This has been common in Sweden for decades, I had it in my previous house almost 20 years ago. If I remember correctly it was a 100m borehole. The only limitation is that certain soil/rock environments work better than others, so it’s not suitable for all locations.
Heated our house in northen Sweden just fine in -20/30C winters.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's an aspect of your job that college didn't prepare you for?
22·2 years agoIt’s a little unfair to criticise a CS course for not being a SWE course. But I agree that graduating students in CS without having covered the basic requirements in the SWE day job most of them will move into is a disservice.
I did CS (30 years ago) and things entirely missing in the syllabus back then:
- any and all soft skills
- version control
- refactoring
- testing and the value of testing
- staging and replicated environments for raw dev, QA, live, etc

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your experience with security USB sticks (such as Nitro- or Yubikeys)?
13·2 years agoMy experience with my yubikey is that it just works. I know that’s not terribly useful info, but it’s really all I have after several years of occasionally using it. Oh, it’s been on my keychain all that time so isn’t terribly flimsy.

Maybe not quite so much these days. I use Outlook at work, but that’s been the limit of my MS contact in tech for a few years now (apart from the odd Teams meeting I’ve been invited to). It used to be worse in terms of lock in, IMO.
I have a brand new Apple product with both a headphone jack and an SD card reader.
To be fair it only has HDMI and not a VGA connector, and there’s no floppy disk drive or serial port.
Everyone loves to hate.

43·2 years agoWhen Argentina occupied the Falkland Islands, the UK military who fought them weren’t described as a terrorist organisation. Not by anyone with an ounce of sense at least, and certainly not by the islanders who’s land and homes had been occupied.
I agree from the opposite direction:
20 years ago I switched to zero drop minimalist footwear for running, hiking, and almost all everyday activities (everything except weddings and funerals). I only wear footwear that has no relation at all to my foot’s arch, my weight, or my gait.
Best decision for my knees, ankles, and hips I think I ever made.

tl;dr: it’s relative. shock.
If it wanted to work harder, it wouldn’t be going to Europe… 🤔
Perhaps worth pointing out that the attacks require the attacker to position a piece of hardware between the Qi charger and the power source.
