Plant manager sending out a site wide email saying that we're doing awesome, and we're desperately hiring so refer all your friends. One month after layoffs were announced, and those to be layed off still had a month to go.

True, but have you considered the fact that they are "free" and beat the commies? /s

Semiconductor mfg firesales.

Or if you want to spend the 20+k you can buy from the manufacturer.

Oh power usage.... that depends how much you need to cool down, and what setup you have. But usually they're 3 phase and lots of amps......

That can be done, just takes a more expensive Platten motor, and some more code in the control unit.

You can get "freezers" that will put part of their inside down to 250+c below their surroundings. (Helium cryocoolers)

If you're very careful you can remove heat with electromagnetic energy.

Think of heat like someone on a rope swing, and electromagnetic energy as a push.

If you time, and angle your pushes very carefully you can slow the person on the swing. But it's much easier to speed them up. Same with electromagnetic energy.

It could easily be done, but would only work if: you don't stop the cycle manually by opening the door, or you are ok with the microwave quickly spinning your food (or liquid filled cup) to the starting position as soon as you do open the door.

I've decided even if he doesn't, the system is so fucked up that "fixing" it will be worse for me anyways. I'm out as soon as mil kicks the bucket.

I agree with you fully here. Probably why I have a 500e for commute and a '95 F-250PSD for when I need a truck.

What is "too much effort" to others is definitely not the same as "too much effort" to you.

Are you above the median income for your age group? If so then your not too much effort could easily be way too much effort for more than half the people in your age group.

Affect, sure. In the same way that one can affect having rich parents who support you, thus making it easy to be rich yourself.

Being poor is fucking expensive, and the credit score system is a big part of that.
