Oh, Agreed 100% when it's broken beyond repair. But replacement of a working (yet now inefficient old) AC doesn't save money necessarily. Not when new units are so expensive.
We are in the south, not Texas, and really need to replace our almost 25 yr old AC. We've been repairing and trying to get another season out of it for the last 3 years.
So it'd take 25 years to have enough savings on the power bill (saving $100 a month for 6 months of summer)
Assuming the power company never raised rates in the coming years.
Imagining the body snatcher coming back to the eggy pod and waking us up... "screeeech this sucks, take your life back, too much stresssssss" as they shove us out and climb into the eggy pod.
If you like gooning to written smut then you can find a hella amount of mafia porn.
Because of your comment I actually read the article.
Would recommend.
Virgina worked at MAL at age 17 before Maxwell scouted her to "work" for Jeff. Maybe that's what's he's talking about. Jeff stole a perfectly good underage worker handing out towels.
I definitely have friends like this. I have some family like this. We are good no matter how much time between communications.
I also have some family that put zero effort in and maybe they'd show up if I needed them. But given that after one text, they haven't checked in at all after my Dad died unexpectedly 7 months ago...
They still have each other and both parents. I'm not going to be the one comforting them.
So I'm not actually sure they'd show up even if I asked.
Luckily, I have people who have checked in on me without me having to reach out first.
As someone who has link tracking in our business, yes, some of the stuff after the ? isn't nefarious tracking, like the utm mentioned above.
All the "list-unsubscribe" options you may have noticed starting about a year ago, are actually required to be there for any company that sends out any kind of email newsletter over a certain threshold. (Lists around 5k or more)
If the unsubscribe links aren't there, with the required url-encoded parameters (along with some other requirements with DNS) the email will not be delivered to any of the majors (google, yahoo/aol, hotmail, big ISPs) and we get blocked.
The unsubscribe parameters are being tracked, yes, but we have to have them so we can unsubscribe you "in one click" We are not allowed to require you to sign in to unsubscribe you. (Not that we ever did that, but now there must be a one-click option.)
(We used to just be two clicks to unsubscribe off an encoded link. Click -> this you? If yes, click -> you are now unsubscribed. Or sign-in and manage subscriptions without an encoded link.)
Again, the point is that not all url encoded tracking is nefarious. Some of it is now required to try and minimize spam and nefarious emails.

From scratch? I'm looking into some miso paste, so I can make my own miso soup
The punchline is porn.
I can taste some of them, especially red and blue artificial food dyes. I'd love to see them replaced because I look like a weirdo eating around the m&ms I don't like.
Was looking for this.
