Phone numbers are reused all the time. Stop paying for your phone service for a year, and your number gets assigned to someone else.

Have you never had the experience of trying to contact someone using an old number, and having someone else answer?

Many appliances can be scheduled to run at a later time. So you can set your dishwasher, washing machine and maybe your oven for some kinds of cooking to run even if you aren't at home.

I hope that things like pool pumps and hot water systems, which are already on off-peak rates, will be making use of this time.

There is a reason you might replace your 10 year old panels - you have limited roof space, personal demand for more solar power, and the higher output of newer panels will make you more than the power upgrade.

But if you do, you'll find a ready second hand market for those panels.

It just means that they'd prefer to get up and go to bed a bit earlier. That probably waking up in the dark in winter is worth an extra hour of light in the evening.

Beginning work as late as 9:00 - with a quarter of the average daylight gone - isn't really optimal. You could say this is already out of sync! Historically people get up nearer dawn.

Electric vehicles are silent in the car park, which is a hazard for pedestrians. There's a good argument that cars should make a sound in this situation, so people are aware a car is moving or about to move.

Apart fro that - yes, the lack of noise, vibration and harshness is a big advantage - and also a design problem, because without engine noise rattles and tyre noise become a bigger issue.

That cap is everyone who wants to buy a car, minus a small group of enthusiasts who mostly buy classic cars second hand anyway.

There are many who can't afford electric cars with the range that they need, but technology is quickly solving that issue as battery research and improving mass production reduces costs.

Unlike IMAP, POP allows you to maintain a local copy of your mail, a copy that is isolated from the server.

For many reasons, people prefer that to IMAP or Exchange, which will delete mail from your local cache if it is removed from the server, and accessing that cache independent from the server is also a challenge.

Thankfully, this isn't Gmail dropping POP support for their users. We will still be able to get emails into Thunderbird or Outlook using POP. What is going away is configuring Gmail to use POP to pull emails from other accounts into the Gmail inbox.

Seems clear that they received a legal demand that included a non-disclosure provision. While they may not be a provision established by legislation for this in Switzerland, judges usually have a fair amount of freedom in writing injunctions.

The only reason I can think of for importing semiconductors, apart from manufacturing, is if you are a repair shop, or if you are a hobbyist.

What is the point of heavily taxing repair shops and electronic hobbyists? Aren't they two things that we want to be encouraging?

Sorry, I must have typed that on my phone.

The module was replaced twice since that advisory was issued, for reasons not related to the switches.

The advisory was just to inspect the switches, and while that advisory wasn't carried out at the time, the module including switches has since been replaced. So the advisory is moot, the inspections having happened either when a referbished module and its switches were serviced, or by dint of a new module with new switches being installed.

...since that advisory was issues, for reasons unrelated to the switches. Hard to see how this advisory would be relevant.

So it is hard to believe the AWD will prove relevant. A faulty module would have had to pass through a repair shop with a faulty lock, multiple times.

It also says that they transitioned 'with a time gap of 01 sec.' The wording tells me that it was not just adjacent timestamps. Could be, however; but I'm concluding that it wasn't about half a second or near 2 seconds.

> The FAA issued Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) No. NM-18-33 on
December 17, 2018,..... the throttle control module was replaced on VT-ANB in 2019 and 2023.
However, the reason for the replacement was not linked to the fuel control switch.

So the module has been replaced twice since that AWD was issued, so very hard to see how this cold be relevant.

No fractional parts are given, so we have to assume it is near a second - probably not a half second, nor near 2 seconds.

Videos of the pilots running the startup procedure of similar aircraft show that moving both switches to on normally takes about a second
