I'm B. I'm a #RESNET trainer, #QAD and #HERSRater. I teach #BuildingScience, #Energy #Efficiency and #EnergyModeling (#Ekotrope >>>>>> #REM/Rate). I like to talk about #EnergyCodes, #HeatPumps and #ACH50. Or how about #45L, #EnergyStar & 301/380. I use #Excel as my calculator, use the pythagorean theorem almost daily and plead with #raters to understand that an #AHRI certificate (without photo documentation) isn't good enough. I could go on but give me all the #EnergyEfficency & #EnergyMastodon hashtags.
FEDIVERSE NOTICE -- PLEASE BOOST!

To all Calckey.social users:

The preparations are finally complete. We will be migrating to firefish.social soon. All your posts, dms, etc will be in-tact.

To all Fediverse server admins:

You and your users will probably see a lot of follows from firefish.social. Please don't be alarmed, this is going to be the result of everyone migrating their account at once. Since there are only ~2500 users here, it hopefully shouldn't be too much pressure on your servers, but to be safe, it's slightly staggered to avoid bombarding a server all at once.

#CollegeFootball #CFB #GoBuffs #Big12 #Pac12 Via Stewart Mandel 🤖 @[email protected] At Pac-12 Media Day just 5 days ago on possible defectors: George Kliavkoff: "It's not a concern." Rob Mullens: "I'm not losing any sleep over that." Either they've been caught off guard -- again -- or they are truly not concerned if CU (and only CU) leaves.

Don't know how many #collegefootball #ConferenceRealignment junkies we have here but it seems like #colorado might be on the move from the #pac12 to the #big12.

Elon Musk deleted a fact check on Twitter that contradicted his tweet about Bronny James and COVID.
Mr. "Free Speech" is really Mr. "I'll Censor Anyone Who Disagrees With Me"

He then deleted my tweet about that.
