  • First off, thank you for the advice.

    The reason the handyman gave for installing two fans was basic, to improve the dispersal of hot air. My partner and I concluded that removing heat would be the most effective first step to decreasing the temperature of the house, but we can be talked into considering insulation first. We'll look into leak patching and into insulation.

    Do you happen to know if during the winter months, if insulation would significantly block the house from being heated by the sun? We are looking to get a heat pump in the long run and originally planned to have the insulation done at the same time, but in the meantime, winters can get cold here and any heat we get goes a long way.

  • So the product he is installing, on Amazon, says it runs off 120 volts. Here is the link to the amazon listing.

    I appreciate your comment, and I agree and understand that some appliances function better off of 240 volts, but with this extra context, wouldn't this particular fan not benefit from a 240 volt line because the unit is only rate to operate at 120 volts? I believe this would damage the fan, or outright destroy it.

  • Each fan would be 1500 cfm. I'm guessing the attic is about 3500 cubic feet.

    I forgot to say this, but the current circuit, as far as I can tell, doesn't connect to the breaker box. The lines are dead and the attic ventilation fan hasn't worked since we bought the house. The fan doesn't spin smooth when manually rotated, so we assumed it needed replacing.

    The handyman originally insisted on installing a 240 volt wiring and circuit breaker. I don't know much about electricity but that set off red flags. I have no problem going with higher gauge wiring if the cost is cents more, but there is no reason to run that many amps unless we're plan on charging an electric car in the attic.

    Thank you for your comment.

  • A lot of AI art is highly controlled. Control net, manually redrawing the noise to guide output, additive models just to name a few ways artists control the output. It's genuinely more art that some people give it credit.

  • Every season has at least one or two good episode. I loved Season 27, Episode 4 "Halloween of Horror". I think if one was to watch the top 20 episodes of the last 20 years, theyd have a great time.

  • Having watched the season... no. There are a lot of really bad takes in this video, but what stands out is the horrific wolf attack scene being deep when it is just basic shock and very unevolved.

  • Lalo lost because he likes vlogging. So much for the scary powerful smart killer.

    Gus left the safe house because he planned that Lalo likes vlogging. Impossibly improbable. Beyond stupid.

    Natcho dies because he wasn't smart enough to come up with a better plan despite frequently demonstrating that he's smart. I can understand being unable to run from your problems forever, but his ending was the laziest way to show that.

    Jimmy and Kim were just passive observers in something that didn't really involve them. Kim has a life before Jimmy, and the boring life without Jimmy is unfitting of her character. Jimmy never had an expressive turn that justified his change of heart. It was unearned.

    Genuinely lazy writing. There was no point for any of these characters to exist. By far the worst final season of a show to ever exist. So much potential wasted.

  • Did you like that all the character building amounted to nothing? Jimmy, Kim, Lalo, Gus, Natcho all didn't evolve or have any intresting endings that used their character. You could have replaced every of them with completely new characters during the final season and it wouldn't change anything.

  • I wonder why I found True Detective unoriginal but I suspect it's because I grew up on The Simpsons where philosophy and metaphysicality frequently is the joke and plot of an episode. Maybe a perspective that expanded on and challenged common modern thought would have made True Detective interesting to me, but as it was I felt it lacked insight and purpose. The show didn't personally expand on anything I knew to be true.
