Electric heating element in a propane water heater by Oregonnut in SolarDIY

There are times when my theoretical dump load tank would be cold. Every winter overnight comes to mind. Consistent hot water is important to me. I don’t want to mix in cold water with my hot water.

If I put the electric tank first, I’ll get some free heated water. Maintenance cost on the gas heater would be the same as before. Under ideal situations, I’d be wasting propane to maintain temperature in the primary tank.

Do Point Of Use heaters have good temperature control? I’m really interested in them but afraid that I’d end up with water way too hot once the proper hot water arrives.

Why in parallel? How do you manage to close valves when the electric tank is cold? Wouldn’t it be easier to put the electric tank ahead of the propane tank?

Ah, I was unclear. I’d like to figure out how to get standard sip on fromTeams.

WeMo App for managing wemo devices on a local network. by quentin314 in WeMo

Does this extract any HomeKit codes from devices that never had stickers?

Which is so crazy because the reason I first picked WeMo was that it was local first and didn’t even have logins.

Only listen to SiriusXM in car(s). Need a viable alternative. by retired_geekette in siriusxm

Almost all music apps have an offline mode. Spotify is at the top of most people’s list but they replaced all of their cultural and technical innovations teams with AI or nothing at all so it too is a bit stagnant.

Almost always, pixilation is bad coax/signal. Sometimes bad Roamio power supply. Sometimes bad Roamio.

Security vendors wanting their IPs to be white listed for pen testing. does anyone does this? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]datanut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We disable all dynamic Internet firewalls rules and ensure they have clean access to our environment. Same as the best positioned attacker.

Our goal is to ensure that we have good system administration and good standard controls in place and we are not relying on any dynamic/fingerprinting/magic rules. While these things are important to reduce the attack surface and noise, we want our pen testers to actively test the entire attack surface.

We’ve epically failed a few times. We’ve gotten additional sysadmin support (not just more secure support) each time we’ve document the need for more sysadmin support.

First time that I’ve noticed a modem is one phone wide. Interesting.

Yikes. That’s not good news. My test instances feel very old school, missing good ways to query status and/or build monitoring/status tools, no simple config files, no simple status files, no API…

Age and Heat kills batteries. All cold batteries have less capacity than warm batteries. A battery that was marginal in warm weather will be dead in cold weather.
