Yup, that compressor and tubing and fins is describing a refrigeration cycle. In the summer you are using it like a traditional AC where it soaking heat in your mini split and sending it out to the heat exchanger outside built around your compressor to dump that heat in a hotter environment than inside your house (amazing I know!) due to the change in properties of the refrigerant when compressed (or expanded). This process is effectively reversed in the winter to take energy which exists in the cold outside air and pulls it in to your house by expanding it outside. Compressing or expanding the refrigerant effectively makes it colder or warmer (whatever is advantageous for the situation) to be able to extract or dump heat into it.

They probably mean mini splits which are usually attached to heat pumps which I think they implied by the savings in the winter

I think they cover that with step 1, elect a new speaker

Though this is still a pretty sharp change in how things are playing out at the moment.

I’m surprised someone is able to get a camera in to look at the president…I would’ve thought that would be more controlled

I mean it’s an octopus instead of the mermaid, idk I’d give them the benefit of the doubt

I mean, not as many as it could have been but I see your point

Kinda defeats the purpose of a phone…unless you want to only be contacted/updated at some interval you actively choose

This guy mayos

This feels like one of the early stages of spore where a random spaceship would float around above you and just fly away

Do the eyes in these suits move? Or is this a strategically taken picture?

This is probably a war crime

Damn I wonder if this was the foundation for all the anti covid vax stuff. Looks like typical cold war bs…this time with special guest, China

That sandwich looks excellent

We’ll see but I solved that with a crossover and a trailer. I can tow up to 3500 lbs which covers all of that and I’m more efficient literally any other time.

I did seriously consider a pickup but it just makes no sense day to day

At 600 watts running continuously wouldn’t that be 432 kWh a month?

Assuming you didn’t mean you were running your gaming computer as the server.

At 100 watts that comes out to 72 kWh, in CT where I live rates are waaaay higher then what I calculate your rate to be (around 2.5 cents per kWh)

For me a 100 watt server is about ~$22 a month to run.

Are you sure your paying 2.5 cents per kWh?

Well in case this isn’t a joke going over my head, you probably have more to live for than you realize :)

Wait so he’s a sovereign citizen but so involved in us politics that he decided to raid the capitol? I don’t understand how these guys can pick and choose which parts of being in a country they want

This game is great, huge red alert nostalgia when I first got it. I use it as a time killer when I have no internet (on flights mostly)

Why wait for climate change when you can just pick off chunks and bring them to a desert -__-

Just recently started playing rimworld and I’m super hooked. Trying to complete the game vanilla first then dive into modding
