Yeah the place I'm at now was like 'great your somebody that we can move around/learn things'

You can just change careers whenever. No one cares. When I was younger it seemed so set in stone like you learn a trade you're a plumber for life. Go to college your major is what you're doing for life. It's not true I knew a philosophy major that was working as an elevator engineer. Do HVAC for 20 years then do something else. It's fine

I didn't turn it off but that scene in Farha with the baby was brutal when you have one in the room with you

Ah to be a teenager again

Learned about it when they banned chapo. The chapo fork wasn't a good fit for me. Mostly hang out on twitter and use this to post articles or look for longer discussion

Idk its pretty easy I'm usually tired and bored as shit

Open but these fire comments have me reevaluating

Correct

Was talking to my friend about this the other day in the context of trade school but I think it applies here: you can change careers whenever you want. When we were younger it felt like such a big decision to pick a trade or in this case a major because it seemed like you were locking in for life, but you can just like... go do something else. No one cares. Someone wanted to hire me as an engineer the other day and I struggled to graduate high-school. Education is kind of a shotgun approach. You get a really broad understanding of a lot of thing because your actual job will probably only use a fraction of it and they're trying to prepare you to not be completely lost wherever you end up.

Also old teachers are really lazy and the test is probabaly pretty similar, if not identical, to the one they gave last year. Good to know people a little older or save things for your younger siblings.

What you're too fancy to divide by 25.4 or multiply by .0397?

Pretty sure my phone already does this you just have to pay google a fraction of a penny to see it

The horde aspect might make it easier. The ones on twitter at least you can tell are just running the same script through a thesaurus basically. 20 people leaving the same comment is a little more obvious than just one

I started finding gray hairs around then

I like doing stuff in the yard but if we're calling that chores, idk get high go fishing, maybe float on an inner tube with some beers

Yep. My final phone to have one came with this app to control it that was straight malware. Force click a pop up every time you open the app type shit. I still miss it

It took me way too long to realize when someone asks how my weekend was it's because they want to talk about their weekend

Like once a year we get an article about how the us military is too reliant on Chinese parts in their supply chain lol

If you're just worried about rust I'd say do it yourself it's not that hard

Yeah local stuff keeps me there. Even that's getting worse, every local station/paper has 5-10 bots replying to every post with completely off topic right-wing stuff.

It's still a good place to follow news. Shits getting bad though. Ads are way more intrusive than they used to be and it's like 90% credit card scams or explicit white power stuff

20 degrees is just a rule of thumb most ACs have a specific temperature change they're designed to do. You can go past it, that's just what the intented to do and it might not work as well or be able to do it. Fwiw I'd always heard 30 degrees farenheight for most window units. Had an hvac guy explain it to me years ago but fucked if I remember how it works

E: not sure why I'm getting downvotes this is like a very common thing. Google it https://frederickair.com/home-comfort/reduce-the-stress-on-your-ac-with-the-20-degree-rule/
