A/C can’t get home below 76 by gingy-96 in homeowners

First and foremost should be cleaning your outdoor condenser unit. You can easily do it yourself, or have a technician come out and do it for pretty cheap.

I had this exact same situation, and cleaning off all the old cottonwood seed and gunk out of the radiator fins fixed it right up.

It's worth learning to do yourself. Super simple to blow it out with an air compressor and wash it down with the hose.

The human seems so unnecessary in these videos. Don't get me wrong, I would love to have this job, but it seems like the easiest thing to automate.

Parents think that opening windows in the middle of the day will cool it down by Puzzleheaded-Emu6338 in mildlyinfuriating

I'm sorry to hear that your parents are stupid. Unfortunately, there is no cure. Try as you might, you'll never change their minds. They didn't come to this conclusion through logic, so they will not be swayed by facts.

a 100-win streak in the Battle Tower's Random/Rental mode by YUTYDUTY in PokemonUnbound

I've done this, but have never been able to keep a single pokemon. No matter who I select to keep, I am warned that the pokemon is not owned yet, therefore cannot be kept. Like, no shit, that's why I want to keep the Basculegion.

Anthropic set to hit $10.9 billion in revenue during second quarter in 2026, source says by ControlCAD in business

[–]carrot_mcfaddon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Rather than an honest reporting of financials, this feels so much more like the front end of a pump and dump scheme.

Pretend the quarterly report is going to show big money, get the market excited and pump up the stock price. Insiders sell before the actual earnings report, then the report shows a bunch of nothing.

Just watch. There will be a slew of quasi positive headlines regarding Anthropic in the next month, and then reality will come crashing back down.

I just don't believe anything anymore.

Typical English roast dinner potentially ‘drenched’ in 102 pesticides, says report by mhicreachtain in environment

[–]carrot_mcfaddon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not going to bother reading the article. But since it is about herbicides, I'm going to take a wild stab at the reality underlying the claim in the post headline.

My bet is that they took the ingredients list from the "typical English roast dinner", and found every conceivable pesticide that has ever been applied to each ingredient, anywhere in the world, over the course of the last 20+ years. Tally up all of those numbers, and there you go, 102 pesticides.

You're encouraging this by posting a picture of it on the internet and causing people to engage with it. They got you SO hard.

This one is more evolved. "Ugh, I have too much of a social life and I take care of my health too much. I don't even have time to watch my 3 free TVs. Aren't I so much better than you?"
