I’ve been running into issues with trying to post the log file data. There’s something in there that causes the reply button to hang indefinitely.

This is the log file with the Config USB plugged in. This is the config settings I used.

For reference, This is the log file of the installation without the Config USB.

I ended up getting fired for calling out all the sexism, racism, homophobia, favourtism and abusive managers. The then new covid policies ramped up everyone’s negative traits and I couldn’t ignore it any more.

I ended up speaking with the corporate HR about the situation and they made an honest effort to help me but I was fired before I got a chance to speak with a very high up person.

I got a lawyer involved and while not much difference was made after the settlement, I somehow forced the HR manager into early retirement. It amazes me considering my goal was only to get her into a work behavior training course. I never knew such pettiness could accomplish so much.

All my co-workers shat all over my efforts for the 10 months I was engaged with all of that at the workplace. Also received a fair amount of hate from my co-workers after I got fired too which was neat.

I got the information by connecting to http://homeassistant.local:8123/

I get the following screen:

I put the log file here since it comes out as a long run on sentence in lemmy.

I have another SD card with a functioning version of HA OS that’s currently controlling my lights and switches. I don’t remember how I got the internet working with it but I can still connect to http://homeassistant.local:8123/ as well as directly through the wired IP address so I don’t believe the port is damaged. Unfortunately I can’t update it because I get an error about no internet connection. I can still add add-ons and such so It’s a bit confusing to me.

I only have a laptop computer so I don’t actually own a keyboard. I don’t know anyone nearby who I could borrow one from either.

I created the USB drive in Linux, as well as the file and assumed it was okay.

I did this: aa@DellG5:/media/aa/CONFIG/network$ file my-network my-network: ASCII text

I’m not sure if that helps, I just checked from here.

The actual router rented out by the service provider. I don’t think they would be happy with me messing with their property.

I also lived somewhere else where I didn’t have access to the main router so I use the extender as my personal network for file transfers, a few lights with a couple switches and my terrarium thermostat. If anything happens to the main router, I can just turn my extender into an access point and still have my personal network.

TP-Link requires an account to use my own extender which annoys me. Their app redirects my connection to my extender through their cloud service. It’s not my VPN because I can still connect through the browser. Seems shadey and I don’t like having the account already.

Fortunately the ISP provided modem/router has DNS support. I managed to install Adguard as an add-on in Ha OS. I just need to figure out why HA OS refuses to change my IPv4 address to static mode. After that I can change the DNS address and hopefully I can get rid of ads in my house.

So today I learned the difference between an integration and add-on in HA OS. Adguard seems like the most reasonable solution for me.

That makes sense. I guess it’s not necessary for me to put OpenWRT on there. More than anything, I’m just severely annoyed I must log into an online account just to access my WiFi extender’s settings. I can deal with that issue at a later time.

I also use task.org and have found a nice set of customization options that works for me.

Because I’m juggling different tasks with different priorities, I sort by immediacy and importance. Anything time sensitive has dates and alarms attached to it. Any tasks I wish to do currently or the next day is always moved to ‘HighPriority’ including any appointments.

Medium and low priority stuff are things that have distant due dates or no due dates.

I also use colours to visually show priorities I set for the day as well as adding comments to help add any extra context. Keeping titles simple is important for me to keep my data visually accessible.

Most important is that I keep a widget on my home screen so that I always see what my tasks. Any step between seeing my tasks and staying on top of my tasks is a chance for something to be forgotten. It took me nearly half a year to get into the habit of using this app to organize myself but has helped me a lot.

I also have a couple more lists for shopping and repeated reminders to help me stay on track too.

Hopefully this is a good example of how someone can use these tools for themselves.

Reading articles like these really makes me believe I am autistic. Fortunately I have a doctor appointment soon to see about a proper diagnosis.

I was terminated a year ago from my last job for speaking out against the abusive behaviour of management as well as all the hate and bigotry from the tradespeople working on the workshop floor. That didn’t go over well so I went to corporate and was assisting them with an investigation into the abuse at my company. Unfortunately that investigation had to be halted as my company fired me conveniently after I made a call to the employee hotline about all the abusive behaviour. I was advised to call the hotline by corporate so they weren’t too happy with my company. So unhappy that they refused to represent them at the labour board regarding my wrongful termination case.

I think what was interesting about the whole experience was that many of my coworkers could not comprehend that I did all this to help my fellow coworkers. I wanted change so we could all be treated with dignity. Even now with the lawyer involved, they think I’m in it for the payout. I do not care about the money. I want change. I want accountability. Fortunately I have a couple people in my life that understand that and are encouraging me to follow what I think is right. Everyone else thinks I’m an idiot and there are no words to describe how confusing that truly is.
