Thermal curtains are a godsend. I remember reading about your journey and I hope it works out! I think it'd be money well spent. In my last house, I replaced single pane windows with properly installed, sealed, and insulated double-hun

I actually live on the same latitude as Ontario so -40F/C is not unusual. Add in windchill, and it gets even more common, given my windy location. Yeah, I understand I'm probably an outlier at 66F. I was using the numbers more to

What? They store the surplus in their batteries during the day and use it at night. I genuinely do not understand why people are so afraid of solar. It's baffling.

Proper windows make a huge difference, too.

I live in a northern climate and I know multiple people who are net zero with solar+basic battery. Proper insulation and good windows go a very long way. For instance, I set my heat to 66F during the day and 60F at night. When I wake up in

Is this an exploration or a joyride? Don't get me wrong. I'm excited about it but are we looking to get anything of use out of it beyond, "Neat"?

Did you have any warts when switching? httpx has been "fine" for me but this thread has me seriously considering changing to niquests.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who gets annoyed by this. I was once at a table with someone who was eating tomato soup by putting the spoon into their mouth, bitting it, and then pulling the spoon out. I was losing my mind liste

American here, I haven't owned a microwave in over a decade. I think OP is just an outlier.

The "type" is simply the get-rich-quick schemers. I have a relative who was late to crypto, late to drop shipping, late to carbon credits, but is now absolutely all-in on AI as his ticket out. It honestly depresses the hell out of

Was it about closing the labor delivery? Social media forums abounded Tuesday with requests for advice stemming from a screenshot of a memo saying that Landstuhl Regional Medical Center’s services for labor and delivery were suspended u

Daily multivitamins are the quintessential Pascal Wager, in my opinion. There is no reason not to take them. At worst, you'll just urinate the excess out; at best, you'll supplement missing vitamins in your diet.

The AAA maps are pretty great. I keep one of their spiral bound maps of my region in my trunk just in case.

> How did people manage this prior to 2007? MapQuest? It sucked. Google Maps does allow you to download areas to your device that can be used offline, too.

I remember when it first became widely known that the government could see your library checkouts. People protested. It was a big deal in my tiny town. I don't even think it would be even a blip on the radar now. It really is depressin

Also remember to watch your sweat levels. As soon as you start sweating, start shedding layers to bring your core temp down.

Oof, you just reminded me of the Ice Storm of '98. I can still hear all the trees just exploding. It was wild.

I mean, obviously not? Why else would I miss it? I was living in Bath, ME wherein I could walk to multiple bars and restaurants, a farmer's market, gym, two different grocery stores, as well as the town riverwalk. I currently live back

The hardest part about the conversation with regards to the smell of weed is how quickly you can become noseblind to it. I don't smoke weed but I had a roommate in college that smoked in the apartment 24/hours a day. The first wee

A specific one that I'll never forget was actually a House Hunters International episode. It was years ago but the pin being off by about 400 miles burned it into my memory lol I think they were moving from Market Street to Amsterdam.

Neat. I'm skimming the documentation now and it looks like something worth keeping an eye on. I have so many long-running scripts that I sometimes set up with TUIs or quick PyQt/PySide GUIs but the GUIs always seem overkill and th

Simple, lazy stuff like that always drives me up the wall. The HGTV show House Hunters used to be wildly inaccurate with their map location pins. On more than one occasion they'd say a couple is from the Bay Area but when they show t
