Not sure specifically what unit your talking about, but the ductless units are typically fixed outside of the house, not usually on the window itself. And then a hole is drilled through the house to provide the cooling/heating to the headless unit inside the room. This also eliminates the need to insulate like crazy around a window unit like you're talking about.

I swear the titles given nowadays can just be random words they threw together and called it a day

With the amount of admin bloat in most government and education sectors I honestly wouldn't even be surprised at this point if that was someones legit title.

They praised some random logistics active serving member at the home opener CFL argos game and it felt pretty awkward how they did it. It just felt so forced. Really I just want these things to stick to the sports. I find that they often do these nights because they just don't know what the hell to do while there are 100 intermissions for "ad breaks".

At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter in my opinion. People are open to their viewpoints and the good thing about this platform is that the creators viewpoints don't bring down the individual lemmy instances.

My fear though with these Lemmy instances is that some of them will become dominant, such as maybe this Lemmy.ca instance for Canadian content. It can end up with the same kind of problems reddit faced where communities become echo chambers of one person's viewpoint and it is hard to move to alternative spots.

Especially when it comes to topics of "hate" and "discrimination", many people lump a lot of stuff under the "hate speech" category whereas many people would view it as normal non-discriminatory speech. It would be nice to see a place that can support viewpoints that lean far-left, left, center, right, and far right but based on the current rules/dialogue here I fear this community will likely only be more supportive of left sided conversation and will deam differing opinions as "hateful" like we see on Reddit.
