I have a trailer (workshop) with solar power, batteries, a raspberry pi controlling everything and a cellular hot spot. It pumps all the solar, battery information and light controls over MQTT and home assistant over cellular. So yes its possible, what do you want to do?

czardestructo@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•am i insane? is this common with women who just have hormonal problems?81·8 days agoI’m not a doctor and a dude, just speaking from personal experiences and shared stories, but are you on birth control? Birth control pills made my wife emotionally unstable when she was PMSing and finally she had enough and stopped taking them. It was a night and day difference and she hasn’t taken them since. Just food for thought.

czardestructo@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Have Americans always been this stupid?7·20 days agoThis comment hits hard. There are a lot of ignorant people in my life that spout idiotic stuff and I brush it off, I disengage. I could take the time to listen, converse and correct but I don’t. I disengage, I brush it off as just “Oh boy, there goes crazy Joe rambling again! But generally he’s a good guy so I’ll tolerate it”. I need to start taking the time to push back and correct people I care about so they understand people are judging them when stupid things are said. Thank you!

I’m moving next week into a new home and the previous owner left this monitor with the computer in the attic. It was going to be a winter project to get it all operating, and I’m an electrical engineer with plenty of equipment. Thanks for the video, now I have a north star!

czardestructo@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Stability problems with a Raspberry Pi ZeroW22·1 month agoI’ve owned and deployed a lot of pi, every model, and in my experience when I have similar instability as you described its related to the sdcard. Either the sdcard itself or the tray soldered to the pi. I had one pi that would corrupt the sdcard without fail after 2 months and I played with bending the sdcard metal tray inward a little to help press the card better into the contacts and the problem went away. Try fiddling with the sdcard holder or different sdcards.
Are those old ISA sound blasters worth much? I think I have a few in the basement…
