A/C and anime
2015-07-08 11:48We had some great weather for e.g. July 4th, like 20 C. It finally remember it's summer though, so now we're at 28 C and 71% humidity, or dew point of 22 C, which is oppressive. I've gone from running my bedroom A/C for a few hours to cool the bedroom (and feeling guilty for not using a fan, but privacy) to running it all the time and trying to cool the apartment.
So, one low power unit vs. a whole apartment doesn't do a lot for the temperature; my living room thermometer says 27.5 C. (To be fair, maybe it is doing a lot to fight what the temp might be given the apartment thermal mass. But it's not like getting my bedroom down to 20.) But it seems to make a big difference in humidity, my cheap Ace thermometer also includes a hygrometer, which reports 50% humidity, approximately a dew point of 17, just barely uncomfortable. Since my living room also has a ceiling fan and I'm sitting at the laptop shirtless, I feel pretty good.
To be fair, I've closed off thesecond bedroom pointless materialism storage room, and my kitchen and bathroom are tiny, so it's not like I'm cooling a large 2BR. Air circulation sucks though, it's basically rooms laid out along a hallway.

Watched two episodes of Wish Upon the Pleiades. People on RPG.net liked the series a lot. "Magical girl crossed with Carl Sagan". I have yet to see why, though I do see some physics intruding -- light years, Immelmann turns, and I saw time dilation in a spoiler. Character-wise, though, it's PreCure-style moeblobs, or something.
I'd seen the original OVA. It was weird.
