Oh… So… LOL!
Thanks for the explanation, now this is actually really funny.
And you also did a pretty good job adapting it to the topic, thought you to be an actual ranting air conditioning nerd! :-)
- Comment on Everytime 5 days ago:
Well, it would also help blocking sunshine from heating their south wall, but before that, something must have gone horribly, horribly wrong…
- Comment on Everytime 5 days ago:
Here’s the thing. You said a “heatpump is a A/C.”
Er… No?
I said “In this context” (using it to keep a room cool), a heat pump is AC.
No generalization, specifically just this usecase.And while the rest of your rant is not wrong, it just not applies to what I actually said…
- Comment on Everytime 5 days ago:
Here in Germany we have outside jalousie blinds on every window that also serve that purpose during summer.
- Comment on Everytime 6 days ago:
Also heat pumps!
Isn’t that not just another word for AC in this context?

l mean, I should still have plenty of time, as it is still quite early in the evening!

Had to uninstall Unciv from my phone.
Having a Civ-like install 24/7 available in my pocket isn’t something I can handle… - Comment on Everytime 6 days ago:
But AC wouldn’t cover the balcony (which here is the most common usecase for awnings)?
- Comment on Everytime 6 days ago:
80% of the flats where I live have one above their balcony - and we are not even close to treeless.
I was really bewildered by the idea that someone might not know what these are…
- Comment on Taking to social media to complain about hot subway rides? You’re not alone, study says 1 week ago:
ls it the excess heat from the carriage ACs pumped into the tunnels and stations?
Up to now I have experienced it only on a line running suburban trains underground for a few km at a tight cycle.
They came in from outside hot as Mercury, getting rid of their accumulated heat underground with their ACs blasting at maximal setting.Anybody from the mentioned cities here to report their experiences?

Rookie numbers!
Here it’s 50 cents more per litre (~0.22 gallons)… 😖

Hot take:
If DST still makes the evening on Halloween too bright, you actually don’t need DST. - Comment on I blame Obama 1 week ago:
Yes, but in this states it’s in three weeks…
- Comment on I blame Obama 1 week ago:
But daylight savings day is on March, 29. 🤔
And what does this strange word “international” mean?

Solid breakfast!

Sure I’ll support, but let’s talk about adequate weekend bonuses first.
And you sure won’t mind that I’ll take Monday off in exchange, will you? - Comment on You can tell a lot about a man when you discover the thing he is most proud about .Of what are you proudest?” January 17,1937. 2 weeks ago:
Didn’t know that Linkedin has been around that long already.
- Comment on British children are growing taller but not for the right reasons 2 weeks ago:
Body-fat caused hormonal imbalances (mentioned in the article).
This also includes estrogen and testosterone, linking it to precocious (early) puberty.
And it doesn’t exactly cause tallness, but often quite the opposite: Affected persons typically are shorter than the norm.
It just triggers growth at an earlier point in life. - Comment on British children are growing taller but not for the right reasons 2 weeks ago:
The missing line from the summarizing lead:
The increases in average height are closely linked to rising childhood obesity among poorer children and widening socioeconomic inequalities.
So the reasons are child poverty and the accompanying unhealthy diet.

B’cause XOR!!!
- Comment on Hose Clamp Security Gate Chain... 5 weeks ago:
TBF, this doesn’t look like a security feature, but just a convenient way to span the chain taut.
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 5 weeks ago:
This is solid advice, although in my case it has been a ticket without Zugbindung, as it has been for a work trip.
I got reimbursed one time last year, but had several trips where the delay annoyingly just stayed a few minutes below the magic 1hr mark. :-)

Wow, that must be the most frustrating feeling ever.

Yes, seatbelts and comfortable seats.
Definitely an improvement to the Regionalexpress! - Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 1 month ago:
Sadly a thing of the past…

Celebrating sounds very Italian… We Germans just share some sarcastic comments with our fellow travellers. :-)

What happened […]?
The long term effects of privatization and decades of car centric politics.
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 1 month ago:
Or the Swiss.

You can imagine I gave up and did not go.
Not an option for me, mandatory appointment.
But something similar happened for as with your buses, but fortunately in a good way:
The preceding ICE was even more delayed, so I was able to catch that one instead. :-)
