Also flashing custom Head Unit software to your car will be very hard, is not well documented, and likely will void your warranty, giving low incentive for developers to even attempt it :/

I hope that Europe will demand car manufacturers to allow the installation of an after market kit, or better, to install our own software. I’m sure that the open source community will jump in (I’ll chip in for sure!)

It seems interesting, although it will cost 95€ with the speaker, but I guess that’s gonna be a definitely better audio than the one of the HA Voice. The disappointing thing is that they don’t sell the enclosure nor provide a 3D design to print your own ☹️

Edit: I’ve just watched the video; this is a public beta (not shipping yet to Europe), they will provide enclosure (specs to print our own to) with speaker and also all the accessories. I’ll keep an eye on the website to check when it will be out of beta and available for Europe. I’m very excited about it!

Thanks

my kid will ask me one day why we say “hey Mycroft” and I’ll tell him “it all started with a raspberry pi and a Kickstarter”

😍

Thanks. Other 2 devices that I’ve bought out of excitement that will keep taking dust :( I’ll try the “voice” and let’s hope that I’ll have time to set it up! 🙈

Same here :(

Like…?

Edit: I’ve bought the M5 some months ago but I haven’t had the time to play around with it, should I buy this one and forget about the M5?

Are there difference between this and a 13$ M5 Atom Echo?

So, like ZigBee, thanks.

I just had a look at some Z-Wave motion detection sensor and I soon remembered why I chose ZigBee some years ago: they’re soooo expensive! ZigBee sensors costs half/a forth of the Z-Wave ones!
Why that? Maybe for the more expensive royalty? More expensive components?

Do the ZWave devices act as repeater as the ZigBee do?

Is it? I thought that ZigBee was royalty free and Zwave was not (even because usually ZigBee products costs less than the Zwave ones); is it the other way around?

It’s a buildings automation standard. The products that implement it are usually expensive

I’ll do some testing during the Christmas holiday. Thanks!

What kind of a card do you think that could do the job? There will be 2 maximum 3 people watching Jellyfin.

I’m assuming you’re talking about version 1 of the 2620.

Nope, V2.

Although the xeon is the weaker processor, if you’re planning on having those containers active together the larger thread count will potentially be more beneficial than the faster i7.

This is what I thought, before @poVoq@slrpnk.net pointed me to the quicksync of the i7 (I will have a Jellyfin container).

Also if you do any sort of media processing the 6700k has a gpu and quicksync built in that can speed these things up significantly.

This is a good point that probably will make the decision lean towards the i7, thanks!

So what was the question? It sounds like you already decided.

Why? No, I haven’t decided.

The i7-6700k is faster but it has less cores. The E5-2620 has more cores but the clock speed and memory are much slower.

So for a lot of containers that each do few things, it would be better to have more cores, correct?

I’m assuming the xeon comes with ECC ram?

Yes, it does.

Since you’re just looking to make a router the xeon would be my tentative choice.

No no, it willwork ALSO as router, but it will have about 15/20 Dockers containers.
It’s not that loud, but it will be placed in a dedicated small room under the roof.

Did you do that?
If yes, could you share some info about it?
