Appreciate the advice. I change the filter every month on the 21st and clean the coil each March. We have really drafty early 70s windows.

Might get my refrigerant checked.

It’s been baking here the last couple weeks. We finally got some cooler air and some rain yesterday. Something like 73°F last night as my wife and I waited outside the restaurant for our valet driver. I was wearing a long sleeve button down and wasn’t being murdered by heat. In early July. It was a miracle. We just kept asking each other what is this weather?It’s only supposed to be 85-90 degrees for the next several days. It’ll be nice for my air conditioning to not have to struggle to keep it cooler than 80°F indoors

September is only a couple months away. I can’t wait.

Ah yes. 9 PM, when the heat index is still 100°F.

Here’s yesterday’s peak heat index across Oklahoma. It being 99° isn’t the problem. It feeling 10 degrees hotter is.

It’s the AC for me, especially. When it’s 35-40 degrees and swampy outside, the weather is downright dangerous, especially for physical activity.

I think I’d get fired if I walked into the office with Debian installed on my work laptop.

Tempting…

The disappearance of defined benefit retirement plans is yet another way those on top are boning us, and it is NOT being talked about enough.

I’ma say it: Spinning disks are still a good choice for gaming. I wouldn’t run my OS off one, but I would and do install my games library on one.

Most of the time, the more you say you hate or are not x, the more you actually are x.

Or as Ron White put it…

I have imagined that ever since the Reddit emigration hype ended and things settled down a bit here that the vast majority of world and shit users are mostly lurkers and not terribly vocal, as is the case on a lot of other platforms.

One of my colleagues is a British man who just gained his US citizenship in 2021. He’s been here since 2007 on a marriage visa. And prior to that, he has described the immigration process as “arduous.”

And getting married is apparently the easy way to get in.

You’re asking them to think. That’s your first mistake.

When I fly, I fly from Oklahoma City. Getting through OKC is a dream. Hardly anyone flies out of here. Tix are usually cheaper flying from DFW. In my experience, you have to leave really early, maybe get a motel room, and it costs at least another $70 worth of gas to get there. It’s so much extra cost and inconvenience. It’s actually been cheaper overall for my wife and I to fly from OKC since we live here.

It’s like 30-45 minutes getting from your car to your boarding area. Getting through TSA is always pretty quick and easy. I can’t imagine the place is solvent.

I have a '97 Honda Prelude Type SH. For the 5th generation, only about 60,000 USDM Preludes were made. The Type SH was more expensive. There was also no automatic option for the Type SH, and since manuals were already dying in the 90s, I’d guess that they didn’t even sell more than a few thousand of them.

It’s a little rough. One of these days, I’m gonna dump a few thousand bucks into it and make it beautiful. But we’re working on our house and some other things first. Someone put a bunch of those bluish LEDs all over the thing. I deconverted it back to soft white halogens.

Did you know mathematicians and programmers often confuse Christmas with Halloween? That’s because DEC 25 is also OCT 31.

As an Okie and a Linux user, I feel this.

Can’t lose something I never had to start with

Trump also wearing an Adidas jacket is a nice touch.
