@grok @PierreJouet @tuseroni Sounds like a cucked nanny state rule that only retards follow, aka rhe English. Thanks

**It's a child safety rule.** Under UK building regs (Approved Document K for protection from falling, plus BS 8213-1), windows in homes, schools, care homes, rentals, and other buildings where kids or vulnerable people live/work must have restrictors that limit the opening to ~100 mm. This stops children from falling out while still allowing ventilation. It's not a total ban on every window in England—private homes without young kids often don't have them—but it's standard on many modern/upstairs windows and makes portable AC exhaust hoses a pain to vent. Safety first, even if it frustrates cooling in rare heatwaves.

Americans: “Hey Britain, why won’t you invest £200 in an AC unit?” Britain: “Because, unlike American houses, our houses aren’t made of tissue paper and spit, and fitting AC requires expensive renovations.”

@PierreJouet @tuseroni @grok why are the English not allowed to open their windows more than 100mm?

@tuseroni It does once you take British regulations on windows.

@PabloLim7 No idea. He's just melting down. Lost his source of income and now has to get a real job

@Colchis11 Ya, he probably deserves that CN, but is he blaming me or something? What’s his beef?

Massimo, with 4.1 million followers (including me, previously), has taken the time out of his busy day to block little ol' me. I humbly accept this recognition. For the record, a man blocking someone (except for cases of harassment and abuse) is effeminate, passive aggressive

@PabloLim7 He was demonitised for reposting videos without watermarks and crediting original uploaders

@Colchis11 No, I did not see that. What’s he even talking about??? He’s such a drama queen.

@PabloLim7 He's having a total meltdown. I've been enjoying it tve last few days

For the record, I love it when an account with over 4 million followers reposts me. Not whining at all.

@okaythenfuture Don't live In Africa. As a Westerner, go to South America. Much better

Within twenty years you will see masses of westerners and even Asians desperate to live in Nairobi. Nairobi is basically where 1980s Bangkok was, a huge UN hub city that was a delicious secret for UN workers and geriatric tourists. Eventually the word got out. I don’t like this, But it’s going to happen. It’s going to become one of the global superstar cities for remote wealth/money.

@PabloLim7 Did you see he posted about you?

@PabloLim7 He also blocked me. His meltdown continues.,lmao what a cuck.

@fietsprofessor @davewalker This is the most retarded shit I've ever seen. Due to mass migration to the West, putting anything in the street other than a car will mean it'll get stolen. Thanks, lefties!

@Kharn_300BO @TheBuddyCSM What if the apartment is new? Not everyone lives in old shit.

@Colchis11 @TheBuddyCSM Why haven't you had a dryer in the last 70 years that needed the same hole?

Living in Italy for two years was a great time, but it made me realize how much we take for granted as Americans. A few things: I paid 2700 €/month for a one-bedroom apartment. My washer and dryer were half of normal size. My “air conditioning” was two of those units that would be in CHUs in Iraq/Afghanistan. If I had the dryer and AC on at the same time, it would trip the circuit breaker. The dryer had no exhaust, so I had to empty a water tank into the sink after drying clothes. Buildings might be built to last in Europe, but houses in the United States are built to live in.

@Floren_Moss @rah_66_comanche Missed the other part, I see.

@Colchis11 @rah_66_comanche

For my fellow Americans, I decided to color in blue every part of the map under 87 degrees Fahrenheit

@IsenbergHenry @dvassallo Of course you're a dumb fuck communist

@dvassallo How do the employees have no risk? If the company fails, or they get fired/laid off, they lose their livelihood, their healthcare, etc.

Zuck was paying these people $350K-$1.5M/year for a W2 / WFH job with no risk and 25 paid vacation days. I don't think he owes them anything.

Let me explain how it works. Buy split AC for 500 euro. The cheapest one. Now get a man in your life to drill two holes in the wall. Mount the AC. Drill another hole in the wall, pull the hose through. Put compressor on ground. Secure it with bolts or screws if wood floor balcony. To save electrical wiring costs, plug it into socket. Done. Wow. And if you don't have a place to put the compressor, may I suggest not living in a 50sqm goybox for 3000 quid a month or whatever you pay in that diverse city.

@Andy22edwards @CourtneyMeehan3 @Paul1971EFC I’m getting quoted around £2000 a room in London. Fitting AC is not $200. You can barely buy a decent fan for that

The reason the UK is so stubborn about AC and ceiling fans is that they don't want to admit that their grid can absolutely not handle it. They can barely keep the lights on as is. That's it. That's the reason why.

@Andy22edwards @CourtneyMeehan3 @Paul1971EFC Lol? Split AC is about 500 euro. Just need one for the bedroom. I'm from Denmark BTW. Or buy a portable one, they're even cheaper, and put the vent through the window. Stop coping, it's embarrassing.

@CourtneyMeehan3 @Paul1971EFC Courtney you absolute gem, where can I get this AC unit, at that price. Having fitted hundreds over the years the cheapest option I can source is £1300 for a 4 way multi split (so 4 rooms not a whole house). The UK doesn’t have AC as standard because it isn’t financially viable

@BitPaine @JohannNadler It's not irrelevant. The load cells are measuring different loads due to uneven floor (tiles). Never place a scale across tiles.

@JohannNadler If you actually understood the tweet you would know that this is irrelevant. Imagine outing yourself like this.

so, fun fact about digital scales: most have fairly wide margins of error, like +/- 1-2%, which is 2-4 lbs on a 200 lbs person, BUT they mask this by storing your weight in memory for a certain period of time - usually about 15 minutes - if you step off and step right back on, the scale will recognize this and serve you the old weight to mask the measurement error. so it is likely this person spent just long enough in the shower for the memory to dump, and she got an honest re-read within the scale’s MoE.

@BitPaine Looks like uneven floor. And scale was moved. Keep it in the same spot and on a flat, non-tiled surface

@blockgraze Almost got caught once when I got an email from @rnicrosoft.com. Very hard to catch if you don't look closely.

almost just got phished luckily the spacing was weird in the email but this is a great spoof it came from the right google email and everything and a link to a perfect google sign in clone that would have gotten my password huge shoutout as always to brian armstrong

@eternalclassic_ White cats are usually deaf

that cat has to be deaf
