Absolutely! What a wonderful game.

I’ve had three Yale deadbolts for 6+ years and I’ve never had an issue to where I wished they had a keyway. I love them.

That’s not “Windscribe as my VPN”, it’s a VPN to Windscribe’s servers.

You want to setup a VPN to your home network. This is one option: https://tailscale.com/

Port your number to Google voice. Their spam blocking is great. That and/or get a Pixel. TBH I’m not exactly sure which one is blocking spam calls but I haven’t gotten one in years. I only use Google voice for texting though, so that would have to be blocking spam texts.

That’s a fantastic graph!

Oh that’s such an awesome graph!

Could you make a VPN between the two sites and put them in the same network? Then maybe you could separate them in the UI into different views?

Yes!! I can SSH into mine! Just fuggin wild that they run Ubuntu =⁠-D

+1 for Valetudo! I’ve installed it once via OTA and twice by FEL. The OTA was obviously a breeze, but FEL wasn’t that bad. I just watched videos on YouTube for the disassembly and took my time doing each step. I love the UI and the fact that I can SSH into them just for the sheer coolness of it! I think one great thing about it is that it doesn’t affect the software that the robot uses for all its tasks and functions (e.g. vacuuming, mopping, sensors), just that it replaced the cloud and runs it on device.

Same. Haven’t had any issues with it.

I’ve found this page to be super helpful over the years:

The Valetudo UART docs sound pretty easy and it’s description of the W10 disassembly is cake. That being said, I don’t have any experience with any of that. I just did Valetudo on a roborock S7 and a gen1 Xiaomi. The gen 1 was OTA and super easy. The S7 was challenging because of the disassembly and grounding, but I was able to complete it successfully. I’m very happy I did. Good luck!
