  They are, but in some places peak winter load is worse than peak summer load and with ACs running in reverse replacing oil furnaces things can get worse than expected

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could heating oil subsidies be reduced or replaced with subsidies for installing electric heating and houses.?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Resistive heating is a waste of energy. If you people can use your AC units as heat pumps, then we’re getting somewhere, if your grid can survive that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would a metal gazebo be safe during a lightning storm?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  is it grounded properly? it would be trivial to install a proper lightning protection on it with a little digging (sheet metal roof might be too thin to conduct lightning current safely and without damage. not a legal advice. consult your local building code)

  AI is your friend here.

  nah pass im good

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do tires have the width and diameter they do?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  higher center of gravity, which is more stable.

  you sure about it chief? bigger wheels also have larger rotational inertia

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do tires have the width and diameter they do?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah this sounds like “all else equal” case but all else is very much not equal

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do tires have the width and diameter they do?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The larger the tyre (diameter), the higher the top speed achievable practically

  this only holds when it’s using the same transmission?

  as of width, here i think tradeoff is that with wider tire you can use lower pressure, and if it’s wide enough, also lower diameter. with lower pressure i think there might be less wear (?) but also bigger width means there’s more rubber to flex and that means energy losses by this mechanism. this is why it makes sense to use wider tires where all the power is not supplied by user

  For 1 these metallized emergency blankets work much better. Aluminum foil also works but it’s not as durable when put outside

  maybe you have some kind of natural evaporative heatsink nearby (trees)

  you can open windows during night, as long as night air temperature is tolerable
