It can be pretty great, but you really do need to treat it differently than you would on the grid!
For example: at night, making sure you don’t leave lights on, not running heavy loads like the microwave for very long, etc.
The good news is that as the old expensive equipment gets phased out, it gets easier and cheaper to DIY your off grid (or emergency backup) system!
For real, I have wood stoves (and propane heaters a supplemental) for winter heat so luckily a little less load on my system! This past winter was so cold here I had to get a subzero sleeping bag and put a living heater (my dog) inside of it because even the wood stoves couldn’t keep up
I have mini splits but because of the sun situation I couldn’t run them on heat without burning through my power/spending hundreds of dollars on gas for the generator!
As someone who’s house is entirely powered by solar, I love the long days! I also do a lot of outside work so the extra hours of daylight really help me there too
During winter it was so overcast and cloudy that I had to run a generator almost the entirety of the season
Your must be the rouge

Well, I’ve got a 50/50 shot if I exclude “B. Hair” and “D. Eyeball”
I believe his full name is Eduficial Chad Bott
It’s just text they perspective warped onto a brick wall with a drop shadow
I got another confession to make.
I think it has something to do with frame times.
I’m not an expert but I feel like I remember hearing that low framerate high frametime feels worse than low framerate low frametime. Something to do with the delay it takes to actually display the low framerate?
As some of the other comments mentioned, it’s probably also the framerate dropping in general too.
As long as it doesn’t take a full minute to load any page and have 2 search bars that do different things in the game library, yes!
I had a friend paraphrase the plot of fahrenheit 451 for me, because I haven’t read it. Talk about ironic!
On another note, I need to read more
I was told in 6th or 7th grade science class that you can’t hear underwater
Bicycle tires with round nubbin tread! It looks like they’re just about bald too, which I’m sure didn’t help
I wonder if there’s a way to bring that tread style to the modern world, it looks really interesting compared to what we have now (minus the baldness)
Not a forensic carologist but it almost looks like he got t-boned (old fashioned style at 25mph, of course) and lost control (at a brisk 27mph) and hit the fence
That’s the new slogan for Disney World, I heard!
A similar vein as this, at work I was talking about a heat gun:
“Look, the feet are molded into the cable so if you break it you have to buy theirs!”
I then pull the cable out to show it as an example and snap
I didn’t realize it had a retention clip at all, so I lightly pulled it and snapped the thin plastic holding it in. I thought it was held in by friction.
Oops.
My pc “spikes” from 6% to 11% but was only noticeable when I raised the update speed to high
Is that the spiking, and are other people seeing more?
That’s awesome, I’d love to get a system like that going for my generator. Good luck with that, if you end up doing it!
What’s the insulation situation in your house? I didn’t build mine and the previous owner who did used Styrofoam and cinder blocks so it’s a losing battle keeping it climate controlled 95% of the time (alongside no central ducts at all minus the chimney)
