In response to this post@ai6yr Our highest day in this house so far was 99 when we had my extended family over for the holidays and bumped up the temperature for them and did a lot of electric cooking. Will definitely break that record today since the heat strips are consistently making up for the heat pump production at 10 deg F.

It’s cold out. 64kWh worth of electricity for heat since midnight and it’s only 10:50. Hope everyone reading this is safe and warm.
@vees 64 kWh? Yikes!

In response to this post@ai6yr I guess there must be services for that, I've just never run across them.

There are a few replies in my college class that I could have sworn were AI generated because they paraphrased the original poster while added almost no words , phrases, or concepts outside of the original, but they don't have the telltale use of “ and ” that ChatGPT uses regularly, only straight quotes and apostrophes.
@vees Sanitized AI output?

I just hit my following limit on my own Mastodon server. Apparently unless 7,500 people follow me, I can't follow any more than that.
Explained here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/2311
Now how do I figure out who to trim? Might need to go into Ruby and write a few queries to find inactive accounts.
@vees You're following 7500 people?!?!?!?!?!

In response to this post@octade @stumblewyk Montgomery County has one of the nicest CAD to RSS feeds I've ever seen available from a municipality, but if you can hook me up with a reliable feed from those counties I'd be happy to set them up here as bots
No, don't go to the trouble. I was just curious to see.

@octade @stumblewyk I'll be interested to see how long you can stay subscribed to the @montcopadps bot. It's a pretty aggressive poster, what with all the fires and medical calls in a county of 870,000.
I just filter out using tags. You wouldn't happen to have feeds for Cambria, Blair, and Snyder, would you?
