Why are their homes FREEZING all the time?
My dad did this growing up
>>217695623Just put on a jumper if you're cold.
>>217695623Northern and eastern euros both glorify discomfort as a part of their character. It’s ultimately a crabs in a bucket mentality though i still think it’s based.
I've heard from fresh Slavic immigrants in Israel that Israeli winters are harsher than the ones from their old country, simply because of lack of heating.
>>21769562360f is pretty comfy, not chilly but enough to drink hot cocoa.
16-18 is normal.
>>217695723Really? Israel doesn't have centralized heating like Russia does?
>>217695623i have never encountered this
>>217695779liesThorin would do this shit all the time. Literally red in the race full winter getup all winter
>>217695775>centralized heatingI had to google what that is.
Im pretty sure mold isn't caused by cold.
we usually keep it around 23°C in my flat
Best indoor temperature is 22.5°C btw.23°C is too warm, 22°C is too chilly. 22.5°C is just right. With a slight crack in the windows to let the fresh air in.
>16-18pretty sure it gets down to 12c in my flat since I don't use heating
>>217695925endbridge hands typed this post
>>217695956So you just wear jackets indoors the whole day?
Blanket
18°C is objectively the only correct indoor temperature
>>217696076I like walking around my home with just my underwear on.
>>217695623>turning the heating onBritain is just a poor country. If it were not poor, the heating would be on automatically during the entire winter. Central heating it's called. And it would be 24 celsius inside while outside might even be -50. Too bad Britain can't afford this.
>>217695623You don't get it, covering yourself in thick, warm blanket during a cold winter day is peak comfy. There is a certain feeling of comfort with having a little warm space around your body while everything else is freezing. Japan elevates the experience even further with pic related
>>217696127This. Anything warmer than that and it's unhealthy.
>>217695623Low temperatures of 16°C might actually pause growth for some species of mold, most grow best at "room temperature". Really the problematic factor for mold is humidity, but truthfully that would get reduced by more frequent heating.>>217695925For a woman maybe. As a male with a functioning metabolism 22°C or above is where I'll start slightly sweating if I stand up, walk, etc.
>>217695852Humidity. It's related. Basically if outside is X degrees and Y% humidity, inside needs to be A degrees or you'll get condensation and thus mold.
>>217696448Heatinglet cope
>>217695623>we don’t do that in eastern europe!
>>217695623It’s the price desu, there’s a feeling to hold off using it as long as possible until it’s unbearably cold that you’re forced to use it
>>217695623Without turning on the heating my house stays at 18-19ºC throughout winter. I am stunned that eastoids living in frozen wastelands can't handle that. Just buy a comfy gown
>>217695623Molds love warmth what the fuck is this cunt talking about
>>217695623things the english hate>warmth>seasoning>friendliness>themselves>admitting that they're not the main character of earth anymore
>>217697473UK is peak civilization, America cannot compete, especially with the Orange Fool running things.
>>217697473English people are very friendly compared to the european average. They won't strike up conversations with strangers on the street like yanks do though. Also they love seasoning as long as it's indian shit like tikka massala
>>217697479>>217697510getting your money's worth out of that vpn, I see
>>217695925Show bob you butiful
>>217697510>tikka masalathat is traditional food of the British Isles though
Tikka means pieces. Chicken tikka is chicken pieces, because it's made with bite-sized pieces of chicken. There is also paneer tikka masala, for example, which is made with bite-sized pieces of paneer cheese. I know this because my name is Suresh and I am from UP
>>217695623Nothing wrong with being cold it's good for the soulThe mould point is bang on though, people need to just crack their windows open for 10 minutes twice a day
It's because lots of our housing stock is ancient drafty dogshit from the 1800s.I have a new build and keep it at 19.5 all the time.
>>217695623Poverty
>>217695623>Relatively small amounts like £100 a monthI hate firsties
>>217695623Because around 50% of houses (including mine) here were built by the Victorians who didn't believe in insulation because coal was so abundant and cheap. So we have hideously uninsulated houses coupled with a constantly damp climate. Even newbuilds seem to suffer from this but it's most likely because developers are jewed and like cutting costs rather than building good quality houses.
>>217698828*draughty
>18C is "too cold"bunch of fucking poofters
>>217695623>16-18C coldIs this a joke ?
>>217695775>Does a desert country have central heating?
>>217695772No it's not. I used to have my room that temp when I didn't want to turn on my radiator and it was way too cold
>>217695623I don't think 15 degrees Celsius at home is uncomfortable. Warm temperatures makes you sleepy.
I have warm homes, its much easier to put on something warmer than feeling hot when you are already in a tshirt
20c is perfect your home should be at 20c permanently
>>217696175>tf>tpAre u Ivan?
>>217695623I'm okay with going around in trousers and a hoodie at home but if it gets colder I'll turn on the heating
>>217695623Heating cost is absurd and these fuckers do not deserve your money when you can just wear more layers.But you should heat up the house to keep it at an average temperature above that of which mould would thrive.
>>217696110yes
>>217697479No.
>>217696175True
>>217697479>UK is peak civilization
