Except windows doesn’t ever actually shut down after the reboot if you tell it to “update and shut down” lmao

I’m convinced Gboard does this, it’ll always suggest grammatically incorrect words, or the wrong tense, or a word that just doesn’t make sense there in the sentence. My favorite part is when I type 75% of a word, see the CORRECT completion as the center suggestion, then tap it and it’s picked some random variation of that word (made plural, made past tense, etc.)
And it ALMOST ALWAYS autocorrects “live” to “love”, and “in” to “on”
I couldn’t type on a smartphone without autocorrect though, so it’s a lose lose situation getting rid of it or keeping it!
Ironfacebusterto Technology•Adblockers stop publishers serving ads to (or even seeing) 1bn web users - Press GazetteEnglish26·9 days agoI personally am not bothered at ALL by the banner video ads overlayed on top of another banner ad that opens a new tab when you try to close the banner video then another one opens covering the original banner then the page scrolls all the way back to the top and shows you an email list sign up, why would I be?
I’m glad I’m not the only one! I saw a gif of Nicholas Cage and thought it was light speed for comedic effect!
My friends complain about the seatbelt alarm going off because they don’t wear their seatbelt. Instead of wearing their seatbelt they defeated the safety mechanism, problem solved!
This is exactly the kind of slope the stair master is DESIGNED to prepare you for!
The preview for this gif is going at 3/4 light speed for me
I love that there are Hanna Barbera characters snuck in there

Realistically they probably didn’t use the traeger until the 4th, so they were about a year behind on “updates”
Unless you’re my dad, then he finds any excuses he can to use his traeger. The thing can smoke a damn good brisket, software updates be damned!
Ironfacebusterto Crazy Fucking Videos•[Video] Released footage of Israeli bombardement on Iran during their war.English5·23 days agoLast time someone said that to me it was after I chewed them out for letting my truck go out with a twisted brake line that subsequently burst, lost all pressure, and led to me getting stranded on top of a driveway in the snowy mountains.
Now, I’m not saying YOU are intending to be a smartass, but it seems more often than not people that say that in response to legitimate concerns and criticism over issues does seem to be one.
That’s awesome, I’d love to get a system like that going for my generator. Good luck with that, if you end up doing it!
What’s the insulation situation in your house? I didn’t build mine and the previous owner who did used Styrofoam and cinder blocks so it’s a losing battle keeping it climate controlled 95% of the time (alongside no central ducts at all minus the chimney)
It can be pretty great, but you really do need to treat it differently than you would on the grid!
For example: at night, making sure you don’t leave lights on, not running heavy loads like the microwave for very long, etc.
The good news is that as the old expensive equipment gets phased out, it gets easier and cheaper to DIY your off grid (or emergency backup) system!
For real, I have wood stoves (and propane heaters a supplemental) for winter heat so luckily a little less load on my system! This past winter was so cold here I had to get a subzero sleeping bag and put a living heater (my dog) inside of it because even the wood stoves couldn’t keep up
I have mini splits but because of the sun situation I couldn’t run them on heat without burning through my power/spending hundreds of dollars on gas for the generator!
As someone who’s house is entirely powered by solar, I love the long days! I also do a lot of outside work so the extra hours of daylight really help me there too
During winter it was so overcast and cloudy that I had to run a generator almost the entirety of the season
