Is asking questions about basic things an ADHD thing? I thought it was an autism thing.

Yep, already dropped of my mail-in ballot in person and received an email from the county election supervisor that my vote counted 🤠

I would censor the work f–k because it might come off like you’re being passive aggressive and aren’t really trying. Reminds of the time the actor that played Burke on Grey’s Anatomy called the actor that played George a fa—t, then made a public apology saying he’s sorry he called him a fa—t and that he wont say fa—t again, except he said the word. People got even more pissed, and I think he was fired from the show. 🤦

I previously made a comment on how I’ve learned to apologize if you’re interested.

ive been disconnected. what happened?

exactly what i was thinking about. it was such a tense and shameful period.

right, me too! 😁

glad you found us! come on over and check out our communities

Thanks! I hope it takes off :D

thank you!

The next gen is gonna be making fun of Gen Z by saying “formally Twitter” and Millennials are finally going to win.

This is a good starting point! Thank you very much

Good idea! Thanks for the info and suggestion.

Depends on the unit and whether it was over sized or under sized for the space, but restricting 60℅ air flow is a lot.

Thanks for your response! I appreciate it. Do you know how I can investigate this further? I would like to figure out if I’m over-stressing my unit because I’ve been doing that for the past ~2 years.

Another thing to consider is that if you later want to heat up the entire house, the unit has to work harder. Sometimes it can be more efficient to just keep the house close to your target temp.

Heating up the house happens so rarely that I can’t remember the last time I did that. It may have been ~2 years.

I have been closing 3 out of 5. Is that too much?

That’s a good point I wasn’t aware of, so thanks for bringing it to my attention. Another user recommended that I set the heater to run at a low temperature in case it gets too cold, but also to run the fan regularly so that the air moves about and addresses the humidity issue.

Great suggestions! I will definitely do them. For now, I’m guessing that I’ll prolly set the central heater at ~62*F. That will make sure it kicks on when it gets too cold and will also move the air about the house. Once I try this out, I can see if I’d like it to be set at a different temperature.

I kind of like it being cold because I can cuddle up under a heavy blanket or wear my wizard robe.

I agree that burning oil would be a terrible idea. In this case, the oil would be in an enclosed radiator that is designed to function as an indoor heater. Thanks for looking out tho!

Oops! Fixed it. Thanks for pointing that out :)

It might freeze once per year…maybe. My area is surrounded by trees, so I think wind hitting the house is negligible.
