It will be a bit harder because of different route profiles. On a bike, you can both be quite cold when coasting downhill and steamy hot going uphill.

Apparently people still buy them, because they are cheap. It's the same with printers - the initial purchase price is low, then the consumables are expensive. People really need to include the running costs into their calculations. The

Seems to me that it's the same everywhere. It's not that there are no new IPv6 deployments, it's just that the rate of change is slow.

Not just classical. There is an episode which has Futurama's "Pop a poppler in your mouth..." as a background music. But it could just be that the Poppler song is also based on some classical tune. ;)

This! Don't use an ultrasonic humidifier unless you fill it with distilled water. Tap water will just create a ton of white dust everywhere. If you absolutely need more humidity in your home, get something like the Venta LW45 which has

I know you're kidding (are you?) but this can be easily accoplished by using the ChatGPT app with custom prompt and a bluetooth handsfree. You can also use the same trick to create talking plush toys, just hide the HF inside. ;)

How reliable are these things? Seems like it packs a lot heat into quite a small package.

Seconded. A CO2 sensor is a gentle reminder to open the windows every now and then and get some fresh air in.

If you are really bothered by noise in a bedroom, Electrolux Pure A9/AEG AX9 is 17dB at it's lowest setting (goes up to 49dB at it's maximum speed as opposed to IKEA's 60dB). But it's obviously not as cheap as the I

I almost entirely stopped using candles after getting an air purifier with a particle and VOC monitoring sensor (Electrolux/AEG Pure A9). It's very enlightening. Even a single push of spray deodorant releases a crazy amount of par

It's not just Belgium, it's everywhere now. Though I must I admit I much prefer self-checkout when shopping. The queues are much faster.

You are right. What I mean by that comment is that people might come to a store and think: "Wow, this 65" TV is huge, I don't need that". But they are forgetting that when watching a movie, a lot of screen space is unuse

Yeah, oddly enough, TVs and monitors are measured in inches diagonally even in Europe. However, in the aforementioned scenario (buying a new TV), the correct answer is always: "the biggest you have".

That's Australia for you. Also, isn't Bandit (Bluey's dad) pretty much the definition of "And where most parents work all the time and are tired on weekends."? Except he's tired pretty much all the time.

The current state of Ethernet in 2023 in consumer devices is quite sad. I mean, most TVs and players (and usually not the cheap ones, yes, I'm looking at you, Sony) come with 10/100 Mbit ethernet adapters. I'd expect gigabit
