  • You need fans to blow the air OUT not in, and create a chimney effect between opposite sides of the building.

    A small out blowing fan can be enough, if run all night.

    Blowing out will cause air to be sucked in from the opposite side. Having multiple fans will only mess up the air flow and reduce the efficiency. Better two fan on the same outgoing window.

    Of course, that will never cool down more than a few degrees above outside temp because walls thermal cycle will bring inside day heat at night and bring inside night cool in daytime. Specially thick or well insulated walls are designed to do exactly that.

    So yes walls will warm you up at night, that is not avoidable. A well insulated wall will do that instead of bringing heat in during daytime… But heat is there and must be dissipated that’s physics. Night time is the best option.

    Edit: blow out at night. During daytime blow around, best way to keep cool is move that hot layer of air that get stick to your skin with a fan. Same temperatures but so much more bearable.


  • In Italy all coast and so also beaches are public property

    But … Historically many coastal towns kind of rented the beaches to families who built empires on overcharging customers, blocking sea access and also issuing bogus rules like to external food.

    Now there is an European directive to which Italy should adhere that imposes those beach concessions to be actually competition and not assigned by divine rule of birth.

    Of course, the families whose main income is that, and who used to live 12 months from the income of June/July/august, do not agree.

    While still illegal to block import of food and public access to the sea, in many places it happens.

    Also, in many places there are publicly accessible beaches with infrastructure (showed, toilet, bar…) bit those are not the touristy spots





  • Not really, apart from some software algorithms I guess. Totally different stuff, they use a perimetrali wire with radio signal to detect borders and can work up and down slopes and have much more advanced security measures since we’ll your pet tail might be in the way. Also more security as those might be snatched by thieves walking long side your lawn … And they are built to live under rain. Hail and scorching sun.








  • No. You cannot. The digital id I was referring to can be activated only via app, and banking apps are mandatory. You can do web banking paying an additional fee and using sms authentication, but as I said it’s an additional fee. Maybe worth paying for, ymmv.

    But the real practical of the digital id is that I will never be (again) fined for driving without a driving license with me because I always have my phone with me. I usually have also my real driving license, but sometimes I leave the wallet home or whatever.

    It’s just practical stuff, you can do without, but why should I.


  • Yes. Provided you find a phone that can unlock the bootloader and you are fine in losing banking app, government issued apps and such amenities…

    Given that Samsung and Xiaomi doesn’t let you unlock anymore… Unless you are ok giving money to Google to buy a pixel, new or used, there are really little choices currently. Nothing phones, a few motorola (hit and miss…).

    For example, we have digital ID that you can load on the phone your ID card and driving license, which is not allowed on unlocked phones. Also, McDonald app doesn’t work on unlocked phones …

    So good luck hoping people will use custom Roms, even less than before. Google is fucking us a small step a time.
