If you rewatch scrubs make sure to torrent some seasons with the original music. Anything up on a streaming service won’t have it because they didn’t buy good enough music rights to include streaming and all the songs Re replaced with stuff that’s not nearly as good/fitting. Makes a huge difference in the show IMO.
Actually yes - it’s definitely less effective when the humidity is super high, but usually on those days the temperature is also lower. Still works if the fan is strong enough.
This is good advice to follow even if you do have air conditioning. Keeping the heat out makes the AC work less. Maybe invest a nice set of thermal curtains.
Midwestern US here, it’s been getting hotter and some years our AC just stopped working. I keep my fan turned on almost 24/7 as I can’t breathe well without it on and recently I got blackout curtains with angled curtain rods. Keeps my room much cooler than a blanket over the window
I haven’t seen anyone recommend this yet but for your body itself, try using peppermint castille soap. There’s a brand here called dr.bronners, not sure if you have it in your area but you might be able to find it on Amazon. Really helps keep skin cool, sometimes I’ll just bathe my feet in it if I’ve already showered and just need to cool off a bit.
Also lose the socks and general clothing if you’re at home. A wet rag over a fan may help as well. Drink lots and lots of water. Horror movies also sometimes give me a bit of a chill! Good luck!
Not sure how relevant will this be to your question but the admin of the instance I’m on is quite transparent with the server performance etc. and perhaps it’ll provide some insight. Also quite interesting was the fact that storage itself is cheap but the bandwidth fees are not (from the comments).
I still haven’t figured out how to correctly link to posts on other instances so I’m pasting a direct link hoping a friendly bot finds it and updates it: lemmy.zip/post/509553
This is how I got through my youth when I had to work in the sun (wet bandana) Anything that gets you wet with some air flow. It’s like sweating without to electrolyte hit. Works better in low humidity, of course.
I’m lucky now because I have AC and can just stay indoors through the hot part of the day. I still make the house a dark cave after trapping the coolest air I can from overnight.
Mine’ll have to be Doctor Who and The Good Place. The Good Place is just a nice, comfy comedy show with a really good message and Doctor Who is my comfort show.
If I have the time and desire to sit in front of the TV (which is pretty rare): X-Files, Kids in the Hall, Justified, Doctor Who, TNG/DS9/VOY, Good Omens, and Arrested Development. I’m sure there are others but they’re not coming to mind right now.
I live in Florida and while this summer has been unusually hot.. it's not that bad. You just get used to the heat. Also make sure you have good A/C in your home & car lol
