Interior air quality is a problem long solved by ventilation fans. You should run them regardless of the type of cooking appliance used. Now that many homes and apartments do not have ventilation that exhausts to the outside is a different problem.

THEN THERE IS NO PLEASING YOU.

Srsly, maybe you don't really want so snack on your nutt. Post nutt clarity is wisdom, pay mind to it.

Read another way: poor people no longer allowed to use gas, that's only for the wealthy.

Seriously, since when does anything good start with poor people? High speed internet--nope. Better cellular coverage--hell no.

How about they "decarbonize" Beverly Hills first? I'm sure they'd be thrilled to give up their poolside fire pits and Viking ranges in the name of cleaner air. I'm sure they'd not mind it if their whole-house generators were now useless.

I believe that we need to reduce the use of fossil fuels, but this approach feels very imbalanced and makes me question the intent. At least you can still cook or have hot water during a power outage. If nothing else, why fucking remove the infrastructure?! If this is such a great thing, leave the gas lines in place and let the utilities subsidize the switch to all-electric. Also, with all energy coming from a single source, I worry that this is an attempt to remove alternatives and spike costs to the consumer by green washing the whole thing.

I'd love to see how this really helps the air quality. Until we can effectively displace and shut down natural gas power generation, it will still be a factor.

Also, the 3.5mm audio port on your phone has another reason to exist.

Your music is digital until something converts into an analog waveform that your headphones or speakers can use. That thing is the digital to analog converter aka a DAC.

The quality of the DAC directly effects the quality of the audio. The cheap dongle you buy on amazon for a few bucks is the cheapest pos that exists. Most phones with a 3.5 output will produce better sound because the manufacturer can elect to put a better DAC in the phone hardware. In fact, a high quality DAC built into the phone would be a nice selling point for audiophiles or a nice upgrade for those who might otherwise choose to buy an external dac--now they dont have to.

You dont have to like my attitude, but when your car is a computer with wheels, I'm not wrong about the need for technical abilities.

However, most people have zero clue how a 10 year old gas car works. I stand behind my assertion that people need to know how their shit works or learn to live with the fact that they've abdicated the responsibility to take care of themselves and will pay a grown up to do it for them.

Take a group of people who grew up without the need for any technical skills, put them in a car that is wildly complex and this is what you get.

I'm no fan of overcomplicated stuff, but if you own something like this, it is your problem to educate yourself on how it works and how to deal with issues and failures or get used to being bent over any time you have to pay an adult to rescue you.

Also, I don't own a Tesla, but I looked it up and there should be multiple warnings on the display about a failing 12v battery as well as messages via the app. I'm going to guess that they were ignored in this case.

Of course, the owner "still loves the car!" to further drive home the fact that he's a moron.

This stinks of their enterprise practices. They are masters of creating extremely confusing plans for pricing that involve bundling, discounts for various combinations, etc. In the end, you get a fat ass bill at the end of every month. When you ask them to explain it, they will say that this component was generated by one team, another by a different...

You will never get a straight answer and if you do, it will take weeks. By then you have another bill and you get to start all over.

I am so over Microsoft and their bullshit. I don't use any of their shit at home and I actively remove anything I can of theirs at work. Punting Defender out of our environment was my best day ever.

I am 99% certain that our house is the only one in the neighborhood that doesn't use chemlawn. Springtime is dandelion season and its great. Now the clover is in full effect. I love that the bees and bunnies are going to chow town. Gonna hit the back yard next spring with the microclover. I'd love to get the point of a monthly mow. I hate grass and mowers. If I could let it go full meadow I totally would. Mainly because I know it pisses off all the old buzzards who have nothing to do beyond sweep their driveway 3 times a day.

YEAH THAT SOUNDS FUCKING HORRIBLE, TORTURE REALLY.

I however am the rare american who is enjoying my third uninterrupted week of total freedom. This is because I was fired from my job three weeks ago. Corporate restructuring my ass.

The time is nice and I did get some severance, but there is zero enjoyment knowing that if I don't land a job soon, I will be hard fucked. Sorry kids, we are canceling music lessons, and any other recreations until your loser unemployed parent can get work again. Wheee!

Hello, this François on fantsy pants lane. Yes the one that doesn't have a road, that's it.

Anyway, I need 400 sq feet of ceramic tile delivered as I'm having some work done to my flat. I also need about 20 gallons of mastic and five bags of sanded grout. No, you can't drive a delivery van here, there is a shared lot two blocks away you can park at and then then the delivery people will have to bring everything from there. You won't do it? Yes I know tile is heavy. 2400 lbs? Well, dont you have a smaller delivery bike or something? Well, can't you get one? I don't understand why you're being so uncooperative!
