Should I Ditch My Gas Appliances? They’re a big source of greenhouse gases. Here’s what to think about if you’re considering switching to electric. in c/[email protected]

Depends if it was built originally as a gas fireplace. If it was converted from a wood burning fireplace to gas, it can be converted back.

You could also remove it completely and turn the space into a secret storage room!

Supply prices will rise if only because more people will be gardening out of need.

It didn’t resemble a Nazi salute. It was a Nazi salute.

Low engagement and tends towards geeky grumpy right wing old men. Or Germans.

The Moment of Truth | The reelection of Donald Trump would mark the end of George Washington’s vision for the presidency—and the United States. in c/[email protected]

I see. So you can’t tell the difference between a shark and a boat.

This attitude mystifies me. When you’re swimming in shark infested waters, do you worry that the only viable boat around isn’t aimed exactly at the vacation destination you dream of?

Or are you unable to tell a rowboat from a man-eating shark?

Ubuntu on an Intel MacBook Pro-how to get trackpad to work? (lemmy.world)
 

Pretty much the title. I’ve got an old (circa 2012) MacBook Pro with no screen that’s running Ubuntu, but since day one of the install it has never recognized the touchpad. I’ve been using it with an external mouse, which works, but it’s much less convenient and elegant than if I had even basic touchpad use.

Any ideas on how I might make this work?

V2H in the US?? (lemmy.world)
 

I think I've done my research, but damn if I can find what I'm looking for in the US. Even talked to my installer, who had nothing.

From what I can tell, my sole option for V2H, using the vehicle's batteries to back up the house, is the Ford Lightning. Maybe the Mach-E?

In fact, what I'd actually like is a CAR. Not a crossover, not a SUV. An actual CAR.

  • The Lightning is WAAAY too much "car" for me.
  • Best I can tell, Polestar is only "testing" V2anything.
  • Kia/Hyundai only has V2L.
  • Volkswagen ID4? I'm unclear.
  • Mini has nothing.
  • Leaf has something, but leaf is too little for being useful in terms of KwH.

Again, I'm in the US. And I already have an Enphase solar install, so I can't totally switch to some other sort of turnkey soup to nuts solution. I don't have batteries for the house, and want a vehicle that can be that as well as a mode of transport.

I'm also not an electrical engineer, so what that guy in this forum who built his own rack of components to make V2H work with his Ioniq is not something I can do.

Any help?

I’ve got some that are correct, some that are 90° rotated, and some that are 180°.
