I mean you can cook on an cars engine exhaust (tho good luck finding a place now they the engine bay is just plastic covers) or cook a fish in a dishwasher (wrapped in tin foil)

So my partner and I use laptops (small flat) so really sip power compared to the 65 watt of the monitor

What res is that monitor ? My 2k monitor is pretty hungry compared to my old 1080. Even just looking at the uk energy efficiency ratings for 4k tells shocks me !

I run snapraid and mergerfs, as the nas storage. Not much changes on my NAS and the stuff I really care about like my pictures and videos are on a small ZFS pool. Both are directly on proxmox, meaning I can just plug them in to another Linux machine and research if it all goes sideways. Its all shared from the host via SMB NFS or for jellyfin and immicher its a moint point for the container

Looks like a cpu/gpu type power connector. Even if its a standard plug does not mean its a standard pin out ! Craft computing on YouTube had what looked like a standard plug in his server but it had a 12volt and ground switched, so would have caused some real damage

I second this, when a drive shits the bed a sata controller handles it better, some times with a USB adapter you mess the whole bus up and need a reboot of the machine (from using them on windows experience)

Does it make the bleeps when you press buttons and move sliders ?

I’m sure there is a better way, but I seem to remember there was a watch folder integration that you could use to watch the TTS folder and then play that new file on a speaker. Not sure how you could then play it on the correct speaker, and I’m sure someone else has a much better real solution than this

So I don’t think HASS really names them, I think they have a default/preset name on themselves, like “TZ3000_2”

Before areas was a thing in HASS I would name things with an area name. ESP32-5-Bedroom. Now I just leave it what ever it defaults to, then use HASS to name them, and then put them in an area.
