Every time it has happened to me the airline paid out quickly without any fuss. Once with KLM the plane broke over Siberia, they flew back and put me on a flight the next day. I go…

What happens when software is at 0%, your slider is at 100% and you want to raise the volume?

That link ( https://cdec.water.ca.gov/resapp/RescondMain ) just times out for me, might be yet another American site that just geoblocks all European IP addresses. Here's an archiv…

My ISP gives me both an IPv4 address and a heap of IPv6, most browsers will use what is called Happy Eyeballs to try both IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time and use the one that connec…

At least in Europe I've seen plenty of thermostats/boilers that support OpenTherm which allows the thermostat to set the boiler temperature instead of only switching on/off

They are if you have anything else that needs to be done at the same time. I would say they're fine if you have nothing else to do while waiting, or you need microsecond delays to …

You can get randomly selected upon checkout where they will sample a few items from your bag, and if it finds a discrepancy they will rescan every item you have. These hand held sc…

At least for the lighting related concern, I personally use both Zigbee bulbs and switches. These can be bound together so the switch will directly tell the bulb to turn off/on wit…

I'm Dutch, and can walk into pretty much any supermarket to buy a prepaid sim card without identification and pay with cash.

Missed this comment when asking why you didn't add a $2 RTC, but given that you mention Adafruit I assume making your own hardware to stick onto a Pi wasn't an option? The DS3231 y…

If you were already going through all that effort, what was the reason behind not just adding a $2 RTC to the i2c header of each Pi?

I pulled up the actual USB power delivery standard[1] USB_PD_R3_1 V1.8 2023-04.pdf, and 5V 5A is perfectly compliant, albeit optional. On page 805 you find Table 10-2 SPR Normative…

It's not just about the server you're connecting to knowing your IP, that's a given. With ECS every recursive DNS server in the chain also knows which site you want to visit
