• DIY Smart Doorbell for just $2, no soldering required

  Amcrest AD110 doorbell connected to a recycled HP mini-PC (can be had cheaply on Amazon) running Frigate (https://frigate.video/) with a Google Coral accelerator installed in one of the internal slots. The Amcrest doorbell does have a cloud video connection if you want, but I firewalled it off from the internet and use the local RTSP streaming over to Frigate. Frigate talks to my local Home Assistant install too... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Security cams

  Frigate https://frigate.video/ and ZoneMinder https://zoneminder.com/ come to mind. Blue Iris https://blueirissoftware.com/ is not open source but is what I prefer to use for my PoE systems ($80/yr). Source: 7 months ago

• Ask HN: How have you engineered the shit out of your home's front entrance?

  Engineering implies working within constraints. Most people in this realm only have to deal with the spouse acceptance factor as a limiter. Went from openhab -> homeassistant -> Node-RED. Then sprinkle in MySensors, Frigate, and Double-Take, but not on just the entrance, go for the perimeter then defense in depth. https://www.mysensors.org/ https://frigate.video/ - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Show HN: I built a website to share files and messages without any server

  I've got another one on topic of self-hosted file sharing: - FileBrowser running in Docker (https://filebrowser.org/features) - Syncthing running in another container (https://syncthing.net/) Syncthing keeps the files on your PC, Mac, BSD systems updated, and FileBrowser can point to the share and supply a convenient web UI. It works for me, it's kind of like a local Dropbox-lite. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Ask HN: Online File Repository System?

  Depending on what you're looking for, this is the kind of thing that P2P protocols were made for. Check out https://syncthing.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Ask HN: Best useful tools that are helpful in your business?

  We use syncthing to share files between our machines. It avoids is having to use dropbox / OneDrive etc. You just choose a folder and it automatically syncs it in the background. https://syncthing.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
