Older houses burn oil for heating the house and water but even most of them have heatpumps installed. New houses usually also have heatpumps or geothermal so direct electric heating is more and more uncommon. Apartment buildings generally all have district heating and even some private homes do.

Yes it's expensive but so is everything else too. Our houses are way better insulated than in most places though so that helps a little.

We've had negative 20 temperatures for over a week which happens about once every 10 years so the demand is extremely high and on top of that few of our powerplants are out of service for maintenance so that electricity has to be bought from abroad too.

Few cold days in a row is not an issue as buildings still have heat stored up in the structures but when it lasts for a long time the demand for more heating goes up drastically.

Mistä otat siihen virran? Itsekkin noita katsellut, kun alle 200€ saisi valmiin paketin, mutta suurin kysymysmerkki on tuo 12V ja 5A virrankulutus. Jonkun virtalähteenhän sille joutuu hommaamaan.

Surprised it's not encrypted in the first place. You haven't been able to listen to police communications in Finland since the 90's. I would assume most of Europe is the same way.

Se on vissii laitettava kynttilöitä päälle sitte oikein urakalla. Nyt jo ei mökki lämpene yli 18 asteen ilmalämpöpumpulla ja yhdellä sähköpatterilla. Näinköhän melkein kannattaisi yöksi pistää lisälämpöä, että saisi vähän puskuria huomiselle.. Noh.. Tähän asti olikin päästy melko helpolla

The friend’s coworker did it daily for months

That's both extremely stupid and irresponsible but also quite impressive on Tesla's part.

What do you mean it clearly isn't atleast somewhat close to ready?

Full Self Driving is still in beta stage.

AI DRIVR has good content on Tesla FSD if you're actually interested in knowing how good it is.

Most collisions with pedestrians usually happen in cities where there are no cars driving at 110kph. For 99% of cases this can be avoided by paying attention to your surroundings. This applies to both drivers and pedestrians. I "save" the life of several people a year by not driving over them when they just blindly step on the road apparently assuming what ever moves there is going to always see them and stop. For the vast majority of time this is the case but then there's an exception an now you're dead.

In general people crossing the road can be divided into three groups. Group A looks both ways before crossing so that they don't get hit by a car. Group B looks after they've already stepped on the road to see what kind of car they're getting hit by and group C doesn't even care and just stares forward.

I wish I could do that. Currently I'm trying to start a bussines, but my mind just keeps coming up with the most unlikely terrible scenarios that might happen and convincing me to never try anything new so that I can't fuck it up.

Isn't this the same hospital Israel allegedly leveled a few months back?

Edit: Nope, it was Al-Ahli Arab hospital.

One does not really need US intelligence's confirmation to undestand that the use of human shields is standard operating procedure for islamistic terrorists. It's not that they don't care about their own citizens but they simply don't see getting martyred as a bad thing. Quite the opposite.

Ei pelkällä ILP:llä lämpene torppa yli 18 asteen näillä keleillä ja sähköpattereita ei raaski laittaa päälle. On sitte villaa villan päällä ja sähköhuopa kovalla käytöllä (on muuten extreme tason cozyä sen alla)

I'll let you, OP borrow my brain anyday if you'd like to experience what it's like to live always expecting things to go wrong.

This is the sole reason my gaming rig is now running on Ubuntu. I have never had Linux on my personal computer before but since I was forced to update the OS anyway, I thought might aswell give Linux a shot.

It's not difficult. I've installed several apps that way already. I just don't like blindly following instructions while having zero understanding of what I'm actually doing here. Also, in this case the instructions are unhelpful because nowhere it tells me to install curl first and because of me not having it the first command just comes back with an error.

You seem nice

I made this thread because I try to learn/understand

I have a Macbook, it's what I use the most. I used to have Win7 on my gaming rig but Steam dropped their support for it so my options was either to go with a newer Windows or try Linux. As all of the games I play seemed to work on Linux with just minor tweaks I thought I'd give it a try. So far I'm really happy with how to OS works once it's set up but it's the setting up part that's really confusing to me.

What annoys me the most with installing apps this way is that I have already installed several and while having been succesful I still have no clue what any of this does. What is sudo? What is apt-get? What is repositorie? What is package? I just don't know what any of this does and blindly following instructions isn't teaching me anything. When I try to looks for explanations or tutorial videos I'm just met with more jargon that I don't undestand. GUI is really intuitive for me as it helps me to visualize what's actually happening but playing around with terminal is really abstract and confusing. If I'm met with an error I'm completely stuck then. Only troubleshooting I can do is to make sure I typed the command correctly.

Really appreciate your replies dude. So many are being a bit of an jerks here, but you (and few other) have been really helpful.
