The cables have fairly high ratings but in the even of a short circuit, the ratings have a safety margin of about 10x that the cable can last about 6 hours under, above the normal rating under standard conditions (ie, not fire).

My APC BackUPS Pro (supposedly line interactive) runs fine without battery (ran it with a tab from shipping still in the case), might depend on the setup. Generally line interactive makes little sense why it wouldn't work without batte

What you want is any type of UPS that is line-interactive (Smart UPS or BackUPS Pro), those convert line voltage to 12V and back to line voltage with the battery in between instead of having to switch the battery into the circuit. Basically

c't still does very in depth testing like that when they do a larger PSU lineup test, though not for smaller individual tests.

A large surplus of CO2 is also toxic, regardless of how much oxygen you have (see: Apollo 13).

Fire supression systems basically run their own electrical code. At one of my previous workplaces I learned a bit about our local firecode in relation to electrical code. Mostly that firecode supersedes electrical code. The fire alarm is ru

The statement that it produces no chemicals more toxic than itself is true but misleading because the combustion products will largely consist of chlorine gas, hydroflouric gas (not the acid, the gas) and a variety of other flourine compoun

Similar fun would likely be the safety sheet for FOOF (Dioxygen diflouride), a compound that you can't really get to room temperature without said compound tearing itself and it's container apart. I do recall it reacts "vigou

Most banks in germany do it for free, my bank does 1'000 Instant Transfers for free (incoming + outgoing) after which I have to pay a fee for every additional block of 1'000 transactions. 1'000 is plenty considering the super

I didn't provide any anecdotes but I would point out that even if evidence is just an anecdote, it doesn't mean it's wrong.

In germany the sliding top door is standard in almost all supermarkets, ranging from ALDI to Edeka, it covers "normal" and "budget" supermarkets. The only places I see non-transparent doors is bulk supermarkets.

Well, in Germany the solution is the standard rate for lawyers. When you loose a court case, you do have to pay the loosers costs. But only the hours they spent in court or drafting actual legal documents related to the case, no the lunch b

Well, the thing is that I'm not forcing you to use my instance. If I tried to prevent you from saying specific things on all instances then I would call it censorship. But as long as you can go elsewhere for your speech, it's no

Over the last 27 years, Insect biomass has dropped by more than 75% in protected areas in Germany. I don't think this is a memory issue. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...

There is no small group of administrators that meets up to decide what everyone can see. Every instance can on their own decide what they see and what not. The larger community doesn't have a "council of true moderation", mos

I don't assume, I just explain what I do and what I see most commonly done. I don't allow racism and that's not censorship, it's my personal, private choice and my users agree with it (if they don't they are free to

I explained why your comment is incorrect based on mastodon.

by zaarn 6y ago
I mean, that's basically why the comment agrees with what I wrote, I think. You're free to federate with whoever you want and other people are free to federate with you or not. Nobody is forced to listen to what you have to say, i

In mastodon the individual platforms are run by individual administrators, who decide what is permissible and what not. You can't force them to have to list or federate with your instance just like you can't force someone to liste

All this says is that you can't force people to listen to your speech. If you disagree, the only other option is to force people to listen, which is just fascism.

If you disagree, you can run a server that doesn't follow consensus. The most common outcome is that you'll be blacklisted or atleast silenced by other instances (silenced meaning only people that deliberately follow see your post

IIRC this was basically what they said when annotations become unavailable to new videos. They're completely gone now, so probably a year or so until community contributions are completely wiped.

That's pretty much your limitation; your linux kernel + initramfs can't be on filesystems other than VFAT (ie, must be on the ESP but there is some ways you can have it work across disks). Hence the table being slightly misleading

I always install Windows to a different disk, so yes, Windows will try to recover partitions on other disks, especially when it finds multiple ESPs and the windows one isn't the active one (upon which it sometimes tries to install it&#

The table is somewhat misleading. The filesystem support for example refers to being able to boot a kernel that is on that FS from disk. In most gummiboot setups, your kernel will be on the ESP partition along with everything else, so it do

In arch you can choose the bootloader as well. The recommendation I hear a lot and that I use is systemd-boot (formerly gummiboot), which strangely doesn't have much to do with systemd. It can pick up Windows for multiboot and is strai
