Have two Reolink doorbells in cart, battery powered and wifi (not ideal, but easy), thinking I’ll just add old HD to my router to use for recordings, and/or SD card.

For sure, that would be something just for fun, not main usage.

Nice, checked them out, look like really nice cams, leaning towards battery doorbells to not have to deal with any wiring. Would love to have PoE, but sounds like a lot of work!

Nice, use HA as well, leaning about 99% towards just getting a couple of their doorbell cams, one for each door, and calling it good.

Right on, never heard of it, will check it out for sure…thanks!

Have seen some camera projects with Pis that look fun, would def like to try some one day.

Really? Sorry, didn’t see any others going back weeks, you have a link to another I could check out?

Thanks, never heard of it, do have an old Wyze cam or two lying around too.

Thanks, looks cool, frigate certainly seems the way to go.

Nice, had heard the name, but looking at their site, didn’t realize they had so many options, and no cloud requirement! Awesome, looking like the likely option, thanks!

Noted, good point, thanks!

You’ll likely be amazed at how well it works, I’d take a 10 year old laptop with Debian+KDE over a brand new laptop with Win11, and it’s not close.

No, I guess I don’t, what did you mean by America has bought out cybertrucks, other than what the words mean?

America has bought out cybertrucks? Nope, not even close. Dunno about switches, but since I’ve recently seen them on shelves, guessing those haven’t been bought out either though.

Its a single country that still buys out all Nintendo switches and cyrbertrucks

The conjecture here is just mind bogglingly stupid

Ha, rich

My first thought as well, not sure how that would work, can see neither side of paddle can reach water, unless he squat-paddles or something?

Is that supposed to be Ed Norton, or just an uncanny coincidence?

Well, that ending might lead one to believe there’s maybe a smidge of insanity.

Yep, it’s quickly becoming absolute garbage, I hate it more every day. Getting home back on Linux feels so much better.

Ha, yeah my Outlook will randomly just not be able to connect to server when starting up. This is from fresh boot every day, some days it just can’t, have to reboot and then it works! Fucking brilliant, they managed to break email.
