I can only speak from a UK perspective, but most home ADSL/VDSL/Fibre providers don’t have limits, other than “if your usage is tanking the network, we’ll ask you to knock it off” type clauses.
Most providers are also signed up to an agreement that if your speed drops 50% below the agreed speed on the package on average, they’ll either give you refunds, or let you out of the contract.
The only ones that throttle are the bargain basement operators aimed at people who don’t care, and one otherwise very competent provider that for some unexplainable reason only gives 1TB by default, charging an extra £10 for 10TB.
And I guess there is also a pricing step up to guaranteed bandwidth. For business use, they tend to be things like 1gbits headline, 500mbit guaranteed burst, 100mbit guaranteed sustained.
From my experience, they’re “Hanging around outside the chip shop” gulls.
Most mid-range and above OLEDs do.
“Wololo”
He was made sticky by vicky.
The amount of people who would be off with long covid if not for work from home is understated, in my opinion.
He’s having a little more fun in the original.
The way to tell so often seems to be if someone has called it AI or Machine Learning.
AI? “I put this through chatgpt” (or “The media department has us by the balls”)
ML? “I crunched a huge amount of data in a huge amount of ways, and found something interesting”
IIRC, the reason it wasn’t previously taxed, is that it would have opened up writing off gambling losses against tax.
Don’t quote me, obv.
So maybe it would need a lot of other tax law changing at the same time, to not end up encouraging people accidentally the other way.
You’d need steel chestnuts to even attempt such a thing!
The only thing I can see really shifting it, is people saying they’ll support trump to stay in with their communities, then making excuses why they stayed home on election day.
And if I’m honest, that’s a hell of a hail mary pass.
There are some in the datahoarder community pushing a PB.
They mostly store Linux ISOs.
z-wave may be easier than expected, as I think the devices stay linked to the hardware dongle used. (This is just from memory, mind!). But if you need to change the dongle, perhaps less fun.
imo, it will be a bit of pain to get everything inside HA, but once it’s done, you’ll be inside a platform that is pretty open, and commonly used, with lots of other people (hopefully) posting up solutions to problems before you encounter them!
And because it’s software that will run on pretty much anything, you have the reassurance that even if something crazy happened, you could just reinstall an old version.
If it were me, I’d clear an entire weekend day, power off the old kit, and work away at getting HA controlling everything.
Because if they remaster it, they can also remaster the price.
Which is probably why they’ve pulled all the old versions.
I like to think of it like a passive action that helps handle the smaller amounts of moisture (humans breathing, cooking, laundry), but also an action that helps reduce the problems of acute issues that occur.
That way, when something does happen, there is at least a dampening effect while the leak is fixed.
Leaks and rising damp still need to be addressed, obviously.
Examples are things like vermiculite render on the outside, Steico/Wool batts as normal insulation.
The downside is, it’s expensive. The insulation is only as good as fibreglass/rockwool, and costs about 3x as much.
There is another thing that I sometimes talk about on here, breathability.
You either need to prevent any moisture moving in any direction, or allow vapor to move with breathable materials.
Ones that allow water vapor to move, but not liquid water.
Older buildings, where the original materials were breathable, should ideally continue to use breathable materials. This prevents issues with water wicking through one old surface, then getting trapped behind another. It also removes the risk of damaged or badly designed vapor barriers allowing things through, as the materials themselves help get the moisture out as a passive action.
They’re also changing the way you get money after someone buys something.
eBay balance, apparently. So by default, when a transaction happens, the money stays in eBay, and you have to manually transfer it out, instead of scheduled timed payouts.
Big bus.
We know they’re paying you off with day savers, don’t deny it!
