  • If everyone had solar panels and thought like you, we’d still have globe warming

    Energy is heat. There’s no such thing as cold, just lack of heat.

    Trapping sun rays then releasing hot air warms the planet. That’s what your system is doing. Removing heat from your house and putting it outside while your electric motor throws out extra heat.

    It just doesn’t have the air pollution that burning coal or gas does.

    your freezer at -18 °C (0 °F) or lower. This will keep your food out of the temperature danger zone between 4 °C (40 °F) to 60 °C (140 °F) where bacteria can grow quickly.

    According to Canada.ca

    Every 2 F is basically 1 C. You have more whole numbers with F.

    Like -15°C is 5°F

    6°F is -14.4444°C

    -14°C is 6.8°F

    So 5, 6, and 7°F are about equal to -15, -14.5, and -14°C.

    And it’s not just a random number. You know how much more energy would be used if everyone kept their freezer just a couple degrees colder? It’s the optimum recommended temperature.

    Not sure where you got -4F from.

    USDA, United States Department of Agriculture, recommends 0°F or -17.8°C

    100°F in the shade isn’t extreme, and you’d be able to survive normally (With more water, everyone can use more water)

    100°F is hot tub water

    120°F is recommended hot tap water

    140°F water will pretty much burn you instantly

    0F is the temperature a freezer needs to be to keep food fresh.

    50F is the point that you can’t survive without clothes, your body will not generate enough heat.

    100F (38C) will not burn you alive. You can survive for a long time in a sauna at 200F.

    100F is perfect hot tub temperature

    0-150 is the better range, and 75 is right in the middle. 100 is just a hot air temperature most people don’t want to be in but it’s not an extreme.

    Saunas can get up to 200 degrees

    Hot tubs are usually at 100

    Freezers need to be at least 0

    You say 15°C. 6° cooler than room temperature. But how much is 6°?

    It’s 60°F.

    50°F or 10°C is where you need clothes to survive

    300, 325, 350 is where you bake cookies (149-176°C)

    Fahrenheit has a bunch of 5 and 10s

    Saying something like high 70s or low 70s for temp represents an easy way to tell temperature.

    21° to 26° for celcius

    I walk outside and say “It feels like high 70s today” someone using celcius would say, “Feels like 25°”. If it was a little warmer than “low 80s” compared to “Ehh about 26 or 27°C”


  • No one understands what a bidet really is.

    In the old days, they were a separate free-standing device. Not a lot of people have space or money to add one of these types of bidets to their bathrooms

    Now they make them as toilet seat attachments that don’t require extra space and really aren’t that expensive.

    But people don’t know. Older people will be like, “Oh a bidet? No I don’t want another toilet like device in my bathroom”

    So that gets rid of all those people.

    Next you have the people that know about the new style bidets that’s just a fancy toilet seat.

    Their biggest deterrent is probably cold water. Spraying cold water on their butt doesn’t appeal to most people.

    You can get bidets that heat the water, but you have to have power behind your toilet, which not everyone has.

    Then you have older people that just can’t work them or don’t feel like they can. Like my grandfather, I installed one with all the bells and whistles for him. Yet hitting a button and doing all that was too complicated. He was 90+ and could barely use a cell phone for basic functions. But he’d rather wipe his butt like he knew than mess with the “complicated” bidet.

    Eventually everyone is going to own a bidet, it really is the way to go.

    We just aren’t there yet.
