re: Who has a separate phone they use for work?

How much do you value your privacy? Because if you’re using the company phone for personal use, you have to assume they can see pretty much everything you’re doing with it, including all that midget pron.

re: First major study on Data Centers and electric prices finds they actually reduce prices

existing large power system fixed costs, economies of scale in transmission and distribution, and declining unit costs for generation imply that durable demand growth lowers average prices.
It’s already clear this is not how it works, at least in Louisiana. The order of business is to grab monies through expansions/new projects, while ignoring maintenance of existing infrastructure. This inflates bills while providing continually diminishing services to the consumer at greater cost ever year. The PSCs are either slow, crooked or both, and pretty much just rubber stamp whatever the utility companies run past them.
A case study in how this works is Magnolia Water on the north shore. I believe the average user is billed something like $120/month before they even consume a single drop of water. It’s criminal.
Anyone who believes this shite deserves what they’re about to get.

I would turn the vent on for a while to dry it out
Welp, the blower is not powering on, so now I’m thinking there was actually some wind-driven rain that got into the damn thing. I just shut down the breaker to the vent. I’ll let it dry out for a few days and see if I can get the damn thing functioning again. :banghead:
Condensation Inside Hood Vent
Posted by GeauxldMember on 6/19/26 at 7:40 am
This morning, I noticed some liquid on the cooktop, which looked like a little pooled oil. I go to wipe it down and notice it’s actually water. I felt around the bottom perimeter of the hood and, sure enough, there’s a drop of water developing. Once I pulled off the covers/trap (which had an ounce or two of water in it, I could see there were condensation droplets up at the top interior of the hood.
We did not cook on the stovetop yesterday or this morning, so it wasn’t a result of warm air from the cooktop being pulled onto the cold inner surface of the hood.
I went up into the attic and checked the 8” duct, which is wrapped with insulation. No dampness on the exterior, and none collected near the penetration through the drywall ceiling. There was also no condensation on the uninsulated duct inside the cabinet above the hood.
My suspicion is that either all the wind yesterday was somehow causing the damper to stay open so much that humid air was being forced down the duct, or that there’s a mechanical issue with the damper, keeping it open and ending in the same result.
Y’all have any other ideas?

re: Finger pain after being stuck by dorsal fin of a bass
Posted by GeauxldMember on 6/17/26 at 12:49 pm to WillFerrellisking
Couple years back, I took a dorsal fin to the toe (flip-flops). It hurt for days, but no major swelling or redness. It would occasionally flare up with some pain in the months following, but again, no real redness or swelling. Then, almost a year later, out of nowhere, it swelled up and was red and hot. Doc cut out what ended up being a fairly large chunk of the fin tip, then read me the riot act about being stupid and potentially losing my toe or more.
Like everyone else said, don’t frick with it. Go to the doctor.

re: Brand new AC and vents in living room are leaking badly
Posted by GeauxldMember on 6/12/26 at 1:54 pm to rpg37
I haven’t read through the entire thread, so maybe someone already suggested this. Your vent cover condensing could be a simple issue of poor sealing between the attic and home. Take off the vent cover and see if you can feel any warm air coming from the attic. You can also see if there are any visible gaps. If there are, seal the perimeter with spray foam. You can also go into the attic, pull back any insulation and foam the entire perimeter of the register where it meets the ceiling drywall. Any hot, wet air that escapes from the attic will meet up with that vent cover, which is cool and dry and condense.
