i read or heard somewhere that the average ac in the average house is good for about 30 degrees of cooling. if you've got good insulation and a newer unit, maybe 35-40 degrees? so if it's 115 outside...welp, you're gonna get to about 75-80 with the unit trying as hard as it can without freezing over.

yes yes yes. the fact they (and financial analysts frankly) place so much value on nflx still blows my mind but it's all based on growth kpis measured in subs. they and the isps know exactly how much netflix is watched. everyone will get killed. it's kind of a tarantino mexican standoff.

that was a specific thing my family member mentioned. how this nothing underdog movie about child trafficking is knocking off all the big boys in hollywood including indiana jones and the dail of whatever the fuck. my answer was something vague like "well, who knows what box office measures these days with early streaming releases, etc" even though i know exactly how that shit is calculated. so i guess this show is really showing the hollywood liberal elite?

ouch, that hits a little close to home.

do you think this was done intentionally by the district attorney to inflict pain on the city populace for...reasons? votes? district attorneys are fucking cops. their jobs are to destroy lives and punish people to the extent allowed by law. slam dunk felony prosecutions are not simply dispensed with just because. most prosecutors want as many convictions under their belt that they can get. so do you contend that this district attorney's office took a look at the merits of this case, tried to measure whether his resources are better served prosecuting criminals without established mental health commitment papers, and made an informed decision on what else to prosecute? or is the district attorney waiting on cases like this to come in, with bated breath, rubbing his hands together. just fucking stroking his boner over the chance to release another violent homeless person on the public?

i just tried to sit on the porch and make a phone call. my porch faces east, so i thought i'd be fine. it's a fucking sauna out there.

prosecute who for what, exactly? to what end?

lol, i don't know the weather guy from anyone, but he went looking for that wreck with that dashcam. i mean, people should not road rage, but that was a clear merge situation signal or not. i think this ended exactly how the weatherman wanted, even if he wasn't conscious of that at all.

fucking hell do we have the same supplier

i once had a sales training from a british guy, real stuffy fucker, and quite a bully - every session, he picked the weak link and just punished them verbally. for some reason, he liked me well enough not to make me subject of his targeting, but i always felt bad for the folks he chose. anyways, his stance, as "ownership" was that if there is a strike of any kind, it's from a failure of management or ownership. end of story. his stance was that fundamentally people want to work, they don't want to strike, but they want to make a living. if it comes to basic voluntarily not working to make a point, then the threshold of pain has already been passed, and probably a long time ago when you weren't paying close enough attention. he always said that capital exists because of labor. this was a died in the wool tory, but he actually seemed to have his eyes on the prize, generally, which is amicable compromise where everyone makes some money. "unnamed studio executive" is everything wrong with executive "leadership" these days.

i dunno that sounds pretty fucking metal

i imagine most of it did come down to cells in excel rather than "who is doing a good job" kind of maths. the network has been directionless for quite some time though. launching the ocho is about the funniest thing they've done in, what, 20 years? aside from that, they've done a poor job with content. they keep thinking they are in the content creation business when they are in the content broadcast and analysis business. whatever. nobody ever asks me anything.

i would've gone with he's on drugs.

yes this movie seems to be pizzagate fantasy porn. like, if pizzagate and liam neeson with his special suite of skills actually existed

lol bought and paid for i mean venmo??? I buy drugs with venmo from California with coded messages all the time. christmas party my ass

that's pretty much every golf cart in port a though right? i don't know how much longer i can keep saying how much i love this state but have to explain away its trumpiness. it used to be the people and the attitude that supposedly made this state so unique. maybe i was wrong about that all along fuck i dunno

richard garriott of local game designer and rich guy fame went on this thing or something like it into the marianna trench. he brought up something interesting as he has also been to space. he said he prefers space to water because in space is everything around you trying to get out into the vacuum. in water he said everything around you is trying to come in and crush you.

this is how you use your powers for good instead of evil yall

i mean, 1998 is no fucking slouch year either. 90s was fulls of bangers

i don't care what stats you have to fucking juke, nothing was longer or hotter than that 2011 summer. good sweet christ. the fucking state nearly burned down.

this person has tempered it a bit, but he tries from all kinds of angles, this movie being the most recent. now that i'm seeing behind the curtain, this movie looks like nutter shit, and makes me feel a bit like all the patriot afghanistan war movie stuff - just a bit dirty. it all feels scummy, like you are being had. it's a lot like the feeling i got when a cab driver in athens basically switched my 50 euro note with a 10 when i looked away. i knew something was wrong but we were at the airport and shit was happening so fast, and i must have given him a 10, so here's another 50 and keep the change. then you get all your shit out of the cab, ready to fly to crete, and you look in your wallet and you fucking know that guy just stole from you. you knew something was wrong at the time, but you couldn't place your finger on just what was wrong, because you're a decent person and it would never occur to you to just boldly steal somebody's money like that. that's the creepy vibe i'm getting from all this.

the thing that made me suspect was that the immigration one in particular got to me. that's what this movie is kind of cloaked in, like you alluded to earlier - it's child trafficking! surely you aren't FOR DRINKING ADRENOCHREME FROM BABIES YOU VAMPIRE. but the fact that i saw that commercial, and nodded like "hey, yeah, that actually made sense" made my "being sold some bullshit scam" spidey sense tingle.
