I have just renewed my Virgin Media contract and they sent me a new Hub 5 as part of the deal.
My old hub was in modem only mode, so I thought it would be easy to swap them out.
However, my router was failing to connect to it, saying “Not connected”. I tried many times but I could just not get it working. I could connect to the internet directly from the hub, but not via the router. I found a note about the 5x hub (which mine isn’t) that suggested taking the hub out of modem only mode and in the settings disabling UPNP, DMZ and DHCP, before switching back to modem mode.
I followed these instructions and sure enough, when I switched back to modem only mode my router connected immediately.
Sigh.
I’ve written a 5 day blood pressure record form for my father. The one that was provided by the doctor wasn’t very intuitive.

I had a camera “front”.
I renamed it in the config to “front1” and added another camera called “front2”.
Once I was happy with my new higher resolution camera, I removed the old one and went back to just one camera in the config called “front”. I think that this caused all my recordings to disappear from disk.
However, the Frigate database seemed to think that they were still there. Deleting them all manually is somewhat tedious (especially because I had 29k of them!). So, I decided to delete them from the sqlite database with a command.
First I installed a sqlite client:
sudo apt install sqlite3
Then I worked out the date timestamp value that I needed by visiting Epoch Converter and picking the date time that I know I made a mess.
Yr Mon Day Hr Min Sec
2023- 6- 29 21 : 0 : 0 GMT
Human date to Timestamp
Epoch timestamp: 1688072400
Timestamp in milliseconds: 1688072400000
Date and time (GMT): Thursday, 29 June 2023 21:00:00
Date and time (your time zone): Thursday, 29 June 2023 22:00:00 GMT+01:00
I then copied the Timestamp in milliseconds into my delete command
$ sudo sqlite3 frigate.db
SQLite version 3.34.1 2021-01-20 14:10:07
Enter “.help” for usage hints.
sqlite> delete from event where start_time <= 1688072400; sqlite> .q
It took a few seconds, but dropped my events from 29k to 71.
Scam video on YouTube advertising AMZ coin-
There’s a video channel @CoinmarketcapEN which has 1M followers, but looks like it’s just a hijacked channel that has been rebranded to look like @CoinMarketCapOfficial.
They have 1 video, but their main page is full of playlists from the official channel, which helps to make it look legit.
Edit: New channel called “Coinmarketdaily” is doing the exact same thing
My attention was drawn to it watching financial videos and seeing comments mentioning first of these strings : , obviously they will switch to the 2nd, 3rd at some point in the future.

