I will absolutely not bitch about the cold. I spend every day above 70 F wishing it were the dead of winter. I spend every day of winter in pure bliss because I'm not just permanently uncomfortable.

You can mitigate the cold in a plethora of ways. Layers, blankets, central heating, radiators, fire, cuddling. The heat will make me miserable all the time and the best I can do is temporary relief by a cold shower.

On a subzero winter day I'm having the time of my life in the morning walking to a local bakery for some donuts to bring home. No way I'm doing that in summer, I'd be absolutely drenched in sweat when I got home.

Yeah, my first thought was "they're all queueing up to vote Kamala because their concerns about Biden were adequately responded to."

Another laziness by the professors is using book questions instead of just writing their own.

When I taught I told my students that the book was a resource for studying the material from a different perspective than the one I gave in lectures. Not actually required for the course even though I didn't have control over it being listed as required on the course listing. And I told them if they wanted to get it, they should find the cheapest copy they could. I've heard you can sometimes find very cheap electronic copies (wink wink).

It is funny to see the questions you write end up on Chegg though.

Could be a lot of places. Washington is full of them, too.

"Ualabis"? Is that supposed to be "wallabies"?

As best I can tell from searching, that's kind of the Spanish word for "wallabies" (translate gives "ualabies"). Seems like a weird choice.

I sincerely hope you never test this theory. I think many people in this thread are severely underestimating how little noise is needed to be disruptive in the early morning.

My local noise ordinance sets the maximum permissible noise in residential areas during off-hours (10pm - 9am on weekends) at 45 dB. That can be exceeded by 5 dB for 15 minutes, 10 dB for 5 minutes, and 15 dB for 1.5 minutes. Lawnmowers are an exempt source of noise during day hours only. I guarantee if you were my neighbor your mower would be in violation of noise ordinance at night.

Plus, assume some people are sleeping with their windows open. Especially in mowing weather. Windows open overnight may be the only way they keep their house bearable during hot days.

Based on the design I think this is the one I have: https://www.ryobitools.com/products/details/46396037169#

It does say "brushless" but they've got a fair few different varieties. I don't know, I mean like I said it is significantly quieter than a gas mower. It's a good mower. But I don't think it's anywhere near quiet enough to consider using it during off hours.

My car insurance went up like 20% from last year to this year. Exact same shitty "coverage" as before.

Everyone knows your first treason is a freebie.

What lawn mower do you have that is that quiet??? I have a Ryobi electric push mower that I bought last year and while it's way quieter than a gas mower I would feel incredibly rude using it early in the morning.

And noise is different depending on time of day. Ambient noise is a lot lower in off-hours, so your mower would sound louder than it does during the day.

Clearly they all stem from the same triconsonantal root. Though I couldn't find one for رجن (assuming the Egyptian pronunciation).

Warren ran in 2020. Hillary won in 2016 because of superdelegate bullshit creating an air of inevitable victory before a single vote had been cast and the DNC actively working to suppress the Sanders campaign through smear tactics and a severely limited debate schedule.
