i dunno about that BS. we had a cast iron stove insert installed in our fireplace hearth and the chimeny sleeved for about $4kMornin!
More work today, but kind of in a hold pattern while the HVAC gets figured out. Quote yesterday for a furnace was $20K, so now we are exploring ductless systems.
Any of you monkeys have ductless units? How effective and costly are they for heating when the mercury dips?
I don’t have one but have looked into them. For a modern one like a Mitsubishi the COP remains above 1.0 down to something like 15 degrees. NREL has a nice document of test results iirc.Any of you monkeys have ductless units? How effective and costly are they for heating when the mercury dips?
ebike or peloton?got the new road bike bug bad. that's fun to say.
You do need to be able to take over at any time, though. Don’t get complacent—it’s great until it isn’t, all of a sudden.Commuting in this thing is just cheating. I have an autopilot going slowly in traffic and Spanish to go through my calendar and about a dozen emails while mildly looking forward while the car drove itself this is just f****** cheating.
merge points are a little bit sketchy because it does tend to center itself so if you have some a****** running up the right attempt to merge right which can cause problems clearly.
I'm not ignoring by any means. I know the limitations of autopilot. This is the 5mph slow traffic stuff. Not using it in the 470 construction areas. Just able to keep my head down with auto-braking aspect. I use Wifey's Infiniti similarly in stop and go in straight lines.You do need to be able to take over at any time, though.

I am partially excited, partially skeptical about their FSD package.
@Adventurous found the summary document, which is probably higher yield than the super boring 100 page full reports they put out. Even better than I thought, never drops below 2.0 COP: https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy12osti/54846.pdf

Technology is a bitch. When a car can stop and go for you, while you are in stop and go traffic, the risk is negligible. Doing it while driving and self-controlled is far, far different.Doing email/calendar while driving is fucked up behavior no matter the circumstance.
I'm still learning driving assist routines in the Sprinter - slightly annoying but useful, a very different driving experience.
does your sprinter have a mustache yet?Doing email/calendar while driving is fucked up behavior no matter the circumstance.

look at mr "I have so much legal smokables that I have grown tired of trimming it" over hereIf I, er...when I spill coffee, its always on my crotch. ALWAYS.
pretty sure I am permanently gonna smell like fresh ganj. the trimming is never ending.
in other news, well there is no other news, its been nothing but work, then harvest, then sleep, since the weekend.
it really sucks now that I have arthritis in my hands too.look at mr "I have so much legal smokables that I have grown tired of trimming it" over here
oh, did not know, boo on thatit really sucks now that I have arthritis in my hands too.
We did last year. This year I am taking to a buddy who has an industrial rosin press. hopefully the yield from my trim & larf will be good.Do you make canna-butter from the trimmings? That stuff makes great brownies...
London too.WOO HOO I got into the Boston Marathon next year! That shit's hard to do. It's the only marathon that you have to earn your way in.
London is mostly a lottery but they have some slots put aside for qualifiers. Same as New York and Chicago. Boston has no lottery. It is 80% qualifiers and 20% charity and sponsor runners. I qualified for New York next year and will be running it.London too.
Shhhh... Montana sucks. Tell your friends.Another fucking perfect day in Montana.
