Not addressing your main points. Just wanted to point out you can have a smart home with purely local devices. No cloud.

Airvpn, then use their advanced config to create a 443 tcp tunnel out to a single server. Then use that server’s IP in your OpenVPN config file. Route all traffic including dns inside the tunnel.
Traffic will look like all other web traffic - encrypted on standard web ports. You won’t even need to do a DNS lookup to start with and airvpn uses generic rDNS so it’s not super easy to figure out from their perspective.
You’re just flatly wrong, the spec page for the humdrum mini split I pulled up first has a max outdoor max ambient operating temp of 52.78c (127f)
My point in bringing up refrigerant temps was to get you to look into it. Heat exchangers are more effective than you believe. No one is trying to convince you that these units defy the laws of physics.
You should look into variable speed compressors and the temps at which refrigerants work. You’re correct on many points but misinformed on others.
The point is to show different biases through their source’s own interpretation of facts, not to deliver unbiased news themselves.
Put another way, Ground News is kinda saying “here are some cold days, hot days, and in-between days. This is what we experience.” You’re sitting there saying “they’re liars! Have you forgotten 0 degrees kelvin and the center of the sun?!?”
We haven’t forgotten but it’s not the point. Moreover if they changed their scale to show the modern left is not really left wing at all, then they would not be representing what we’re seeing, and critically, they would not be shareable as a demonstration of bias in news. Because most people would dismiss them as propaganda without really digging in.
Didn’t watch, did you?
Yes, they reported the first hand experience because they can vouch for it completely. But they also have hundreds of people who contacted them - often with evidence - about Asus being dishonest and deceitful.
In one of those people. I’m glad the word is spreading. Asus RMA really is that bad, too the degree the company just needs to die.
shutdown -h now on the wrong machine. Should have been “-r”. No IPMI but important enough to force me to drive to the office at night.
Ever since, I force myself to wait a couple seconds before sending any shutdown command, and tend to use reboot instead.
Are you sure you interpreted that statement correctly?
Article said:
The overwhelming force that SWAT teams employ is designed to ensure officer safety, which Schock acknowledges is important. But he says this needs to be balanced by people’s rights against unreasonable searches and seizures. “We're not in Afghanistan or Gaza,” he says.
If Afghanistan or Gaza have something similar to the fourth amendment, then maybe I can see your take.
Otherwise, and what the author seems to be inferring, is that those countries don’t have protections against unreasonable searches and seizures. Not that their people are in any way less human.
lol sorry about that. Polyester definitely doesn’t have that effect on me and unlike cotton, 100% polyester is pretty much unaffected by wash + dry cycles.
Cotton wears out stupidly quick in comparison.
So when buying off I’m interested i don’t even check sizes, I go straight for material. If it’s less than 70% polyester I won’t even consider buying it.
The apology is because stores do seem to be shifting towards folks like me. I love it.
