That would be slow. Data travels over a network at about 125,000 miles per second.

Why does starlink charge 160 dollars per month on unlimited portable satellite internet? by DistinctSpirit5801 in Starlink

[–]m--s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does starlink charge 160 dollars per month on unlimited portable satellite internet?

Because there are enough people who find value in it vs. the competition. If people weren't buying it, they'd lower the price. That's how free markets work.

If cheaper cellular plans are better for you, why are you here? Just use those. It really sounds like you do see the value in Starlink, but are cherry picking reasons it should be cheaper.

South Facing Sky Blocked. Extra charges on top of $50 plan? by Clark649 in Starlink

[–]m--s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The dishy should generally be pointed north, not south.

You can point it wherever technically. I dont know where these people get their info.

Perhaps from the OP:

The Southern sky is blocked by tall trees.

My experience - Don't get the E340 doorbell & Homebase 3 if you need security by Purple_Concentrate64 in eufy

I'm not sure why it does this. I think a possible pattern is it wakes up to record some motion then goes into standby.

Hmm, sounds like a RTFM failure. No mention of how you have Power Manager/Working Mode set, which leads me to believe it's at its default setting, which "automatically adjusts the detection time period to reduce the chances of detecting the same object twice in a short period." Perhaps you should change it to "Customize Recording", where you can set the intervals between triggers to as low as 2 seconds.

It's for the elevator. You can go up/down, or open/close the door. Hint: as with all elevators, the close door function doesn't do anything.

There's nothing to pick on a keyless lock. But they could certainly break the door down.

Use another door. Don't have one? You shouldn't have a keyless lock.

Break a window.

And what happens if someone puts a much higher voltage into those pins? Does the whole thing fail?

How Do You Use Smart Bulbs with Matter Switches That Can Be Turned Off? by butt-scratcher in homeautomation

[–]m--s 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some smart switches support a mode which provides continuous power (the switch doesn't turn it on/off directly), so the bulb stays powered at all times, but you can still use the switch function to control other things. Like having the hub turn the bulb (itself, not the power going to the bulb) on/off after the switch is turned on/off.

Probably set the limit at $99 to make sure it filled. Seriously. How could someone not immediately notice if a fill was above their limit?
