I think what you’re failing to understand is that newer HVAC units are designed to be run in a specific way. if you disregard that, and run it like a unit from the 1980s you will halve the life of the unit.

yes, most of the “brains” are on the unit itself but without proper “eyes” the brains are useless.

I’m not even an HVAC tech but I’ve worked on them enough to know it’s a dumb idea to just replace your thermostat with “a raspberry pi and a bunch of 24v relays”. there’s just too much risk of things to go terribly wrong and multiple people literally die.

you know, they should set aside their differences and look at what they can both agree on.

how sexy they can be.

edit: as triggering as it can be, you know the joke is spot on.

can’t wait for the next challenge, “give us your daddy or mommys DOD password or stab your grandma in the armpits”

my high efficiency HVAC unit would like a word with you.

what you’re saying is basically you can replace anything with a RPI. yes, in theory, you are correct. but, unfortunately for you, there are nuances that you didn’t take into account. such as, startup/shutdown procedures, cool down cycles, heat pumps, dual compression ac units, etc.

oh yeah, mega rustled.

have you tried walking away and not caring as much?

the orange jumpsuit is kinda kinky tbh.

Muppets Take Manhattan ftw. I don’t watch many movies but will always stop to watch this one.

so much nostalgia in one movie.

has anyone asked you how your jimmys are doing recently?

If your jimmys are rustled or if you’ve been in direct contact with someone that have had their jimmys rustled, please seek help.

If you’re not sure if your jimmys are rustled the following symptoms may apply.

• poor hygiene
• being upset by things that don’t concern you
• water retention
• being upset by things you can’t hope to understand
• being upset by the size of your penis
• being upset that nobody cares about your opinion
• diarrhea (rectal and verbal)
• being upset after coming to the realization that your thoughts or ideas on a subject aren’t shared or don’t matter
• having or protecting opinions that are illogical or pointless
• sensitive nipples
• shrinking testicles
• relishing the taste of prolapsed anuses
• unsightly hair growth around the neck and back

as a child of not divorce but it was normal for parents to be so cold to each other and towards their children, I was confused until your comment.

when I realized I had a good laugh, then realized how fucked I am by not realizing it sooner.

The only life it’s supporting has been called, “grotesquely disproportionate” and “massively disappointing”. Leading women everywhere to ask, “is that it?” or “ya game is bigger, acorn!”

you just reach out and grab a bucket?

it’s not that they don’t value your time, it’s that they value security compliance checklists over productivity.

in the same boat myself. Told them the same. practicality begged them to allow me to use docker otherwise tasks would balloon from an hour to complete to literal days.

after two weeks of discussion they finally relented. Probably cost the company $50-70k in those two weeks in salaries alone when you include the entire dev team, IT, security, compliance, and mgmt.

it’s amazing that this shitshow called capitalism is still functioning.

You’re in stuffy room tethered to a machine by a million wires everywhere from your knees up and covered in smelly glue and sticky pads.

I did sleep study.

I did just fine. barely an inconvenience.

but I’ll be more productive without coffee.

hate for a system that has abused its victims for decades runs deep.

expect it to continue at least, grow to encompass more saintly visages at most.

natural enshitification. it’s like the opposite of natural selection where instead of only the strong survive, the remaining suffer and plague the rest of the species.
