You can leave the handle unlocked, and just use the deadbolt this way.

This is how I have locked my house for the last like 100 years without a smart deadbolt.

It’s neat in concept, but such a waste of material over stick framing.

Also, do you need to bust out the impact drill every time you want to hang a photo? What it you need to move an outlet?

Also also, what happened if you foundation shifts, like at all?

And how’s the insulation on this? Nothing is thermally broken, you’re gonna have a good amount of heat going through those rounded corners.

Unfortunately that’s not how the other 20% works. Cleaning up the grid and eliminating wasteful energy are both important things to do but don’t always overlap in terms of outcomes.

When dealing with grids with lots of renewable energy, that first 80% is the easiest because you aren’t nearly as concerned with seasonal variations in availability.

Eliminating waste doesnt change the fact that you might see a week or more of clouds and low winds in the winter making it hard (not impossible, but exponentially more expensive) to close the gap.

And eliminating wasteful energy use in times of relative excess availability doesnt change the fact that you may still need to power your fridge or a heater in the winter.

I give it 2 months post-release before they introduce loot boxes, P2W mechanics, or Sims-style never-ending DLC.

Says a lot about game industry churn that 6 years earns you “veteran” status

How do I get this but solar punk?

Ehh, they’re meh. Give me a Stardew Valley or a Minecraft any day over something like Valorant

Respectfully, this software could solve all my problems in life, and I would still struggle to ask my friends to “federate with my continuwuity server so we can chat”
