Basically yes.
It adds some efficiency because once you have a radiator full of hot oil in the radiator it tends to release the heat for a long while after the electric is shut-off.
Most electric space heaters send a plume of hot air arcing upwards.
You end up with a nice heat storage device to radiate warmth at the level you want to use it for longer than a normal resistive space heater using the same energy.
This is the same layout as the device I was referring to:
If you’re asking in good faith… Most of lemmy.ml is a tankie echo chamber that silences or outright bans any dissenting discussion.
Try bringing up the facts surrounding Russia, China, Cuba, or North Korea…

You’re right.
If they have a heat pump, it could be cheaper to use that over all.
*Edit: It’s electric resistive heat on a central air system.
If you’re in an area that doesn’t freeze you can keep the house cold and heat one room with an electric oil filled radiator very inexpensively.
If you’re in a place that freezes you need to keep the house warm enough to avoid freezing the water pipes.
Otherwise have fun, heat one room and bundle up everywhere else.
They said oil filled radiator, not oil burning. I expect it’s a very efficient electric heater like these:
If they are trying to keep one room warm and don’t care about freezing the rest of the house those are very efficient.
Great; more extended sequence CGI montages, coming to your nearest IMAX theater.
I’m good after 2 worm sessions. Thanks.
Fair point.
As a note, I don’t recall all of them saying ‘Windows Server’ in the top left of that page.
Watch it. Starts shortly after 44:34 on the timestamp. That should be enough context.
I searched for “One Rough Hour” in the transcript to find the section.

That didn’t last, lol. He has said he was ready to go for another debate in the last day or so.
Do learn to count, as there are less than 11 who upvoted you at the time of my comment. 10 to be precise. So 9 people agreed.
Not sure how you declare their understanding otherwise. Is your source also ‘trust me bro’?
You’re a breatharian? No corpse munching from you.
Are you pure enough that you feed the bacteria in your body without suffering?
I was responding to you Coggy.
There were drills where you were taught what to do in the event of a life threatening emergency.
There were talks about nuclear events and preparation for scary things.
There were school shootings before columbine.
People didn’t have national and international news poured into their faces as easily before.
I’m not sure how I missed that from their first post. /s
I get it, you’re scared. Noone was ever scared like that before.
And - Rudolf Wild invented the drink in 1969
Columbine was far from the first school shooting. According to the Washington Post:
“The first recorded school shooting in the United States was in 1853 at a schoolhouse in Louisville, Kentucky. On November 2, 1853, Matt Ward shot and killed teacher William H.G. Butler with a pistol hidden in his coat pocket.”
Pro tip: block 2 trolls that can’t see past their nose to have rational discussion in the thread.
You can replace the OS on most Android devices.
Specifically- devices made by Google have been unlocked allowing replacement of the software.
You still have to put together a working kernel and drivers, environment, etc.
Not much stopping folks from doing that though.
GrapheneOS, Ubuntu, and others have made headway for some devices.
Each device potentially uses different hardware implementation and features.
Or, maybe writing firmware and code that doesn’t make money is the opposite of profit.
Where is the incentive to write code that reduces security and costs money they won’t recover ?
It has its uses.
Like most bespoke items they’re good at some things, not everything.
It’s nice if you’re trying to keep an indoor living space warm for a longer period, like overnight.
They typically have a thermostat setting on it to maintain the temperature.
It doesn’t make the same noise as a blowing space heater, as there’s usually not a fan. I’ve heard creaks and such from them.
As noted, the radiative effect can last for a few hours depending on energy loss in the space.
