  This article explains how to (possibly) fix an error along the lines of "Encountered error while fetching the list of EventHub PartitionIds" which is thrown by your Azure Function (or other code) trying to trigger based on IoT Hub or Event Hub messages. Problem When trying to debug or run your Azure Function (or, theoretically, some other code attaching itself to an EventHub or IoTHub to listen to messages), you get an error somewhat like this: Microsoft.Azure.EventHubs.

  How to fix disconnected Sonoff Zigbee sensors in Home Assistant?

You could also order one online, even for free - but that's kind of cumbersome, and might come with some weird verification steps. Sounds quite bothersome.

  2022 Year Review - Stop Caring & Just Enjoy The Ride!

  2022 is over, and it's high time to write the annual Year Review again. The ongoing pandemic and the 3rd World War on my doorstep have made me a little bit cynical, but in all fairness, the year was not all bad. Last year , I promised a new article every Tuesday in 2022. I think I've just managed that, as long as this one actually goes out in time... But that's enough of that, what was up in 2022? Koskila.net in 2022
