it's funny to me to watch people speculating if another company can makes the inevitable Baldur's Gate 4 and have it turn out to be a good game, like the first two games in the series weren't total bangers

i could go into how tumblr promotes OCD tendencies for hours but i'll address one thing: the ethics of media consumption. for some, pirating media by problematic creators and being critical of the source material is not enough.

almost as if the source itself will lead to moral decay by merit of its problematic elements or creators, consuming verboten media is said to be a reflection of the consumer's morality. in psychology, we call this emotional contamination--a symptom typically associated with OCD.

this is often reflected in "X fans DNI". i don't know about you, but the idea that someone can be labeled as complicit in violence and therefore untouchable simply for engaging with certain media in a critical manner without supporting the creators is a tad frightening.

re: dark lighting on Picard, maybe double-check your screen and/or video settings? Watching on my TV and while it's still on the darker side, it's not *nearly* as dark as that first cap. (I too would be super annoyed if it appeared that dark.)

TVs are brighter, yes. (TVs are different from monitors in a number of ways and my complaint is not a 1:1.) Even so, it's easier to gif Voyager than Picard. I work in an industry that requires/allows me to have professionally calibrated art monitors. If I turned up my brightness on my monitors, it would look better to me, but it wouldn't be at industry standard, which would then cause me to have an existential crisis over the certain and inevitable knowledge that every single other monitor in the world is different, often wildly so.

The other way I know it isn't just that my monitors are darker than my TV is that when I run the brightened clips through my AI restoration software (because pixelation/banding), the program pukes in my face, and results vary.

"AC Maintenance Tips for Homes and Businesses in Saudi Arabia’s Harsh Climate"

Air conditioning systems are vital for both homes and businesses in Saudi Arabia, where temperatures often soar to extreme levels. Ensuring that your AC unit functions at its best is essential not only for comfort but also for maintaining efficiency and reducing energy costs. Proper maintenance can prevent unexpected breakdowns during the hottest months, while also prolonging the lifespan of your system.

To maintain an efficient and reliable cooling system, many property owners opt for professional AC maintenance services to ensure their air conditioning units stay in top condition. Regular maintenance services can help identify potential issues before they escalate, avoiding costly repairs or the need for a full replacement.

1. Regular Filter Cleaning and Replacement

One of the simplest yet most effective maintenance tasks for any air conditioning system is regular filter cleaning or replacement. In Saudi Arabia’s dusty environment, filters can quickly become clogged with dust and debris, making the system work harder and reducing efficiency. Dirty filters restrict airflow, which not only increases energy usage but also decreases the unit's ability to cool properly. For both homes and businesses, it is recommended to clean or replace filters every one to three months, depending on the frequency of use.

2. Inspect and Clean Condenser Coils

The outdoor unit of your air conditioning system contains condenser coils that are responsible for releasing the heat absorbed from the indoor air. These coils are exposed to the elements, and in a harsh climate like Saudi Arabia, dust, dirt, and debris can easily accumulate. When the coils are dirty, the system's ability to dissipate heat is compromised, leading to reduced cooling performance and higher energy consumption. Regular cleaning of the condenser coils helps ensure optimal performance and efficiency.

3. Check Refrigerant Levels

For your AC system to cool effectively, it needs the correct amount of refrigerant. Low refrigerant levels can lead to inadequate cooling, causing the system to run longer and work harder. Over time, this can increase wear and tear on the unit and even lead to system failure. It’s important to have a professional check refrigerant levels during routine maintenance and top off as necessary to keep your system running smoothly.

4. Inspect Ductwork for Leaks

Leaky ductwork can significantly affect the efficiency of your air conditioning system, as cool air escapes before it reaches its intended destination. For businesses and larger properties, this can result in uneven cooling, higher energy bills, and an overworked AC unit. Regularly inspecting ductwork for leaks or gaps and sealing them as needed will help ensure that your air conditioning system is delivering cooled air efficiently.

5. Schedule Professional Maintenance

In Saudi Arabia’s extreme climate, scheduling professional AC maintenance at least twice a year is highly recommended. Professional technicians have the knowledge and tools to thoroughly inspect your system, clean essential components, and identify potential problems before they escalate. Businesses, in particular, can benefit from having a comprehensive maintenance plan to avoid costly downtime due to AC failure.

Whether you own a small home or manage a large commercial facility, regular AC rental service and maintenance are crucial for ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your cooling systems.

6. Optimize Thermostat Settings

Maintaining an optimal temperature setting on your thermostat can greatly impact energy usage and overall system performance. In Saudi Arabia, where temperatures can reach extreme highs, setting your thermostat just a few degrees higher can significantly reduce the strain on your AC unit. Additionally, programmable thermostats allow you to set different temperatures based on your schedule, which can help save energy when cooling is not needed.

7. Keep the Area Around the Outdoor Unit Clear

The outdoor unit of your air conditioner needs adequate airflow to function properly. Debris such as leaves, dirt, and plants can obstruct the airflow, causing the unit to work harder and reducing its efficiency. Regularly check and clear any debris from around the outdoor unit, and make sure that there is at least two feet of clearance on all sides to promote optimal airflow.

8. Ensure Proper Ventilation

Ventilation plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of your AC system, particularly in business settings where large numbers of people and equipment generate heat. Poor ventilation can increase humidity levels, making it harder for your air conditioner to cool the space. Make sure that vents and return air registers are not blocked by furniture or other obstructions, and consider using ceiling fans to help distribute cool air more evenly throughout the space.

Conclusion

Maintaining your air conditioning system is essential in Saudi Arabia’s harsh climate, where efficient cooling is a necessity rather than a luxury. By following these AC maintenance tips, you can ensure that your system operates efficiently, keeps energy costs under control, and provides reliable cooling when you need it most.

Investing in regular AC maintenance service is key to extending the life of your system and avoiding the discomfort and expense of unexpected breakdowns. Whether for a home or business, proper maintenance is a proactive step toward achieving consistent and cost-effective cooling year-round.

Where is Adjutant Veridity?

totally agree about not babying them! my issue is though there is very little grey area for some people. like these idols have extremely rigorous schedules. the starbucks and mcds boycotts do have a lot of traction in america but when you compare how many followers the national bds movement has versus the korean arm (404k versus 11k) i think people need to admit to themselves that it really isn't as big in korea as it is in the us. there are also way less and smaller protests in korea compared to america. i'm not trying to make any excuses but as someone who is pro-palestine and pro-boycott, the algorithm still hides that content from me so even if idols are chronically online they truly might not see. it's much easier for people like you and me who have the time to be on our phones and engaging in convos with other people and exposing ourselves to pro-pal and boycott-related contents but that's not true for everyone and idols and the kpop industry tend to be in their own bubble.

i mean that is true! but i do i feel even if they were aware is not like these companies that are having more ties to zionism will let them say anything but then again i don't wanna take these stance that they aren't aware because we don't know that but since a lot of them are grown adults who definitely see the news every day are probably aware of this it's very hard to say anything about this to me because at the end of the day we don't know what some of their values are because these companies let them even be political per say but it doesn't mean i will sit here and not say anything to them if they use products of certain brands even tho, yes, the bds movement isn't as "popular" in korea it's very much growing every day and there have been more demonstrations there
