Problem is...that's a once in a lifetime type of thing(been 12 years since he's done it), and nobody is getting rescued if they're stuck on the summit(or right near the summit) by Helicopter, unless ofcourse you can get Didier to show up with his Eurocopter. oh yeah, agree, not sure if anyone else has tried but has been a long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( which, not saying you 'do' just sayn') get out of it. you can get internet service from different providers - you can get satellite internet and it's fine. and via those sources, you stream Hulu sports packages and it's probably better I had free cable for years in RI after it first came out. Lol you ordered a box, disconnected, cancelled and then plugged the box in. They never asked about the box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom12309 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I'm sort of getting tired of going for a bike ride in the morning and my arms numbing out where the nerve signal won't get to my hands so they can shift gears.

Both shows are on Netflix anyways...even with NCIS still running...if I can't watch the new episode when it airs, it's available on their app the following day. When I get my own place in a few years I likely will not get cable at all...major waste of money. Heck...within a few years things will be much different anyways. Eventually cable companies "go away". My grandmother pays like $160 a month for cable/house phone and doesn't even get most movie channels lol. Just down get satellite internet.

It’s one more thing to check off the list of things to get done and it’s a huge ordeal . Once they’re in , you can relax knowing when the HHH comes you are ready to roll.

Get it done while you don't have to over-exert yourself...especially if you're dealing with big and bulky AC's. Where I used to work they waited one time to install them when it was like 90 and humid. Not only is it the work though, but it's the stress on the AC itself...if you wait until its hot and humid inside to start using it, the unit has to work harder and it draws more electricity too. I think people just wait util the last second b/c the thought of installing them means $$$$$. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Lol. Installs are easy costs nothing and energy efficient AC’s don’t use that much more electricity to cool a hot room down. I guess if you are fat or a weakling it can be difficult picking up a 12k btu unit so I highly recommend strength training and tossing the jogging. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then the rest of the day is ruined, they kick their dogs, yell at old ladies walking on the sidewalk, and knock things off the shelves at the grocery store. My goodness, the adversity one faces in life when faced with HHH. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianW Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 For those still using window units LG now has a inverter window unit on the market. This is the same technology used on ductless mini splits. The compressor output speed is variable unlike a regular unit that is on or off at full output. The payback with New Englands insane electric rates would be quick. CT/MA have the higest electricity prices in the US outside of Hawaii.

The average seer rating is like 8 or something. Some mini splits have seer ratings of like 40. Take a look at what we are paying for electricity in New England. MA is approaching almost 25 cents a kwh. Any energy efficient appliance has a huge quick payback here. https://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/epm_table_grapher.php?t=epmt_5_6_a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t. Maybe I’m somehow stealing kwh’s because my electricity bill went up a whopping $30 last summer when I had 3 units cranking 24/7. In fact, it’s more expensive to leave my driveway lights on overnight then to cool the crib. Too much neuroticism over window units and electricity. Get a good one, it’s fine. Install when you want, it’s fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
