Some countries have comparatively high building standards, but none (that I'm aware of) come close to a Passive House standard. My gripe isn't as much what the minimum requirement is, and more the incentive to never go…
Electric boilers are extremely energy inefficient compared with heat pumps. If you built a Passive House, not going the extra mile for a heat pump seems silly to me. Not to mention that heat pumps can easily protect you…
Personally I've addressed that concern with a CO2 alarm in every room (which you should have regardless, so I don't count that against passive houses). I suspect that there exist ventilation fallback solutions that can…
In general, this conclusion comes from the notion that a passive house has fewer moving parts and requires less attention. A poorly insulated house demands that you take more active measures to ensure that it keeps a…
It saddens me that construction quality is almost irrelevant when building a new building nowadays. The profit difference between a well-isolated passive building and one that merely meets the minimal standards, is…
Looks like fastly... slowed down! ...I'll see myself out.
This heavily reminds me of when Artists are offered to "get paid in exposure".
Anything larger than the iPhone SE (my current phone) is simply too large. So unless Apple changes course and starts providing smaller phones anytime soon (doubtful), my next one will unfortunately probably be an…
I'm of the opinion that if the headline is a lie, then the thread should be flagged; no matter how interesting the content. Lying shouldn't be rewarded. But then again, I don't have flagging rights yet, so who am I to…
While I'd very much wish to put anything Atlassian up front and center, Microsoft Teams is simply way more in my face. I have to use it for communication, and it's a huge pain use. It's huge, bloated, and more…
