I was once renting a room, where due to part my lack of cleanliness (basically not throwing out garbage frequently enough, i waited for a week or two) and my rooms window being right above a flower bed (and i kept the windows open for the most time) and my room being moist for the most time (i dried clothes in my room) I got lots of small red bugs (hundreds or thousands). they did not bite, but they were annoying. I had a few bad weeks, so i also did not care about them at the time.
To get rid of them, I had a multi part strategy, basically 1 was trying to physically force them out - by raising the room temp to high, and cycling window open and close, and also cleaning out my room better (taking garbage every 2 or 3 days), worked partially well (maybe more than half gone). Other was to use a chemical irritant (i used a mix of dettol and water) to spray on their usual spots, and llet them be dry otherwise, and stopped drying clothes inside. Once I got to getting rid of them, I got it in a week or so.
Also where i live currently, it is musquitos. They are everywhere where I live, kinda a public health issue which is largely outside our scope. I cant really do much against them. General advice is to keep surroundings clean and minimise their breeding spots. My folks do try to kill them with the zapping rackets, but that is almost lost cause.
my take away was never hating person in photo (that part was just in case we are hating the person in photo, but my second para in the original comment is what i got - old relegious person is rude to service worker). I have not experienced it, so i can not relate, sorry.
In our home we have "coolers" (the big kind with metal bodies and large water storage, and padded, perforforated walls). It is outside our house and blowing air inwards. We try our best to seal the area around window with lots of cardboard, fibre sheet and thermocol, and then depending on time of day, confining the space (by closing other doors in home). It is not AC cool, nor is it really effictive when it is hot (50+ C) outside, but other time it works fine. In the nights it does a pretty good job (good enough that i have caught a cold right now). When we do not want the noise, we just run the water pump, so occasional winds from outside come and are cooled by the running water. Water usage is slightly high (we usually require one filling a day, which would be 40-50 litre water i guess), but we sometimes keep cycling between pump on and off to conserve some more water. If noise is a big concern to you, you can try to basically cover whole of the front (with some sound insulating material, like fibre sheets(the polymer ones often found in packaging)) and then make some side channels for air. Or something more simple is using lighter curtains just in front of cooler. This will break the flow of air, but if you have sealed rest of the are, so air can't leak elsewhere, then you would get air breaking its flow and flow around the obstacles and reach you, but not as loud. We do something similar, we have not covered fully, we have left partially open (60 % i guess from the middle) but to cover noise, we partially close it by window (which is kept in place by curtain over it) so we get a tighter channel of air (as it bends around the edge of window). If you stay in the channel, you get large air flow, but more noise, but if you move away from it (from my casse, even by a foot) then the noise is cut in half. The rest of the room is now cooled by this air current mixing with rest of room air. If room is large, t=you may also have to turn your ceiling fan on for this, but we do not have to.
In really peak summers (and peak hours of the day), we use ac for few hours (1-1.5 or 2) and when it gets cooler outside, fall back to cooler.
I am sorry for your experience, but generalisation is what i did not like. I am not in us, or a place where christianity is the major relegion. The behaviour may be region specific, but still, this seems wierd to me.
i don't have high blood pressure, thankss for the concern though
i know it is a stock photo (did not know, but guessed), but can i still not find it wrong. i think my original point still stays, hating random old people is not fun to me.
I am not religious, and I am not old, but this does not sit right with me. I don't know who the person in photo is, but we are "hating" on them just because they look old?
I understand it is a "meme" and i should laugh at "stereotypical karen" but is not that one of the things that people state they disliked about reddit?
if it is fresh then most likely not, i have had very fresh eggplants (3-4 hrs after getting from field) and it had spots. I am not sure, but i think it is fine, but if it is old, then your hypothesis can not be ruled out easily
eating eggplant for years, it is fine - a general rule of thumb - if if looks good, smells good, doesnt seem wierd to touch, and does not taste bad, it is probably good (does not apply to wild berries/leaves/mushrooms).
sorry i am unware of it. I looked up, and from github page they are are remapper. They are great too, but they are a additional thing to install and run. For layers, you can already use keyboard shortcut to switch between predefined layouts in most setups, but thanks
Probably make a fixed deposit with the principal of 1 Million, and then after a year, (Assuming annual interest rate of around 7%) I would get 1.07 million, and give you 1 Million back, and still have USD 70,000, which is still a good amount to get for free. If we get quarterly interest rate, it would be slightly higher, so will try for that

you can use pressurised air to clean the duct. Some verterbrates like to call it farts
