If you live in a dry climate you can create a makeshift evaporation cooler with a fan, tub, water pump, and evap material.

Set it up in front of an opened window, blow it into the house, and open a window at the other side of the house. You can easily get 20 degree F drop in temp.

I’m on a drug that’s $3k per month and my insurance only pays a few hundred of that, even though my benefits claims it covers 100%. I then applied for a coupon card which when used covers the remaining amount.

It doesn’t make sense because it’s all made up fairytale pricing.

The few hundred my insurance is paying is probably closer to the real cost but even that isn’t trustworthy.

Foot long chili dogs.

Mayo mixed with a spicy chili sauce.

Everyone left. There’s nothing the state can offer to keep the most productive people. Most ended up going to California.

The ones that returned became educators.

I re-ground mine to 15 degrees and they cut great when sharp but require more upkeep.

They don’t talk to me and I hope to keep it that way.

Government workers should have wages and benefits that go up when the economy goes up.

Apple has always had a better PR team.

Tesla hired the lowest bidder from a different county to do my roof for $8k

3 years later I’ve got a few quotes all over $20k each to redo their bad work and $8k in repairs. They are evaluating their options.

I wouldn’t say they are underrated, just niche.

Atari 800 basic.

Gentoo was the first distro I used for any significant amount of time (college).

I’m taking some welding classes later this year. Being able to fix or create things with a welder seems like a useful skill to have.

I suspect the intro classes are all the same regardless if you take welding into the art direction or the mechanical direction.

“Per our discussion, you do not want to hear anything more about updating from a windows 7 machine that is no longer being updated, no longer receiving security fixes, and is end of support, to my recommended windows 10/11 machine. You’re aware that I have advised you that not updating is possibly a HIPPA violation.

This email confirms that I will no longer bring the subject up again.”

That’s it. CYA and print that Sent item out. Move on to the next issue.

Time to buy more bread flour I guess.

AWD adds weight, cost, and traction regardless of the engine layout.

$$$.

Front engine, rear drive is easy to build. Good driving characteristics until you lose traction in the rear, which isn’t hard because there’s not much weight back there. You get over steer which isn’t the easiest to deal with.

Front engine, front drive is cheap to build. Good driving characteristics until you start pushing the limits, then you get under steer which is easy to deal with by letting off the gas.

Rear engine, rear wheel drive. Same cost advantages of Front/front but has some quirky driving characteristics.

Rear engine, front drive: nope.

AWD: better driving characteristics, more cost and more weight.

Mid engine, rwd: similar to rear/rear, but costs more, better handling.

Recycle it.
