    Natural gas?

    My HP water heater uses very little electricity and is in my basement but it does make a humming noise and would be annoying if it was nearer to our living space.

    Natural gas?

    We also have geothermal heat and no gas. I was told that geothermal heating cost is comparable to natural gas. Natural gas is not available here. We also use an induction cooktop that heats as fast as gas. Also have a heat pump water heater. No gas here unless I drink too much milk or eat beans.

    Looking for a new tool, 4lb sledge replacement, power tool option?

    Raising the mower deck an inch would help. Mowing a little higher beats tearing up your mower. The blades will last longer too.

    You Know You Are Old When

    We had a milk house that had a cement tank. The tank was filled with cold water. Ten gallon milk cans full of milk were placed in the cold water for cooling.

    He's fortunate that nobody reported him for beating his mule excessively. I've seen the Amish around here getting rough with their horses.

    Cleaning Under Zero-Turn Deck After Every Session: Really Necessary?

    So you don't even clean it when you sharpen the blades? I may have OCD that makes it difficult to leave all of that sh@#$t there when removing the blades. It's not that hard to do.

    All of our milk was delivered directly from the barn to the house after I milked the cow before school.

    New Mexico / Colorado

    In open range areas they build fences along the highway to keep stock off the road. That fence looks tall enough to keep wildlife off the road. My brother lives near 160 between Pagosa Springs and Durango.

    In the spring, the horses shed more but a GSD sheds all year long.

    Dog Hair - Read at your own risk!

    Wow, we always brush our GSD outside. He spends more time outside anyway. He'd rather be out with the horses.

    How could Artificial Intelligence become dangerous?

    It seems like a poor use of electricity. The datacenters use so much electricity that will cause electricity prices to increase, just so people don't have to use their brain.
