It analyses your shit and cross checks against the Bristol stool chart.

This is a guide for getting the rstp back for some of the wyse cameras. I haven’t used it myself https://houndhillhomestead.com/using-wyze-cam-v3s-with-frigate/. Someone else recommended thingno which I have read works but also haven’t tried.

One of the reasons wifi is discouraged is for anyone who lives in an apartments or even units, the wifi channels often very crowded. If you live in your own house it’s less of an issue but they still generate continual traffic. Having to punch through a few walls, as they will probably have to do if you are sitting them up outside, will have an effect too. As will the weather.

There are many tricks to running cable between floors. If you have down lights you can pop them out then use a bit of yellow tongue to poke between the holes, running the cable from light to light. most modern houses use pozi trusses for floor support and they have many openings for running services.

Or if you own the house just cut a few holes in the plaster. Patching and painting one ceiling not that big of a job and you’ll be able to use the same cameras for years and years instead of replacing when the battery dies.

If you get a PoE switch many cameras are designed to be run off of the power it can supply over an Ethernet cable. So you just have to run the Ethernet cable (pretty easy).

Also you can get splitters that will break that PoE cable into one Ethernet and a 12v barrel jack for cameras that are not designed to use PoE directly.

I can’t stress enough how much better a direct connection is than wifi, but understand that sometimes it is the only option.

Other benefits include simply unplugging the camera from the switch if it freezes up as this effectively switches it off (this can be done remotely if you have a managed switch.) and obviously higher quality, more stable streams.

Have a look through the frigate documentation before buying a device to run it. It needs some kind of gpu to process the frames for object identification. The most economical one in my opinion is a something intel 8th gen or higher like a hp elite desk mini pc that has a 2.5in sata slot with the igpu and ideally a proper spinning hdd for the recording as it is constantly being written to and an ssd will burn out faster.

If you want a local camera system you need a NVR (Networked Video Recorder). These have Ethernet ports and’s you connect security cameras to them over Ethernet, they record, store and allow you to view the footage.

A DVR does the same thing but will use a video signal to record, maybe coax or component. These are getting a bit old and also have lower limits on how far the video signal can travel than an NVR but work and are cheaper, many offer network access to view the cameras and recordings.

If you are looking at budget options you can use the software FrigateNVR. It is an open source NVR software designed to work with any camera that uses standard protocols (and many that don’t thanks to the active community). Including wireless cameras although everyone in the community recommends avoiding wireless cameras unless have no other options.

You will be able to use your wyze cameras will frigate.

Almost all IP Cameras, especially the cheap one are considered compromised and open to easy hacking. It is important to isolate them on their own VLAN, if you really care about privacy so they can only talk to your NVR.

It is important to remember security cameras are cameras and need light to perform, especially in the dark. If you need a camera to perform in no light situations you either rely on its own lights which will illuminate maybe 5-10m, and external light source like a flood light or you have a larger camera sensor that can drink in the ambient light for decent quality (this last option will only come from a camera that costs 200-300USD.

A cheap 4k (8mp) camera will perform worse in low light than a cheap 6mp as they often have the same size sensor.

Phew, luckily I was a crossfit, Linux using, raspberry pi owning vegetarian. And I made sure everyone knew it so I wasn’t associated with those crossfit, Linux using, raspberrypi owning vegans!

At least we know why he did it

Look, I’m not going to lie to you.

I coughed up the $7 for an extra month. it all seems to be there.

hot dangit you are correct. I read somewhere when searching that they trash it pretty quickly.

Literally pick up your phone once a week and call one of your friends just to see how they are going. Maybe ask them to catch up.

Maybe they’ll think it’s a bit odd to actually use the phone for talk but it is 100% better than messaging or swapping memes. And they’ll get use to it and you’ll be able to call them up for years to come and maybe they’ll call you.

Also beware of what “everyone” seems to be doing. Those that use ai or have relationships with ai are often posting or taking about. Most people aren’t getting too involved with ai and just don’t talk about itit.

There are heaps of better options.

If you work out how to get your friends and family to use any of them, please let me know.

Let’s them funnel some of that made up ai bubble money into the space race.

They have probably realised (or always knew) that ai wasn’t going to really make them the quadrillions they need to fill the hole in their soul.

They’d much rather be first in line when the solar landgrab begins

Of course not when Organic stupidity can be locally sourced anywhere.
