Not sure why people are saying port forwarding is required. I have no ports forwarded to slskd and people are downloading from me just fine.

Does country matter? I always go for the US ones bc I haven’t been sure.

I think you need to address your 4th bullet point and troubleshoot the buffering. That shouldn’t be happening. Are you streaming from outside your LAN when this happens or does it happen even when inside your LAN?

I am very interested, especially if you can tie in Anna’s Archive. I’ve been looking for something like this.

Only do it if you have, or when you get Matter/Thread devices on your network. IIRC, last time I looked at this it appeared to be much more complicated, required an extra add-on container, and was expiremental, so came with the caveat of ‘things might break on updates’.

Is the pi running home assistant or is it an external pi running Z2M independently? Is it connected to your network via WiFi?

cs.rin.ru?

Can you explain your disclaimer? You suggest not setting your AD domain to a web address you use, like one for self hosted sites? So you buy 2 domains, one for AD and one for sites? Or you use an internal domain for AD?

What about ddns?

Edit: never mind reread your comment and saw the port forwrding caveat. Sorry pal.

It is only leeching.

I made a pressure sensor for my bed with an ESP board, some tinfoil, foam, and cut up Ethernet cord. Here it is talked about on HomeAssistant forums.

If you go this route make sure to read all the comments in this thread. Original uses paper, I used some foam to make the distance between the tinfoil larger. There is also a comment around the 150 comment mark that has some extra settings to put in ESP home regarding voltage. They made a massive difference in false positives, which you really don’t want if you are relying on this for keeping the lights off while you sleep.

You aren’t the only annoyed one!

In 1980, Stallman and some other hackers at the AI Lab were refused access to the source code for the software of a newly installed laser printer, the Xerox 9700. Stallman had modified the software for the Lab’s previous laser printer (the XGP, Xerographic Printer), so it electronically messaged a user when the person’s job was printed, and would message all logged-in users waiting for print jobs if the printer was jammed. Not being able to add these features to the new printer was a major inconvenience, as the printer was on a different floor from most of the users. This experience convinced Stallman of people’s need to be able to freely modify the software they use.
