Thanks! I don't think I would need to do max hour per day.
I understand, and I could make it clear in the description that AC is capped at 18 degres C minimum (65F), so people who like it very cold could skip my airbnb. Some AC can go ridiculously low…
Does anyone know if this could be used to "cap" the AC settings ? It could be useful in an airbnb place, where I want to limit the lowest (e.g. 18 degres Celsius) or hottest (e.g. 22 degres Celsius) the guest can set…
Any good reasons, why not do our first edits around the place you live ? Privacy issue ?
And it is at a smaller scale in the Alpes than in Himalayas. Still devastating: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YisdT5AJobk France is actively draining some of those glacier lakes to prevent them to build up over time.…
You might be onto something. Maybe the lack of central planning in US, and most reliance on private developers, prevents the introduction of denser housing. Not to go full Hausmann…
- more traffic: compare to now? or pre-COVID? because now it is already lower than pre-COVID, at least in SF. I have lived here for more than 20 years, and only now I see seeing empty parking spots around my house. I…
San Francisco has few (French JC Decaux) public toilets (pit stop, etc.), but some are inside other public properties that are not open 24/7 (e.g. rec centers).…
Oh memories of stacking those, and going to my friend's place to copy the latest games :) Remember how we were drilling holes to doubled the disk's storage capacity (from 720 to 1440)…
No need for maggots, I cannot get unpasteurized cheese of less than 60 days old here in US. So, you cannot have a real raclette here in US because authentic Reblochon cheese is illegal to import to the US because it is…
I believe that us, Americans are pretty good at bending international food to our limited ingredients, our own favorite chemicals, sweeteners (corn syrup in everything), our flour and butter (good luck to make pastries…
Around 2015, I was working for a company that processed coupons for large retail stores. We had lots of performance issues, mostly due to our centralized database at the time. I was dreaming at the time to ship a mobile…
The OS that would be put on those old phones, would be a bare minimal, stripped down OS. No need for managing screen, audio, radio/GSM/EDGE/3-4-5G. Not sure about the IO interface, could reuse the USB, but maybe there…
Thinking more on those 10% cap, it would allow scalpers to sell the original ticket to themselves, over and over, to eventually reach the price of the market. Unless Ticketmaster takes a significant proportional bite at…
I think that is the right way to give the enough price control to the artists. So, if The Cure wants to keep the ticket price low, they can.
Maybe that is what we need in US too. Matt Haney is trying to do something with AB 1720 (Resale Price Cap), and Ticketmaster is supporting it. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml... I am not…
Agree... and not defending Ticketmaster, but regarding scalpers in general, I am not sure why one would blame only the ticketing system. If the artists are willing to say sell tickets for $50.00 and the demand is such…
There are lots of often overlooked costs to own a home. I have been 15 years in my place, and now I get some advantages e.g. my loan is fixed so the monthly cost is roughly the same as 15 years ago... in a place like…
THANK YOU! This is a treasure trove. And glad you made the whole museum downloadable, so this treasure does not get lost.
I agree... in early 2000, at Colombo (Sri Lanka) airport, they were calling my name, over and over, but never picked it up. I started to pay attention when some dispatched army guys (it was after the 2001 Tamil Tigers…
Commercial satellites can get 30cm resolution images (military satellites can likely get even more high resolution). The earth is vast, but once you pinpoint a carrier, a simple software loop should be able to track it…
Tracking an aircraft carrier should not be difficult for any state (satellite images). The fact that civilians can do it too now is interesting. It would be another matter if that was tracking a nuclear submarine...
You mean the thing that launched in 2023 and that is still not widely deployed ? My BoA still prints checks and mail them to the US Bank across the street when I have to pay my HOA. So yes, why not FedNow... BoA and…
In US also... but here in US, my bank (Bank of America) would print a check, put it in an envelop, send it to the other bank (e.g. US Bank). So, it is not instantaneous, but it is still free. The drawback is when the US…
Well the cap is only on the interchange fee, there are several other fees to add to it... example: https://www.adyen.com/pricing Processing a Mastercard card is "$0.13 + "Interchange+" + 0.60%" where the "Interchange+"…
