@DrWaldmiller @MarioNawfal You are so right, man!

@MarioNawfal My ancestors moved to the United States in 1850, after the civil war across the German states and kingdoms. They made the right move!!!!!!

🇩🇪 A German man called Olaf Scholz a bastard on Twitter because his Fortnite update was going at 173KB/s The German state responded with a formal written criminal accusation under defamation law. The tweet had 503 views. The man had downloaded 102MB of a 37.9GB file. He had 37,800MB left to go. The police got there before the download did.

@PhotonCap Point on!!

Any comments on tipping culture? I went a Korean style raw fish restaurant in LA, and subtotal was iirc, ~800 USD. 20% of the subtotal was ~160 USD!! It's insane.

@LauraLoomer @mtgreenee @brianglenntv Florida is much better!

Looks like MTG @mtgreenee has been planning her escape from America for a while. In 2024, I reported how a source told me she bought a $5 million home in Costa Rica. Source tells me MTG just sold her home in Rome, Georgia and moved to Costa Rica with @brianglenntv. All that insider trading sure paid off. She just posted this photo of her new home in Costa Rica on Instagram. She abandoned her constituents and fled the country.

@slye I'm thinking about a heat pump for my pool in Colorado. Many told me that it won't work. I'm only looking to extend my season and have nice warm water in the summer. My pool is on the smaller side (30x10) and I'm pretty sure it will work. Not done with research yet.

Most HVAC contractors in America are trying to keep you in the 1990s. I had $15,000 cash to spend on a cold-climate heat pump. Nearly every contractor I contacted tried to talk me out of it or over-quote me an outrageous amount to deter me away. One guy spent 20 minutes explaining why variable-speed heat pumps are a scam. Another literally said he wouldn’t put one in his own house. Why? My guess: 1) They are ignorant of the latest technology 2) They don’t have the training to install/service the new systems 3) Their pockets get filled from big box old school HVAC manufacturers if they sell them Unfortunately, a new HVAC for most homeowners is very urgent so these contractors use this time crunch to overcharge or upsell inferior systems. Luckily, I bought a couple of $130 window AC units to hold me over for 2 weeks while I reached out to 15+ contractors. I received quotes ranging from $10,000 to over $24,000. Only 2 of the quotes included a modern cold-climate heat pump. After price matching and negotiations, I ultimately chose a Daikin Aurora Fit cold-climate inverter heat pump + 97% modulating gas furnace (true dual-fuel setup) Total cost after rebates = $13,000 This system usually goes for around $20,000. Here are the key takeaways I wish I had known before I started shopping: 1. Always demand a real Manual J load calculation. Don’t settle for a “rule of thumb” or register count. I had 3 different contractors give me 3 different sizes until one actually ran proper software. 2. True variable-speed inverter technology is worth it especially in a multi-level home. It runs longer at lower speeds, gives much better dehumidification, smoother temperatures, and is noticeably quieter. 3. Dual-fuel (heat pump + high-efficiency gas furnace) is often the smartest move in mixed climates (like my home in Louisville). The heat pump handles most of the year efficiently while the furnace only kicks in on the coldest days (if necessary) 4. Shop aggressively and negotiate hard. Buy yourself some time with some temporary/portable units. I got competing quotes and used them to drive the price down significantly. 5. Duct sealing, correct sizing/tonnage, and proper installation matter more than most people realize especially in older homes. 6. Have a detailed checklist to vet each contractor. An extremely helpful guide I had throughout the process was from @energysmartwv So why did I insist on cold climate heat pump? • Way better temperature balance upstairs (even without zoning) • Excellent dehumidification in humid summers • Significantly quieter operation • I’m expecting to save $60/month on electricity • Less reliance on gas and possibly eliminating the need altogether Modern cold-climate heat pumps are no longer experimental. They’re one of the smartest upgrades most homeowners can make right now. Do your homework to make sure you are getting the best system possible for your home. Don’t let old school contractors keep you in the past. Have you installed (or considered) a heat pump in a cold or mixed climate? Were the contractors helpful or did they try to talk you out of it?

@Markus_Krall Und tschüss!

Was haben wir denn hier? Die totale und bedingungslose Kapitulation. Hahaha!

@Markus_Krall Geht sich das ueberhaupt noch aus bei dem Lichtgeschwindigkeitszuzug?

Was passiert eigentlich mit der "Brandmauer" wenn die AfD die absolute Mehrheit hat?

@lugenwerk Slava Ukraini! Politiker bewaffnen und ab an die Front.

@babymohouseman Wo bitte bleibt das scheiss Jugendamt wenn man es braucht?!

Alles daran ist falsch, krank und widerwärtig.

@JulianAdrat Das Ergebnis einer komplett kranken, politkgesteuerten- gewollten Gesellschaft.

Das ist das abartigste, was ich seit langem gesehen habe: Ein Mann mit Bart und blonden Zöpfen, der während die Leihmutter in den Wehen liegt, „Geburt spielt“ - Und während er gleich mit dem Neugeborenen posen wird, wird es seine Mutter niemals sehen. Mehr Verachtung für alles, was gut, schön und wahr ist - geht das überhaupt?

@Georg_Pazderski Holly shit!!!

WIDERLICHE SCHARADE❗️ LGBTQI+-Influencer Joseph Hughes inszeniert sich im Krankenhaus als „Gebärender“, während er von einer Leihmutter sein 3. Kind abholt. Was für ein kranker Mensch. Anstatt ihm Kinder anzuvertrauen, sollte man ihn in die Psychiatrie stecken.

@denisyurchak Not many understand tye BS that's going on. Leave as soon as you can. It WILL get even worse.

My Austrian bank demanded to see all the invoices I sent as a freelancer in 2 years Their system got triggered because I transferred money from my own Revolut to pay taxes Now I’m under full-blown bank audit I’ve already spent 2 hours fetching documents for them, and they just want more and more. Yesterday they demanded to see the transactions from my Revolut account. The European obsession with privacy is a hoax. A private bank, not even an accountable government institution, for some reason has a right to demand my invoices to clients and transactions from another private bank. Tech founders in Europe have to waste time getting audited not only by tax authorities but also by random private actors like banks, while Russian and Middle Eastern oligarchs are welcome to spend their money in the EU as they please I guess Europe is really cooked

@AussenMinDE Toll, weiter 90 Milliarden die Toilette runter. Und Ihr wundert Euch noch, dass die Menschen keine Politfratzen mehr sehen koennen.

Erfreuliche Nachrichten aus Brüssel! Die viel zu lang anhaltende Blockade ist endlich aufgegeben. Die 90 Milliarden für die Ukraine und das 20. Sanktionspaket gegen Russland kommen jetzt. Ungarn ist zurück in der europäischen Familie.

@unusual_whales He is RIGHT!!

@HBrandstaetter Die Frage bleibt: warum scheisst sich der Grossteil der EU Mietgliedsstaaten darueber so in die Hose?
