    This has come up a few times on HN, if you search comments for "Hetzner fraud". The solution is to use a different provider if you can't use Hetzner.

    It's air to air, so it's for heating air only. I still use resistive heating for hot water.

    I'm in the UK, and got an air-to-air heat pump (more commonly known as air conditioning). It made sense because of extremely high electricity prices, and I have an insulated house without gas, electric only. There's a lot of house

    Yep, the youtube video at 21:25 contains a screenshot of UK electricity generation mix over a 4 week period in 2020, which was 0.3% coal.

    I linked the image file url, but checking on my phone, it redirects to the bloated page instead of the image. Loaded just the image on my desktop though.

    I don't actually use Zen queries myself, but it does have a queries_disabled template tag, which would allow for more specific control.

    See also django-zen-queries https://github.com/dabapps/django-zen-queries , which can make it impossible for changes to a template to trigger queries.

    If I search my emails: "EC2 has detected degradation of the underlying hardware hosting your Amazon EC2 instance" It's just something you have to do yourself with Hetzner.

    I heard the devops guys at a previous job wrote a script to detect CPU fan failures. Then got asked to stop sending so many emails about CPU fan failures. Was still worth it because it's cheap, but they're cheap because it's
