It’s because it isn’t cheaper than running gas in large parts of the county. EFFICIENT doesn’t mean CHEAPER. I did the math this past year with excel and chat GPT. Go to the side of your heat pump, look at the model number, go to the manufa

>The author seems to be a bit older * The author drives an older car at home I mean, given the prices of cars nowadays, I highly suspect that any car buyer is going to be on the older side.

You want to know what's even crazier, you can literally but it over the counter. I was at kroger the other day and I saw it next to the vitamins and I did a double take.

I know this isn't your family member, but if they were a 500-pound alcoholic smoking two packs of cigarettes a day, I suspect they probably felt like crap before the ozempic.

Yes, but I use QuickScan on iOS (which is free, with no ads) instead of adobe acan, and a variety of other apps, including apples own. It’s a bit cumbersome to open the notes app or files app and make a new scan. And adobes app uploads ever

That is is T-Mobile “Ultra Capacity”, which is more like.y the midband spectrum they got from sprint. You basically need line of sight for mmWave. Think of it like light. If you can’t see an access point, then you probably aren’t using mmWa

You're not wrong, and honestly you raise a lot of good points. But remember I told yall to pretend to be broke for a second. If you live in apartment complex of 400 ppl, out in the semi-suburbs of a major city, there aren't nearl

>Used cars buyers aren't typically considering what the cost of a replacement engine is when they're buying. That's because engines, properly lubricated, and run at a set RPM (i.e highway miles), have a lifespan that is fa

I mean...He's not wrong. I'm going to get crucified for saying this, but I suspect hybrids will likely be the future, with EV use picking up slowly (if at all) over the next 20-30 years. Not saying EVs are like 3D TVs, but as it s

The App Store reviews are pretty damning. Pay 1 dollar to unlock dark mode, only to have an update roll it back, and charge 12 dollars monthly. That’s a pretty high monthly cost for a 2fa app. Why would anyone use this over raivo or opt Aut

> The vendor lock-in is by definition there if there are any special Apple features. This is ridiculous. Then no manufacturer, weather it be cars, or clothing, or industrial equipment would offer anything different than their competitors

But that is what happens, when you use the icloud backup. You log in, you you create a new passcode, and the app automatically looks in your icloud folder for a backup, then restores it automatically. There is no account creation involved i

On August 21st, 2017, the USS John S. McCain collided with the Alnic MC, a Liberian oil tanker, off the coast of Singapore. The report provides a detailed overview of the actions that led to the collision: when crew members tried to split t

I actually noticed this, but I consider this a feature, not a bug. In raivo, you are able to export an encrypted zip file, which I did and saved to a flash drive and put it next to my old iphone 6 in a drawer under my bed. It's reassur

Coincidentally, I switched over to raivo just several weeks ago. There is a way to extract all of your 2fa keys using a deprecated chrome extension, which is what I did. It's quite easy, it spits out everything in a PDF web page with Q

This is an excellent explanation and it captures why the regulation around nuclear energy is so strict.

This is like the 4 or 5th time last pass has been hacked, or had a breach. They might as well just shut down at this point, I can't imagine anyone but the uninformed would want to use them at this point.
