What an insight, he must be a tactical genius.

Move your lightly cupped, relaxed hand behind the fly. Then suddenly accelerate and grab the fly that got startled into flying into your hand by the movement.

Or a lost little dog that misses its master.

I only know 16 amp breakers (~3600 W), not sure if lower current circuits are commonly used in Germany. In my experience every socket can power devices like a toaster or lawn mower, so they're all suitable for such solar inverters.

Modern meters take that into account (and you'll get one by the energy provider if you don't have it already when you tell them you installed such solar panels), everything that's used in your home gets balanced against what you produce, regardless of which specific circuit uses / provides energy. (Only immediate usage though, and if you add a battery that can save your excess energy instead of feeding it back into the grid you roughly quadruple the cost so that's quite a bit more expensive.)

Individuals owning their own means of energy production is obviously unamerican.

Although I hope they also considered what happens if there's two of them on a circuit

The regulations allow only for one. If you want a bigger install than that you need individual approval I think.

The question is, how much data? From their description it seems that it gives less data than conventional tracking. If you use an adblocker you won't interact with ads anyway so there's nothing to track either way. But if you don't and this new method needs less data and still satisfies advertiser "needs" (wants), isn't that a good thing?

Nothing, some people just dislike the slow pace of its development or some design decisions and fork it (and in the process remove or break less used functionality, like Podcini can't read any feeds on my old Android 7 phone).

So what's the open source alternative you found? Sounds like it needs more advertising.
