It very desperately needs a wash, but if ever there were a hat that screamed out ‘nerrrrrrd!’, this is that hat. #RetroComputing #HighFashion

Oh wowwwww! Here’s something from a very specific era: a blobby graphite external FireWire CDRW drive.

The Guardian: are heat pumps more expensive to run? https://www.theguardian.com/business/article/2024/may/13/are-heat-pumps-more-expensive-to-run-than-gas-boilers

Me, just the other side of my first winter with a heat pump (with oil rather than gas, mind you): no!

The house has been consistently more comfortable, too. Turns out I really like how it runs at a lower temperature longer compared the on-scorchingly-hot-then-off of a gas/oil boiler.

Not to mention how much the cats adore the giant warm-but-never-hot radiators :D

billgoats,
@billgoats@bitbang.social avatar

@penguin42 That is... an unexpectedly awkward question ;) Oil you buy per litre on the open market when your tank runs low, and prices flail around like you wouldn't believe. I'd typically stick £150-200 aside for it each month.

billgoats,
@billgoats@bitbang.social avatar

@penguin42 You’ll have to look that one up. I was also needing to replace a major part of my system as well anyway, so had the decision of whether I’d be tied directly to fossil fuels for another 15-20 years or not too.
