From the dot graph, it implies that las Vegas is one of the worse options? And Birmingham is somehow best?

Not sure I’m reading that right?

Is this a US only thing? I have no email and no Gemini app (although there are settings in system)

You cannot get a grant for a hybrid heat pump system (for example a combination of gas boiler and air source heat pump).

I think it just requires you to have a heat pump for all your water and heating. There appears to be pumps that do both, (mentioned in this article) but that’s more research than I can get away with while ‘working’.

Do you have a link for the exclusion bit?

If it’s green energy it’s not really a huge problem.

Put some solar panels up too and you’re golden.

I guess that’s to stop people from using it to get air-con when it’s mean to help people move away from gas. A bit silly though.

…I suspect there are a few models that only need 1 part switched for it to be possible…

They are trying to push people to heat pumps (basically air conditioners tech wise)

They are also moving towards building/efficiency regs that require completely sealed houses and forced air systems in new builds.

So new houses will effectively be required/encouraged to have an air con capable houses.

The old housing stock though? Oof. I’m on a private estate that even bans that kind of stuff!

As someone that works from home and eats a lot of sandwiches; a bread maker. Great for pizza dough too!

They pack them in as tight as they can, so doing that fucks up two stations instead…

These work well. I have to power mine through the cigarette lighter, but newer cars should have USB power as standard.

That’s really annoying for everyone else though.

You can configure that I think? (The every keystroke, not the stupidity)

No.

People (mostly) use sites like this because of the threaded discussions.

It would also be hell to moderate.

The hill upto the finishline on my local park run this morning was way harder than usual, so (almost) that one today!

I have to admit I didn’t read it through properly, but if it’s a problem with two CPUs then it’s probably a motherboard issue. (Or something g completely unrelated like ram)

Just RMA it (or the motherboard?)

Is this a new build, or an existing building?

If it’s an existing building, with an existing HOA, then it should already have a bank account? (Probably with funds in it!)

If it’s new, build up an emergency fund, but leave it in a bank. putting it into stocks is crazy, it’s an emergancy/maintenance fund, you need to know how much is there, trust it’s not going to just disappear and be able to access it quickly.

Make sure you understand the voting rights and who has authority to access the money if there is going to be a significant sum in there.

Because then you have an expensive robot not being used, while still keeping the wage bill.

Places with the wireless battery powered payment terminals will still work without power for a while. Lots of them don’t even need network, they just sync up later.

But for the most part, if there is a significant power outage, things are screwed anyway.
