I mean, depends on the frozen pizza. 99% of them are worse, but there's one brand I get at wally world for like $7 a pizza that is better than 99% of the pizza I can order (and we have some pretty solid pizza joints around here).

Had to quit getting them though because they're like 6000 kcal.

Pretty sure you could still get away with this - if the drop is less than 30" no railing is required.

Fractional scaling in Windows is still eh, largely because they can't do a whole lot about icons not designed for that scale. For example in Rhino a bunch of the icons get weird pixel doubling when running 150% because they were designed for 100% and use a lot of 1 pixel wide elements.

It's honestly the main reason I keep hanging on to my now 10 and 15 year old displays. I'm hoping for a 6k 32" display so I can run true 200%. Dell makes one but they put a stupid webcam forehead on it.

I just moved ~30 minutes away and saved $100/mo as well. Insane difference.

You also need to be careful when deleting your account - when you do, they'll send you a "there was an issue with your request" email that tries to get you to register again by prompting you to "log in" to fix it. The log in is creating a password for a new account.

I mean you could kinda do that yourself with UV ink and an appropriate flashlight. Put some in the bowl and some in the tank, maybe even different colors to see which portion contributes more.

I hate soft close lids because they close too slow. The flush is over before it's half down, which defeats the whole point of a lid. Sure, I could wait an extra 30 seconds, but at that point why not just do the soft close with my own hand?

This post was jest in time.

So although charging an EV is by no means fossil-fuel-free, it’s considerably less fossil-fuel than an ICE car.

That was my point. Even in the worst case it's comparable to 60mpg.... No ICE gets 60mpg. And in a decade it'll be even better.

Last time I looked (a few years ago), a 100% coal powered EV had similar emissions to a 60mpg car.

I doubt anywhere will still be coal powered in a decade, with how fast plants are closing. But that EV will still be there on its 3rd owner.

I use a CC, so I really don't give a shit if someone steals my number.

Last time my card got skimmed it was $0 and <30 seconds to fix, including hold time. They don't fuck around when you're reporting stolen info, because legally it's their money, not yours.

How the hell do y'all remember first grade? I only have the spottiest of memories prior to high school. Heck even that is spotty, just more spots.
