Something like this happened to me. Change the static IP (configure your NAS to get its IP from DHCP) and fix the IP on the UniFi UI.

As an immigrant that came to the West Coast I appreciate what you say here as it helps me (us) understand better the reasoning behind the banning of religious symbols in Quebec.

That’s my take too. I use DoH and to work around this I created a hosts file with some archive sites.

High chances you’re using cloudflare dns. Google for cloudflare archive.is to find out more.

Without a doubt, for me it’s Re-animator. This movie also introduced me to HP Lovecraft.

MadAI’s disease.

I guess we didn’t learn when we did it with cows.

Iain Banks. All of his sci-fi books.

I recently saw an article about him on The Guardian that will be more eloquent than I can be.

Just be aware that he wrote both fiction and sci-fi. Iain M Banks is how he signed his sci-if ones.

Have you considered installing Proxmox? That way you can then test as many distros as possible and even play a bit with containers. I configured it recently and I’m having a lot of fun being able to take snapshots and then doing crazy things with an easy way to recover from my failed experiments.

Thanks both for the explanation.

It would be nice to have a page that shows the connection status between servers; I’ll have to look for where to suggest new features, that way people can go to that page to see if something is going on instead of asking like I did.

Growing pains I guess… after a while we’ll be used to this. :)

Another vote for the Sonoff zigbee stick shared earlier. Be aware that there’s two versions (different chips) and I believe the most stable one is the Texas Instruments one so this is what you probably want to get.

I really like my Ikea bulbs and Home Assistant can deal with them in full. Nice things about the bulbs is that they are routers in their mesh network, so as long as I have a bulb close I am able to add zigbee devices.

All my zigbee devices are either Aqara or Ikea and all have been rock solid, the only one that gave me a bit of trouble was an Aqara TVOC Air Quaility sensor which stopped sending data once since I configured it, I updated the firmware and have had no trouble since.
