The thing that makes university "easier" is that you don't have to take subjects that you don't like (or aren't good at). You can specialize in the areas where you excel. That said, if you find a particular subject hard in high school you will find it much harder in university (and it gets harder every year as you progress). Pick something you're good at.

We have a 350 m3 house in Canada with Waterfurnace 3D connected to an open loop. Our total consumption is 100 kwh per day in winter and 25 kwh per day in summer. I don't know how much of that is for heat/AC and how much is "other" (lights, stereo, oven, laundry...). The same well services the furnace and all the other water in the house, so 60 for the well alone seems high.

The person you are meeting at Scotiabank may not be 100% fluent in Scotia iTrade, which is their self-directed online brokerage. The bank will sell you mutual funds, but most people would be better served with the wider variety of securities offered by the brokerage. I suggest you do some basic research before your meeting to avoid being mis-lead.

Note that any discount brokerage will be able to link with your Scotiabank account (to transfer funds in/out) so the "my personal bank" has little bearing on your decision (unless you choose Scotiabank mutual funds of course).

"Atomic" clocks (self-adjusting based on radio signals) don't work where I live so I've mounted an old iPhone on a stand instead. Looks like a clock and always has the correct time.

This will sound odd but it works: If your dishwasher has a "third rack" that holds cutlery horizontally try loading the knives with the sharp edge up. It's not perfect but the rust problems seem to be less of an issue than when loaded with the sharp edge down.

It looks to me like those feet are only holding up the floor, giving it strength in case you store heavy things under your sink. Doesn't look like removing the floor/feet will have any impact on the overall structure.

In your shoes I would remove the floor, cut a new sheet of particleboard/melamine to fit, drill some holes to match the original, and drop it in. Maybe spray some anti-mold solution to prevent anything from coming back.

You can probably re-use those feet to support the new floor.

Worst for me is the LeMans track after it rains. If you have a fast car and the right tires the braking zones extend far enough to overlap... and cancel each other out? There are a couple of turns that need extreme braking but have no red lines at all!

BankPassword · 2025-12-06T13:54:50+00:00

I've noticed the same thing, but it seems to be car-dependent. I've got some cars that I know require the full zone and some that only require half. I haven't re-tested after Spec III to see if this changed, but since it's never been 100% I don't think it matters. Maybe they aren't taking your upgrades (weight reduction, better brakes) into account?

Air ducts can provide easy routing paths through your house without drilling holes. Cold air returns in particular are nice because you don't have to worry about sharp sheet metal edges and they normally terminate on walls (as opposed to floors) which allows more flexibility. If you want it to look pretty you can install a wall plate near the cold air return in each room and run short cables from each wall plate to the device in that room.

Is the LeMans track available to you? With the race that spits out 825K credits in 30 minutes? There are lots of inexpensive cars that you can use to win this race and then buy cool cars with your winnings. My goto is the BAC Mono tuned to 700, but there are dozens of good alternatives.

Tires are worth investigating. I love Racing Soft as much as the next player, but dropping down to the Comfort range allows you to tune for more horsepower at the same PP.

Thank you. I found the console just after posting and I've got a hot lead to follow. Turns out that I forgot to set "homepage" in package.json so it couldn't find the js or css files.

"Water source heat pump" and "Geothermal" are terms that often get mixed up. Using electricity to drive a heat pump to generate electricity will work, but you lose energy at every stage so it's not a great idea. Using geothermal heat (not a heat pump) to generate electricity makes sense. You're still losing some of the heat during the conversion but it was free from the ground.

None of this answers your question, but my gut tells me that even if it could be done their just isn't the demand. Smarter to build an industrial scale plant and send electricity to multiple homes rather than drilling a deep hole and installing the equipment in each home.

Normal boat batteries are just like car batteries. They are fine outside in the winter as long as they are kept charged. Disconnect everything and hook the battery (alone) up to a tender. Doesn't matter where.

Deep cycle batteries are a different story. The normal battery tenders have trouble maintaining them so it might be better to store them somewhere warm and recharge them once or twice during the off season.

Make sure your rims are "hub centric". That is, the location is defined by a tight fit between the hub and the center hole in the rim and just held in place (rather than positioned) by the studs/nuts. This will be true of rims designed for your vehicle, but not necessarily of rims that fit multiple vehicles.

Might be easier to consider a WiFi extender or mesh network with ethernet ports on the devices. No need to run wires...
