>>23830233weighted autism blanket time sorry
>>23830233i could bring my heated pillow
>>23830248thank god for my blanket>>23830262fancy pillow
>>23830248i had a weighted gecko. i put him in the fridge a couple times and slept with him on my chest in the summer (´∀`)
Its cold and I wake up sweating and get colder
>>23830233samehot water botlel time sorry
I, too, am cold in my room.
Time to double layer your pajama pants and socks and maybe put on a sweatshirt.
>>23830233>>23830757i cut furnace output to the basement so warm air only gets sent to the first floor, then i set the temp to 62 deg F (16.6 deg C[uck]) and i run a space heater in my room since im in my bedroom 90% of the time
>>23830761*hug*
>>23831225nice
>>23831230>nicethanks, i had family over for new years and for them i set the house to 68 and opened vents in the basement because we party down there, but since they left i set it back to 62 and just woke up and just realized i forgot to close the basement vents
>>23831238the thought occurred to me that you should be careful about temperature shock on any of the shit you keep in the basement, like maybe that old ornate wood desk or food/drugsi don't know how cold (or how suddenly cold) a basement would get when u cut the vents down there, though, maybe it's not a big dealseems like you tend to think things through...
it do seem like radiators & space heaters are a good solution for spending-a-lot-of-time-in-a-single-room-ass niggas
>>23831244it still stays an okayish temp in the basement despite not getting warm air, its maybe ~6 degrees colder but i havent actually measured itI do have some antiquey furniture but i dont think there will be an issue since its not like it gets even close to freezing down there. There is also a source of heat being the utility room which contains a furnace and a server rack. That room tends to be warmer
>>23831279so i see...seems like it could be another automation project if you really wanted to, sounds unnecessary though lol>furnace and a server rack in the same room
>>23831291>another automation projectits physical vents and shutters. it could be but its so rare that i touch them it would be pointless. Plus, i have way to many other projects that take precedence>>furnace and a server rack in the same roomyeah, its an unfinished section of basement. its also where the hot water tank is located, and where i do all indoor woodworking projectsWhy would i want a 19U server rack in plain sight? I wired my home for ethernet and it made sense to run all the ethernet lines to a patch panel in the utility room, which can be locked up and secured (and the server rack is enclosed and can be locked too)
>>23831300>its physical vents and shutters. it could be but its so rare that i touch them it would be pointless.i dunnoooo, it would be cool to be able to control those in scripts>yeah, its an unfinished section of basement. its also where the hot water tank is located, and where i do all indoor woodworking projectsah, sounds bigger than i pictured then...it just sounded like it would get too hot lol>I wired my home for ethernet and it made sense to run all the ethernet lines to a patch panel in the utility room, which can be locked up and secured (and the server rack is enclosed and can be locked too)based...vaguely reminds me of knuth's setup in "stealing the network", a room within a basement, with an alarm system that can set off thermite charges on the hard drives
>>23831316>a room within a basement, with an alarm system that can set off thermite charges on the hard drivesits where i keep my NVR for the outdoor cameras and i have a basic Eufy security system (some indoor cameras, video doorbell with chime, and keypad lock on the front door) but i havent played around with any automation of events and such, i know they make door sensors that have alerts for when doors are opened and i have 100lbs of tannerite (also in the utility room) but i'd rather not put the two together and blow up my house when someone walks in, that would be not good
>>23831335eheheh
>>23831225i don't have a basement i have never been in a basement nobody has a basement basements do not exist
>>23831316>sounds bigger than i pictured then...i just checked the property sketches, the utility room is ~12ft x 38ft so about 450 square feet with aditional storage space under the stairs thats enough to store two big upright gun safes and ~50,000 rds of ammoIts a pretty big room but the furnace and water tanks take up a good chunk and there are metal shelves for tools and lots of tables and workbenches. I've never been constrained by it being "too small" with the exception of a recent project involving four 2ft x 8ft wooden boards and it wasn't because i tried I just knew it would be much more convenient to cut them into the pieces i wanted from my garage after unloading them from my car>>23831345>ehehehI have a habit of buying large quantities of tannerite right before the 4th of July and just sitting on it. So far only 2 years in a row but i wonder how much i can manage to stockpile>>23831368>nobody has a basement >basements do not existIt might have to do with your local water table. You probably have 'crawl spaces'. Also, I wonder if some actually board up their basements like in scary movies. I have a section of "half basement?" thats inaccessible from the inside that i dont think the previous owners were even aware of>i have never been in a basementThey vary. If the house is 80+ years old its likely made of randomly sized stone with mortar in between, with a cement floor and tall people may have trouble in it. Then there are basements that are taller, the walls are cinder blocks but the rafters above your head are still exposed and you can work on wiring, duct work, water lines easily.Mine is mostly finished with thin vinyl floor to maximize floor height and drywall walls cover up the cinder blocks and I think mine looks nice but I've seen basements that look way nicer. A finished basement is a good way to drastically increase your living area and its easy enough that you could probably do it yourself in a week or two after careful planning
actually i've been in basements in listed buildings and places like that but never in someone's home
>>23831493>someone's homeIts common here but maybe some of the newer houses don't have them to cut costs??? I've never looked at listings of new houses because they are too expensive and not built as well.In hilly/mountainous areas the terrain can be shaped to make it such that one side of a basement is completely underground and the terrain around the structure slopes down such that you get a "walk out basement" with a door that leads outside
>>23831525idkidcbasements are stupid and gay
>>23831525:o
>>23831551>basements are stupid and gayEven if true, they cant possibly be stupider and gayer than you>>23831556>:oWhat? Walk out basements?
>>23831567not that stupid in my opinion
It's always too hot here, I was white so I could be cold right now
>>23831567yeees, i didn't know
>>23833770It's 2025 nigger, we have heating
>>23831227*hugs back*
