Literally what the fuck is up with Euros and their aversion to air conditioning? Can one of you explain to me why you are so opposed to something that improves quality of life so much? The benefit to cost ratio is massive. You have electric utility, water utility, heating, lighting, and most other modern comforts but NO AIR CONDITIONING? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU.
>>84922183Renewable energy isn't free and also you can't just slap an ac unit on the outside wall of a building. Writing this from 35 C outside with no ac :(
>>84922222Not only is renewable energy free, even non-renewable energy tends to be free during the summer on spot markets due to solar overproduction. In fact, at some times of the day the producers might pay YOU to take energy from the grid. Only that you don't have spot pricing because you're a peasant.
>>84922183You do realise that this kind of short sighted selfishness is why we are having a climate catastrophe? Right?
>>84922183Its because their politicians are absolute dirt bags against their own people. This stems from the British monarchy, which still controls more than people think, all over the world.
>>84922183We're not really averse to it we are just broke
>>84922183Most of them can't afford it and or live in places where a window a/c doesn't fit because they have those weird windows that pivot, so their only option is to cope and seethe
>>84922241If only you knew that a decentralized energy production comes with an immense infrastructure cost. They don't and will never give you electricity for free at any point.
>>84922285Europe typically uses minisplit ACs that can be mounted just about anywhere. Poorfags may use portable ACs. The usual burger window ACs are very rare.
>>84922222Even with higher energy costs it is well worth it. Again, it is a massive improvement to quality of life. >you cant just slap an ac unit on the outside wall of a buildingGet a window unit. They are a few hundred USD and last years.>>84922263There is no climate catastrophe dumb fuck. Out of all the reasons to not have AC, the idea that its somehow bad for the environment is by far the most retarded reason of them all.
>>84922294I know literally everything about the economics of energy production as far as any small/residential consumer is concerned, thankyouberrymuch.
they are just poor
>>84922312>Get a window unit. They are a few hundred USD and last years.There are only huge portable ones that are not efficient, this is the closest one you can get to these window ACs. And it's almost sold out, cheapest offer 1500 euro. For something where you have to have your windows opened. A proper AC will require so much more money and effort, thats why no one has one.
>>84922373>so much moreA cheap minisplit is like 600 euros. At most 200 more for tools and a vacuum pump and you can install it yourself. 1000-1500 including install if you are too stupid to /diy/.
