Well, TikTok *is* a virus, so...

Many faxes end up as email attachments. This thread is hilarious and is feeding much amusement on a telecom industry list. “What consumersassume incorrectly.” Carry on.

Also, I should not have used your "clear text" misnomer above, but was trying to speak the same language. A fax is a bitmap. It's literally one little pixel at a time across the page in lines. In fact my first fax machine had a single sensor that was drawn across the page, which sat on a...

Completely false, as they generally go to the same places and on the same wires. Again, I do this every damn day. They are unless you've purchased specially secured machines and everyone uses them. In the context of a random person faxing their doctor or lawyer, they are necessarily clear...

That is a great advantage if someone really needs to do it. But if you CAN use 240v, it will be more efficient. High motor usage at 120v wastes a bit of power. Not enough to matter if you are limited in outlets and would have to install one. However you're possibly mistaken on thinking that...

To put a fine point on this, you have to expend effort to try to NOT have your email secure.

This whole thing devolved with an erroneous claim that fax had some form of security. Fax is never encrypted in transmission. Email is *mostly* encrypted in transmission. There are fewer opportunities to grab an email off the wire. It takes more technical ability to find that email among the...

LOL, I said "reduces." What's your Zoom ID?

It was probably a $300 model sold for $20 with a missing cord.

We’re going on 15 years on a used drier that I bought for $20. I can’t make an $800 purchase make sense. Also, working from home reduces laundry a lot.

LOL. I’ve only been doing it for 30 years, one day I’ll get to your level.

The email is encrypted. The faxes are by their very nature unencrypted and there is no way to send them encrypted.

Europe has insane electric rates, so that makes sense. Although I’d rather not waste out cooled indoor air, the math on a payback is much lower at 5.1 cents per kW.

And some electro-shock therapy.

That makes a lot more sense than leaving those connections live (and deadly). I haven't seen the previous thread you referenced. I confirmed no voltage on them. Two of our e-bikes have battery-integrated drive systems, meaning the battery and drive is from the same vendor and they talk. No...

There is no neutral on the mobile connector, that's just a safety grounding point. You do not want your 400v car on a floating ground. The communication connectors tell the car everything about the supply. So with the mobile connector, and the correct pigtail, that tells the car the charge...

Also, wouldn't the mobile connector be AC? The box seems way too small for anything really smart and it doesn't really heat up like a rectifier would. Voltmeter will come out later if it stops raining. I bet neither have any voltage until BOTH talk to each other and negotiate the connection...

When you connect a Tesla to a generic charger, does it go through a rectifier? Do you have reason to believe there is a way for the car to choose the path? And if so, wouldn't that mean a "disconnect" has to be employed to switch? The most logical path is connector to charge management, and...

There is probably no "connect" at all. I would expect that the input voltage starts into a rectifier and control circuit, which then goes to the BMS. I don't believe there could ever be voltage out at the connector, that would be beyond insane. But, I will go test it myself if it stops...
