Musk wasn't ever going to go through with it. He was hoping Zuckerberg would decline and then he'd look like the big tough guy, but it fell apart when Suck called his bluff so now he just looks (even more) foolish.

IT is picky about what I'm allowed to install on their machines.

We're doing a major bathroom remodel at the moment and as part of the project are planning to replace the 15 year old electric water heater that came with the house when we bought it. Heat pumps work by exchanging heat from the air around to the water in the tank, which means that in addition to reducing humidity they also put out cool air. Usually they are installed in a garage or basement where that doesn't matter as much, but we don't have a basement and putting it in the garage would require a lot more work in terms of plumbing and electrical work, so we're going to keep it where it is in the house but install vents that exchange air from the attic in the winter, then in the summer we can flip open the vents and cool/dehumidify our house.

They're expensive up front but there are federal tax credits through 2032 (I think) of up to 30% of the project cost ($2000 max) and on top of that our local electric company is offering rebates of $800 to replace an electric or gas heater with an air pump. So that will reduce the upfront cost by a pretty good amount.

The only thing I'm at all concerned about is the noise of the motor, but the heater won't be adjacent to any bedrooms so I don't think it'll be a big problem in any case.

I use it for some tasks at work that don't function correctly on Firefox (for whatever reason our local intranet doesn't play nice with FF) but other than that, I am almost exclusively using Firefox.

Now if someone can come up with a better search engine than Google....

I would love to see this happen but I suspect that the number of users who actually install ad blocker extensions and are willing to switch to a new browser once they stop working is fairly insignificant compared to the total numbers of people browsing in Chrome.

Liberia and Myanmar also use imperial units, but they're both starting to move towards metric in recent years so soon the US truly will be alone in that

Also it doesn't say where those garments have to be worn. I'm putting on my jacket as a cape, slacks on my head, and tying a tie around my dick. Technically compliant with your stupid dress code.
