Are Temu the ones who say "pretend you're a billionaire" or something but their ads always have the most bizarre, undesirable-looking, nasty, cheap, plastic things in them?

We're talking about Southern US pronunciation so much that I read your comment from "do I" onwards as if it was being spoken like a Southern Belle.

I say "all of y'all" and make a point to really emphasize the "'".

Same thing happened here in the UK years ago. "Want to make out democracy better?" "Nah, mate."

Good guy The Guardian. For my fellow Brits, here is your regular reminder that there are only two major independent news outlets in the UK: The Guardian and the BBC.

Didn't you hear? All Arabs in Lebanon are Hezbollah.

Or they're sheltering Hezbollah, which is as bad as being Hezbollah.

Or they know someone who is sheltering Hezbollah, which is as bad as sheltering Hezbollah.

Or they live near someone who knows someone who is sheltering Hezbollah, which is as bad as knowing someone who is sheltering Hezbollah.

And so on.

Sounds good. Tell you what, why don't you write a complete list of every problem that needs sorting, objectively ranked in order of importance, and we can make sure no-one addresses problem #2 until problem #1 is fixed.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

 

These water fountains flow constantly with fresh drinking water for anyone to use and they are everywhere in Rome. Covering the spout with your finger forces the water out a hole on top, creating a arch of water at perfect 𝓼𝓵𝓾𝓻𝓹𝓲𝓷𝓰 height. The Romans were/are with us.

 

Does anyone know a way of calculating the amount of heating I need to maintain an average temperature in terms of kWh of heating per 24 hours? Ideally one taking into account weather conditions.

I have a pretty big Home Assistant setup which includes switches for individually controlling all the (electric) heaters in my home. I'm also using an electricity supplier that changes the amount they charge every 30 minutes to reflect supply and demand. Given these rates are published at least 24 hours in advance I can currently choose a number of hours to run the heaters per day and have an automation automatically select the cheapest periods. I'm paying less per kWh for heating than I would if I was using a gas boiler. Plus, it's all from renewables, so working out that number of hours is the next step.
