  I’ve found it hogs a bit of resources so I shut mine off until Plex crossed a line

  Looks like that day came sooner than I expected

  What run command did you use? Any resource constraints?

  I have a friend who is just so damn stubborn when it comes to mixing up their “comfortable” things if they aren’t the one to come up with the idea

  Very frustrating

  Yes, I’m afraid so. Some of the concepts will still apply but it’s most likely wiser to get a EU-specifc or country-specific book if you can find one

  Black and Decker makes a series of books that are pretty good, I’ve been enjoying them so far. Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Wiring

  I’ve also found various books from thrift shops to supplement as well as various resources from the internet

  That statement presumes knowledge of GFI that I did not have - load side means nothing to a layperson

  I’m leaning the science behind home electricity. I want to install an outlet in my bathroom for a bidet but I realized I didn’t understand when and where I needed a GFI outlet. So I’m learning via a handful of books

  Similarly, I want to add another outlet in the basement for my cats’ automatic litter box.

  I also just replaced my Nest doorbell with a “dumb” doorbell but the chime won’t work. So I need to do some research on how the chimes work…

  This is superb. My wife has been fediverse-curious ever since the election, and last night she created a Pixelfed account and was so disappointed her feed wasn’t immediately filled with cool stuff. I tried to explain some of the points in this guide but I don’t know if I did the most convincing job.

  I’ll send this her way and see what she thinks
