Hello!
21:12
TofuLynx
So the chat was silent today...
21:12
TofuLynx
How are you guys?
21:20
Bertl_oO
fine, tx, and you?
21:28
TofuLynx
I'm fine too!
21:28
BAndiT1983
hey TofuLynx
21:29
TofuLynx
Hey andrej :)
21:30
TofuLynx
Thanks for reviewing my proposal btw :P
21:31
BAndiT1983
no problem, is my job more or less
21:31
TofuLynx
:)
21:31
TofuLynx
How are you?
21:32
TofuLynx
Still moving?
21:34
BAndiT1983
just last stuff, afterwards a bit of filling up holes from different stuff and putting some paint onto the walls to freshen them up in the old apartment
21:38
BAndiT1983
TofuLynx, what's the last state of your prototype? or were you busy with exams?
21:42
niemand
left the channel
21:42
TofuLynx
It's in the same state, with a single row and a single column with errors
21:42
TofuLynx
Hope the new house is going up to your expectations!
21:43
BAndiT1983
left a house, moved to flat ;) it's rather nice, but i have to get used to big city
21:43
TofuLynx
I'm on easter holidays right now, so I will try to at least fix that bug in the following days, although I have to do some work related to university
21:44
TofuLynx
I should talk with supragya though
21:44
BAndiT1983
will go to hamburg on saturday, then i will surely look into it, while on train
21:44
TofuLynx
if he is less occupied in the following month than me, I think he could assume the downscaler
21:45
BAndiT1983
but i'm excited, that my raspi now switches remote controlled outlets via web ui
21:45
BAndiT1983
you just have to inspect single channels, to find what writes additional stuff
21:46
BAndiT1983
maybe green channel first, as green dot appears as last pixel
21:46
MK

21:46
TofuLynx
wow, remote controlled outlets xD
21:47
TofuLynx
I would like to "smartify" my house too, especially with a xiaomi ecossystem
21:49
BAndiT1983
i have very old ones and tried to control them before, but now i've dived a bit more and could read out the code from the remote control, which usually needs a special battery
21:49
TofuLynx
wouldnt it be easier, nicer and probably safer to replace them?
21:49
BAndiT1983
?
21:49
TofuLynx
or is it too expensive?
21:50
BAndiT1983
they are not broken and totally safe
21:50
BAndiT1983
you can get such one for 10-15€ per 3-5pack
21:50
BAndiT1983
*ones
21:50
TofuLynx
I see
21:50
TofuLynx
and how do you control the rasp?
21:50
BAndiT1983
still can't read out another set from my girlfriend, she has ones which are learning the code themselves
21:51
BAndiT1983
pilight for now, to get the right codes and to test quickly, afterwards it will be openhab
21:51
TofuLynx
what do you mean by learning the code themselves?
21:51
TofuLynx
didnt know that system
21:51
BAndiT1983
you plug one in adn it blinks, then you press one of the four ON keys on the remote, outlet remembers it and reacts to it afterwards
21:52
BAndiT1983
you can also add other channels as well, if you want
21:52
BAndiT1983
if you remove it from the wall outlet, then it forgets things again
21:53
BAndiT1983
but this ones require that i use pilight-raw, as pilight-receive does not seem to recognize the protocol
21:53
TofuLynx
so it has some kind of volatile memory?
21:53
BAndiT1983
yep
21:53
TofuLynx
thats interesting!
21:54
TofuLynx
you usually turn off what kind of outlets?
21:54
BAndiT1983
?
21:54
TofuLynx
I mean, which devices or machines are connected to them?
21:54
BAndiT1983
at the moment mostly lights, as we haven't installed ones at the ceilings yet
21:54
TofuLynx
yeah makes sense
21:55
TofuLynx
I bought in the last november iirc a smart lamp
21:55
TofuLynx
Yeelight rgb color bulb
21:55
BAndiT1983
bluetooth?
21:55
TofuLynx
and I turned a big fan of smart bulbs, they are so great and so good for the eyes!
21:55
TofuLynx
nope, wi-fi
21:55
TofuLynx
they are constantly connected to xiaomi servers
21:55
TofuLynx
and I have them connected to my Google Assistant
21:56
BAndiT1983
that's what i try to avoid
21:56
BAndiT1983
everything should be controlled through my local setup, no cloud and other junk
21:56
TofuLynx
Yeah I understand that
21:56
TofuLynx
it's safer
21:56
BAndiT1983
also no other gateways, if possible
21:57
BAndiT1983
as every manufacturer has it's own: philips, ikea etc.
21:57
TofuLynx
but overall, I think this adds a lot to an connected ecossystem
21:57
TofuLynx
And I have been loving it
21:57
BAndiT1983
was talking to some guy from philips at the light+building fair, wanted to know if i can use their server in my local setup
21:58
BAndiT1983
there were already cases when robbers hacked into such systems and knew when no one was at home
21:58
TofuLynx
Yeah
21:58
TofuLynx
it's dangerous and we should take care of these ways of attacking
21:59
TofuLynx
but, in my mind, i try to be optimistic in relation to such servers
21:59
TofuLynx
I mean, I enter into cars, despite the probability of having an accident
21:59
TofuLynx
it's sorta of the same thing with always connected to the cloud thingys
22:00
TofuLynx
plus I live in portugal, which is very peaceful
22:00
TofuLynx
i could say, I would only avoid such systems after I get screwed once
22:00
TofuLynx
instead of always "preventing" it as it is some thing with 100% of certainty to happen
22:01
BAndiT1983
just read up on latest computer news, will avoid clouds like fire also in the future
22:01
TofuLynx
fire?
22:02
BAndiT1983
you can get burn by both ;)
22:02
TofuLynx
ah xD
22:03
TofuLynx
In the future
22:03
TofuLynx
I would like to have a self made smart system
22:03
TofuLynx
with a local server
22:04
BAndiT1983
it's not complicated
22:04
TofuLynx
Yeah, it's just a question of money xD
22:04
TofuLynx
which I dont have
22:04
BAndiT1983
my raspi is very old, it's raspi 1 b+ and even that works
22:04
TofuLynx
and I would have a house first xD
22:04
TofuLynx
to make a smart house, you need an house at least xD
22:05
BAndiT1983
don't think so, my flat will be half-smart ;) don't want it to get smarter than me and lock me out
22:05
TofuLynx
ahahahaha
22:05
TofuLynx
it would be awkward
22:08
TofuLynx
Well, it's late
22:08
BAndiT1983
here too
22:08
TofuLynx
I will leave now! :)
22:08
TofuLynx
Good night Andrej!
22:08
BAndiT1983

22:08
BAndiT1983
