Those things are not good. They are basically advanced fans. The entire “hot side” is still 8naode your house, and whole it has the hose to pump hot air out, essentially more air (normally from outside, which will be hot) has to come in to replace it. Ultimately thosw machines will make your house hotter, even if they are able to blow cold air on a specific area.
Strangely the old American style ones they hang out of a window are some.of the most effective, though we don’t really have any windows like that in Europe anymore to hang those AC units out.
To me though, that is not what twitter was for. It was for getting news about events from various places, not from a narrow echo chamber.
I looked at Mastodon maybe a year and a half ago, and was like “wait, it’s all just for one subject, it’s like discord, but somehow worse”

No. No I would not.
Exclusive optimisation is amazing. Some of the games they squeezed out of some consoles is amazing. I can’t believe tears of the kingdom runs so well on the switch. There was also an amazing PS2 game called “black”.

Games@lemmy.world•5 Reminders NOT to Pre-Order Games This Year ~ We used to demand trials before buying before, what happened? ~ Stop Pre ordering GamesEnglish
31·3 years agoI have never pre-ordered a game.
I have however pre-ordered collectables which “come with a game” (despite the collectables likely being more than the game) or the privilege of being able to hang out with my friends at midnight to collect a game on release. And of those games Halo 2, Halo 3, and Battlefield 3 were the only 3.
These days there is even less reason to pre-order, but where I lived and the local small game shop, sometimes the only way to get a game within the first MONTH of release was a pre-order, where the store would literally… Pre order. Its not a pre-order for you at the store, its the store ordering it from the distributor / publisher.
The very first game i ever purchased on Steam was a game where i went in for the 3rd week in a row and they said “sorry, still not had any come in for re-stock”.
And now even more than ever is a BETTER time to pre-order. “Back in my days” good fucking luck being able to return a game if the 7 seals of security purity were not damaged. now, almost universal refunds for digital goods from most of the major game platform hosts.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•joining the fediverse to bitch about reddit is the same as going on a date, and spending the whole night talking about your ex
2·3 years agoCounter shower thought, I’m not even close to dating Lemmy. I spent 2 years getting to know Reddit, it will take me as long, if not longer due to Lemmy not being as mature as resdit was.
Right now, lemmy is the stranger at the train station asking why I am crying. It might turn into something, or I may just lean into Facebook / Instagram / YouTube / discord more.
