Reply to comment by commentsOnPizza in PSA: if you're concerned about electric costs rising, see if your town is part of a municipal aggregation program by tzigane

After reading all that, I’m just curious about how you got a cent symbol

If you're on a Mac with the globe key, just press that to bring up the emoji keyboard and search for "cent". If you're on a Mac without the globe key, Control+Command+Space will bring up the emoji keyboard. If you're on Windows/Linux, buy a Mac with the globe key and then press the globe key to bring up the emoji keyboard (yea, I just have no idea what to do on Linux/Windows for this).

One trick with windows is you can type any ASCII code using holding down the Alt key and then on a numeric keypad (don't think it works on the line of numbers on the top) type in the ASCII code. So cents is 155 so ALT-155 gets you ¢

One I have memorized since I seem to use it a lot is the temperature dot. ALT-248 gives you ° so you can type in things like today it is 57°F outside.

57°F is equivalent to 13°C, which is 287K.

^(I'm a bot that converts temperature between two units humans can understand, then convert it to Kelvin for bots and physicists to understand)
