I was notified by Samsung that my new washing machine had a recall because the control module could overheat and a firmware fix would prevent any damage. It required me to download the Samsung Smart Things App to my phone, create a Samsung

An emergency is a valid concern and I believe all cars, regardless of Tesla, that feature electronic (fancy) doors also feature physical escape latches. In the Model 3 you can pull up on a handle on the door to force the door open without t

I know it's personal preference but I think a good number of people don't know they will be fine without 15 buttons on the steering wheel or 10 different buttons for climate control. I haven't missed any of that moving to a M

It's a shame that Younger Dryas x Humans is a fringe topic in some circles. I find the conversation regarding humans in this time to be very entertaining and somewhat fascinating. Particularly the fringe thesis that humans might have b

Powering a house for days is a very broad statement. Does this include things are that electrified such as a central air conditioner and/or heat pump? Electric water heater? Electric clothes dryer? Maybe the last two would be considere

Pretty sure these devices are being installed all over the world, including countries with very strict gun laws and very low rates of gun ownership.

Reminds me of my Army days using the Wet Bulb device to obtain the "Flag" status. Used a dry bulb, wet bulb, and a black bulb fed into a slide rule calculator to determine the heat index and thus working conditions. http:/&#

As a forced Teams user, I would like to say it is absolutely terrible. From a technology point of view, it works- and it works well enough. The problem is that it enables the worst tendencies in managers to "hyper" engage to the p

Calling your pit stops makes sense, sort of, for drivers. Top drivers like Vettel (well pre-Sbinalla Vettel) have a better "feel" for the tires and can gauge how they are doing. But this often times is risky and breaks down in rac
