Corporations need consumers (constant growth model). Military needs more living soldiers.

Flooding the batteries with water is the best way to put out a lithium-ion battery fire.

You're wrong. As a New Zealander (where our conservative government bent the rules to make him a citizen), I can only emphasize how strongly I will care if that giant piece of shit moves to reside in my nation. I'm not negating your point (I upvoted you) and I don't blame you for wanting to lose him, but just because you shovel your shit elsewhere doesn't mean it don't stink.

I'm running six Shelly Plug S and all working well with Home Assistant, but I could definitely play a bit more with the data it's drawing from them. Only issue to date was that I bought a new clothes iron and it would trip the plug as it was over the 2.5 kW the plug is rated for, might just be something to keep in mind. The in-wall relays may go higher, I'm not sure.

I'm not against it but I upvoted you because I think you have a fair position and expressed it honestly and in a completely reasonable way.

The emergency generator for all vessels is typically tiny compared to the standard generators (of which you have multiple, maybe 4 on this ship).

It's basically just there to keep the emergency lights on and any other equipment you need to work to get everything else back up and running.

Esky? In NZ it's a chilly bin.

Glad you got it sorted, and thanks for sharing the solution. I might see if I can remove privileged from mine in that case.

I'm on x86, but the below relevant lines have mine working:

--privileged

--group-add keep-groups

--device /dev/ttyUSB0:/dev/ttyUSB0

I also had to add my user that runs the container to group "dialout" as that owns the ttyUSB0 device. Keep in mind to log out and back in with this user after adding the group to apply the change.

Hope that helps!
