However, the COW nature of ZFS seems to be making the filesystem use up the free space and fragment it heavily. I do see that the allocated space is mostly staying the same, so it's not increasing disk usage. The application is mostly making UPDATEs, but Postgres should be able to reuse the space already on disk (as it makes dead tuples and autovacuums them, it will re-use those pages). I even created a new ZFS pool and moved the data there using zfs send / recv, in order to defragment the full space and try out some new settings which might limit fragmentation, but to no avail. Generally, it works well, but I am finding that my ZFS pool is fragmenting heavily. It is possible to build on this setup and add automatic failover and promotion of the secondary to primary by using FreeBSD's CARP and ifstated mechanisms.I am running a write-heavy application where I am storing my Postgresql on ZFS. If you use the config file info in the gist, it will then continue to use PostgreSQL's built-in streaming replication to keep itself up to date. It's usage is pretty simple (on secondary): $ sudo /path/to/reset_secondary.sh Īfter the script has run, the secondary server will be running off of an up-to-date ZFS snapshot. The reset_secondary.sh script (and ancillary config file info) is on Github. In order to take advantage of efficient incremental replication, the secondary database server must first transfer an initial snapshot of the ZFS filesystem holding the current PostgreSQL data directory (this builds on the first requisite above, to be run on the secondary server): $ sudo ssh -i /home/zfssync/.ssh/id_rsa zfs snapshot sudo ssh -i /home/zfssync/.ssh/id_rsa zfs send -Rv | sudo zfs recv -Fv data/pgsql Coup de grâce pgpass file for your operating system user.

![]() Once you know your electricity needs, find a wind turbine and site location that will meet that need. Alternatively, if you’re looking to offset only certain appliances with wind power, the Department of Energy’s Appliance Energy Calculator is a good place to start to calculate the electricity demands of specific appliances. If you’re looking to meet most or all of your electricity needs with a small wind turbine, you can determine your electricity usage by looking at past electricity bills. The first step to determining the right size for your wind turbine is knowing how much electricity you want to generate. How to size a small wind turbine for your property At $749, it is also one of the lease expensive overall on our list without any add ons. This turbine 2000W from Missouri Wind and Solar has 11 blades which contributes to its exceptional cost savings at only $0.37/Watt. Lowest cost per watt: Missouri General Freedom II Wind Turbine ![]() They can be particularly useful for small, off-grid energy applications, like boats, RVs, and more. Wind turbines that are smaller than 500 watts are referred to as micro wind turbines. ![]() Most of the products below cannot produce enough electricity to power an average home but can be useful in offsetting a small portion of an electricity bill. For instance, off-grid systems require a battery to store electricity, and a charge controller to protect the battery from overcharging. The additional components you need to purchase depends on the setup of your wind turbine. Among similarly-sized wind turbines, price differences are largely due to additional components included in the purchase such as charge controllers, poles/towers, batteries, or cables. The table below shows how small wind turbines vary in price across different power capacities. When it comes to buying a small wind turbine for your home, it’s important to compare different products and how they vary in regards to price, design, power capacity, and equipment offerings. In certain instances, a small wind turbine has the potential to offset 100 percent of a home’s electricity bill. Most of the best spots for small wind turbines are on rural properties, as they tend to have a lot of space and few obstructions that would impact wind speeds. Generally speaking, the taller the turbine, the windier the environment and the more electricity it’s capable of generating. The best locations for small wind turbines are places that experience frequent, high wind speeds. That makes small wind turbines perfect for projects with smaller electricity needs, such as residential, portable, or off-grid applications. Because of the smaller blades, these wind turbines have a much smaller power output than large turbines. While larger wind turbines can have a blade diameter that spans the length of a football field, small wind turbines typically have a diameter up to 10 meters wide. Small wind turbines, sometimes referred to as home wind turbines, are much smaller than the turbines you see on wind farms. These numbers do not include any federal or state incentives. Most homeowners using a wind turbine as their primary source of electricity install between 5 to 15 kW of wind power capacity, meaning they can expect to pay between $15,000 and $75,000 for their small wind turbine project. In most cases, the larger and taller the wind turbine is, the more expensive it will be. However, the cost of installing a small wind turbine can vary depending on the size of the system, the height of the tower, and the equipment you buy. One renewable energy technology that’s becoming an increasingly popular alternative for homeowners looking to generate their own clean electricity is small wind turbines.Īccording to the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA), small wind turbines cost between $3,000 to $5,000 for every kilowatt of power capacity. However, that does not mean that you won’t be able to generate clean energy on your property. Not every property is suitable for solar panels. ![]() However, the newer models like my GoPro Hero5, Hero6, Hero7, Hero8, Hero9, Hero10 and Hero11 have a unique wifi password created, for example, band6123.

