I live in a pretty old house in the midwest, built 1929, bought in '21, single-story, ~1300ish sqft, and with a large, spacious basement. Every time summer comes around I've had issues with the basement getting MUCH colder than the rest of the house (like >10 degrees F difference), presumably due to poorly-insulated floors and...
If you pull air from the basement, it's going to get replaced with warmer, wetter air from upstairs. As it cools the air is going to deposit that water on the coolest surfaces. You might be trading this problem for another, more damaging one.
We already have "biodegradable" plastic made from corn starch. It's not truly biodegradable, I reserve the right to wait for more information about whether barley starch is any better.
You're already familiar with Kodi, so install that on your Android TV. I have an Nvidia Shield with Kodi, and it just plays movies straight from my server. You should be able to use the TV's remote to control Kodi without worrying about the VPN.

NHTSA references several SAE standards in their regulations, but they don't update the references very often, if ever. Many of the referenced standards date back to versions from the '70s and '80s. Back around 2012 I contacted SAE to find out if they provided a package of standards incorporated by reference in NHTSA regulations. I was told they don't provide such a package, and they couldn't even sell me the individual standards I needed because they were "out of date". My only option through SAE was to buy the latest version.
Shortly afterwards Public.Resource.Org posted the standards, and I copied them. But I thought they had lost their court case.
Options for equalizing temperature between the basement and the rest of the house in summer?
