This makes no sense. This person made a claim and I asked what the source was. Shouldn’t they know where their own comment came from?

You pasted the domain not an actual blog post link. And you’re the one making these claims about him on a forum, does it really surprise you when someone asks for the source? Sorry you had to google something.

I cannot find any of this on his blog, why didn’t you just link to his blog?

Post the link to him saying that having sex with children is okay

This was a really interesting bio on him, never knew of him before but what a really unique and amazing person. Such a shame how he died, that just seems so unfair.

What is “really well”?

Ask it to search or list all of Bach’s children and you can see the wheels completely fall off. It was inventing people with actual fake birth and death dates and also gave me some of Handel’s children!

If you’re confident why not throw out 1M:1? I’ll take that bet with you. 100:1 sounds like you’re not that confident.

That is very good to know about the high heat model. Thank you.

It’s a Carrier 38MARB Performance Heat Pump, and it SAYS it’s rated at 100% efficiency down to 5 deg F but I can tell you from experience that it starts buckling below freezing. I have monitored it over a whole winter season and when we hit the 20s it starts running defrost cycles every 15-20 minutes. Each cycle takes about 5-10 minutes to defrost. It’s not able to keep the room warm.

Granted, this is a 500 sq ft room with a wide opening to the next room and a 25’ ceiling. I don’t think it was a great use-case for heating in general. For cooling, this thing is irreplaceable. It barely breaks a sweat and uses almost no energy, while keeping the room at any low temperature I set it to. I’ve yet to see it have any issues cooling, even when it’s 90F and humid outside.

It’s a Carrier 40MAHB

Yes we actually can’t even run our heat pump mini-split below 40, it runs too many defrost cycles and can’t heat the room. We installed a wood pellet stove to use for those temps.

I actually think they are currently all going south. This increase in ads is just one part of the fall I think.

The didn’t make 420m in profit, they lost 124m.

Personal data isn’t only used for ads. In this case a users watching history can be sold especially if it’s connected in some way to a demographic profile. There could be many more ways to monetize many other things the user does.

Really wonderful comment and very thought provoking. I think more people, myself included, should be thinking about what the transition away from capitalism looks like and not just banging on the drum that capitalism is all that is wrong. We need to be thinking about what steps 1 and 2 look like, not the last step which is way too difficult for anyone to properly see how to get there.

3x3x5 is like a storage unit for a family

Honestly curious, but do you have more info on this?
