Temperatures reach 46C in Spain as Europe heatwave continues

What person who need AC you fucking idiot? I was talking to you and you live in Finland.
Unlock your sphincter bro you're all tensed
You were talking about Eterra originally. I apologize, didn't realize you had memory health issues as well.
Clearly not talking to me since I don't have, or need, A/C. Since you may be geographically challenged, Finland is very very far north.

They are now it's trendy.
You think I forgot how it was in the worst days of the genocide?
Do tell, less than 1 day old Lemmy account.

Just shoot them lmao they deserve it

As this keeps happening I continue to wonder when Europe and the UK will finally realize how badly they need to air conditioning. The units are (or were in the past year or 3)b way more expensive there than here in America. I dunno about current costs. It's worth it though, even if you only need it for like 1 month out of the year.
We're very aware in the UK but it's not too easy. We have some the oldest housing stock in the world. We don't have central air with no real way to retrofit so it would have to be one room at a time. Our windows aren't designed to house those units I see in NY. We have to rely on very inefficient portable units so I only use it on the really hot days. Energy prices are still high after Russia's invasion. People are adding proper units when extending but only the rich can really afford that.

Gee, I wonder why you were banned before lol.
I really wonder what level of self hate you must have to be this much of an asshole. And that's coming from someone who was already almost killed by racists twice. I'm not surprised you're yet another person itching to kill a minority from an originally poor background.

Ah yes what we need is to burn even more energy /s
We're doomed because of idiots like you lmao. How does it feel knowing you're responsible for the end of humanity?
And your suggestion is let them roast?

It depends on the kind of heatpumps, in a lot of cases the heatpump is installed to replace a boiler, reusing the radiators and hot water circulation already available.
Unfortunately in this case the heatpump cannot be used as AC.
Not as AC, but a reversible heat pump can use the heating system for cold water circulation.
It's rather limited, because you run into condensation concerns, but it's still a possibility.
A place I used to work at did this.
It wasn't perfect, but took some of the edge off. -
Across the Mediterranean to the south and east it is even hotter. Wearing shorts and putting on sunblock isn't the best way to deal with the heat, you need to shield yourself and make use of the chimney effect.
The Bedouin lesson: A scientific study proves robes are the best garment to wear in the desert heat
A Bedouin outfit might not fit socially, but a loose summer dress might work just as well.
So as a counter to the "pants for women" movement, let's start a "summer dresses for everyone" movement.

Add to that, that all these old UK houses have about as much insulation as a cereal box.

Europe and the UK
You can just say Europe.
Nope, UK is not part of Europe anymore
-
When do we start shoving the people responsible into prisons? The airlines, car, weapon manufacturers,...
That would be inhumane, they don't have AC in prisons.

Shame I'm a fat old guy now. A few decades back I looked great in a Laura Ashley summer dress.

If anyone is interested, it's X Celsius times 9/5 + 32
"Double it and add thirty" is accurate enough for ambient temperatures, and easier to do in your head. If you need scientific accuracy then you wouldn't be using Fahrenheit anyway.

Lets all fly with our private jets to venice for a wedding!
oh also you cant use plastic straws cause its bad for the environment.
Do not Lockerbie them.
I'm joking (don't kill people) but it's strange that when I grew up there were people all over the place blowing stuff up because they thought they were wronged. Not so much today, not even blowing up an empty Elon jet for example.

The EU isn't Europe.

That was the joke.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Why would they need more airco when many houses and apartments still don't even have proper shutters for windows and many people still don't know you should keep your windows closed during peak heat hours, many roofs still barely insulated and they turned all their yards and driveways into concrete and asphalt hellscapes. A nice adult tree in your yard does more than an airco, fight me.

Maybe? But 122 is way different than 114 in this case.

It wasn't perfect, but took some of the edge off.On the other hand reversible heatpumps work great with floor heating.
Having a cool floor during a heatwave is amazing, plus no noise,

114 in āmerican
Most places in Europe have hit normal summer temperatures where I am (about 35). This is ridiculous, though. It is hotter in Spain right now than it is in Phoenix.
Let that sink in. It is hotter in Barcelona than it is in Death Valley right now.
