I came here to say this. If anyone's interested, here's unedited footage of a bear.

Nothing more dangerous than a female haggis guarding her neeps.

I mean, joking aside, isn't that how parity calculations used to work? "Got more uppy bits than downy bits - that's a paddlin'" or something.

I maintain that it's cheaper to buy better and keep longer, but, yeah, Vimes' Boots strike again.

So I was about to say "I love my Fairphone 5 and recommend it wholeheartedly but it's not supported by Lineage is yet, which is really frustrating, especially after its been out nearly a whole year", but then I checked and - well, I'll be damned - LineageOS does support the FP5 now so I know what I'll be doing later on: eating chicken wings. But after that, upgrading my FP5 to LineageOS.

I read "daters" as "dealers" and I ran the whole gamut of emotions in about a half second.

 

These water fountains flow constantly with fresh drinking water for anyone to use and they are everywhere in Rome. Covering the spout with your finger forces the water out a hole on top, creating a arch of water at perfect 𝓼𝓵𝓾𝓻𝓹𝓲𝓷𝓰 height. The Romans were/are with us.

 

The apartment blocks - two of perhaps a hundred - are surrounded by open greenery, wide walkways and dense tram networks. Most of them have café bars, bookstores, grocery stores or the like on the ground level and loads of benches, play areas and exercise equipment dotted about. The place is rife with Third Places.

The remarkable thing about these is that, to the locals, they seem fairly unremarkable.

 

Does anyone know a way of calculating the amount of heating I need to maintain an average temperature in terms of kWh of heating per 24 hours? Ideally one taking into account weather conditions.

I have a pretty big Home Assistant setup which includes switches for individually controlling all the (electric) heaters in my home. I'm also using an electricity supplier that changes the amount they charge every 30 minutes to reflect supply and demand. Given these rates are published at least 24 hours in advance I can currently choose a number of hours to run the heaters per day and have an automation automatically select the cheapest periods. I'm paying less per kWh for heating than I would if I was using a gas boiler. Plus, it's all from renewables, so working out that number of hours is the next step.
