Right, but the opener is already there and installed. Plus, it does give you all the information and control over that interface. Buying a ratgdo for $30 and adding it into your Liftmaster opener is still a better situation than a dumb opener and a dumb switch. The dumb switch doesn't give you open/closed/stopped status, lights, etc.

If I were to buy a new opener, I would probably get a liftmaster + ratgdo again anyway

What I can't figure out now is if I want to replace OpenGarage when my Ratgdo arrives. It has a lot more features, but do I care now I have OpenGarage setup? Unsure

Hopefully this fits here? Its self hosted, but not quite what the usual self hosted post would be. I've not seen any real reviews of these, so I figured I'd post

Last time I posted a full writeup on my lab (The before before this) there was a lot of questions on what exactly I was running at home. So here is a full writeup on everything I am running, and how you can run it too

I use O365 Business (Or whatever the heck they call it now) for my email, so for SMTP on all my devices at home, I use an O365 account with an app password, sending as a distro-group so it can have a custom name

This works, but I don't like how every device/server has O365 creds in it. I am thinking I should setup an SMTP Relay at home locally, which sends to O365 (Or Sendgrid, etc etc) and then SMTP on local services can just point to that local address

Is this the right way to go about it? What is the current best software do it? I've only ever had experience using IIS to do this, and of course I don't want to be running windows!

I have 2 x TrueNAS boxes, and because I am doing replication between them, I need to keep the UID's and GID's the same between them for accounts that are needed on both ends

This leads to a situation where I must great all accounts on both sides, which gets a bit annoying.

There is also situations where I need to update accounts, like my wifes account, but she has no access to TrueNAS, so I need to get to her type her password in, twice. A bit annoying

I'd love a way to have a central account repository with a self serve password changing UI so people can change their password, and have it all sync between TrueNAS. Ideally the accounts would stay on TrueNAS, so if the SSO solution dies, all the accounts stay

Does this exist?

$70/mo for the AT&T Fiber, and $50/mo for the Verizon 5G

200 up isn't too bad, nothing to really cry over. My old connection at my last place was 1000/30! What a joke

  1. Its cool. Imagine being able to get data from 12 satellites at the same time to get super accurate time, with a $10 GPS board. What a time to be alive!
  2. I'm trying to reduce the amount of stuff I'm relying on the internet for. Time is pretty important, and having a local server solves all that.

I'm too ugly for plastic surgery

Honestly its all cheaper than you think, 100% of it I bought used bar a few things, and over a long amount of time too. Plus messing with stuff like this has 100% helped me advance my career

Funny you think I'm pro, I just like blinky lights!

The grid both is and isn't unreliable. I've not had many random outages, but I have had 2 x day long outages on hot Friday's when they were replacing power poles, which the generator of course kept me through. Working from home, and being in the Texas heat, that would be bad. And I like many people now have really bad power outage PTSD after the 2021 Texas Freeze where we all lost power. I'll never let that happen again! And turning everything off is such a hassle, I want it to to all stay on no matter what. Since I work from home, that adds another layer too. Plus, I just like cool things

I am in the US and I do... In fact, I can upgrade to symmetrical 5Gb now with AT&T

Hopefully this is not too long! There has been a lot of changes since the last time I posted a full overview like this

Check out the Lenovo Tiny’s, can get them used on eBay for quite cheap. I’m running a M720q with 64GB of RAM, an in i7-8700T, with Dual 10GB NIC’s. Uses hardly any power!

Well, that didn’t take very long at all! As with almost everything, the cloud seems appealing, and then slowly increased in price while the service gets reduced
