  Yeah? Well fuck those survey takers. You want to blackmail me with my reputation? G-o f-u-c-k o-f-f.

  Ahem, Britain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do i fix this ugly hole in the wall?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Any chance of disconnecting the wire and pulling it out of the conduit? Then you could cut the conduit off inside the wall with a reciprocating saw or better, an oscillating tool, abandoning it.

  Presumably the FTC will have something to say about blatant anticompetitive actions suck at these. Then again, that’s why corporations buy themselves representatives, senators and judges.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla is the next biggest union target in the United States. Sorry, Elon Musk⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure what you’re taking issue with. UPS has twice as many union members as the big three combined. The Teamsters as a whole represent 3 times as many members as the UAW does in total. Perhaps the UAW has a larger war chest, I’m sure the NEA spends more lobbying, but no union in the country has a bigger hammer than the Teamsters. Longshoremen are probably close and rail workers would if they were allowed to strike. Also to say nothing similar exists in Amazon’s industry is to ignore the core of Teamsters membership, transportation and warehousing. I’m not trying to be combative, I hope the UAW gets to piss in Elon’s Cheerios on the daily.

  UPS’s union is the Teamsters, and they represent twice as many employees at UPS as UAW does at the big three. The Teamsters union is an incredibly powerful union because they represent transportation and don’t cross picket lines so they can really gum up the works if they so decide.

  Jesus H. tap-dancing Christ! My all time favorite movie. It’s got everything a mission from God needs, music, comedy, a jilted lover, probably the most epic chase scene ever filmed and Illinois Nazis.

  For sure look into any subsidies available to you and see if they make a dual fuel system feasible. In your situation if you buy a high efficiency furnace, it may never make economic sense to run the heat pump, but things could always change and it’s a simple enough task to find your break even (economic balance) point when fuel prices change. My current break even point is well beyond the temperature you would consider running heat, but I still run my heat pump in the shoulder seasons to exercise it.

  Maybe more akin to trolling, nobody has that many bad takes.

  Perhaps not every article off the techcrunch page is newsworthy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaked Email Shows Elon Musk Demanding "Sub 10 Micron Accuracy​” Cybertruck Parts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Elon gonna engineer the shit outta this thing. Nevermind coil steel itself varies by more than that before it goes into a die and stretches. It’s almost like he doesn’t have any background in automotive manufacturing. This statement makes me think Elon may not know what a micron even is. The fit and finish of Tesla’s current offerings seems to evidence it anyway.
