  Oh good I'm not the only one. ;-)

I am looking to control a set up vertical slat drapes with either a Zigbee, Z-Wave or WiFi device. I could probably build one but I want to see what is out there before I attempt that. There are 2 sets of controls. One turns the slat (180 degree motion) and the other for left to right control of...

Thanks, a most useful discussion.   I'm not familiar with these forms of NTP. What's so special about them? I normally use open NTP on one internal server. The router is usually a backup. I do this with many services. I've found that this is not so easy with IPv6 and it's forms of DHCP (ask for...

We have a pfsense setup in our computer museum. It was too easy to setup, so it must be broken. :-)   I did like it as I was able to get to the command line and figure things out. And since it's a unix I shouldn't have a huge issue learning the intricacies of BSD vs Linux vc any other unix I've...

Thanks Pete that's what I was looking for. The link gave me those extra details that will help me when I actually purchase. :-)

  What speeds are you handling? I'm trying to figure out what CPU is enough to handle 2 10G interfaces.

I recently was force to juggle my phone/TV/Inet and ended up paying less and got more. But the internet is now 1.25G/35M. My little Ubiquiti ER-Lite isn't up to the task. I do not want FW/Router with WiFi. I am thinking of going with some thing like a 1U computer with a PCI board. The 2.5/5/10G...

5/17 - Went for a 110Km ride to Allentown NJ. Normally this place would be busy and quite lively. It very quiet, a bit disturbing. The local ice cream place was open but with odd hours. It opened at 3PM until 8PM. I planed to be there by just about 3:30PM but I had a bit more work upgrading the...

  Hmm, careful, this is not my area of expertise, so take with a grain of salt (the size of Manhattan).   But there in lies the issue, if there's carrier of the virus there are now carrier + party. Some may get sick, some may die but some many show no symptoms but are still carriers.  Since...

  Seldom can you trust the information coming out of China, it's heavily censored. Weighted towards favorable information towards China. It also seemed too good to be true.   I hope were that smart, we have a lot more folks more worried about the economic impact and down playing the health...

Oops, hit save too quick. I saw that today and I'm impressed.I was also surprised by the 30 day lock down of New Rochelle NY (I think it's NY). Besides I'm from the Bronx, not Queens (where Corona is ;-) ) and I don't drink beer. And yes I've heard those questions on the local radar along with...

Can I change my vote to yes, I'm now worried about the secondary effects from the fear of the virus. 

I want to say no but I'm saying undecided for now. I don't trust the information out of China. Let's see how well the rest of the world deals with this and I'll decide. I think we'll see this again next year.

I'm not sure to love this or hate this. It's funny as hell except too many folks accuse conspiracy on the moon landing (and other things).

Unless you're lucky! ;-)
