Vulcan, Alberta.

Famous because of a spaceship that landed there once, I think.

Some people with pointed ears may have also been involved, but I would replicate that with a grain of salt. I haven't really looked into it.

operating temperatures down to -15C

I would personally triple check to make sure this means what you think it means.

Assuming it does, you should be in the clear. Cutting the power when it gets colder is probably not necessary since the freezer won't have any reason to run, but it might be a worthwhile precaution anyway. If for some reason the compressor does try to run with frozen oil, it might damage itself or try to draw too much power and blow a breaker (or start a fire if your wiring is sketchy). Better to be on the safe side.

Not only that, it was the 1 game they played exclusively on amazon prime. Seems rather suspicious if you ask me.

"Steam gauges" on car/plane instrument panels. Yeah, digital displays are cheaper to manufacture and less prone to failure, but they kinda suck the fun out of it.

I seem to remember some list of "enforceable conditions" set out by the government for this merger. So those were bullshit, I guess.

Another W for the telecom cartel.

I used what known as 2's compliment. Take the complement (flip all the bits - here that would give you 01110 which is 14) then add 1.

Did you only try F2? It's possible the graphical session is on tty2 - see if ctl+alt+F1/ 3 does anything

Not a myth. What's inside the fridge doesn't really matter when talking about efficiency. It pretty much only depends on the rate at which energy seeps into the fridge from outside. All else being equal, chest fridges allow significantly less heat transfer through an open door than regular fridges, and are therefore a more efficient design.

You're completely right about the second part, though. It's just not practical, and the fact you would have to keep the door open longer while you rummage around for stuff renders the point moot anyway.

You should look into kodi. It's a big screen oriented media player/organizer app.

This is why carbon pricing should be done upfront. Pretty hard to lie about the physical volume of fossil fuels getting delivered to your factory

 

He stunned Markstrom with the intense, prolonged eye contact lmao

 

Effective July 1st, businesses are no longer permitted to provide new plastic shopping bags to customers. Paper bags now come with a mandatory minimum fee of $0.15 as well.

Happy waste reducing, y'all!
