Generally, anywhere cold air can get in (or hot air get out) is bad.
Easy temporary fix is to get some sort of adhesive plastic and put it over the whole window frame, like you're saran wrapping it. There's kits for this at home depot or lowes or whatever.
You can then also drape a curtain, blanket, etc over the window in order to help insulate

Did you drill as deep as the screw goes? My guess is not quite, since I've done the same thing.
Otherwise, get a manual screwdriver and finish those off, or use it as an excuse to get a better drill :)

Did you drill the holes into the stud, then screw into it?
Did you check your drill's clutch setting?

Temporary accommodation like this is better than nothing, but really, just give them residency and let them move wherever they like.
Or hell do that chartered cities thing and carve out a chunk of Scotland or elsewhere in the UK and let them build the city of New Ukraine, not much to lose and a ton to gain if it turns out anywhere as good as Singapore, Hong Kong, Macau, etc

Yes, and consumers will be pushed toward cheaper alternatives. That's the point
gburgwardt t1_iydoom5 wrote
15% over 20 years is pretty weak
Just tax plastic, this isn’t difficult. That’ll account for the externalities from plastic waste and encourage manufacturers to switch to alternatives

You prefer Merkel, who enabled Putin and continued trying to give him money and tie the German economy to Russia despite them annexing Crimea?

Putin was winning because Germany was much more reliant on them than they had been with nuclear plants
But you’re looking at things the wrong way if you’re always looking for who wins
Sometimes the people are just stupid and vote for stupid bs
Like in the USA when we vote for immigration restrictions or protectionism
Or in this case, Germans voting to shut down their nuclear plants because of Japan’s issues with their plants.
