  • I think the subscription overload has to do with the whole 90s kids are the only ones who know how to build and fix computers. We know how to go out and find alternatives or roll our own services. Hell we invented digital piracy so we are comfortable with not subscribing.

    I only subscribe to two services, Google storage so my family’s mobile devices can auto backup and Spotify because I like the suggestion engine and it’s easier for my kids to stream music. For everything else there’s piracy.

    So then there is this new generation that are clueless in tech so these companies can nickel and dime them because they don’t know any better. I know I try to teach my kids how to use tech but they just don’t have an interest like I did.

    Because if they slow down people won’t upgrade as fast because the manufacturers pledge “X number of versions” updates not years. So if Google slows down manufacturers would have to support longer. Gotta keep that money flowing in because Google gets a cut of sales.







  • It used to be only created through yaml but they recently added it configurable through UI. I have had my basement dehumidifier using one for about 3 years.

    Just a warning be sure to give yourself at least a 30min run time and a long enough time between runs to let the coils warm up.

    Too short of run time will burn up the compressor and too short of off time will freeze the coils and ice will build up.
