A mall that’s only random clothes, shoes, and jewellery stores surrounded by an ocean of parking lot is very unattractive.

As you say, a mall with actually useful stores, like grocery, pharmacy, perhaps a restaurant or two (not chain fast food), etc, with residential units on top or very close to constitutes more of a community than a mall and is very likely to be sustainable versus the former.

“Ground, it’s Fred. Off to work. Request taxi to the road.”

“Fred, Ground, roger. Taxi bravo three, left on Juliet, cross runway 34 right, right on foxtrot to the gate. I’ll let security know you’re on the way. Have a good day.”

It starts early in the design process. But at that stage, it would be best to pause installation, have a mechanical engineer do the mechanical design (including equipment selection) based on an energy model and install the recommended equipment.

I work in building science. It’s obscene how little actual design and quality control goes into residential homes.

The typical design is just one step above being illegal, and people are often scared off of doing anything more than that by the threat of increased cost. However, they don’t realize that they pay for it either way; either on their mortgage, or on utilities. Only one of those you can actually own in the end.

Sorry, four of the power to ethernet plugs. You put one near your router to essentially supply internet to your house’s electrical circuits, then distribute the others where you need them, such as office, living room if you want to connect a TV or console, etc.

I had a set of four for getting ethernet around the few places I rented. There was maybe the odd quality decrease when there was a lot of electrical load, but they worked great otherwise.

I recently went this route after dabbling with other options. I had a wireguard VPN through my Unifi router, with rules to limit access to only the resources I wanted to share, but it can be a struggle for non savvy users, and even more so if they want to use Jellyfin on their TV. Tried Twingate too and would recommend if it fits your usecase, but Cloudflare Tunnels were more applicable to me.

About $11M USD.

This is mostly my reasoning too. I’ve got a bit more juice than a NUC, but I prefer the way resources are managed with an LXC for the certain apps that I run. I still have VMs for other things, like HAOS and a BlueIris NVR. It’s only a local homelab with no external users so avoiding additional complexity is often in my best interest.

Why would one prefer a VM over an LXC for Docker?

I might have found the issue, see updates above. I have a separate Docker LXC that was behaving normally too, so was good to cross-check with that.

Docker is installed on a Debian container with Proxmox as the hypervisor. I believe as far as Docker knows, it’s just running on normal Debian. The Debian LXC has its own local ip.

I’ll take a look at those resources though, thanks.

Many local libraries provide access to this incredible resource too. Check yours to see.

You don’t have backups set up in Proxmox?

While it doesn’t really apply to bamboo, this is kind of the way hedgerows are laid. The main trunk of the “tree” is cut most of the way through (called a pleacher), then laid on its side. New growth then sprouts from both the laid trunk, still getting nutrients from the stump, and the stump itself.

Check out coppice if you’re more interested. It’s pretty amazing what trees can do.

I feel like that’s the opposite of what we want. Perhaps a storefront where one could choose what they want from different providers for a reasonable price would be good, but consolidation leads to *opolies, which are never good for consumers.

It’s not OP’s website. Looks like there’s a contact form on the site though.

“You don’t need that fancy machine, I can do the job much better, and for free.”

Your username is quite fitting.

It’s amazing what a little curiosity can do. Most would consider the machine dead. A friend also had a similar coffee maker that stopped working and just decided to pop the cover off to see if there was anything obvious. A quick replacement of a deteriorated hose and they were back up and running when it otherwise would’ve ended up in the landfill.
