This crap drives me crazy. Every game I watched last summer on MLB.tv had it going on.

I really enjoy baseball but am overwhelmed by a sense that the owners are just greedy assholes who want to milk their fans for every possible penny. These ads cheapen baseball and remind me of that fact the whole time.

Occasionally you could even lose the pitch as it passed the right(wrong?) places in those digital adds.

I’d like to see MLB mocked by other leagues for this crap.

Oh awesome, that is great to know. Looks like I should do a little more Frigate research.

I used Music Assistant a little bit some time back. It seemed promising but it was pretty slow. It left me wondering if the CM4 in my Home Assistant yellow was to blame. I’ve been thinking about installing the CM5. Does anyone think that would make music assistant work better for me?

It’s a big dill.

Missed it, better luck next time I guess.

I was surprised to see Alcala optioned down to make room for Theibar. I’m not sure who I would have picked over him, but I’m guessing it was more on who could be optioned, rather than who was the least important.

I get the idea of keeping some depth around. Still a bummer for someone who seemed to be putting it together.

This was my first thought. Not sure if it is a nostalgia thing or if it was actually good at this point. I did like it a lot back then though.

So this definitely seems like the guide that helped the most. I spent more hours than I would like to admit working on this over this weekend.

I am trying to figure out if I have a way to do what I want to here. When it was all said and done I could no longer log into the remote computer I was using to run my Jellyfin server. I have been messing around a little bit using a Linux PC with that, and enjoyed that aspect of things, but it seems like once you get hardware acceleration going, you cannot see the desktop anymore. There were several warnings about this so I wasn’t entirely surprised when it happened.

I think I am going to end up needing to get rid of the proxmox part, and just run Linux directly on the computer if I want to do this, and remote into it. It is currently not hooked up to a monitor and is actually on top of my kitchen cabinets out of the way. It was a fun challenge and I learned a lot I think.

I have never used Feit lights with Home Assistant, but yes, my bedroom lights turn on when it senses motion. That automation disables when my living room lights are off (assuming we turn them off at bedtime) or when my phone plugs in to charge (which I do at bedtime). I use a motion sensor by Phillips Hue, and it integrates directly with the Home Assistant Yellow thru its Zigbee radio without an additional hub.

This is where the 120 volt power makes it a little worse for us Americans. 2200w would be 18 amps, easily taking most of the power on a breaker.

If kettles ever got more popular in the US maybe they could put 240v outlets in kitchens for kettles, but that would be a huge change.

21 miles this week. I had to cut my 10 mile run short yesterday because it was just too hot. It was 85°F when I left for my run in the early afternoon sun. Not a real smart move, but I thought it wouldn’t be so bad based on the season.

Running a half in a few weeks and wishing I had run a bit more over the last month.
