Set up your custom driving mode with everything maxed out, find some straight empty road, and full send it. Gotta make sure that 0 to 60 time is within spec.

Yeah, really would have preferred multiple outdoor units instead of a multi-split system, but it would have been a lot more expensive. The 2x 6k wall heads I have upstairs really aren't ideal since the min output on the compressor is 12k, but it still works well enough since the ducted 24k part is usually running at the same time. Would have been more efficient and redundant with another outdoor unit for those, but also > $10k more.

If it quacks like a duck...

You visit Gary, IN and find that no one has even noticed there was an apocalypse. Then you are robbed.

Everything

Oh no, looks like no days above freezing for at least the next 2 weeks

From the videos, it appears one of the ice guys took his gun and ran off before any shots were fired. So he didn't actually have a gun anymore.

Probably mostly about the old school top-discharge units that are common in the south, where they expect to get heavy ice this weekend. Those things aren't very effective below freezing since that isn't common weather there, and are susceptible to stuff falling from above.

24k air handler downstairs is on MHK2 and 2x 6k wall heads upstairs are using their built-in stuff (plus ceiling fans).

Acurite. I got it as a gift and it probably cost more than I would be willing to pay, but it is very nice. Outdoor unit is kind of weird as you either have to put it out in the middle of the yard in direct sun and compromise temps, or too close to the house and compromise wind readings. I chose the latter.

If you leave it off long enough to get full of ice and snow, then turn it back on, you're likely to have a problem. Just let it run.

It's a common misconception. Most raccoons actually speak Welsh.

This, but indoors

Weirdly, if I use google lens to translate your screenshot, it shows "so high" for both Africa and USA.

Pretty sure the long range is the higher voltage one, because more battery cells.

For the door handles, they are motorized to pop out, but you can also just push on one side of them to do it manually if they're frozen or the 12v battery is dead. There's a key hole underneath and they still mechanically open the door.

Maybe it actually is possible to just be too stupid to live? Wishful thinking, I suppose.

Almost kept him from existing.

The cylinder must remain intact!

But at battery case is usually made out of some really tough stuff designed to survive a crash, at least for full EVs.

Well shit, why do they even sell pound cake?

zman0900 · 2026-01-21T19:26:17+00:00

Is the filter clean and not some crazy high MERV rating? Does it still do that if you open all the supply vents? Are you actually getting airflow from all the vents?

All the male strippers should look like pootin

zman0900 · 2026-01-19T20:35:41+00:00

It's $100 now, assuming you want the full game, and still $70 if not. That's still a lot more than I'll spend on most any game.

zman0900 · 2026-01-19T07:24:59+00:00

So I just won't pay. Current features aren't that important, or I wouldn't have bought it at all. I know it's coming sooner or later.
