i have lived in an apartment in the US wherein the heat turned on the same day every year, and ran everyday starting and ending at the same times. from what i heard from my neighbors this was not uncommon for converted homes and public housing.
not every heating unit works like you think it does!
you’re assuming apartments without thermostats are logging temps and sending them back to a central unit, which is then averaging the temperature of EVERY unit in order to maintain a temperature.
once again, occam’s razor. the way this is usually done is just running the whole building’s heat at a set temperature for a set period of time every day. literally nothing you do as a tenant will change the amount of heat coming out of your vents/radiators.
or management runs the heat less, which would’ve also been the perfect-world outcome of trying to talk to them like you suggested. occam’s razor and all that.
if management is already running heat 24/7, opening the window is absolutely the answer. the other apartments won’t appreciably suffer from you bleeding heat, realistically you’re only changing your own temperature.
i somehow knew it would be him

3·10 天前we were already really close, both really sex positive, and both in committed relationships. we both told our partners, and THEY both thought the situation was hilarious.
anyway yeah, years on now and we’re both single after a 5 and 11 year relationship respectively. i’m excited ^^
and then you hear an abnormal structure that tickles your brain just right, and now you’re going down a rabbithole about south american drum patterns or something equally insanely interesting… 😬😬
3?
babe i’ve lost track of how many backburner projects i have going.

Games@sh.itjust.works•Steam adds official support for game version-specific Workshop modsEnglish
10·10 天前YOOOOOO this is pretty sick actually!
lotta games end up with a non-current version becoming popular because of mod compatibility. in the absense of such support on steam, A LOT of workshop content gets straight abandoned after a game updates.

so hey, who knows, could be all upsides ^^
the philosophy reads like coping mechanisms of an abused spouse

1·15 天前it’s either fedora kinoite or fedora silverblue based depending on whether you go with the plasma or gnome version. i just built this pc, it’s all AMD and it’s worked perfect out the box so far.

so the last time you were at this restaurant the meal was also shit, but you’d rather complain about THAT time while the waiter is actively pissing on you right now.







completely genuine, eh?
