Is there a good source of data on this? This. It's not that I don't believe the article per se, but it doesn't come much further than 'technician says' which I find hard to consider as evidence for various reasons

I mean, why not just have HA just control a hardware thermostat that has different mode settings (home, away, etc.)? Plenty of them exist and its, honestly, easier than trying to make HA into a thermostat. Wel yes, that's exactly my

This is the thing, and the main reason I only played around with HA but never fully implemented it. Ideally for things which are controlled in 'absolute mode' you need a watchdog. Like something implemented in hardware to keep it

While this might be true, you'd have to study that as well to be sure. So essentially the question is what would happen if you for instance in a city take people from across the population and force them to use a cargo bike.

Sure, but the land use for donkeys' housing and especially for their food makes it so that it doesn't quite scale. Unlike bicycles.

bugs are attracted to light Isn't the takeaway from this study that they aren't really, but rather that once they happen to come close to it they cannot get away from it anymore?

Are there distros for which this is fixed out of the box already? About 20 years ago we were writing a cross-platform application which required relaltively low latencies (2-5mSec IIRC) for audio with some of the RME interfaces. On Windows

With slmgr /rearm you can extend the license period. IIRC a couple of times but not unlimited, but I definitely got more than 2 months out of it.

Sorry but no. Then it wasn't a perpetuum mobile. There's no way to violate the laws of thermodynamics. Likely the video was not showing everything, and/or giving a false impression/explanation. Typcial example are those

In this case I was actually wondering about the urologist, not the patients themselves. The latter is a situation I've been in myself so it's easier to relate to and reason about.

Honest question: do you have such job yourself? Or do you intimately know multiple people who do? Or does this come from research? Because if not, that would just sound like how you'd want it to be. Not necessarily what it is like in r

No because that doesn't exist in practice. The losses of converting the generated energy back into electricity make that impossible.

No. They are not unique at all. In my opinion they still are pretty unique because their efficiency is higher than 100%. Which was what I thought the sentence would continue with when I started reading it. Cannot be stressed enough. It&#x

Bit off-topic, but having played with HA a bit I always wonder if there is a general strategy on how to deal with failures, i.e. is there a way to make everything go to the default/safe mode in case things stop working? A watchdog-like

More like in the 24*60 - 5 minutes between brewing and grinding again the next day. In all seriousness: it can takes surprisingly little time for ground wet coffee to form mold. Think 48h range especially when it's relatively hot.
