Re: [Dorset] Next Meeting - Tonight at 8pm

2023-12-05 Thread Peter Merchant

Not going to make it, running way behind on jobs.   Two questions I was going 
to ask about:

1] anybody heard of this company 'Strong'? 
https://www.currys.co.uk/products/strong-atria-mesh-kit-1200-uk-whole-home-wifi-system-triple-pack-10247033.html

2] Smart meters. I always keep refusing them because EON insists that I move to 
SEG (Smart Export Guarantee)  but I think having been looking it up that SEG 
only replaces the 'Deemed Export' part of my Feed In Tariff and I still have to 
send in my Generated Value to the company that processes it. (Good Energy).   
So after I get a smart meter I still get the FIT payment and also a SEG 
payment. Is that correct?  I had thought that SEG replaced everything.

Have a good evening.
Peter

Hi,

I have something else to attend as well, so I will be joining the LUG a little 
later at around 8:30.

As I preciously mentioned, someone with a Google, GitHub, or Facebook account 
will need to set up the call.

Hi,

It's looking unlikely I'll make it tonight.  Possibly because I'm not
much of a clock watcher and my day hasn't recently, bizarrely jumped
forwards an hour.  Still, that's another heart attack avoided.

There were a couple of interesting things I was going to point out.
Both Raspberry Pi related.

An interesting use of an RP2040 to monitor the GameBoy's bus to ship its
own version of what should be on the screen as a USB video-class device.
It emulates the instructions it can see the CPU fetching from the game
cartridge.  http://oughta.be/a/game-boy-capture-cartridge

Turn a Pi Zero 2 W and one of their nifty new cameras into a USB OTG
web cam.
https://www.raspberrypi.com/tutorials/plug-and-play-raspberry-pi-usb-webcam/

I might pop in very late, but it will probably all be over by then.

OK.  Thanks for letting us know.

The last time I went to Northampton (two weeks ago) I intended to return 
cross-country via Andover.  This has multiple benefits for me; it's 
shorter, the road speeds are lower (and so doesn't hammer the battery in 
my Leaf), plus there are several new chargers around Andover.  It also 
misses the horrendous roadworks on the M3.  The only problem is that I 
got about halfway down the A343 (Newbury to Andover) and the road was 
closed.  I had 20 miles left in the battery with 10 miles to go and had 
to return the A34 which left me with approx 15 miles in the battery with 
25 miles to go to Andover via the A303.  As a result, I was forced to 
carry on to the nearest rapid charger on the A34 and rolled in with 7 
miles left.


Then I had go through the horrendous roadworks on the M3.

Off to CH next Wednesday so got to get the car cleaned and sorted 
ready to pack next Tuesday: back late May so will miss that meeting as 
well.

Have a good time.

All,

The next Online Meeting is tonight at 8 pm using Jitsi.

Simply click on the following link and you will be taken to the Meeting
using your default browser:

https://meet.jit.si/dorset-lug

Chrome or Chromium are probably better than Firefox for using Jitsi.  An
alternative to installing one of those two is to obtain it bundled 
especially

for Jitsi from:

https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet-electron/releases

This should be as simple as

    wget -qhttps://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet-electron/releases/latest/
download/jitsi-meet-x86_64.AppImage
    chmod +x jitsi-meet-x86_64.AppImage
