I had to look up, USB PD does work with a USB A port.

That being said, I personally want to get to a single type of cable so any I get can be spares for anything I have, so I like USB c to be all around.

That ALSO being said, I doubt I will ever get to all USB C.

Side note, USB PD is awesome because I know it can do up to 240w. (Last I knew.) That is 48v at 5a, so I am not sure what they can do to squeeze out more wattage.

Why not just use Bandcamp? Even with nfts someone has to maintain the CDN. Alternatively, run your own site.

There is still a solution for that, solar + battery. I would love to have one myself, but solar alone can be a bit expensive on its own.

Just want to post a pic of a 20a 220v US outlet for those who don't know about it.

It fits in a standard box, so you don't have to use a dryer plug if someone wanted to feed power back in through a outlet. (Of course with a device designed to feed in safely.)

I know enphase micro inverters have "anti-islamding" tech that disables output when they lose grid connection. I would expect any reputable manufacturer to also have the same tech.

I don't expect that for backup generators, but the proper way for them is via a transfer switch. You can wire in a properly made cable instead of a suicide cable. The transfer switch would prevent the inlet connector to the house from ever being live. (And since it is a proper cord from the generator, there would be no exposed ends coming from it.)

Those oh no's made me remember "Oh no you didn't" from Mercenaries 2. Had to listen to it.

Unrelated, but in wanted to complain about being reminded of the song. And now I want a Mercs 3...

Okay, that is awesome.

Pretty sure it was the movie Repossessed with Leslie Nielsen that taught me this one.
