Most people are babies who can’t live without A/C

I prefer DC for my electrical currents.

I'll take the L on this. I have no idea what you are talking about. You talking about his previous posts, or his profile?

It’s not a fad. It’s literally the majority of the population being superior to you. Congratulations, you’re on the left side of the bell curve for heat tolerance. Natural selection was supposed to kill you if not for the aberrancy of man.

Ya know with modern power electronics it's starting to become pretty irrelevant what form current is in. High voltage DC systems are becoming more of a thing now that high amperage buck/boost systems exist to take the form of transformers.

BAH we have but one A/C and it's in the master suite (converts to the emergency suite in emergencies) and it only cools the room by like 10 Fahrenheit because it's insufficient for room size.

I live off fans bruh. (Easier to do if you live in Mass in a house built on a giant heat sink made of granite.)

These days I'd only consider window units. In some parts of Australia, new split-system ACs must be fitted with a remote cut-off switch which can be operated by the electricity provider if your home is fitted with a smart meter. They can't do that if you have a box aircon plugged into a standard 10A or 15A wall socket.

At least in my part of AU the whole 'Demand Response' thing has been effectively given up on as rooftop solar covers most peak demand prior to sunset and post sunset there is usually excess capacity from being outside business hours, I don't think I have heard of anyone having to install them and I had my aircon replaced last summer, and even when that article was published a mate had a large aircon installed to go with his panels and definitely didn't have one(his house was a well insulated modern build and so it was overkill either way lol)

They are pushing batteries, Solar, and heat pumps hard here tho, specifically so they don't have to deal with people bitching about electricity prices as well as gas prices.

My roommate stiffed me on paying for a/c repairs even though he keeps setting the a/c to 66. "Well it's not my house" ok well then you've lost your a/c priveleges hope you like 75 degrees

Some actual information for a misplaced shitpost trash can thread:

In America, with its widely varying climates, postwar buildings, including houses, are designed to have AC. They're insufficiently ventilated to be without it, unless you like mold. Even a truly quality modern build will be a hellhole with no AC because they're not designed to take advantage of convective or breeze ventilation. This is why every abandoned 20th/21st century house has mold all over it within a year even if the roof is intact. 19th century houses don't just look different and have weird build plans, verandas, transom windows, cupolas, roof vents, low sill heights, windowed attics, pier and beam/large vented crawl spaces, because of fashion. Historic/Antebellum southern homes are interesting.

Also, putting windowshakers all over your house is poverty/retard tier. Unless you're poor there's no excuse for inefficient junk. I have an ERV, dehumidifier for cooler months, and central AC which is pretty much always set to 78° daytime and 75° at night.
