You can ventilate periodically, air doesn’t hold that much thermal energy. You can also use heat recovery ventilation, should work in reverse to keep the heat out too.

Climate@slrpnk.net•Food price fears after Europe’s heatwave destroys estimated €2bn of crops1·17 minutes agoGiven the amount of food that is lost in making meat, could this be more a case of just having to change what people eat rather than the apocalypse that some seem to make it sound like?
The amount of land and water required to feed someone on beef, compared to the amount required to feed them oats?
Now I am curious how that looks with fertiliser too. Kcal yield of growing oats without fertiliser compared to kcal yield of beef even if you use fertiliser to grow their food.
Yeah just continue to overwork doctors and nurses, I am sure its fine.
I have thought of this. Paying people less could work out alright if you bring down their living costs. Housing is most of that and a lot of that cost goes to profit for banks.
Bring the cost of housing down and a lot of people will probably be happy to reduce hours worked. If you have a high unemployment rate there should be plenty of people to cover those extra hours too.

Climate@slrpnk.net•Food price fears after Europe’s heatwave destroys estimated €2bn of crops1·40 minutes agoWhat degree of brutal? I feel like I have been told that before and then very little happens.
Food and energy prices could both double and it would still be fairly minor in comparison to the damage to my monthly finances caused by Liz Truss…
But maybe some of that is that I already live far more sustainably than most? I cycle instead of drive. Don’t eat much meat, grow what I can focusing on the higher priced things although its a very small garden so not getting a huge amount there. Guerilla gardening and foraging is the most “profitable” though.
Ahh if its just box art that makes more sense I guess.

Climate@slrpnk.net•Food price fears after Europe’s heatwave destroys estimated €2bn of crops2·52 minutes agoThe cheapest loaf in Aldi. I wonder if its better or worse for you than the more expensive ones. Cheapest ingredients but also less stuff added to it to change the texture of it.
I have mostly stopped eating supermarket bread though. It probably isn’t very good for you and its cheaper to eat oats.
So now my lunches are oats I grind up at home to a coarse flour, dried fruit/nuts and just add some water. Although lately at work I use the free milk in the fridge because its cold.

1·1 hour agoWe once had one that had what looked like a user ID in the URL. Checked with a coworker. The IDs appeared to be given sequentially. So I copied the URL and visited the site many times with different IDs.
A lot of people failed the phishing test that month and would deny it.

1·3 hours agoHow’s that economy going for you, propped up at the expense of the US tax payer.
Could have spent that on building $5B worth of homes and probably stimulated the economy more because a larger % of the money goes to regular people.

That might be about the time I remember bread going up from 35p to 45p a loaf in a fairly short timeframe but it dropped a bit after a while. Its 55p now but some of that might just be general inflation and I don’t buy bread as much anymore.

1·7 hours agoHow much per knife? I don’t need an entire set, I need 1 knife. Maybe 2. A small one and a big one and I use that for everything.
Does sound like a pyramid scheme through.
Depends on the beach. Certainly seen some that could be a few metres above the high tide line.
Wouldn’t mind a cool cellar to retreat to at this point tbh. Diggy diggy hole!
But doing it reasonably safely probably costs a fair bit for materials to reinforce the soil.
There are some shells you can get that you bury to make a cellar like this. Sand would be very easy to do this with. It would also be less efficient, pretty sure heavy soils make better cellars.
Sand dunes at beaches are often above the high tide line.
Its still fake, and sand is the worst soil to build something like this in. But it is possible it wouldn’t flood at high tide.
Normally you don’t see the individual hairs with a mans beard do you? More of a mesh and texture over it.
I mean yes, but also is that really detail we need in a game? I would rather have better performance tbh.


That is kinda like earth tubes isn’t it? Which you could retrofit. More powerful cooling can be achieved by using the tubes as part of a geothermal heat pump. Bonus there is that its also even more efficient than a regular heat pump in winter too.
