So we have an opossum up there. So sad he has to go cause he's fuckin cute. He couldn't figure out how to get to the food in the trap, so he curled up next to it and went to sleep for a little while.

opossums are tick and flea vacuums, and both ticks and fleas dont live on them (at least not without getting eaten). So thats not likely the source of any other insects in the houseSo we have an opossum up there. So sad he has to go cause he's fuckin cute.

Theyre good critters to have around, just not in your attic

Ours sometimes eats the cat food, which is mostly fine. Its the fucking racoons that suck.

Theyre greedy little bastards and theyll bring their entire extended family with them to raid whatever they can find
I run it as a VM and use their provided appliance. Back when I did it, I seem to recall there was some issue with the Unraid community app(s) install. Maybe folks weren't updating it in a timely manner? Not sure.
10-4. Im getting tired of their "supervised installs must run nothing else" BS. the latest update locked me out of installing new addons, updating them, or updating core because i had another docker container present on the same debian install. Wasnt even running, just present.
but I do like the superviser addons features, i dont know that I could give that up. So that leaves me with HASSos
But its a pain in the ass, cause I want to pass my iGPU to both frigate and plex/jellyfin/etc, and if i have to put them in different VMs/containers then PCI passthrough gets stupid.
Goddamnit.

yes... I believe that to be accurate. So if i went unraid, I could pass it to all the docker containers, but HA would have to live in a VM, and I couldnt pass it to both the containers on the host, and the VM guest. The only reason however I would need to pass it to the HA guest would be to support the frigate HA addon.
It looks like blakeblackshear thought of this, and allows you to use a small HA "Frigate proxy" addon, that points to an external docker container and also maintain the ingress and HA integration
Yeah, you can run Frigate in docker and just point HA to it. I mean, supposedly you can. I tried a few months back but couldn't get shit working. However, I have about zero knowledge about Frigate so it was almost certainly 100% my fault.

So I picked up more kilns today. These are gonna be for the wife to use, she wants to get back into glass work stuff. For glass we're going to have to setup a feedback circuit that gets the internal temp from the kiln in order to control temp, and allow it to ramp down from X to Y and hold, then ramp from Y to Z and hold, then shut off.
The only control on these things right now is what the kiln guy called "an infinite switch" which appears to just let you set the amperage through the coils then does your basic bang-bang control through bimetallic strips.
Depending on what is easiest, I'd like to be able to get rid of the infinite switch and just hook up a PD or PID controller and let it hum along.
I can source the pyrometer through my guys at school, but do you have any ideas of what I should be looking for in regards to the controller? I've got half a dozen of these little bastards, all 120V, so I'd like to find something that is relatively cheap.

@wetwille is perhaps actually an expert in this area
