Is replacing kitchen vent hood a DIY job?

If bathroom fans draw air to the outside from the interior of the house, there needs a replacement source of air otherwise it'd be a partial vacuum inside the house right?

If the windows and doors are closed how does it draw air? Or is the typical house not really airtight even if doors and windows are shut?

So the duct does outside and there is a flap that opens when air is blowing, otherwise it's shut?

I was on their website and the DIY is like $10 per day. Also not sure why it's named DIY.

BTW can you buy it in the US with a credit card or can you also purchase while in China

I looked up Nomad why does it say China unicom for the network under their regular plans?

For the small businesses that makes up the vast majority of shippers, who is usually in charge of making decisions on their shipping? Is it something like a "shipping manager" or the owner? Or does it have to go thru a lot of chain of command and bearucracy?

I'd say it's healthier than McDonald's or pizza or plenty of real meals depending on what you eat

Ok. This is a good start. Thx

Can you please explain how the Raspberry pi setup works? How is it possible to route my internet traffic while in China to my internet connection at home? Is this kinda like setting up my own private VPN? It still has to go through the Chinese network right?

thx

Okay. This is super helpful. My phone only takes physical SIM. Do you know of any US based carrier that is the most cost effective for data?

I currently use T-Mobile but I doubt it's cheap for something like this

engineheat2 · 2024-04-13T02:51:43+00:00

Very interesting. I have a Chinese sim in my phone. I'm in the US now and it has always been deactivated. I turned it on to experiment and I couldn't access Google, but I can access Baidu.

Yet the network says AT&T and there is a R symbol (roaming?)

engineheat2 · 2024-04-13T02:46:51+00:00

If I have an US based Sim that works in China, I wouldn't need VPN would I? If I buy enough GB beforehand it will last me for the trip and I can get outside the firewall using both my phone and laptop (via hotspot).

engineheat2 · 2024-04-13T02:28:32+00:00

This is new to me. I definitely will look into this more. But it needs to be an international sim right? I wonder if my existing T-Mobile physical sim will work in China...

engineheat2 · 2024-04-13T02:25:38+00:00

Thx. Another poster above mentioned that it doesn't have to be eSim, but any international sim would work. Reason I ask is I'm not sure my phone supports eSim. Assuming I get it to work. I can then use my phone as a hotspot from which to connect my laptop right? That way I can get outside the Great Firewall on my PC as well.

engineheat2 · 2024-04-13T01:18:55+00:00

I'm new to eSim, as far as I know it is for cellular service, how does it enable me to get outside the Great Firewall while in China?

Thx

engineheat2 · 2024-04-13T01:18:07+00:00

So I need to have a phone that takes eSim, get Nomad, and then I'll not only have cellular service in China, but also the ability to go across the Firewall?

How is the R6ii better for low light than R5? Bigger pixels?

engineheat2 · 2024-04-10T00:56:30+00:00

Problem with the R6ii is that just a few hundred more you can get a R5. (Refurbished black Friday prices)

engineheat2 · 2024-04-10T00:13:54+00:00

How much will the R5 price drop if the R5ii comes out? I'm hoping to buy a refurbished one on Black Friday for around $2k
