Better than bringing me dishes juuust after I finished and drained the sink…


The guy threatens to annex the whole territory…
So you agree to let him build military installations there as long as he ‘promises’ he’ll not invade…
🤦
‘Cursive’ is a very generous description of the scribble that has become my signature…

A single alarm via an app works just fine to wake me up, that isn’t my issue.
Multiple alarms in a day is because I use alarms as reminders as well. ‘Remember to do x on y date at z time’. I can get quite fixated on tasks and forget to take breaks on time.
All I need is a replacement app where I can set alarms on a recurring schedule and/or at a specific date. The standard clock/alarm app that’s been on my various phones has been great until the current version decided to make this change, dismissing multiple unrelated alarms all at once instead of just the one that’s actually about to go off.
Now I’m looking for an equivalent alternative and seeing what peoples recommendations are for that.


I kind of want to 3D print a bunch of these, as well as busts of Trump. I’ll attach the signs to porta-pottie doors, then leave the bust inside the toilets.
Then people can visit the memorial and literally take a shit on trumps head.


Wasn’t sure if this was just a meme.

It’s not.


Bold of you to assume He’ll just hand the keys over.
Trump will not leave the Whitehouse peacefully.

This looks like hell…
It’s only one lane of traffic either way and you’ve got to merge in and out of two separate traffic flows in a short distance just to go ‘straight’ through to the other side.
Excuse me while I go block that whole domain in my network…


I don’t think that’s true, just because I’m pretty sure even users that aren’t explicitly subscribed still see the downvotes. I could be wrong 🤷🏻
Either way, the data is still there and is passed around to those that choose to see it. Disabling downvotes doesn’t actually prevent items being downvoted, it just hides them from those that don’t want to see it.


A bold strategy Cotton…


When downvotes are disabled on an instance; they’re just not displayed to that instances users. Nor is the downvote button displayed (so those users can’t downvote).
The instance will still receive and track downvotes from outside instances; showing the data to other instances that don’t hide it. The data is still there, it’s just that the instance admins chose to not display them to their own users.


Not sure what’s up with the downvotes, that’s a legitimate concern any time you’ve got a male plug supplying power… It literally IS a solar wallsocket generator with what’s essentially a suicide cord permanently attached.
I’m sure they’ve put some protection in place; but still.


I wonder how fast that shut off is. Will it prevent a shock if you unplug and touch the male plug?


Apparently American units are coming with an outlet you install in place of a standard outlet which does monitor the combined power
This doesn’t sound right: measuring at one outlet doesn’t grantee you’re measuring the full circuit load unless you can be absolutely sure it’s the very first outlet in a branch circuit specifically. A ring circuit throws that idea out entirely. To measure reliably, you’d have to measure at the breaker itself as well as the solar inverter.
Maybe a replacement breaker, that measures and comunicates with the imverter?
You run into compatibility issues with the different electrical panel manufacturers though…
Idk, I’ll have to get my hands on one of these kits when available and look closer.


I picked 600w for nice round amperage numbers in the above math; even just a few hundred watts presents the same issues though. You could fit a decent size set on the balcony, covering the outside of the balcony railing.
I wouldn’t be so sure on the second point. I live in a 3bed apartment with 2 main outlet circuits. 1 supplying the livingroom and half of one bedroom. Another supplying the other two bedrooms + the other half of the 3rd bedroom.
Between the main entertainment/lighting electronics in the livingroom, the portable ac in the adjoining bedroom, the watercooler/heater, and recently a set of ebike battery chargers; that circuits base load sits around 6.5a during a charge cycle, with peaks right around 15a when the ac runs+the water cooler, occasionally peaking right up to 16.5a. I’ve tripped the breaker a few times running the vacuum at the wrong time ontop of those.
The other bedrooom circuit is similarly loaded with a couple computers, device chargers, and another ac (cooling is crap in this place plus our unit faces the sun all day); though not quite as heavily as the other circuit.
The living room circuit is where a solar system would be installed (it’s where the outdoor outlet is connected) and the main appeal of a system like that is not having to modify wiring since we’re not allowed to touch that as tennants (the corporate landlord is rather unlikely to allow modifications even from a licensed electrician either).
Supposedly the solar inverter would shut off during a mains power outage, but is it fast enough to prevent shock if the plug was disconnect and touched?
IDK, interesting systems, just curious about them. I’ll have to look closer when they’re actually available.
