RP2050 would work, as it also has the necessary built-in peripherals. ESP32 would add wifi and better ESPHome support. I suggest you stay away from the ESP8266, as it needs to do PWM in software and struggles with the 25kHz output frequency

As far as I can find, Plex does not support AMD iGPU for transcoding. Jellyfin will work, but support seems rather spotty. For other AI/ML work, it seems like ROCm is up and coming, but support - e.g. for Frigate object detection - is

I often read that take. Yes, the J4125 was fine for a few easy / low effort transcodes, like 1080p to 720p for mobile streaming. But I'm with you. The rest is fine, not great, but rather working well enough.

I totally agree with you. The appeal for me was the "it just works" factor. It's a compact unit and setup was easy. Every self-built solution would either be rather large (factor for me) and more difficult to set up. And I th

I would say cases like the Fractal Node 304 or something like the HL4 / HL8 from 45homelab would be the best suited candidates. Regarding mainboards - models from CWWK with lots of SATA ports have been trendy lately. But there are repo

It seems to be coming in multiple waves from multiple sides. One of those is EUs ISA: First a display, now a warning and later actual interference with the driver. And with the experiences with the current status are enough for me to be aga

That "subscription" is one which I gladly pay due to multiple reasons: 1. It supports the developers(s) 2. The price can be directly attributed to cost for training 3. You can keep the models you trained during your subscription i

The documentation is rather scarse on performance numbers, but it looks like the hierachy of price/performance is like Intel iGPU ("free"), Intel A310, Nvidia GPU. I'm explicitly leaving out the Coral TPU, since it'

I like the idea, but no. They have a two-stage approach, first motion detection with - I think - OpenCV and then afterwards object detection of zones of interest with different object detection models, depending on your hardware. It support

It's frustrating trying to work with ISPs. While there surely are business services available, as a normal customer, you're out of luck. I count myself lucky, since I can at least get a public (dynamic) IPv4 address. The other opt

A few years ago, I built a simpler version of that device myself. As you said: A 90% solution is easy to hack together. I had mine displaying Skype for Business status so my colleagues would know if I was in a call or just listening to musi

I'm offering you a different viewpoint: They made the analysis, how long the flash will live and saw, that it will make it out of the warranty period. Thus they did not opt for more durable and expensive flash and/or software chan

"That is left as an exercise for the reader" That methods goal is to be tamper evident. You are referring to tamper proofing which opens up another whole can of worms.

My bigger question would be why do you need to verify boot firmware? If we know your goal, maybe there is a better way. Tbh, I for myself would not care for physical intrusion. If someone (private or state sponsored) has the willingness to

You should be able to have two peers. The only thing I see is, that you may need to explicitly define the routing. The first peer is easy, with allowed IPs of 10.10.0.0/8. The 2nd peer will need more configs, as it should route everyth

Yeah. If you look at the complete board shots, those chips are inside the sandwich of PCBs. So yeah, it was probably disassembled in an reflow oven without much care for the components. 1. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/i

That's why I'm doing this with an ESP32 instead of an RPi. The ESP32 has the builtin capability to deep sleep and only draw a few uA of current. In addition, WaveShare offers existing micropython libraries, so it's easy to ju

Those HiFi people are still there. And the products evolved with time. My guess: >90% of music consumers don't care about quality as long as it's good enough. What they care is ease of use. Why should they have a complicated se

What's missing for the control of a CNC mill? Klipper doesn't force you to use a hotend.

I've followed this project for a longer time and I see less of the puritanical approach. The "typical" setup before Klipper was Octoprint on a Raspberry Pi and a 8-bit board connected by USB. This setup ran into a lot of spac

The only thing holding me back from switching to OPNsense is the lack of pfblockerNG. To the best of my knowledge, there is no competing package available at the time.

Lowest seems to be Protectli ( https://eu.protectli.com/vault-2-port/ ) or any of the chinese 4-port devices (Topton, Qotom, KingNovy, ...) in a barebones config where you add your own RAM & SSD. ARM-based devices ar

I've also had to decide if I want to use pfsense or opnsense, but for me, the pfblockerNG plugin was what tipped the scales in favor of pfsense.

Yeah. You have a live logging tab and can either put the URL into a whitelist rule by clicking on the plus icon or manually input it into a whitelist setting.

If you want to safe some bucks and don't need coreboot or local support, you can opt for various chinese resellers like topton or qotom which also provide firewalls based on the same boards. I'm running a J4125 based topton box an

Regarding the breaker side, there are different characteristics available. For example, I've switched the breaker of my workspace from B13 to C13, which both trip at above 13A (plus some) continuous, but C13 has a higher limit for shor
