these days, I tend to do a lot of research on if it can be locally |
[860.92 --> 865.64] controlled, what, you know, what it's built on information about the company, like buying a |
[865.64 --> 870.96] device these days feels like you have to like almost get in a relationship with a company. |
[871.30 --> 874.62] That's one of the things I really appreciated about local control. Anytime there's a local API, |
[874.84 --> 879.56] that's a big win for me. I feel like that was one of the things I liked about the HomePods. |
[880.24 --> 882.78] And I mean, like I just, another thing, I just got a Nanoleaf. |
[882.96 --> 883.20] Nice. |
[883.38 --> 886.84] And these things are, these are really nice. They're wood. They look like wood on the walls. |
[886.98 --> 888.22] But you got the wood ones. Sweet. |
[888.22 --> 891.00] And they look really great. They just look, they almost look like art on their own, |
[891.08 --> 895.90] even when they're off. And true to the documentation, when you power that thing and |
[895.90 --> 900.38] you get it on your Wi-Fi, Home Assistant automatically detects it and suggests, hey, |
[900.40 --> 905.24] would you like to install the Nanoleaf integration? And it was just a little wonky at first, |
[905.26 --> 910.38] but it's been totally solid since. All local API, no cloud, no cloud account, no nothing like that. |
[910.52 --> 915.60] It's very nice. So, you know, there's wins and losses. So I feel like the Nanoleaf win, |
[915.60 --> 921.80] like offset, like the HomePod loss recently. But now I'm just kind of, you know, now I've just |
[921.80 --> 922.84] kind of equalized everything out. |
