RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

HVAC. I feel like it's as much of a game changer as cocaine was to people already forking out lots for pure heroin.
Sounds good, but I'll never see the benefit
...i went to school in the tropics without air conditioning, neither in the classrooms nor dormitories, and it still feels like self-indulgent opulence to me every time i come home to air conditioning, even four decades later...
I see them everywhere in hot countries, and it boggles the mind that this is just this expensive thing that a lot of houses have now
...i generally prefer windows open to the world but i'll concede that it's niiiiice, though: i never sleep better than nestled underneath a blasting window-box on a hot summer night...
same, AC just dries out my throat