One set to a poor local family and the other to a rich family just passing through. IMDB Synopsis: In the 1940s in the small town of Jupiter Hollow, two sets of identical twins are born in the same hospital on the same night. Watch it for a good chuckle but remember, not ALL West Virginians are activists fighting to keep the strip mines from destroying their local business while loving a professional putt putter and having a sister that can yodel like an angel. She delivers my favorite line of the movie: I got on my Tuesday panties today. When walking through the office on their way to confront the evil New Yorkers, Country Rose is aghast at the lengths these folks will go to dig up information on them. All the while, people around them “know” them and are calling them by name (which will happen with twins named the same). She believes that they have been bugged and followed. From ex-husbands to Italian investors to professional putt putt players, this movie has a man for every woman (or twin).Ĭountry Rose is a believer of all things conspiratorial. ![]() You have a heart the size of an unsoaked pinto bean!Īlso coming into play are the various love interests of the women. Rose (Tomlin) regarding NYC: It’s a dangerous, dirty, low down place. In an additional twist of fate: the poor father overhears the rich father naming his girls “Rose and Sadie” and decides to name his girls the same.įast forward into adulthood where one set of twins now runs their father’s company and are deciding whether to shut down the factory while the other set of twins are “in the hollow” and have decided to come to NYC to the meeting of the shareholders to plea for the survival of the factory (ironic point #2 – they talk about strip mining as if it is an evil – living in WV, mining was not spoken of as an evil as it was a way of life for too many people). In a comedy of errors, the elderly nurse accidentally switches up the sets and “one of each” is swapped around. Problem solved: the rich man marches across the road to the owner of the plant and buys it from him (ironic point #1 – some rich guy, who needs something right now, buys a WV commodity with ease and without care of how it will affect the locals). The hospital where the rich couple find themselves try to turn them away as the local furniture plant dictates who is allowed to be seen there. The movie is about a rich couple (wife expecting), traveling through the backwoods of West Virginia when the wife goes into labor. It reinforces the stereotype that we all chaw tobacco, break out in square dance at the sound of a banjo and talk like Nell – but it is not the worst as far as hillbilly stereotypes go. I had completely forgotten that the bumpkin twins were raised in Jupiter Hollow, WV (just down the road from Jane Lew). So, we decided to watch Big Business (this decision came as we were scrolling through Lily Tomlin options). My friend Nau and I decided we needed a lighthearted silly funny movie this weekend. However, if you have not seen this movie and it has been out since 1988, you have no argument.

The Net Nanny program protects your children from potentially harmful content, by filtering websites through real-time contextual analysis. However, be aware that the VPN will sacrifice speed for content. In this way, Net Nanny will lose control of your browsing habits. Once installed, a VPN will allow you to change your IP address to a different country. Moral of the story? Not all internet filters are created equal.One way to bypass Net Nanny is to use a VPN, which can be downloaded to any computer or mobile device. In addition, Net Nanny gives parents more control (based on settings) by allowing them to embrace technology in healthy ways, yet also making sure that their family’s values transcend device, app or platform. This experiment clearly demonstrates that Net Nanny gives kids better protection than its competition. The results were clear – Net Nanny was the only service that the kids could not get around: Net Nanny stumped the children. To find an effective real-time filter like Net Nanny is increasingly important to protect your kids from content to which they should not be exposed to.ĪBC-TV’s “Good Morning America” (GMA) recently conducted an experiment to find out whether children could get around two different parental controls software, Net Nanny and Qustodio. There are a number of ways to outflank an internet filter, and with the excess of inappropriate and explicit material littered across the internet, what your kids see can be dangerous. This way, proxies and IP addresses won’t work for kids protected by Net Nanny. Luckily for the parents, Net Nanny is capable of checking a web page’s content in real-time, regardless of how the user arrived at the website, so it can still block inappropriate websites and can block all proxy websites. Teens are increasingly tech-literate, and many can perform a subversive operation like this with ease. Alternatively, kids can go to a proxy website, which is a web page within a web page that can hide the IP address, in order to surf the web anonymously. They can use that instead of the website’s name to gain access. Now, you don’t have to worry about blocking your kids from potentially educational wikis, which could be helpful for book reports and school projects, but you can still ensure that any stumbles into less-than-acceptable pages on the same site are minimized.īesides exploiting holes in an internet filter, teens can also find out a website’s IP (Internet Protocol) address, which is a string of numbers that identify the site to other computers. The benefit of Net Nanny is the ability to check pages in real-time, so it can filter out any objectionable material, while still allowing access to individual pages that are appropriate even within the same website. But the truth is, there is a lot of objectional and inappropriate content on Wikipedia – especially since they cover any topic you can imagine. Most filters allow these types of websites, which can have objectionable material because they do not have the ability to search and examine web pages in real-time. The most famous wiki is Wikipedia, which gives anyone with an account the ability to edit any subject. One type of site that most internet filters don’t block are those with user-generated content, like blogs and wiki pages. Don’t worry though, if you are using Net Nanny we already have this covered. This could make circumvention very easy by simply finding new sites or sites that are well known enough to be indexed in a list. Many internet filters don’t even bother blocking certain types of websites because there is no way that the filter can know if the content is truly inappropriate or not. This blog will make you aware of some of them. Net Nanny makes it almost impossible to get around them, but there are still some circumvention techniques. ![]() Some kids will break the rules simply because the rules are there testing the limits is not only fun for them, but it’s a part of learning boundaries.
