Technology ConnectionsI don't normally like being Mr. Grumpy old man, but it is currently 68° (20°C) and just about perfect outside, yet I hear a bunch of air conditioners running.
Consider opening yer dang windows, people!
The thing is, I know what's going on, here. Sure, some people want to keep their windows shut for allergy reasons, but it got pretty hot a few days ago so people switched their thermostats to cooling mode and simply stopped thinking about the weather.
It got to about 73° in here from insolation before I opened up windows, so some ACs would definitely be kicking on by now if people did the ol' set and forget
And THEN. Then there's those people who live such decadent lives as to put their thermostat in "auto" mode
This Midwesterner finds that lifestyle so foreign
Cuppa Truth@TechConnectify A conversation I have with my SO way too often (we usually have the AC set on 72):
"Can you turn off the AC, it's 68 and cold"
Me: but.... It's not running because thermostat is set to 72.
"Please turn off the AC, it's too cold."
Me:....................................OK.
