Hmm, wrote an email a few pages long detailing how a system I wrote works, history etc. Then read that the guy just wanted a brief overview so summarised the whole thing in 3 sentences.

Yay!!!

Got not only can I get lock status and lock/unlock events with the credential type used and who it was in pretty much real time from my door lock, I can also lock and unlock it programatically/remotely!

All locally too, as far as I know.

It's a "Tuya" "Zigbee" deadlock with pin, fingerprint, and "IC" (13.56MHz UID).

I have it connected to a Tuya Zigbee bridge/gateway, & using the tinytuya Python library to communicate with the lock via the gateway.

Now to hook it up to Home Assistant

Looking for an old program at work. Found some copies of the directory I'm pretty sure it was in, but they're from too early. I'm looking for around 2008-2011 and the copies are from 2006 by the looks of file modification dates.

So what did I watch today? The logical thing would be some of the many many videos and TV shows I've been wanting to watch but haven't got around to yet. But I didn't do that. I re-watched season 3 of For All Mankind.

Of course this was after I got the OSD working again in a non-docker way with "ceph-volume lvm activate --all". So now, after it has finished recovering, I've got to figure out how to switch it back to a docker container.

Hmm, anybody know how to re-create the containers that ceph creates if they were accidentality deleted on a node?

Added a button to the phone, Feed. Activates a manual feed on the cat feeder.

The light below it, Octavia, is red if Octavia (our cat) is outside, green if she is inside. Assuming she goes through her door.

Yay got the Emby app on my phone working on my WiFi again. Apparently when connected to WiFi it was connecting to the "Local IP Address" and port instead of the URL entered. I'd also installed JellyFin on that same computer, which was using that port. So the app was getting that instead of Emby. Always worked fine locally via a browser as I would go the FQDN.
