-20 ºC winters have entered the chat

Wearing a sweater still makes sense there. To spend less energy.

But in that case it'll be more a matter of heat isolation. Though when such a low temperature exists on the outside consistently, air humidity drops and it sucks heat less. I think it works this way, but that's pure intuition or something, my physics knowledge sucks definitely.

haven’t seen a shitpost hit a nerve this hard in a while, hahaha!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

To a point, yeah. But when it's -40 outside, heating to 18 or 21 doesn't make much of a difference energy wise.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 4 weeks ago

yeah unless you're drying off the thermostat should never be above like 58 for heating. Layers fix everything else

People in this thread are hitting us with all sorts of whatabout stories with extreme conditions; and meanwhile I'm working in a office where people will come in and turn on the cooling because they just walked up some stairs, and then turn on the heating after they've sat down for a couple of minutes. No concept of self regulation. Just any hint of discomfort means the room has to change temperature.

It that context, the pushback in this thread is a bit depressing.

This is a great way to mess with the self appointments lords of the thermostat as they caw their favorite sayings like "Wear a sweater" and "turn the lights out when you leave the room".

It's the nuclear age grandpa. I'm cranking my thermo to 23. Take your shirt off if you're warm.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

No pants it is then.

"This meme was made by someone in a warm climate."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago

I mean, I'm in Moscow and it's barely below 0 degC.

But - yes.

You can't put sweaters on pets

You need to have one room You can heat if needed to keep the pet in if it's going to get cold

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago

I mean, they have a built-in sweater. If they got really cold you'd see them cuddle up in a blanket, on a bed, or close to a person. Either way I bet you'd be more risking your pipes freezing than harming your pets.

You can’t put sweaters on pets

I know many retirees who disagree.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

Zonal heating what what. My home office is the cat office during the day.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

I've lived in my current place for over 10 years, and so don't actually know if the heater works.

Then again, I live in Texas (and was away from home for the big freezes we had in 2021 and 2023), so it's rarely an issue.

But air conditioning is a different story. I can only trove so much clothing, and without air conditioning my little trailer home gets to like 120 degrees in the summer.

Except for baby, kids, convalescente people, handicap people, eldery, and people with a very cold floor and wall that offset the overall room temperature.
This is just extrastrong ableism.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I won't go into detail because it's personal and a bit gross, but adding on layers doesn't always work for me due to a disability. I just become even more uncomfortable, and my extremities are still in pain...
