If pirates are going to keep hiding behind the "piracy is a service problem" line then at some point they do need to admit that paying for the product is actually the more sensible and straightforward option if they have reached a deadend elsewhere.

Uh, yeah, that's why "piracy is a service problem" was even a thing in the first place. Music is a great example, because you can get nearly every artist on every streaming service.

This is a widely-known fact often acknowledged by most pirate types.

It's been there since his last term.

Retirees? I'm not even 40 yet and my 401k dropped several thousand the last couple days.

An abusive spouse who's buddies with the police.

Designated Survivor dealt with that as well.

I wonder if the producer was inspired by Clancy...

I finally realized why I get so triggered over this - I lived it personally with my ex-wife. I see right through the facade of lies and bullshit. And it's maddening that nobody else seems to understand it.

I wish someone would fucking kill him. And Vance.

It does require you provide an email.

Yeah, fuck that. Extra unnecessary steps.

Add 12ft.io/ in front of the URL. It's a proxy that bypasses paywalls.

Don't post subscription shit

You're welcome. Fuck paywalls, and fuck clickbait that buries the actual info behind the paywall.

Wouldn't matter, that kind of person is incapable of self-reflection.

Yep. People suck.

Fun fact: Even less people are aware that New Mexico was named so centuries before the country of Mexico was named.

Dear Leader gives the people a boogeyman to blame for all of their fears. Dear Leader and his cronies spout lies upon lies about their boogeyman to keep the people scared and in line.

In essence, Dear Leader creates a problem, then sells a solution.

People like that are not the brightest doorknobs in the bunch.

Well, the coordinator is probably not the problem, and the soil sensors are probably fine, too; from what I have heard Thirdreality devices are generally quite good.

That's what I heard, too, and my wife is very happy with being able to know exactly when to water the plants, which is nice.

I trust you are using a USB extension cable for the coordinator and don't have it plugged in directly in the USB port?

Of course. It's zip-tied to a plastic support on the shelving that holds everything. Well away from wifi, too.

No idea how good the smart plugs are, but if one of the soil sensors is basically next to the coordinator and still falls off the network randomly then the problem is likely not the plugs or the network mesh.

Ah that was worded weird - it's one of the smart plugs that's next to the coordinator. The soil sensors are all on other floors.

All things being equal I would suggest switching to zigbee2mqtt and see if that helps. Even if it doesn't, and the culprit is something else, zigbee2mqtt is (in my experience) better in the long run, because it generally supports more devices than ZHA and is much quicker in getting new devices supported.

That was my thought as well.

I'm slowly converting everything to run on these little 1 liter PCs. I have three so far (four if you count the Mac Mini NAS), and an Optiplex 7050 SFF that's been a bit hotrodded with a 300W XE3 PSU, Precision 3420 CPU cooler, & Noctua fans w/extra intake fan.

I like the Optiplex for obvious reasons, but it's a bit of a power hog with the i7-7700 and 48GB RAM. I haven't measured them individually, but if I had to guess, the Optiplex probably accounts for a solid 1/3 of the power usage in my entire homelab.

Which coordinator do you use?

Connect ZBT-1

If the network is not well meshed then the link quality could be too low for the sensors to reliably stay online. Adding repeater devices (mains powered devices like bulbs) could help here.

One is within a few feet of the coordinator. I try to just not look at the network visualization as it just causes more headaches, but I have zero "green" connections... Maybe those plugs are just garbage though, IDK.

For a split second I thought he was about to put himself to "sleep" with the gun 😂
