    Just because the carrier of energy is source independent, doesn't mean the consumer of that energy is not responsible for the carbon emissions of its production. Since we're talkin…

    Bob- and apartment-owner here. We have a small kitchen and just don't have the space for a full-sized dishwasher. Bob fits snugly in the cabinet under the sink and runs once a day …

    As pbarnes_1 said, I'd recommend adding some form of authentication. Perhaps you can instruct the service to send the requester instructions to provide proof that they are the owne…
