    If you’ve got access to the file system I think you could remove the custom component there - can’t exhausted resources if there’s no code!

    I did wonder if that was the one that did it. That’ll teach me to update multiple things at once.

    The only thing I lost was a day of recorder data and since I repaired it before bed I guess if I went and recovered the previous build I’d lose what I had overnight in the switch back.

    Thanks for letting me know though, I’ll warn my friends before they update.

    It’s hard to not make them sound trivial, but you’ll see some of them in the memes that pass through here. Off the top of my head though:

    • the importance of routine/consistency. He got up at the same time almost every day for 50 years. He went to the gym before anything got in the way, that sort of thing.
    • he pushes conscious decision making, of following through on things and being definite. Do not let yourself be guided by what you want in the moment, be guided by what you plan and intend.
    • put things in the same place. Put things back where you got them from. Don’t rely on your memory, rely on your habits.

    When I write these they seem silly and trivial, but they help me a lot.

    It’s hard though. A key criteria (at least in the UK) how much it affects you day-to-day. My father probably has it and passed along a lot of guidance that I now recognise as coping mechanisms/symptom management strategies. Day to day I’ve got it in hand, it’s only when the big storms come that I struggle, and that doesn’t fit with the diagnostic approach.

    It’s got a nice component to go with it, so setting up is easier. I particularly use it for scheduling thermostats, and find it much more user friendly. Sure I could do it with automations, but I’d either have one, massively unwieldy one with lots of states and triggers, or lots of individual ones.

    I have this battle - I am great at routine but terrible at habit. My wife asks me why I do the same thing every day, and I can’t really explain that I have to do it every day or i’ll stop doing it completely.

    These are a great example that I might use in the office. Everything makes sense in isolation, but the unity the wind, waves and sails don’t quite match in a way I couldn’t put my finger on.

    It’s hard to judge any airbrush by white. The pigment used tends to be larger than say a red, so it clogs more frequently.

    If you have some primed models, after you’ve cleaned your brush use the paints you have rather than a primer. As someone else said, there’s an additive in the paint to make it a ‘primer’ and that has a tendency to stick tight to the insides of my brush.

    This looks great, in no small part because the weathering on the rest of the leg looks great too. Show us the rest of the model!

    Part of the problem here I think relates to scale.

    If I invite a load of friends over to my house for a party, they might be in different rooms having different conversations but they’re all my friends in my house. No one cares who I let in or kick out, certainly not either of the next groups.

    Let’s say I’m part of the committee for the local community hall. We let our halls out to clubs. Some of the committee go to some of the clubs. I might not be interested in what it is, but if someone I trust says they are OK, I’m OK.

    At the local University they have a lot of spaces, each managed by the respective school. Each school has a slightly different ethos. Some of them might let their space to groups that other schools wouldn’t, but it’s not their call. They share some resources but not decision making.

    We’ve got this problem emerging. The decisions made by lemmyworld or other large instances are generally in service to their communities, whereas on smaller or more focused instances the instance level decisions are the same as community level decisions.

    If you need a minute, put them down somewhere safe, and take that minute. Sometimes the crying gets to you, and that’s OK too.

    I like to take it a step further - make the act of getting ready for the task a separate task. Other folks might see a single job, but when I have some repair work needing done around the house, I need a job to check if I have what I need to fix it, another to work out what I need to do, another to move it all to right place etc.

  • I’ve got a project in mind I’d like to test with the community before going ok deep on. I’d like to put together a face-recognising NVR closely tied to homeassistant. I’m thinking of using an RPi4 with a coral attached. Then installing docker and including the following: - frigate - doubletake - compreface (unless others recommend a better detector?) I have an MQTT server in HA but also wondering if it makes sense to have a local MQTT server for the NVR. As usual, I’m working on the edge of what I know, so any suggestions/comments on things that might trip me up would be warmly welcomed.

    There is a key to lock it closed, and the same key will lock it either on or off. In keeping with a Victorian Bell/Butler Board but not near it in the house. I guess it must be some kind of isolator switch, but I know nothing of its history.
