Yeah we try to do the same, only eat required vitamins. We also eat magnesium, zinc, and fish oil.

Yeah, saw them, but that's over budget unfortunately. Thanks.

True, but absolutely pointless to discuss as we can't change the past. Time to act is now.

Google Search Really Has Gotten Worse, Researchers Find in c/technology@lemmy.world

I haven't done extensive research, but as it's a paid product, they have the user's interest in mind, instead of ad revenue.

I switched to DDG and then to Kagi based on all the praise it gets here. So much better than Google!

Thanks! Very helpful. Will give it some thoughts.

Second vote for Kagi. I've read so many good stories about it here, so gave it a try. First time didn't really like it, but gave it a second try, and now am paying user. Not for everyone, the Mrs doesn't like it.

Thanks for the insights. I'm planning to import about 1.2Tb of photos... So RAM is most important? What about Intel gen? I've compared 4th and 8th gen in terms of cpu speed and 4th still scores well. Depends of course on exact cpu. 4th gen can be bought here for about a 5th of the price of an 8th...

That would be awesome. Ford Ranger has been #1 here for years in NZ.

Bug in Stremio? Missing episodes and no streams found (lemmy.nz)
 

I'm loving Stremio so far, but having bad luck with the TV show Only Murders in the Building. It's a fairly recent show. However, it doesn't show any episode information for season one and two on Android. On Google TV it does show the episodes but getting No Streams Found for every episode. I could easily found it on usenet so guess it's a bug with this show? Or do I need to add more providers? I've got Torrentio with Realdebrid configured and all other shows and movies seem to work fine.

Why does my sonoff temp sensor I've out outside go offline? (lemmy.nz)
 

I've got multiple sonoff zigbee temp sensors, all working well, except one I've put outside. Another one I've got inside is just 2m next to it, so don't think it's range. There are two zigbee plugs nearby to serve as ap.

It's winter here in NZ so perhaps it's too cold or humid? Or is it the double glazing / insolation?

Looking for replacement of my Vero 4K => Google TV 4K? (lemmy.nz)
 

I've got a Vero 4K to watch photos stored on my NAS. It is a couple of years old and it seems to be dying.

My requirements are:

  • Watch videos stored on NAS via NFS/SMB
  • Install Stremio
  • 4K
  • Available in NZ
  • Sound doesn't matter too much as I have a simple sound bar.

The Google TV 4K is sold here for NZ$79 and gets raving reviews. It seems I can install Stremio and VLC or Kodi, so that should meet my requirements.

The alternative is a Xiami TV Stick 4K which is NZ$69

I know the NVidia Shield is the best, but they are above budget.

Probably my only concern with these dongles is that they are WiFi based, but I have a very solid WiFi network with an Ubiquiti access point, so that should be fine.

So I'm leaning towards the Google TV 4K, any concerns or considerations?

Kodi / osmc - one TV show not detected properly (lemmy.nz)

This tv show is showing as empty in my Vero (running OSMC / Kodi) https://thetvdb.com/series/race-across-the-world#seasons I have to go to Videos - >Files to see it. It's showing as empty under TV Shows.

I'm using my standard *arr setup so the naming is standard. It's working fine for all other shows.

The only thing I can think of is that the seasons have a unique name, like it contains Latin America?

Do you know what Valetudo is? I've just found out about it in my search for a robot vacuum. I love the concept but I'm taken back by the complicated installation (lemmy.nz)
 

I'm looking for a robo vacuum that integrates nicely with home assistant, and ideally no cloud dependency. I don't want to buy such an expensive device that doesn't work when the manufacturer goes out of business or the Internet is down.

Valetudo seems to be the only option. However, even the so called easy installation involves many steps. I'm technically pretty capable as I work in IT, but I'm reluctant to possible brick a device worth hundreds of dollars. FYI more info here https://valetudo.cloud/pages/general/getting-started.html

Would someone be able to assist? Or know a company that provides this service? I'm based in Wellington.
