    agreed! being able to unlock the phone while im pulling it out of my pocket was great. But the one place that fails is a phone sitting on a surface. i say give me two sensors! One one on the back and one under screen

  • Well I totally borked my ZigBee network, and it looks like I'll need to factory reset and re-pair everything. I ignored the warning, and attempted a channel change. Lost everything and can't get any device to connect. So since I need to do this, what is everyone's preference of ZHA vs Z2M? I was on ZHA, but am I missing anything on the other side?

    I have templates for various regular meetings that I attend. In these templates I have a property called "attendees". In each template I pre-populate that with names of folks who are regular attendees. Then I can edit it to catch the attendees on that specific day. This helps me when I search for a person's name it pops up with the meetings they attended.

    Have you considered a travel router? I have a Gli.net travel router, and that can connect to an existing WiFi network and then you can create your own lan behind that. You can even configure it to use a VPN service if your concerned about your traffic on the existing WiFi.

  • Hello all, I currently have my primary NAS running TrueNAS Scale, and I am adding a second as an off-site backup of my critical data which will also run TrueNAS Scale. I have three datastores at the moment, nextcloud, backups, and media. I want to replicate the entirety of nextcloud and backups, but for media I only want to backup my irreplaceable media. This would be personal photos and videos, but not my collection of Linux isos. Is it possible to have a ZFS Replication task that excludes certain directories? If not, how would you recommend I approach this? Thanks!

    I struggle to find a motherboard and separate CPU that gives me better value that this. Neither of these are perfect but I think that offer plenty for my use as a NAS.

    I'm very happy with my current N5105 board that I linked, even though it doesn't have any PCI slots. With 6 SATA and two M.2s I should be ok. If necessary I can add a 6 SATA M.2 adapter to get up to 12, which is definitely more than I need. If/when I get 10gbe I would have to upgrade either of these to get those speeds. Although a M.2 PCI riser with a 10gbe card would get me ~7gb so that is also an option.

    Any thoughts on these two boards? I don't see any real disadvantages to the N100 board when compared to the N5105.

    I will be running Truenas scale with ZFS, so will be installing 32GB of memory.

    I realize a full size PCI slot would be better, but not really necessary for my application. Both have 6 SATA and two M.2s. I could put a 6 SATA/M.2 adapter in when I need more HDs. I'm really just comparing these two, and I don't really see any disadvantages to the N100 board.

    It is listed at 32GB, but I've seen folks online who have installed more and tested it. Same 16GB limit listed with the N5105 that I currently have. I have 32GB on that and tested it.

  • Hi all, I am looking at building my next NAS. My current will move to offsite, and the new will be primary. I previously used [this motherboard](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804565944286.html), and was planning to go with that again. Then I saw [this one](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806205627652.html), which seems like a better option. It has a slightly better CPU and a PCIe slot, but can only have 32GB memory max compared with 64GB max on my current. Am I missing anything or is this a no-brainer to switch to the N100 board?

    This is great news!! A world stage for the NHLs best players can only help the NHL. I have non-hockey fan friends that will bring up US losing to Canada with Crosby's goal and even Oshies crazy shootout game

  • I'm a bit stuck at the moment and hoping I can get some guidance. Right now I store my media and other files on a few external drives connected to one of my Proxmox nodes, and passed through to an OMV VM. I backup everything important off-site. I'd like to separate my storage from my Proxmox nodes into a dedicated NAS and dip my toes into ZFS and also Proxmox high availability. I also want to roll open source software (probably TrueNAS) on the NAS, but I do not want to build an entire PC. The off-the-sheld Synologys and the like seem like overpriced hardware especially if I'd prefer an alternative software. I am considering getting one of the used business PCs or other mini-pc and connecting a USB-C DAS up to it and installing TrueNAS on the mini-pc. Is this a viable approach? Am I setting myself up for a system that I'll want to upgrade in a couple years? Here is an article that describes a similar approach: https://www.androidauthority.com/cheap-diy-nas-server-3348392/

    I've got a brand new Pixel 8 and my battery isn't making it through the day. Android tells me Firefox is eating it up in the background. I just changed it to restricted battery use and I'll see if that helps. I do not want to switch to Brave or Chrome, but this is intolerable. What are you favorite Firefox alternatives and why? Mull? Librewolf?
