Repurposing Old Smartphones for Home Automation | Linux.com | The source for Linux information
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/08/23
At the recent Embedded Linux Conference and OpenIoT Summit, Mozilla Technical Evangelist Dietrich Ayala proposed a simple and affordable solution to home automation: A discarded smartphone can handle some of the most useful home automation tasks without requiring expensive hubs and sensors — or risking data security in the cloud.
I’ve been awaiting talks like this for years basically because I didn’t take the time to try myself.

Posted by jpluimers on 2017/08/21
‘Volgens mij gaat het niet om gebrek aan aanbod, maar om gebrek aan kénnis van het aanbod in Nieuw-West,’ schrijft Liesbeth van der Woud in een lezersbrief aan Het Parool.
Ze heeft helemaal gelijk: [WayBack] ‘Nieuw-West heeft veel te bieden voor herhaalbezoekers’ – Opinie – PAROOL

Cool pictures and ditto rig via:

- OK, this is going to sound tabloid, but I would never have believed what rig that photographer used. It just goes to show that being pragmatic gets you a long way :) It looks like a heavily modified sack trolley.

Some notes on Google Nest before getting it to control a Remeha Avanta 35c modulating heater
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/06/30
For my own reference:
- It looks like the Nest needs to communicate wirelessly with the Heatlink in order to support OpenTherm. I can’t find what frequency or protocol the Nest/Heatlink connection uses.

But lots of people still report overshoots in temperatures. - Nest Learning Thermostat V3 – Prijzen – Tweakers
- Wat is de Heat Link?
- Hoe communiceren de Heat Link en de Nest Thermostat met elkaar?
- Nest Introduces Nest Weave, Creating Most Comprehensive Developer Platform for the Home | Nest
- Nest devices interconnect with each other using a protocol called Weave, which is based on IEEE 802.15.4 and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n.[30] which seems to indicate it operates mostly on 2.4Ghz (which is distorted when neighbours use their Microwave to heat food).

Repair a Broken Ethernet Plug – All
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/06/09
The locking tab of RJ45 plugs breaks very easily. Replace it by two nylon cable ties (aka zip ties), in minutes. IMPORTANT NOTES: – This must be regarded as a temporary “Mac Gyver” solution, for home usage. – Definitely not for IT staff! (no crimper? asking for one in the budget won’t get you fired!) – Before the tab breaks, consider protecting the plug.
