  • For me it's anyone that comes to my doorstep trying to sell something (including religion). To get to that point you have to walk past TWO "no soliciting" signs. That makes the person blind, incompetent, or both.

  • Many utilities offer bill discounts if you install a thermostat they can control during peak events. Some even will install radio-contolled switches on water heaters. Electric utilities have a VERY strong incentive to try and shave peak load during high-demand events.

    Source: I worked for an electric utility. We even took our buildings off the grid and ran on generator during peak-load events. It was cheaper to burn diesel then contribute to the load.

  • Usually around 74F in the summer but I'll bump it if the temps outside hit the mid 90s. 64 in the winter, I like it cold. I run a portable AC in the master bedroom during the summer while we sleep. Bit of a story there.

  • It's probably an unpopular opinion but I'm going to say it anyway. Trump needs brought to justice and this country needs a "come to jesus moment." As shitty as it sounds, I don't see a way forward WITHOUT violence. Trump is a symptom, not a cause. He just managed to push things harder and faster than those before. Something is going to come to a head, and it's not going to be pretty, but I don't think we as a country can truly heal until that happens.

    Consider that my $0.02 after drinking on a Friday night, lol.

  • Since when have GQP voters cared if the person they vote for actually does anything?! I thought they just wanted someone to "own the libs" and bitch about "woke" things (while being unable to define that that actually is).

  • The calculator defaults to semi-monthly and I think the original commenter didn't change it. Also, it defaults to your current location so the take-home will be different for everyone running the calculator (because taxes). $78k is $6500 a month BEFORE TAXES.
