You might want to look into opening up a iban account in au for exchanging money. There are several companies that could facilitate that, e.g. wise. You'd probably end up with a euro account in Ireland that way and a aud account to exchange to. From there on you just suck up the conversion rate to aud on a regular basis and you transfer aud to aud.

Bank transfers for private persons in the eurozone are free, highly secure, simple and fast. For businesses transfers are usually a fixed fee, regardless of amount (couple of cents).

Just wait until you watched a certain little Britain sketch. "Bubbles" will be forever etched into your mind.

It really depends how you define reliability. SD cards are physically nigh indestructible, but can show failure when overwritten often. Hence for one off backups it's actually a good alternative. It will start showing problems when used as a medium that often writes and overwrites the same data often.

I would recommend backups on SD cards in an A/B fashion when you want to give a backup to someone else to store safely.

I don't understand why the ads are so absolutely boring and stupid. It's also the same ad over and over again. I mean, make an ad which is a story line which you run throughout the game. At least make people laugh.

Back in the day I bought a fridge freezer combo, second hand, no handles. Used to be a built in model. As handles I used two magnets from full height drives, they were ludicrously strong and shaped like a little bit like a handle.

Full height drives were 3.25" high for those who are wondering.

Keep in mind that traffic in the US is simply more dangerous then in Europe. Traffic in the US consist of a large number of pick up trucks which are heavy and not designed to be friendly to other traffic in an accident. There are more factors, but my key takeaway is accidents versus deadly accidents.

You can read measurements without going to the device itself, instead, you use a phone or similar. This also means that a device doesn't require a display. Consider an outside thermometer as example. Home automation allows you to draw a little graph giving you a good idea how cold it got. Let's add another measurement device, say a radon meter. Again, no display needed and you could stick it somewhere less accessible.

You can make home automation as silly or useful as you want it to be.

One logs into the VM and starts checking the files of course. Go from there.

Curious, you might want to look into what's generating your data first. It's easy to generate data, it's harder to only keep the data that's useful.

Curious, you might want to look into what is generating your data then first. It's very easy to generate data, it's a lot harder to only generate and keep useful data.

I"d argue along that division in a democracy only is a strength if there's enough division to warrant coalition. Without enough division it can become an us versus them game with neither side willing to find common ground.
