Looks like my sister before I installed a lockbox on mine
Somebody has never read Fahrenheit 451.
Ah shit you got me. Why do you need to embarass me like that
It’s a good book, I highly recommend reading it.
The people in this comic are both monsters.
You don’t touch the thermostat.
Commercial HVAC, especially at restaurants, is a completely different beast to home AC. You need a stable set temperature so you can tune the air balance. You need it to be slightly positive to neutral so the doors won’t fight customers and you don’t get a huge dump of outside air every time they open.
You use Home Assistant to create many complicated automations to control it automatically, obviously!
That is definitely super cool, but also would still require further custom automations for it to work the same as I have mine set up, and I still have further improvements I want to make to mine. I will definitely be looking into replacing some of my stuff with that though.
The biggest issue with that comic is someone being cold at 69°F. Your circulation is Fucked with a capital F if you’re cold at that temperature.
I live with my elderly parents and they like to keep the house at 80F. I managed to eke out a compromise to keep the thermostat at 75. Naturally enough, they bitch quite loudly about the monthly gas bill. In summer with the AC on they keep the thermostat at 65 and wear sweaters and sit watching TV with blankets around them.
We have the same parents then. I don’t know how they do it with such extremes. 65 in the house and walking out to 90 is such a shock to my system.
That’s ≈ 20.5 °C and yes (I find anything above 21° outside already almost too warm)
As somebody living in the tropics, that’s freezing temp
Back when I had been out for my hip replacement I was shivering at 74
“Put on a sweater.” -every Dad
Even with my hoodie on it was too chill. Nowadays I sweat at 78
I get sweaty hands at 72. makes it very annoying to work with a mouse and keyboard.
Its exactly that temp here and I wear a hoodie in this time of year. I think its more related to (recent) physical activity than just poor circulation.
Or the house is drafty.
These psychopaths had it set to 80 before, so I’d guess that’s an accurate evaluation.
You’re good. ;)
I mean something in the entire house will burst into flames at 420
The auto ignition temperature of hair is ~390
Look, this fool is relying on AI. Everyone point and laugh!
That appears to be a guess at best. Kinda a hallucination.

The practicalmachinist is just a random forum thread, but with various numbers scattered through it. The Wikipedia article doesn’t even talk about ignition temperature, from what I can parse.
FYI ‘default’ LLMs are really bad at numbers, due to the way they sample and tokenize them. Don’t trust them for that.
But if you must, use a big LLM instead of DDG’s default. I suggest this, which has an excellent web research mode:
Or this, at a low temperature, though its research mode isn’t as good:

As a side note, GLM 4.7/4.6V run on peanuts, and Gemini runs on TPUs with some exotic attention mechanism, so it’s probably less power usage than whatever DDG is using.
Ddg uses chatgpt
Which model though? What settings? 4o mini at ~1 temperature?
That’s both power inefficient and not very intelligent/reliable.
Paper has auto-ignition temperature higher than 420°F, I would expect wood to be at least same as paper or higher
Edit: ok, I found a link to the study that says the wood will ignite at a lower temperature but will require some time (maybe the same is true for paper, now I’m not sure, it definitely chars in the oven)
The problem with using an oven as a reference is that the majority of ovens have relatively large temperature swings. You might set it to 420F, but the temperature swing can be anywhere from 10-60F, so it’s possible to hit 480F which is well over the autoignition temp.
That’s why the carpet caught on fire first
But nylon and polyester have an autoignition temp of over 400C (~750F)
Pleb, we have cotton carpets
Could’ve gone down to 67 and then up to 69.
I’m almost entirely certain this comic predates that meme.
by about 6 to 7 years
The fight where is too hot or too cold.
Missed a great opportunity for the last panel to have her looking at the “camera” like Disaster Girl .
worth it
I don’t know why it bothers me so much that the insides of their mouths are the same color as their skin or beard
This is why dad got mad at me for messing with the thermostat.
Nice.
I wouldn’t be upset at all. I’d be like:
Now you get us 1 million dollars😤👌
😘🫂Do 7 of those and you’ll get into Sam Altman levels!

Do the villain plan (whatever it is) 7 times, and you’ll get to the size of one Open AI.
elim5, still 😵💫
“Sorry, 100 billion!”
He needs to up his number.
this is fake; women don’t like those kinds of jokes
