The air conditioner in my apartment does this thing where, after reaching the desired temperature and shutting off, it turns on again every "x" amount of time afterwards to draw some air in and sample the temperature. If it's still below the setpoint, it'll wait a little longer before sampling again. However, if it performs 3 or 4 temperature checks in a row without it needing to cool, it waits FOREVER to do the next one, like 8 hours. If THAT one still doesn't need cooling, I'm drat near convinced it just shuts off (even though the display stays on). I can totally understand this from an Energy Star and economical standpoint, but it's really annoying. I live in Phoenix, and during the day we're already hitting 100 degree temps, but at night we're dropping to the mid-70's to low 80's. If I set the temp on the AC to 75, it'll keep the apartment cool during the day, but as night falls it may not need to cool for those first 3 or 4 checks, then it'll wait ALL NIGHT as the apartment slowly heats up, but the check it does right before sunrise may still fail as it's getting the cooler air from outside. Then it'll sit all day and I'll go to class and come back to a 90 degree apartment, even though the AC was still technically "on." This means that, at least once a day but more like 3+ times a day, I have to manually turn the AC off, wait five seconds, and then turn it back on for it to sample and finally kick the compressor on. And it's a brand new Amana unit, not some old junker (I had a problem with the one installed when I moved in, so they gave me a new one).

Does abdy like here like spicy food? Not Mexican food spicy, not even a decent Vindaloo spicy, but random noodles from the Chinese supermarket spicy? These noodles are a whole other thing. You try some. No big deal. Then you saliva arrives, and it’s somehow spicier. You drink something, but the spicy saliva comes back, the only thing that helps more spicy noodles, rinse, repeat. Also: I drove a CVT 1.6 Petrol Nissan Juke and it was the worst car ever.

Can you put something on the supply feed to interrupt it automatically at set times?

Fo3 posted:Doesn't that poo poo only happen when you set the fan speed to (and or temp) to auto? Because unless things have got really crazy in the past 5 yrs, or if it's a US thing... Nah, even with a set fan speed it'll shut off after like 20 minutes tops and start the sample cycling, just at that fan speed. cakesmith handyman posted:Can you put something on the supply feed to interrupt it automatically at set times? I can, but the default setting after a power interrupt is "off." Honestly an Arduino IR blaster seems to be the solution, which is BS.

I love those, and order them 50 at a time from amazon. I add more hot sauce to the regular ones. The 2x ones are very hot and if you're not used to spicy food good luck.

They definitely pack a pretty good punch. SO TASTY TOO, and as doodie pointed out, there's a 2X version that's more awesome.

I thought I liked spicy food but guess there is always further to on the bell curve.

The fan, in the "fan" setting, only stays on for an hour! Is this how you got your Energy Star rating, Amana? Is it?!

turned 30, i'm officially old now. Big family celebration is getting folded into holiday stuff tomorrow, but my mom did stop by with a slice of pizza from Lazy Moon. Their slices are off of 30-inch pies; one slice is bigger than some pizzas. Buffalo chicken and bacon; my tastes are known.

stump posted:Does abdy like here like spicy food? Not Mexican food spicy, not even a decent Vindaloo spicy, but random noodles from the Chinese supermarket spicy? They sound tasty. I'm gonna hunt some down! It also appears that like many chicken flavoured things that they are also made with 'artificial chicken flavouring' thus making them vegetarian/vegan. Suck it meat eaters.

I find the 2x hot pretty hot, and I add that Dave's ghost pepper chili hot sauce to things regularly. Be careful not to drain too much water when you cook it unless you want to cry.

Be careful not to drain too much water when you cook it unless you want to cry. I drain all of the water, then add the packets and just stir and nuke for another second, cause all I have at work is a microwave. The regular is like...just spicy enough to taste it, the 2x is like the sweet spot between tasty and "this hurts."

Huh. Had what felt like a small scab on the back of my arm (like tricep area). Idly scratching at it, but it felt VERY hard. 10mm long bit of wire from angle grinder cup brush embedded in my arm. Oops.
