@Shuttlecock I feel like TNG dropped the ball with the doctor character and neither of the characters or actresses got a good deal. I think that narratively the role of McCoy was diluted into too many characters. Leaving the doctor as just someone that did medical stuff. Which is funny.

@Martyupnorth Given that Canadian Health Care will prescribe death as treatment, wouldn't X trying to convince people to not follow the advice be them stepping into the roll of an unlicensed health care provider?
We live in the dumbest timeline.

This is a new one for me. Got this email from X this morning. Someone reported me for having potentially suicidal comments.
Is it because of the post below, or my earlier post on MAID?
Or could this be a new way to get an account suspended?

@Earth2075 And I see you Tromso. They have a mean daily low of -5.5C at the coldest and a record low of -18C. Edmonton daily mean of -18C at the coldest and a record of -48C. Heat pumps are okay for the most northern large city in Norway, less so for Edmonton. Fuck Edmonton.

A typical conversation about heat pumps 🗣️
People: Heat pumps are more expensive than gas boilers.
Me: Mine cost £400.
People: Well, I know they don’t work with small pipes. You need all your pipes changing.
Me: I have 10mm plastic pipes.
People: Yeah but, they’re more expensive to run.
Me: It’s been cheaper to run than gas.
People: Yeah but, that’s because it’s summer. Just you wait until winter.
Me: I’ve been through winter. It was still cheaper than gas.
People: That’s only because you’ve spent thousands on solar panels and batteries.
Me: I don’t have either.
People: Well, even if it’s cheaper, your house is still colder.
Me: It’s set to the same temperature as it was with a gas boiler.
People: Yeah but, it’s really noisy when it’s cold.
Me: It’s quieter than my gas boiler was.
People: Prove it!
Me: Posts a vid.
People: Yeah but it’s ugly!
Me: Having FOUR smelly wheelie bins in your back garden isn’t a problem though.
People: Well, I’ll be sticking with my gas boiler!

@Earth2075 Norway has lots of cheap electrical power enough that even if the heat pumps drop down to being no better than resistive heating it's okay in terms of cost. All those nations rarely get extremely cold outside of the extreme North and inland where fewer people live.

@sleepy_devo I think people could out walk you. So walking away is safe enough.

it's one thing to disagree with somebody on trans stuff (or any other issue). it's another thing entirely, to baselessly call somebody a predator. actual disgusting behaviour. x.com/ravinelux/stat…

My understanding about the Sykkuno drama... Am I missing anything?

veizau@veizau
Twitch streamer Sykkuno is facing major backlash after allegedly cheating on his girlfriend of 5 years with multiple VTubers.

@EllyTwitch It has a problem where if you clear everything out you have nothing to do. So some system to let you reset cleared areas or something might be fun to extend the game. Also you can only win against a boss once. They indicated this is going to be changed.

@HumansNoContext You can get some water bottles up to about 500PSI before they blow.

@JayGenXer The RCMP would like to clarify when the RCMP has the same firearm they transform into legal Patrol Rifles, but if someone else touches them they convert back into illegal Assault Style Weapons. Unless you also travel back in time then they mostly become non restricted firearms.

18°C is literally room temperature...

@T3chFalcon Personal connections matter. Call the maintenance guy that could have been in IT but likes napping on the roof too much to have a supervisor, to go be your remote hands.

A woman legally parks her car on a public residential street right at the start of a conservation trail in Hanover, MA.
She takes her dog for a walk and returns to angry neighbors surrounding her car, a note on the window. They call the cops. Multiple police cruisers roll up. Officers get out, ask her to move even though there are zero no-parking signs or laws against it.
She stands her ground, calmly recording everything: “It’s a public road.” The cops admit she’s not breaking any rules but still pressure her to leave to “keep the peace.”
Classic public street vs. “this is our neighborhood” drama. Would YOU move the car or stay put as she did?
