any heat pump which also cools is not eligible

That’s seriously stupid - it’s the same thing except it can reverse the refrigerant flow to transfer heat energy outside vs inside.

To much backward thinking to plan for needing the ability to cool, especially given your heatwaves over the past few years.

I’m in Australia and I don’t think you can buy just a (heater) heat pump. They’re pretty cheap too - you can find split system reverse cycle easily for under £500 each.

Curious what the cheaper alternative is - what country are you from? Where I am we don’t call them ‘heat pumps’, they are just reverse cycle air conditioners and it’s the standard.

Yeah what’s with that? Doesn’t seem like they want to really try and fix the problem.

Essay in class works. Doesn’t even have to be done in one sitting. We sometimes give students a sheet with 100 squares and they’re allowed to write 100 words to bring in.

Granted it doesn’t work for everything. There are some assignments that can’t be done in that mode.
But another great technique is interviewing students about their work. 99% of the time, they have no idea what they’ve written. And you grade accordingly.

You’re not having a blood transfusion are you?

Yep - ‘open with m365 copilot’ has such a ring to it. Why they threw out their decades recognisable office branding is beyond me

That is nice! LG just did it differently - it didn’t just feel like a rectangular slab. Plus I never put a case on it with a back like that.

That picture brings back memories - such a nice phone

That first comma is a bit out of place - ‘why won’t you just try, Linux?’
‘seriously Linux, just try your vegetables’.

It’s been five years since it replaced Play Music and it’s only now getting volume normalisation?

Why the change to dual cab for the last one? Not really a fair comparison

What’s a personal?

And don’t apply for a postal vote through any forms or links that parties send you - do it directly through the aec: https://www.aec.gov.au/election/pva.htm

It looks like it’s framed as a ‘good news’ story, but:

• Almost 40 yrs old
• Works full time
• Needed to spend 7 years working (presumably more) and collecting 450,000 cans
• To be able to put a deposit on a two bedroom house on the central coast.

Like how is any of that good news?

What were you trying to achieve?
You selected the spaces on either side and dragged - it did what you asked it to?

If it automatically selected the spaces on either side, I hate that - totally justifiable anger.

Yeah I was going to say I order from inkstation (Australia) and have never had an issue with third party toner or drums. And they’re a quarter of the price of an original!

Baby race especially

This right here. Every running water noise your ears perk up thinking that it’s the worst. Then you realise it’s just the dishwasher.

Another shoutout to summit, coming from an ex-Sync user. It’s very nice.
