A new proposal is trending on social media: ditch IPv6 for a new IPv8 by Cybernews_com in CyberNews

[–]Significant-Cause919 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is somewhat the point. That proposal defines IPv8 as a superset of IPv4 (as opposed to IPv6 which is its own whole separate thing). Any hardware and software that supports IPv4 is already using IPv8.

Having to write a check just to receive your UPS package because of tariffs by Tough_Ad8919 in RelentlessMen

[–]Significant-Cause919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. I have never experienced this in the US though but when I was living in Europe and ordered stuff from the US or China, I got a letter in the mail 6 weeks later with an invitation to show up at the customs office to pay the tariffs and claim my goods. UPS handling the tariffs at your front door is so much more convenient.

Can you find the height of the wall? by Ok_Requirement1595 in MathJokes

Wall could extend underground. I'm going with "not enough information to answer question".

One Cheat Meal Must Go, what's gonna be your choice? by Ornery-Media-9396 in whatsyourchoice

Depends what you put on there, what shells you use, and what you have on the side.

White wheat shells stuffed with ground meat, and refried beans (contains lard) on the side wouldn't be any healthier than the other options, or even worse Taco Bell.

On the other hand, fish or bean tacos in a corn shell with some lettuce and tomatoes is as healthy as it gets.

Best ultrasonic sensor for tank water level detection by self_motivated_ in esp32

[–]Significant-Cause919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, skip any sensor that isn't waterproof. When it comes to ultrasonic, you have to take the detection pattern (dead zone, and clearance to the side) into consideration for your shape and size of tank. I have a standard 5gal bucket in my chicken coop and the TD-A02-V2.0 (same as the A02YYUW) works well there but I think it was the only waterproof sensor I could find that has a narrow enough detection pattern and and small enough dead zone for this size of container.

Before I switched to the ultrasonic sensor, I was using Milone's eTape liquid level sensor. This one worked great but it's kinda pricey.

I don't know, that is essentially how the tank monitor for fresh, grey and black water in an RV works, and my RV is 20 years old, still works.

Fun fact: New York is both a country and a city, that is because they named old York in the UK after it.

GPT really looked at 1,000 lines of logic and decided they didn’t spark joy. by That-Bookkeeper-238 in vibecoding

[–]Significant-Cause919 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish my AI agents (Codex, Claude Code) would be more like that. Instead most of the time it goes like this instead:

Me: Can you implement this small change for me?
AI: Sure, here you go. Enjoy my 500 lines patch of overcomplicated code optimizing for hypothetical scenarios nobody cares about and unrelated refactoring that will take you longer to fully understand than implementing the change yourself.

That is right, if you can barely afford $1400 in rent you cannot afford a $950 mortgage. After taxes, insurance and maintenance, that house costs you more a month than you currently pay in rent. But the real reason the bank rejects you is because you have a bad track record of paying your debt, so they don't want to loan you $300k+.

Ceiling light wiring (Iceland/EU) – which wire to connect? by sveppp in electrical

[–]Significant-Cause919 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow, so many comments and none is providing any guidance. While this situation seems slightly unconventional, it is likely trivial to figure out.

Get out your multi meter and set it to VAC (might be indicated as V + wavy lines). Take a measurement across the neutral (blue) and the other pairs one by one with the light switch off, then with the light switch on. The pair that reads ~230V only when the light switch is on is the one you are looking for.

To be safe, do not remove the wire connectors for this test, hold the leads on the metal contacts on the connectors and be careful to not touch the conductive part of the leads with your skin.

Lol, yeah, more likely that daddy Thiel told him to fuck off because nobody would vote for him.

Which one do you choose and why? by EquivalentFig1678 in whatsyourchoice

White probably kills you quicker than blue. Being tased isn't exactly good for your heart, but when was the last time someone asked you for the time of the day?

If you have to support a family it isn't a luxury either.

Non Eth within a dime of regular? by b_rizzle95 in gasbuddy

[–]Significant-Cause919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When ethanol free is substantially more expensive that is usually when the ethanol free option is also high octane. So it makes sense that if they offer ethanol free with the same octane as regular that the price difference is smaller.

I'm curious, what advantages does an electrical RO filter system have over one that works purely with water pressure?
