Is this whare they come from? I should get into breeding

Interesting watches that they can enter the steam hardware survey

Yhea steam machine was designed to be faster than 75% (not your top 25% top gaming PC). I think think it’s fair of a lot of people to compair there before RAM-boom prices expensive computers to such an device.

I kind of agree with Linus here that SteamOS is an excellent option for a simple gaming OS, I will probably add another option to boot to soon

Our tax on natural gas is already higher than electric. If we buy the same amount of heat in a whole year (not accounting solar panels) we would save about €200 per year (almost 20%).

We have also bough an heatpump for €7000, of which we get abour €2300 as subsidies for a heatpump.

To answer your question, yes it could. But a knife will always cut on both sides, and people will always be unhappy about a change. But in this case the world would benefit from it so I think we should but more tax on non-renewable and put less on renewables

Make your life easier, use seperated drives. Windows will “auto repair” (translate to ‘Wipe linux’) sometimes. Also a lot of windows issues with the updater not liking that there is another OS available at boot. But it is functional when booted

Welcome. Talking from experience, your worse days will get brighter this way. Enjoy it!

For a better seperarion. You examples (laptops consoles phones) all run DC, meaning they Need to turn AC to DC, needing a PCB who does it who not design it for world use? For fridges, washing machines, dryers, they run on AC, they are cheaper to make if they just don’t have a PCB and run straight on AC.

Also note that EU kettles can run on USA network, they will just be horrible slow heaters (they are slower with about 230V/110V = ~2x)

Indeed, RAM is a memory latch by use of a capacitor. And on an interval it replenishes the charge of this capacitor . Thus when there is no power it will lose all its data.

These days it is possible (and Android has/does this) to just write old programs from RAM memory to the SSD, this is a slow process back and forth. But it saves RAM space and power.

I believe in the developer setting you can set up howmuch you wish to store in memory and such. But this has an impact on your battery life.

Correct.

A good ‘at home’ example is your computer power supply

This explanation is good indeed.

Sometimes you design a circuit where the main chip runs on +3.3V reference to the chips ground at 0V, but somewhere in the proces you end up with an extension board that wants 5V below the ground. For easy of use we just call this -5V instead of renaming everything to 0, 5, and 8,3V. Renaming also has the drawback that I like to measure everything reffering to the ground of the main chip. So I personally just don’t rename and keep my reference there.

*fixed 8.5 typo to 8.3

U = R x I

volts (U, probably 19VDC) is constant. The laptop has a resistance ®. This means that the laptop has already dictated the amount of currents (I) that it pulls. You can connect an 100A charger to an phone. The phone dictates howmuch it actually pulling. There is no battery damage/harm in doing so.

If you charge a battery at full-speed, It can heat up. This is in the long term bad for (Lithium) batteries. That’s where the myth might come from?

*fixed formula order

For USB-C: Tiny little side note here, there are some cheap small-size adapters that overheat. Some adapters thotle down, but some rare ones just blink power on and off, which is bad for lithium batteries.

Search a good brand, preferably reviewed, and GAN-type. Spend a bit more than the cheapest. Check if it has the right protocol (probably Power Delivery at some voltage) to make sure it charges at a normal speed.

For a DC charger like OP asked. Match polarity, match Voltage. And at least match the current/watage to make sure you can charge in a reasonable amount of time

For Enschouded it uses all cores before skipping, but only 2 when skipped. So I generally press launch and then set up everything else. And then press skip later when I’m ready to play

How can you confuse Iran and Japan?

Subscriptions aren’t the only sustainable model. Linux, Blender, VLC are actively maintained without requiring every user to pay a recurring fee. They rely mostly on donations, or one-time funding. And it works

A subscription may be a good model for some apps where they have high user-level server cost. But anywhere else I refuse

Nice write up!

We went with Nuki (I wanted something european). It’s not a replacement, but rather a smart-key. Has been rock solid connectivity and locking, and it’s wired in but has a 6month battery on board. When using a wifi connection they can be controlled over MQTT with Home Assistant

The downside is that finger print don’t work well in the rain, but it also has numbers.

We also has a few delivery drivers get confused what button is the doorbell. But that was fixed with a bell sticker icon on the doorbel

Looks like a fire pit poking stick. But I can be really far off

Let me correct that for you:

“USA taxes are hard”

Yhea I prefer my tax return to be error-free
