Ah yes, the “Waterfall Paradox”.
If there is no secret behind the waterfall: “Are you kidding me? How could they not put something behind this waterfall?”
If there is a secret behind the waterfall: “Of course they went with the lazy trope of putting a secret behind the waterfall. Typical!”
I don’t see how this is “full circle”. In places where it does get that cold, most homes already have a form of heating for the house. Adding on a heat pump or, at least in my case in the Midwest, replacing the central AC unit with a heat pump just means that you’re only kicking that original heating system on a few days out of the year. That’s a massive reduction in use compared to being the only source of heat for half the year.
It’s a problem that new construction homes would need to fix if they don’t want an NG connection at all, but it’s not unsolvable.
Funny timing, considering I’m for the first time having trouble getting a TP-Link AC600 working on a Mint install.
That’s good for you, that you have the ability to buy a better plan. There are huge swaths of the US where they simply don’t have that freedom of choice.
And they settled on 100mbps as the standard because that’s what it needs to be…a standard. Not a mandate that “all internet to every house shall only be 100mbps” but rather that 100mbps be the bare minimum that we are able to provide across the country.
Yup. And if you want to look up more info on how to do it correctly, look up hard drive shucking.
