Setting up TuneBlade for Sonos Airplay 2 player

I had some issues with TuneBlade not locating the speaker.

Here is how I resolved it.

I found the IP and added it with the port 7000.




Also, do note that Tuneblade may display socket issues, if the remote is enabled and the port cannot be used. Just give it a fixed port instead.



It also turned out to be helpful to just run nmap to locate the port:

snap install nmap
nmap 192.168.0.0/24

Ruby weirdness

This week I'm trying to learn some Ruby (I want to use Chef or Puppet) and this caught my attention: " If you happen to define a method in your subclass that has the same name as a private method in the superclass, you will have inadvertently overridden the superclass's internal utility method, and this will almost certainly cause unintended behavior." Reference:  http://rubylearning.com/satishtalim/ruby_access_control.html How can they call it encapsulation and object-oriented design? Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something, but how on earth can this be acceptable. Now you have to look through the super class source every time it gets updated to make sure there are no conflicts with THE PRIVATE methods. Or you have to get rid of private methods for super classes and separate them into helper classes instead. Hopefully everyone will forget about inheritance and use composition instead :-)

Installing pikvm on raspberry pi zero 2 w

Image
It turns out that Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is an excellent platform for PiKVM in the wild. Given the right components, you can just plug in HDMI and USB into a target device, and you will be able to remotely view and control the device through a web interface. No need for external power! Components to buy: - HDMI to CSI-2 (i used the model from Geekworm with SKU: 100202, but site refers to https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000102166176.html - perhaps it's the same) - microSDXC card (i used SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I Card 128GB) The HDMI to CSI-2 contained both a printboard with HDMI slot as well as a cable. Follow the steps: 1. Download https://pikvm.org/download/ , select the version named "Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, v2 platform" 2. Follow the steps at https://docs.pikvm.org/flashing_os/ Which for my setup amounts to: 2.1 Download RPi Imager 2.2 Choose Custom image at the button 3. Then follow the steps here for adding a  3.1 Unplug the SD-card and put it back in. 3.2 Add a f
