You're forgetting getting into the car, where that jumps to a -5pts for a few min.

How's that $8/mo working out for you?

Not every manufacturer is shit.

At least most cars these days no longer inflict burst fire damage when you touch the metal seatbelt buckle, like they used to.

sitting down on a leather seat in a hot car is like voluntarily immersing yourself in napalm

[–] Hubi@feddit.org 11 points 2 days ago

I've got a black car with a black leather interior and the AC has recently stopped working. Life is pain.

[–] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 2 points 2 days ago

Big reason I favor cloth seats. That, and avoiding the cold shock when ass touches seat in the winter. Seat heaters are nice once they get going, but that initial cold is still there.

Hot belt buckle -10

If you open a window and repeatedly open/close a door on the other side a few times, your car will have the same temperature inside as is on the outside

If you have a hatchback, it's even easier. Lean in, start the car, roll down the windows, walk around to the hatch. I don't even bother doing more than one open and close anymore.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll have to give that a try!

No it won't, the thermal mass of the car is way higher than a few of its volumes of air, and it's still sitting in the sun too

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Dude, I'm talking about the air inside the car. Obviously you're not cooling down the whole car, but you won't have to sit in sweltering heat for multiple minutes.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The thermal mass of the metal, rubber and plastics inside the car will continuously reheat any fresh air that is introduced to the inside. That’s why car air conditioners are so powerful, way more BTUs than your average window unit of a similar size.

My guy. When you enter a car in the summer, the air is very hot and it takes a couple minutes to cool it down. When you replace the air first using the trick I mentioned, the air is much cooler, so you don't sit in hot air for a couple of minutes. I'm not saying to do this instead of AC.

How hard is it to understand this? Cooler air is cooler than hotter air. My god.

Seriously, it feels like it's gotten much worse over the last few months.

And then if you don't have a/c, you get blessed with DoT reducing to only -1hp/min instead of -1hp/sec.
