I'll go first: r/kitty. One of the hundred grillion cat subs back on Reddit, the culture in this one was you posted a cat picture, and the only word allowed in the title or in any comments or replies was "Kitty."

Someone is using that subreddit for covert communications, I just know it. Either on the level of "if u/PM_me_your_nostrils posts an orange cat, we attack at dawn!" or there's some steganography going on with the pictures, but that subreddit was too stupid to be as active as it was.

They build our houses specifically to be inefficient at staying cool, then they sell us AC units and power to cool down our inefficient houses. They must be stopped.

I'm sure my grandpa who built my house didn't have a clue on climate efficiency lol. Nowadays in the country I live in, it's mandatory to build efficient buildings

so your "They" are an organized cabal of architects, construction workers, manufacturers of air conditioners and power plant operators all working in tandem?

[-] hperrin@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

No, more like developers who don’t really care about efficiency, and manufacturers just doing their thing. It’s less of a “conspiracy” and more of a “we build our houses wrong”.

[-] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

ah yes ok

[-] scytale@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago

I dunno man. My new build house (nothing fancy, just a basic starter SFH) is pretty great at staying cool. We can keep the thermostat at 78 all day and we’re comfy.

Not in my europe (that's because even our modern houses are at least 50 years old)
