I would rather permanently cut off all contact between Earth and Mars than have to program day/time conversion between them. Especially with time zones and leap years.

Am I going to reduce a room’s temperature covering a huge hopper window with either paper or reflective aluminum foil, but leaving the window a bit open when the sun shines directly into the window?
Yes, covering the window will reduce solar heating by a lot, even if you just use basic blinds or curtains. You can also get stick-on window film for cheap that might work better than blinds. You could also use a low-profile fan like this one to get airflow without exposing much of the window to sunlight.

The MicroReflex red dot for the LCP MAX seems pretty terrible.
I have the same problem with any small red dot sight. The window is just too small, it takes me forever to find the dot when drawing quickly or under pressure. Any red dot that's big enough to be useful is also too bulky for carrying. The only red dot I use now is on my nightstand gun that doesn't ever have to be holstered.

Agree with stock iron sights for carry. Speed is more important than accuracy for short range, and you have less things to snag on clothing.

In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud
Fun fact: this is where the "banana connector" came from. Before copper was discovered, early humans used bananas for all their audio connections. The name stuck, even though wires are made of metal today.

‘A literal gut punch’: Missouri workers devastated by Republican repeal of paid sick leave
Even on a day where Missourians sort of overwhelmingly voted for Donald Trump, Josh Hawley and Governor Kehoe, they also overwhelmingly voted for an increase in paid sick days.
So they elected candidates who historically have opposed labor protections and government benefits, and then expected to get paid sick leave?
