heat pumps don’t actually create heat
🤓 ACKSHUALLY
Heat pumps create a fair bit of heat due to friction and electrical resistance in the compressor.

That still requires a turbine to turn the steam into electricity. If turbines are the shortage then nuclear doesn’t solve the shortage.

I’d rather be first than than anything after that. Because after one or maybe two, he’s going to be forcing it and it gets much more risky.

I was actually tier 3 support. I just also happened to be the sole support for one specific area which meant even low level tickets from there got automatically directed to me.
Earlier hyperbole aside, I honestly fuckin love my job now. If I didn’t rely on having an income, I would still be doing this for free. But working a desk job drove me nuts. I’m sure it’s great for a lot of people but I just can’t do it.

The trades can attract fairly diverse people because you don’t have to fit into an office. Generally you’re just given your work and you’re expected to do it. Welders especially can easily be specialized enough that they can’t really be micromanaged.

As a current tradesman who is regularly burned, electrocuted, and cut on the job while rolling around in filthy crawl spaces, dragging 100 lb of gear up a ladder onto scorching rooftops, or freezing inside walk in deep freezers… working in IT was way worse.
I would sooner stick my tongue in a 480V panel than have to go back to answering “printer don’t work” tickets.

If microbes are the concern then A UV system is going to be a whole lot cheaper in the long run. The UV bulbs in those are usually rated for 1 year of continuous use and if you only run it when there is a boil warning then it’ll last much longer than that. It looks like one of those will run you right about $100 which pays for itself pretty quick when compared to the cost of the more expensive filters.

Just an FYI, that graph is entirely unreadable in dark mode. I’m not sure why they chose to make a graph of all things have a transparent background.

From what I’ve heard, it’s less that the actual employer cares and more the the employer gets a discount on their insurance rates if they drug test employees.
- Comment on A conundrum 1 month ago:
My actual mortgage payment is probably just under $500. Taxes and insurance just put it at about $1000. I bought a nearly crack den quality fixer upper about 6 years ago in a moderately low COL area. In the truely low COL areas I imagine you might still be able to manage the same pricing today. It’s probably doable, just not anywhere most people want to live or with a house that doesn’t have a bunch of issues.

Same ish. I’m pretty sure I was the mythical 8 the night I decided to eat most of a dominos meat lovers pizza as my first meal after getting home from getting my gallbladder removed. I stayed a 7 on and off for most of a year until my body got used to not having a bile sac anymore. But now I am once again rocking an even split between 3 and 4.

Don’t destroying angel mushrooms basically stop your body from making proteins? That’s roughly the same net effect as RNA stopping working so it should give you a pretty good approximation.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
Pretty cool device.
That’s the exact reason I snagged it as soon as I saw it in the scrap pile with no idea what I would ever use it for. Aparently they work really well but I’ve never had the opporitunity to work on a machine with one installed.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
It do fit so I guess it do sit.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
Inside the ice machine it pulls in air from near the ice making sheet, runs it across the bulb, and spits the air back out above the water distribution bar above the ice making sheet. Similar devices from other manufacturers will pull the air from all the way down in the ice bin to circulate it inside the bin as well.
As far as it being an enclosed space, ice machines are fairly sealed but are frequently opened to access the ice in the bin. They’re less sealed than your average refrigerator.

I spent nearly 30 years of my life with unmedicated ADHD and ocasionally it works to my benefit.
Also still working on the 240V power thing. I just need to have disposable income first.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
It’s not pure oxygen. It’s basically just ionizing the oxygen in the air. From what I understand it works similarly to an ozone generator but is slightly different.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
Ice machine do use a lot of plastic but it is usually designed to be more robust due to the cleaners used so it may be different from the stuff used in a fridge.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
Nope. They run all the time. They literally just get wired direct to the hot side of the main contactor in the machine. If the machine has power the luminice unit is running.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
That’s what I thought they were at first too but aparently there is a difference. A cold oxygen plasma generator does produce ozone but aparently it also does other stuff. I’m not sure on the exact science but it isn’t just an ozone generator.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
I want to. I have a spare minifridge so I may run some trials with that. Unfortunately it’ll need to wait a bit because the Luminice unit needs a new bulb and I don’t have that kind of money on hand at the moment.
- Comment on Can I put a cold oxygen plasma generator in my fridge? 2 months ago:
That’s what I’m kind of wondering. Maybe I should try it out with my minifridge first.
