@WarnerCrocker Probably too late, but I'd replace them with modern flash water heaters. Less bulk, less likely to leak over time, and energy/cost savings from not keeping gallons of water hot all the time.
I had one installed years ago at my house in SC, and loved it. Nobody gets a cold shower, no matter how busy the bathroom gets. Also plenty of hot water, even if the dishwasher or a load of laundry on hot is going. 🙂
@WarnerCrocker We've had an amazingly dry, and rather warm Fall here in NEPA. I need to get the last of the leaves cleaned up from my yard this week, before the snow comes.
@parismarx Remember when he was the asshole in charge of Microsoft, and creating a monopoly? Yeah: I still haven’t forgotten that, and nothing he does will change that perception.
Hi. Fan of creativity here. Randy Rainbow does a good job informing, and parodying America. I'm impressed with his ability to rework movie classics into informative narratives. And his sense of humor. 😀
OK, but to what end? Why even make that study? And what benefit to Google was derived from the consequent (I assume) degradation of their search results? What was the benefit, and who profited most from it?
Curious: how so, exactly? What's surprising you about their response?
I'm from the Midwest, and spent a couple years in Minnesota (St. Joseph, 3rd grade, 1969; St. Paul, 1980). So I guess I've always been aware of it, and appreciate its natural beauty and liberal disposition.
Excellent points. I've lived here in NEPA, in a very red county for over 8 years. Before that I lived 15 years in red South Carolina. I always vote. Yes, it often feels pointless, and I know my vote gets overwhelmed. But I'll continue to exercise my rights and my responsibility until I'm incapacitated. It's the least I can do as a Citizen to support & defend the US Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
@BrianJopek@rdgit Only a very few elected Democrats are calling for Biden to step aside, and almost none of the actual voting Democrats (me included). The hand-wringing is coming from corporate/billionaire owned media (which is yes, almost all of the media in America), and some fence-sitting Independents who didn't vote in the primaries (or who registered "protest votes").
I'm a registered Democrat. I voted for Biden/Harris 2020, in the recent primaries, and I'll do so again this November.
@thomasfuchs I guess my question is: "Who still has 3.5" floppy drives?" Collectors/fans of vintage hardware? Certainly. Me? Yes: I still have a USB 1 3.5" floppy drive. 🤣
