I remember fixing a graphics card years ago in the oven. Stripped all the heatsink and other removable parts off it and baked it for 15 mins or so. It reflowed the solider joints nicely and worked for several years afterwards.

First thing I though when I saw this brand. 'Seal', 'Dolphin', 'Seagull'. They should have perhaps asked a agency to brand these cars a little better.

I've got a similar setup with a SDR tuned to 433Mhz using rtl_433. Really useful as the range is massive and it picks up all kind of devices; temperature sensors, weather stations, tyre pressure sensors.

There are other benefits to this too. With an electronic lock you can display the state of the toilet to other passengers on digital signage screens onboard the train. You could do this with physical locks but it would likely be more costly.

If you don't want to shell out for the pricey stuff, Aruba InstantOn and Meraki Go APs might be an option.

Those are two sides of the same coin though. More durable machines (solid, thick components for example) will be heavier and in the example of a washing machine will require more energy to move. Washing machines have also become much cheaper than 40 years ago, making them more of a disposable item.

It's entertainment podcast first and history second but the sources are always listed and it's usually pretty well researched.

Cisco isn't exactly known for their software innovation in the upper stacks

I spend most of my day managing Meraki networks and some of that is seriously powerful and innovative.

MS Teams is down 3 years ago

They are previewing a new version at the moment, it's quite a bit quicker and can switch between organisations very quickly too which was always a pain in the old version.

Pubs can be nice places to go to without needing to drink alcohol. In Britain there are some fantastic pub buildings and gardens.

Personally I meet many of my friends in pubs and the alcohol isn't a factor at all. We manage to have deep and meaningful conversations often.

How do you know that you wouldn't have the same capabilities if you didn't do those things?
