While insulation helps, it’s fundamentally less efficient because the heat sync is inside the building and insulation isn’t foolproof. And often these units are made of plastic, so they leak more heat into the house from the chassis than you’d expect. Even the best hose is less efficient than a window unit where the entire heat sync is outside the building
So while $20 and some duct tape helps a great deal, it definitely won’t be as efficient as a window unit
All I can really say is to avoid the floor models, since they put the hot part of the conditioner inside your home, thus have to work a lot harder

We get a meal delivery service each week and they use the giant ice packs. So I’ve taken to just keeping two or three in my freezer and then sleeping with a pack at my feet each night or carrying it in the car while I do errands. And I get fresh ones delivered each week. A nice way to recycle the packs
Who? That’s not not my name
Not trying to poo poo on the cute image, just genuinely trying to get better at reading cat emotions
The widened pupils means the cat is annoyed right? It could be just focused on some string off screen but, given the context, lil bro is about two seconds from ending this photo
I’ve always disliked plastic surgery, botox and heavy makeup. But that’s normal enough
My real hot take is I am disgusted by long, fake nails. They make my skin crawl. They’re so cumbersome, I truly don’t understand how people love with them
My dad did so much right, but his one failing was financial. He was an insurance salesman and had plenty of money when I was very young, but at some point it all dried up and he seemed unable to make more. He didn’t starve or anything, but at a certain point my brother had to step in and buy his house or he was going to lose it.
So now, I’m very cognizant of my spending and always having a good cash reserve.
But, he was also extremely generous when he did have money. His favorite way to spend money was on the people he loved and to make them happy.
So now, I also give freely. If it makes someone I love happy, and I can afford it, I’ll give them whatever I think might make them smile, if even for a day
I tag mostly for humor, things I think are funny, unique traits about a person that I’ve noticed are a pattern. Some examples
FYI for anyone not in the know, this is the Good Good Good Newspaper advertised by Hank Green
It only consists of “good” news and is very uplifting - generally every print edition features some kind of theme like “animals” or “medicine” or “art”
If you can afford to support, I think it’s a great way to encourage more uplifting news in our world
Depends on your charisma stat…
This some 18INT nerd shit
In my mind, charisma is easily the hardest one to improve. The rest you can grind out or get better with age but Charisma is tough
I think mine would be around average in most:
I would probably focus on Intelligence and Wisdom, but I think having a higher charisma would be also be very nice
My advice would be to treat investing in unique assets - like shares in one company or Cryptos - as gambling: only put in what you’re willing to lose. Anything you can’t afford to lose should be saved or put into index funds with lower risk and volatility.
You just cannot know what an asset will do in 6 months. You can have a really good guess, but at the end of the day it’s still a guess. And that guessing is even more difficult when it’s a non-productive asset like Bitcoin, because then you’re just gambling on vibes. There isn’t much logic to Bitcoin’s price besides “what if” and FOMO.
So yes, if you can afford to lose the money, you can leave it in. But if that money going to zero overnight would impact your quality of life or ability to absorb unexpected expenditures, then liquidate.
And on a more personal note, you’re probably better off having the drone you want than flipping a (digital) coin and hoping it’s heads
It’s comments like this that almost make me miss reddit gold

No, it is not that bad. It’s actually very nice.
It affords a lot of consistency, is relatively easy to understand (once you’re familiar with the convention), and theming allows you to modify all the colors and sizing in one file rather than modifying a lot of CSS
I think the worst that can be said about it is that it is unnecessary, but I cannot see a true downside to using it besides personal preference. It gets the job done efficiently and correctly and that’s what’s important at the end of the day
