Try putting the filter on the suction side of the fan. This will put less load than normal on the fan and there should still be enough airflow to cool the motor.

18 months into the pandemic we have a rapidly evolving virus, waning vaccine efficacy, and breakthrough infections common enough to warrant a third booster dose.

It would be silly to risk altering one’s broad-based, naturally acquired immunity by taking an unnecessary vaccine dose. Just like no one got a chickenpox vaccine after contracting the disease there is no need to get a COVID vaccine after contracting the disease.

66% efficiency sounds amazing for compressed air. I was expecting 10%.

Sparrows moved into the neighbourhood this year. We noticed their chirping is incredibly annoying. Turns out it’s the two-chirp version.

For us this sound doesn’t fade into the background because it sounds synthetic or man made. About as annoying as a back up beeper on a truck.

Discoverability is horrible on the iOS App Store. I have looked for a good RSS reader on there in the past and only been served shovelware.

I found out about NNW from DF the other day. Even after using and installing it, it is nowhere to be seen when I search for RSS.

Apples broken App Store system surfaces cheap crappy apps. Apple wants users to make impulse purchases so they can skim 30% off the top. It’s a bad experience and is doing tremendous long term damage. Steve Jobs would be pissed.

I agree it’s hard to believe such a thing existed and undoubtedly accelerated the spread of the Wuhan Virus. Many lives could have been saved if Italy embraced social distancing instead of virtue signalling.

Florence Italy was home to Hug A Chinese National Day during the Chinese New Year when many Chinese people are allowed to travel globally.

Hopefully fewer visited the UK and even fewer had close contact with the locals.

I hope he’s right.

It seems we agree that mass migration hurts American families. The poorest get hit the hardest. So wrong.

Our refugee program is immoral. We pick and choose refugees like dogs from a shelter. Instead we should help them in place. The money would be spent on the necessities of a refugee camp, not plane tickets to America and English lessons for a lucky few. And they’d be poised to return home and rebuild their countries, which is what they want.

Gas stations are built without our tax dollars.

Imagine a future where we wait for our government-mandated chargers to charge. Hopefully there’s an app for that.

If costs keep dropping, EVs will become a no-brainer for most. Scrap the government incentives and we will achieve the inevitable.

Tesla and Volkswagen are already selling government subsidized electric cars and installing government subsidized chargers. Now they get the chargers for free. No one voted for this enormous wealth transfer from poor to rich. Nor a car ban in under 20 years.

Finally. Thank you!

I consider the previews spoilers. And autoplay destroys pacing because it skips the preroll/credits.

Paywalled beyond the first two paragraphs.

It’s impossible for a layman to determine how much climate change is caused by humans.

I am a real person and I enjoy both. Lose the dismissive attitude to escape your filter bubble.

Gun owners love condors too. But we fear this issue will be used as political cover to restrict our rights.

If we don’t build it China will.

China is weakening Canada.

This is a large part of my job because all equipment must be locked out before it is serviced.

China issues exit visas to Chinese nationals. These people buy citizenship in Canada, fly to Vancouver, and launder their money through our housing market.

How does this improve Canada? Seems like a no-brainer to push the pause button on Chinese immigration. Let’s take this opportunity to do an A-B test.

Don’t want to upset China, a large marketplace and potential investor.

Seems there are typos in table 2 rows 4 and 5.

You seem to be deliberately distracting and misinterpreting my point. Something Chinese censors would be doing today.

You have only given a half-pinion because we are still waiting for a number. How many deaths are acceptable?

China makes fake pills from fentanyl: https://www.dea.gov/press-releases/2016/07/22/dea-report-cou...

Fentanyl is a national security threat: https://m.theepochtimes.com/china-is-deliberately-using-fent...

Carfentanyl is a WMD: https://globalnews.ca/news/3108514/lethal-carfentanil-could-...

Chinese fentanyl is to heroin what vodka is to near beer.

China has taken over the black market and weaponized it against us. China sends the fentanyl precursors to Mexico. There the fentanyl is manufactured and sent to the US and Canada with the help of Mexican cartels. Our intelligence agencies won’t rule out China is doing this to weaken us. A powerful move against an already over-prescribed society.

Fentanyl is found in lethal quantities in all kinds of street drugs. Not just heroin but in pills labelled “Xanax” and in cocaine powder.

We would respond very differently to these casualty numbers in a shooting war with China. Maybe that is why China is killing us with fentanyl.

I draw the line today with 7,000 deaths/yr in Canada and 40,000 deaths/yr in America. What are your numbers?

Every day many severely pregnant Chinese roll off the airplane straight to the hospital. Free Canadian citizenship for the kid and less room in the hospital for Canadians.

I believe Chinese food restaurants are more about spreading a positive message by China. Of course some people overeat at these restaurants but that is probably not the main point.

Bad systems occasionally produce acceptable outcomes. They are still bad systems. This is common sense.
