Then in a lot of places (check your local tenancy laws to be sure), you're legally allowed to get someone in yourself to do it (or do it yourself) and deduct the expense from rent payment.
I complained about that part too, and 8bitdo doesn't seem receptive..
I mentioned it to them and they were very helpful... They specifically sent me a beta firmware for the reciever that allows me to toggle between Switch mode and Xinput mode by holding Select+Y or Select+X respectively.
I'll see if I can find the file ...
Sage Barista Pro. Really happy with it to be fair.
It goes on sale fairly often so you could save £100 or more on the price I quoted.
Sage Barista Pro. Definitely an entry level machine, but I'm very happy with it... I'm not invested enough to go for a dual boiler or higher end machine quite yet - They start to get very big and very expensive very quickly, and I have limited space.
I genuinely almost did!
Not branched out into different brewing methods yet though. I've already claimed enough kitchen surface space, my GF will kill me!
Coffee.
I blame James Hoffman entirely.
Within a year I went from:
Drinking instant coffee at home, but really enjoying "proper coffee"
To
Buying a cafetiere (~£15) + preground coffee
To
Buying a Nespresso (~£60 on offer) + pods
To
Buying a budget espresso machine (~£120) + preground coffee
To
Wasting my money on a cheap manual coffee grinder (~£50) + beans
To
Immediately replacing it with an entry level Sage grinder (~£170)
To
Buying an entry Level "proper" espresso machine (~£700)
It took me a good 2-3 weeks of practicing and dialling in before pulling a good shot of coffee that I'd actually want to drink, but by that point it was also about learning a new skill, learning how different aspects of the process affect the end result and learning how to make all sorts of different espresso-based drinks.
My girlfriend thought I was nuts at first, but a year or so later even she agrees it was worth the investment. I still for the life of me can't get the hang of latte art though.
The problem is now though that I'm a waaaay more critical of coffee from coffee shops, because I spent a long time making bad coffee whilst learning!
I just got back from a business trip to China also. The high proportion of EVs, particularly in the southern cities like Guangzhou and Shenzhen really stood out to me, and many of them (particularly from BYD) looked really, really nice. They seemed less prominent in the more northern part of the country (e.g. Shenyang, Beijing), but even there I'd say they're more common than in the UK.
It was a real eye opener
Not sure I understand this point. Which resistor would you replace with a diode?
Sorry, I think I was talking nonesense (doing this in my head and just woke up 😅).
Not sure it'll work with just a P-FET actually. You'll likely need to control the PFET with a NFET, otherwise you still end up with too high a voltage on your control pin when the FET is off due to the gate pullup (unless you can use a fet with a very high Vgs Threshold and then drive it push/pull from the micro, but this isn't really best practice).
The above comment about diodes was to protect the microcontroller pin, but you end up not being able to control the FET doing it that way.
I think either your existing Option 3 or PFET upstream of the divider, switched via an N-FET is the way to go.
Could you do similar to diagram 2, but instead of an N-FET use a P-FET between the battery and first resistor in the potential divider?
~~Add a gate pull up resistor to source to ensure the FET is off by default, have the micro pull the gate down to take a measurement. You'll probably need to add another resistor on the control pin to 0V to limit the voltage there also, but those two can be much much higher values to really limit current. Or use a zener/TVS diode instead of second resistor to clamp the voltage instead of dividing (more robust).~~
Switch it with an NFET
The micro will see 0V or divided/clamped battery voltage on the measurement pin.
If the average person cut out 100% of their carbon emissions for the rest on their life, they'd save, on average, the amount of CO2 that industry creates in ~1 second. Our personal emissions are but a drop in the ocean in the grand scheme. Change is best brought about by voting both metaphocally with our wallets and literally with our ballot papers.
To be fair, Elden Rings difficulty slider is the same as any other RPG... going off and doing other stuff for a bit until you're OP for the part giving you trouble.
Also summoning people (or even the seamless coop mod that allows coop all the time everywhere) that's also an effective difficulty slider.
I have some of those too. Problem is they're nowhere near as efficient at cooling as ice cubes are and never cool my drink enough. It's the melting (phase change) process that does the majority of the cooling with ice cubes, which you miss out on with these solid blocks.
I forget the exact maths, but a quick googling reckons it takes something like 84kJ to change the temperature of 1kg of liquid water by 20K, but changing the temperature of the same amount of ice from 0K ice to 20K water takes nearly 420kJ, or roughly 5 times more energy, which is why they're so much better at cooling drinks...
