Twitter is gone. It died the day Elon fired most of its staff.

Oh no! Not the 0000 passcode for my mouse or headphones!

Why is it that most manufactured pop from before you were born still sounds good, but most manufactured pop after your 40s sounds irritating as fuck? Like, I could dig some “Charleston” from the 1920s but Ashley Simpson is barf-o-rama.

Strange photo. Isn’t that swab supposed to go up the nose for a Covid test? Or do they do it differently in the UK?

If you buy an electric mower, you never have to change the oil again. Or the spark plug. Or buy gas. Or clean the carburetor.

Reminds me of ICANN fucking up all the domain names.

CocaCola.com CocaCola.new CocaCola.drink Cocacola.world CocaCola.bev

Etc.

Shameful. One thing that might work for the fediverse is federal institutions running their own Mastadon instances on .gov to move away from announcements on Twitter. You can’t fake .gov domains.

The worst is when people talk on their cell phones in the public restroom. No one wants to hear that on either end of the phone.

Not going to be possible with the rate Twitter is going out of business and Tesla cars are stagnating.

Rheem makes a 120v-based series of heat pump water heaters now. They were specifically designed for homes with gas water heaters and not enough 240v outlets. I won’t be surprised if/when other manufacturers follow.

If you have an attached garage, you might consider having it installed there to suck up all the summer heat.

If you’re worried about peak electricity usage, you can put your water heater on a timer so it’s only active during the hours you need it. Some water heaters come with this feature built in. Modern water heaters hold heat well, like a battery. So you won’t lose much heat from the water when the power is cut. Technology Connections did a good video on this subject.

Be sure to check for city, state, and federal rebates when replacing your water heater. They can cut costs significantly.

There’s really no reason for these two major convenience chains to merge. It’s just like the b.s. with Albertsons and Kroger.

Not in the US. I’d be fine with it but I don’t know how they’d enforce it. Most of the rowdy people would just get their friends to buy them drinks, or hop from bar to bar at the airport. I doubt they’d make people take a breathalyzer before serving them.

Here’s hoping they can find a cure for it (like gene therapy).

The real way to fix this is to have the government make competing generic medications. They should be used to supply the armed forces and offered to anyone as a competing med to drive prices down. It would also be useful for filling meds no one wants to manufacture anymore because they aren’t “profitable”.

They would probably have a difficult time hiring or getting malpractice insurance. Euthanasia is a specialty — like neurology, anesthesia, surgery, etc.

Hey Ladybird — get off Xitter and use something else like Mastadon.

It’s always strange to me how the body prefers 72 to 75 degrees F on the outside but 98 F on the inside. Anything approaching equalizing of interior with exterior temperature results in heat-related illness.

She did. If you read the article they had to give her IV fluids after failing to qualify because she was dehydrated.

I’m wondering if she just cut her hair, or shaved her head completely.

You should know the Electoral College is ridiculous and should be abolished.

Something tells me Africa isn’t the only continent with this problem.

Here I was hoping it was something like “recycled plastic bottles” or “ground up old tires”.
