The content of the video was outstandingly disappointing.
I'm subscribed to this guy and don't watch him much because he's generally overly negative, somehow even when talking about things that deserve negative feedback.
I'm glad it seems like we are all on the same page, to the point that I don't feel the need to list out any of the problems.
I would love a critical look a solarpunk, especially the gap between the execution and theory, but I'm unable to find a single argument in this video thats worth discussing.
I thought the post was junk but it seems true https://hackaday.com/2016/10/12/become-very-unpopular-very-fast-with-this-diy-emp-generator/
I haven't used Frigate specifically, but Reolink overall has been exactly what I wanted. Works out of the box no config, no signup, no login, completely local with the mobile reolink app. I never connected it to home assistant or anything, I either use a VPN into my home network or just stick to using it locally.
I did have an occasional bug with the UI/connection. The iOS app gave me some trouble, but I use android and its been plug and play with all the main features I would want.
