I’m in New Orleans (so, a Texas neighbor?) and they canceled school and closed most of the major bridges because it rained the day it was getting colder. So, there was ice on the roads and bridges freeze quicker.
The biggest hassle (besides finding childcare) is that our homes are often raised off the ground and it barely ever freezes. So, you have exposed water pipes that can freeze and potentially burst when it gets that cold. You’re supposed to leave a faucet on a steady stream while it’s below freezing, which is basically always just a few hours overnight.
We don’t have the same issues as Texas with power in hot/cold weather. I think those are about policy choices unique to Texas.
I wouldn’t call Republicans winning by 10% of the vote to be overwhelming. I think that kind of narrative only serves to help Republicans by reinforcing the idea that it’s hopeless for democrats to win. Also doesn’t help that a lot of media only talk about elections and not the 2 week early voting period that we have. It’s so bizarre that early voting isn’t as well-known, given that TX was one of, if not the first, state to enact an early voting period over 40 years ago. NY only just started early voting a couple years ago!
Ded. I’d be nothing but a mass of stitches and have been burned enough times, if that didn’t heal id be dead.
Slow healing is the one thing I notice the most about getting older. I’m in good shape and all, well nourished, it’s not lifestyle. I broke my finger and it took two years to heal completely. As a kid that would have been 6 weeks, at 50 something it took 104 weeks.
Not a fan. My house isn’t built for when the temp starts dipping into the teens. Glad we’re finally getting a break today with some slightly above freezing temps and some sunshine.
Depends on what you’re talking about. If you consider all the injuries we’ve ever picked up in life, we’d all be dead. If you’re just talking about the injuries I have now not healing, then I’m fit as a fiddle.
koboldcpp works fairly well. There’s lots of different models to try and the choice depends a fair bit on your computer specs and what you wanna do with it. github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp
ToonStruck, remastered, or the shelved sequel ressurected. I’d like Burst to (exist again and) handle the development because they did a fantastic job the first time around!
The zero G room gun from enders game looks pretty sick. I wasn’t that much of a fan of the movie compared to the books but the gun design was pretty good. Also does star lords gun from marvel count? That’s a pretty sick one too.
