I may unplug our refrigerator at peak heat tomorrow and replug it in at night. can pack the important frozen stuff into the deep freeze in the other room. Everything should keep for a few hours at least, and it would take pressure off the AC.

Fifty, Foul, A Sly Drunk @FunkyDuffyReplying to @eigenrobotThe Poor of the Sunbelt have a particular affinity for aluminum foil. Make sure you use the shiny side and not the dull side. Small sections with enough scotch tape to keep everything flush to the glass. You may want to consider prioritizing windows on the west side instead.4 replies 0 retweets 59 likesShow this thread -

further problem to mitigate: for some reason the AC unit blows up sometimes. going to make a device to stop directing air at the ceiling, using the vault instead to trap hot air. convection seems like my enemy here given how much the roof is gonna bakehttps://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1409461775838289921?s=19 …

I genuinely appreciate the metis from Sunbelters. I have not needed AC for my entire adult life and I am kind of going on half-baked episteme here

went back and checked which way the aluminum was facing nearly every piece is facing dull side outward because of fucking course slowly and painstakingly reversing it sunrise was 5:00a 45m later it's almost 80 outside this is going to be an awful day on the west coast

the problem is not the temperature per se, it's that nothing is built for this, maybe excluding some office towers. but not older buildings especially AC remains relatively rare in seattle the usual heat advisory is "stay indoors" but that doesnt work if "indoors" isnt cooled

starting to think the foil is counterproductive. it's really heating up, even when correctly-oriented. might try to replace it with the plastic.