I was having a mare trying to get scanning working on my USB HP Deskjet 2050.
Even though some of these settings are listed as defaults, it produces rubbish.
So I thought that I would document a working command!
Obviously you need to install the scan utilites
matt@server:~$ sudo apt install sane
Then list the devices:
matt@server:~$ scanimage -L device `hpaio:/usb/Deskjet_2050_J510_series?serial=XXXXXXXXXX' is a Hewlett-Packard Deskjet_2050_J510_series all-in-one
And use the output from above to specify the device:
scanimage -d "hpaio:/usb/Deskjet_2050_J510_series?serial=XXXXXXXXXX" --mode Color --resolution 200 --brightness 1000 --contrast 1000 -o scan9.jpg
It wasn’t working for me, no matter what I tried.
The command
fail2ban-regex /var/log/auth.log /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/sshd.conf
was showing matches successfully.
In the end I ran these commands… I’m fairly sure it was just the RepeatedMsgReduction setting to off that fixed it though
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/London /etc/localtime
vim /etc/rsyslog.conf
#Change this line of "off" so we can see all messages
$RepeatedMsgReduction off
Then
service rsyslog restart
You sent money from Binance to another wallet, but chose the wrong network.
There are many options when transferring money around wallets and it’s quite tempting to choose the cheapest option, but that isn’t always right. This example is where someone sent some USDT from their Binance wallet to what they thought was their USDT Wallet using the Blockchain app. The user sent the money using Binance Smart Chain (BSC), but Blockchain.com do not support BSC.
LUCKILY, the Blockchain app allows you to view your private keys and even more luckily BSC is just a copy of ETH, so those private keys can be imported into a wallet that does support BSC.
This is a lot of messing around, so make sure that you meet the recovery criteria before messing around.
You MUST meet both these conditions:
Warning: Never give your private keys to anyone. Do not email them. Do not store them unencrypted on the internet.
Examples of wallets where you can get to your private keys.
For Exodus wallet view this article
You can install this as a browser plug-in or Mobile app for Apple or Android
Go through the set-up procedure, secure your recovery key and maybe view the tutorial. Note that the recovery key is only for the new wallet that Metamask creates for you when you install the app.
When viewing your wallet, click/press the circle above “Account 1” that looks like it could be a profile picture. Choose “Import an Account” and paste your private key from Step 2 into it and then click “IMPORT”.
Press/click the menu button on the top left, press Settings, scroll down and pick “Networks”, choose “Add Network” and enter the following:
Network Name: Binance Smart Chain New RPC URL: https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/ ChainID: 56 Symbol: BNB Block Explorer URL: https://bscscan.com
Then click Add.
Note: To switch between Ethereum Network and Binance Smart Chain – just click the top of the app, where it says “Wallet”, you might need to scroll down to see the Binance Smart Chain.
Make sure that you are now using the right Network and the imported wallet (Account 2)
Click/press the very top of the Metamask app where it says “Wallet Ethereum Main Network”. Scroll down and choose “Binance Smart Chain”
Click the menu button on the top left and click on “Account 1” and choose “Account 2”.
At the bottom of the Metamask wallet, click “+ADD TOKENS”. Search for the token that you are missing (eg. USDT) and then click “ADD TOKEN”.
You might need to restart Metamask in order to see your balance.
There are a number of ways to do this, but the easiest is to send it back to Binance. In Binance, when you look for your Deposit address, make sure that you pick BEP20 (BSC).
After you have done this, send it to the right place using the network that BOTH wallets support.
NOTE: this was quite complicated to work out, so if this helps you and you would like to send me a tip my wallets are:
BTC
1Gxjf2crehcSDRQh4dUkGD4wcg8AartTqm
ETH (ERC20 or BEP20)
0x4471e4ab83069fd926ba418a1731766b4699e313
BNB (BEP2)

Only put in money that you can afford to lose completely. Crypto currencies are relatively new and a simple legislation change could make the price halve in a matter of minutes, an exchange could be hacked, or the exchange owner might disappear with all the assets.
The below are referral links that might give me a small tip or even both of us free BTC when you get around to depositing.
Binance is the main one that I use, and it is by far the cheapest. Customer service is hard to get hold of if you have a problem.
Coinbase is probably the easiest exchange to use, but has high fees, a poor selection of coins to invest in and the spread (difference between buying and selling) is very wide.
Kucoin is another alternative that has a diverse range of investment options.
Poloniex is a good alternative with a clean look about it.
It’s all good signing up, and they might even let you deposit, but the exchange might not let you withdraw until you have provided your ID.
Ensure that you set up 2 Factor Authentication, which is usually done using the Google Authenticator application. Make sure you write down your recovery code and keep it somewhere very safe. What you put into your account now might seem like not much, but in 5 years you might be crying if you cannot login.
It might be tempting to just go for the easy option of buying crypto with a card, but this simple option comes with a 2% fee.
A Faster Payments deposit is free, perhaps send a smaller amount on your first transfer, and then a spot trade has 0.1% fee.
On the Binance menu, choose Trade > Convert, pick GBP from the top one, use half of what you have put in. Not putting all your eggs in one basket is a good idea. That goes for Exchanges too.
Waiting can yield some impressive gains, so do it.
Warning: If it is just your coin that is plummeting you need to question whether this is a dip or a bad investment.
When there is a large dip, it’s time to spend some of that money that you have been holding back. Use 10% of what you have left every time there’s a strong dip. If it keeps going down, wait a week and buy some more! If you run out of money, you are back to step 5.
I have about 50% Bitcoin (BTC), 25% Ethereum (ETH) and then lots of other “gambles” on smaller coins either because I like the prospects, or because there is a current buzz (but get out quick on these).
On my smaller coins, I tend to sell 50% of a coin when the price doubles. I like having the feeling that I’ve effectively got them for free.
After 1 month of my initial investment I was more than 50% down. This lasted a long time and I stopped looking at it. 2 years later my investment was 2x. Another year and it was over 5x (before the crash in 2017). In Feb 2021, I withdrew 3x what I had invested over the years and still have well over 10x what I invested.
