I’d love to see a schematic. I’d highly recommend to make sure you have plenty of esd diodes and protection resistors on all inputs. That’ll help the longevity of the system.

I see the antenna points straight at ground and buttons. Is the wifi ok?

Cost is a reason. You need to dig out that dirt (which is expensive), it needs supports, your house needs support around it/through it… Making things bulletproof and massive runs opposite of cheap

Practically speaking any person cannot maintain that for significant length of time. Dieting has like a 99% fail rate by year 2. It’s hard to maintain that for many people — your body will keep you in starvation mode, keep you hungry and h

Well everyone would. How many would you buy if you could turn around and sell them for $30k easily lol? It’s like saying “well if Subaru launches a nice hybrid suv for $1k it’ll sell like pancakes” and yeah.. but it costs more in steel&#x2F

> and having extremely predictable payments for years I’d argue rental is more predictable. Housing has a huge amount of upkeep — $10k ac, $5k water heater, $20k roof…

I’ll need to check my notes on power consumption. I’ve spent quite a bit of time trying out different modes and configurations… it’s not great. I would not expect years at all. You gotta be very careful about what has to stay on and off. Fu

The value of electricity is extremely time dependent. You can easily overproduce solar power for your house during the day fairly cheaply. However batteries + gas generators for cloudy day quickly make the cost significantly higher. The gri

Citation needed. Edit: it’s absolutely not true universally and it’s ridiculous to suggest it is. Comparing averages will be very tricky as well.

> cheap buck from 40~80V to e.g. 5V. That’s not a cheap buck lol. Order of magnitude more expensive then 12v not even mentioning capacitors that can withstand 80v is $$$ and your derating goes to shit

I keep making the same mistake. How do you make intermediary planes?

Isn’t that less efficient in power and can have different color?

>If the goal is consistency, then wall-clock isn't the simple way to do it. It’s simpler than doing a limit on number of states, and for some applications consistency isn’t super important. Doing a time limit also enforces bot movin

You can get an n100 system for $110 on sale. Price went up but I still see $135 on eBay now. However YMMV because Europe prices are different For power I don’t know about orange pi 5 but for many SBC power was a mixed bag. I had pretty bad

Yeah but you can get a n100 on sale for about the same price, and it comes with a case, nvme storage (way better then sd card), power supply, proper cooling solution, and less maintanance…

>I experience that and just sit with it. That is the difference. Other people might have it worse and it might stay with them longer. Could you keep it up if you were 10x as hungry as you are now for next 5 years?
