Hello there,
I’m quite happy with my build, yet I consider getting a better display that has less backlight and black is really black, so the screen is not visible.
Currently I’m using display from decomissioned laptop.
What type of display would you recommend for that?
Thank you!

RE: MMM-DumpsterDay
@dinschal Hey there, it’s not possible to set it via config right now, but it’s quite easy to modify it in the MMM-DumpsterDay.js file:
Find folloing code (about row 167)
// Trashday today
if (difference%datediff_1 == 0) {
result = 1
Log.info(“It’s trashday !!”);
}and change the value of result to 0.
So it’s:// Trashday today
if (difference%datediff_1 == 0) {
result = 0
Log.info(“It’s trashday !!”);
}Please let me know if this solution worked as desired.
Have a good one; Greetings from Czechia. -
My atelier mirror v2.0 (rebuild)
Hey guys,
I’d like to share my rebuilt mirror in my home office. I ordered a brand new mirror by @Goldjunge_Chriz and it looks dope!
In this take I put both power supply cables through the gooseneck in the wall, so while it’s hanging, there are no cables visible.
Also did some lesser css modifications.
It’s not rich for modules, but I like it that way.
Right now I’m considering 3D printing some fancy corners (like witcher schools medalions or sth), to cover the croocked frame joins.I appreciate any constructive criticism. Please excuse the low photo quality, my phone died.

RE: MMM dumpsterday
@elmago Hey there, I did check your request and I will work it in, but these days I’m super busy with work so just give me some time ;)
-
RE: MMM dumpsterday
@cowboysdude I made the module as the trash takeout is quite irregular in my town. Plastic waste is collected every 28 days, green waste is collected every 21 days and regular garbage every odd tuesday.
Say whatever you want, I still find it way more useful than a module telling me I’m handsome.
-
RE: MMM dumpsterday
@elmago Hi there,
does that mean the garbage collection is skipped that week and next collection is next week ?
Or the garbage collection is just postponed to next non-holiday day?I can try to add this functionality, I just need to understand the scenario :)
Cheers.

RE: *NEW LIST 29.06.2021* Two way community order for mirror glass for all european countries - Open until at least 10 people have entered
Also you can offer these already manufactured in the next round. I dont know how about guys, but I was not very strict about the dimensions of my mirror.
As @malevolent suggested a 10% warrant would be fair. -

@goldjunge_chriz Awesome! :) Could you please just confirm I’m among those whose payment arrived correctly? :) Thanks :)

RE: Shutdown Magic Mirror with Home Assistant
@jordes First part of the automation is ssh call for shutdown.

Finding a working script took me a while, but it works like a charm without any excessive MM modules.
All you need is to setup passwordless ssh connection between HA and MM.

RE: Shutdown Magic Mirror with Home Assistant
I’m using my old Broadlink wifi smart plug. It has integration in HA, so the setup is “next next finish” style.
Automation turns it on at 6 AM and turns off at midnight. -
RE: MMM-DumpsterDay
@blackeaglece I see. What is in the log? There should be evaluations if its trashday or not.
Also can you inspect the elements if .non_today class is present on the divs? If yes, check if the css file is loaded properly, as it should be hiding the images when it’s not dumpster day.https://github.com/DeanoNoire/MMM-DumpsterDay/blob/master/MMM-DumpsterDay.css

RE: MMM-DumpsterDay
@blackeaglece I’m quite certain you have to create functions and instances for every landscape reccuring date. Act like second and third landscape instances are different kind of trash with the same image.

RE: Img Dumpster day
@blackeaglece Hey man,
first of all, could you continue this in the original thread? https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/11558/mmm-dumpsterday
I did not get the notification and got to this post by coincidence while going through unread posts :DHave you also made any changes in the module code? I presume you created functions for Vetro and Paper right?
For the triple use of enableLandscape, I’d go with creating duplicate functions like Landscape1, Landscape2,… and using the same image as I’m afraid it wouldn’t really work this way.Please share you edited module and we can figure this out :)
Also if you have created images for Vecro (glass i pressume?) and Paper can you share it as well so I can extend the original module?
Thanks.

My home study mirror
Hi there,
this is my first mirror I built like 2 years ago.
Components:
RPi3
monitor from discarted laptop
monitor controller from Aliexpress
Wood from hobby market
Not-that-okay spy mirror from local mirror factory (Very dark reflection and display is visible even during daytime)
Black painted back of an old ikea wardrobe (dont know the name of the material, but it’s solid and light)


Currently I’m using these modules with changed locale to Czech:
Clock
Currentweather and Weatherforecast - I cut out most of the features
Calendar - mapped to family-shared profile of my google calendar
Newsfeed - modified for ČT24 RSS (Czech national news tv)
MMM-Snow - snowfall effect on December
MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify - pretty cool, but I also cut out most of the features
MMM-HonorKills - My module showing my current status of honor kills in WoW
MMM-DumpsterDay - My module notifying me, when I have to put my trash, plastic and greenery dumpster in front of my house (as it’s quite irregular in my town)These days I’m preparing for building a new better mirror as I’ve ordered a perfect mirror from @Goldjunge_Chriz, who is shipping it from Germany.
Also I got into Blender modeling, so I’m considering creating a board to fix the Raspberry and monitor controller way better.
If my conscience (wife) allows it I will even destroy the wall to lead the cables in the wall, so it can be hanged without any visible cables :)
Anyway I think I will make some kind of timelapse video for the next project, so I can share it if you guys are interested :)Have a good one and stay safe!

RE: Introduce yourself!
Hi, I’m Daniel, 29yo DWH Architect from Czech Republic. Married (quite happily), father of a cheerful one year old girl.
These days I’m working from homeoffice, so instead of microadventures and fishing I invest more time in my family and smart home implementation. I’ve made my magicmirror like 2 years ago. Now I’m waiting for a new glass and totally looking forward to building a new and better one.
Thanks for being so great community!
