From the dot graph, it implies that las Vegas is one of the worse options? And Birmingham is somehow best?

Not sure I’m reading that right?

Is this a US only thing? I have no email and no Gemini app (although there are settings in system)

How accurate is this do we think?

Most of my steam deck playtime is offline and it’s awful at recording that playtime.

You cannot get a grant for a hybrid heat pump system (for example a combination of gas boiler and air source heat pump).

I think it just requires you to have a heat pump for all your water and heating. There appears to be pumps that do both, (mentioned in this article) but that’s more research than I can get away with while ‘working’.

Do you have a link for the exclusion bit?

If it’s green energy it’s not really a huge problem.

Put some solar panels up too and you’re golden.

I guess that’s to stop people from using it to get air-con when it’s mean to help people move away from gas. A bit silly though.

…I suspect there are a few models that only need 1 part switched for it to be possible…

They are trying to push people to heat pumps (basically air conditioners tech wise)

They are also moving towards building/efficiency regs that require completely sealed houses and forced air systems in new builds.

So new houses will effectively be required/encouraged to have an air con capable houses.

The old housing stock though? Oof. I’m on a private estate that even bans that kind of stuff!

I thought ifixit was carrying everything?

They pack them in as tight as they can, so doing that fucks up two stations instead…

These work well. I have to power mine through the cigarette lighter, but newer cars should have USB power as standard.

That’s really annoying for everyone else though.

FYI - This article is from 2020.

I know they did some stuff semi-recently about the security of direct calls. So there is a high chance this is have changed since then.

You can configure that I think? (The every keystroke, not the stupidity)

I have to admit I didn’t read it through properly, but if it’s a problem with two CPUs then it’s probably a motherboard issue. (Or something g completely unrelated like ram)

Just RMA it (or the motherboard?)

And everyone already has an account, they can just press a button to join the server and be interacting straight away.

Because then you have an expensive robot not being used, while still keeping the wage bill.

I think the idea is that there are other events with similar risk profiles, the papal election is just an example of one.

Huh
