2·2 months agoJust finished reading Human Nature on Tuesday. It was interesting to see where the episodes deviated from the book. The main plot points are the same but there are some interesting differences. Overall I enjoyed it.
3·4 months agoI only have one at the moment. I bought a cheap Dell Wyse thin client from eBay, installed a light Linux distro on it and set it up as a Wyoming Satellite and as a snapcast client. That is connected to an old all in one mini HiFi for speakers. For the mic I just have a small omnidirectional USB mic plugged into the front. Biggest hassle setting it up was ALSA since snapcast and Wyoming were fighting over the devices
6·10 months agoIt’s what Americans would call a band-aid
I can only speak for myself but the upcoming ICE ban was a factor in my recent EV purchase. I intend to keep my car for a long time so as we move closer to the ban more and more cars will be EVs so I didn’t want to be left behind.
The other aspects you mentioned were also factors. Particularly after a test drive and feeling the acceleration and quietness of the car.
7·1 year agoI agree that a mix of energy sources is a good idea. Maybe a mix of wind, solar, hydro…
Batteries isn’t an energy source, it’s energy storage. We can generate electricity in many ways.
Disclaimer: I’ve only had my EV for about a month and usually charge at work or home so haven’t got that much experience with public charger etiquette.
I wouldn’t think 4 hours a week is “hogging it” but I would think the etiquette somewhat depends what 4 hours you are there. If your 4 hours coincidence with the peak usage of the charger (maybe when people are checking in for example) that is different to 4 hours when nobody is there anyway.
From what I understand a lot of the UK rail network is reliant on old infrastructure, think Victorian era bridges/tunnels. These weren’t designed with rail electrification in mind so may not have room for a train and an overhead line for example. While there may be solutions for each individual instance of this sort of problem, solving them involves addressing each of them individually and takes more time and money than electrification would in a vacuum.
