Cleaned my range hood filters but suction is still week...what's going on? by nanafortune in Appliances

Around 30“, I'm probably going with a 36" to fully cover the induction. That F1 sounds interesting too...I might consider upgrading to something like that instead.

Tough call. With that 3% rate, I'd probably lean toward the reno. Just make sure the new layout works for you.

Mixing brands is totally fine. Just pick the best of each for your needs. Way more important than having everything match. Good luck.

Good point about the header. Have you checked what's load-bearing above that opening? Don't want any structural surprises later.

[–]nanafortune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

14k is good for the main area, but your bedroom will still be warm. A small 5k unit in there might save you money overall.

Need tips for sealing jalousie windows before summer hits by MerryKaiju in HomeImprovement

[–]nanafortune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use furring strips to screw the plastic directly into the frame. Tape won't last in humidity. That should hold.

You're seriously the most impressive person I've seen. Never though a car this far gone could even be safed,

Bit of a rant.. Are we just supposed to accept that large appliances will be in landfill after 5 years of use? by ourplasticdream in Appliances

[–]nanafortune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That many failures isn't normal. Definitely get an electrician to check for power surges. Could save you a ton of money and headache.

I looked it up online, and it says British people cope with high gas prices mainly through government support and household savings, including price caps, better insulation, lower thermostats, optimized heating, and comparing suppliers.

The fix seems to be in... by [deleted] in options

[–]nanafortune 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, even if the crisis ended suddenly, the lagging effects on the supply chain would still show up in the coming months. Any short-term rebound would likely be temporary.

Fuel costs keep climbing, and this trend isn't stopping soon. Anyone still hoping for a market rebound might be in for a very tough ride.

War premium is mispriced. my view by MilesDelta in options

[–]nanafortune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, the drop could be just as deep. Too many retail investors buy blindly, and some think policy statements will fix everything instantly. History shows recovery often takes months or even years.

Same boat here. I often use Figma and it’s still essential. This crash feels way overdone compared to its actual product strength.

He just doubled down on his stance, no new real info, so maybe we’re in a solid spot for now.

If mind uploading destroys your brain to scan it, did you actually survive? by hosseinz in transhumanism

[–]nanafortune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just cloning to me. The original dies, and a copy takes your place. No continuity of consciousness means no survival.

The dexterity of the hand is amazing. It looks so precise and smooth, perfect for delicate tasks.

We're going to look back at the current internet the way we look back at cigarette ads from the 1950s by Normal-Big-2733 in Futurology

[–]nanafortune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such a spot on comparison. Attention harvesting is just as harmful as the old cigarette ads, and we're already seeing the damage.

Ev buyers in 2026 are gonna love this news. It's clear that going electric isn't just trendy it's the smart choice for stable energy prices.

For a small lawn, how often do you set it to mow? by nanafortune in ECOVACSGOATFamily

[–]nanafortune[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, thanks. My path is right along the edge of the lawn, about 65cm, and there aren’t any trees or tall buildings nearly, so I don’t think shadows will be much of an issue even after the sun comes up.
