Similar story here, Bose QC whilst the house next door was (basically) being demolished... I just found the headphones ate batteries faster.
I sometimes find I'm just working with the headphones on and whatever I was listening to had stopped ages ago.
by blocking everyday sounds such as cars beeping, there is a possibility the brain can "forget" to filter out the noise.
Also growing up in the quiet countryside, I can say that you do not “forget” to hear sounds like cars... it's definitely the everyday background noise that's the problem.
If not, IMHO I'd use the ISP equipment as a pass-through modem (if possible on that model?) and have a separate OpenWRT / pfSense firewall do all the heavy lifting for DHCP, DNS, ad blocking, etc
Thanks, I was following this thread and wanted to say the same thing
I've kept updating shops that change, new houses, parking, etc... it's great. I even used it on vacation (when the SO wasn't looking)
My global rank is #1554 and ~#130ish in my local country, but #12 in another country I barely visit, so it shows where more people should complain less support more.
But to echo some other comments here, whatever you do, keep it simple and ensure a botched HA update doesn't freeze / cook you by using standard components as a backup / failsafe
Also consider outside your home too - either permantly VPNing back through your home network, or (ie for Android) Tracker Control, which will block most ad / sdk / geo trackers that it knows about.
Ok, thanks. Yeah, I don't use PostgreSQL much, so I have to get my head into it.
That said, it's only for Immich, so I could just wipe it and start again which might be quicker... it only took 3 days to scan the photos, it might take me longer to update the database 😉
Updated my NAS recently and Immich's database stopped working due to some PostgreSQL update that needs something changed manually, so I need to get my head around that.
Also trying to get a tablet to run as a 2nd satellite for HomeAssistant voice commands and no matter what I do, only the 1st one responds to wakeword... but I tend to give up after everyone's gone to bed as I'm literally in a room on my own talking to myself...
It's a great piece of software, but I had a hell of a time blocking some countries for torrents.
A single IP in China was repeatedly downloading an Ubunto ISO, I think due to the various methods of peers finding each other, so in the end I had to create an additional alias to block outgoing traffic even though only I was only allowing specific other countries in.
Without repeating my other comment. This approach saved my life many times
