But if every person thought like that, we’d get a 3rd party candidate elected
If the 300m people lived in the same area and you got a true random sample.
Sunsets at 9:09 today in Michigan
Sunsets at 8:04 today in California
Sunsets at 8:34 today in North Carolina
Sunsets at 7:57 today in Alabama
Sunsets at 7:38 today in Arizona (They are on standard time)
Sunsets at 7:13 today in Hawaii
Sunsets at 11:36 today in Alaska
Someone in Arizona might want the sun to set at 7:38. It’s blazing hot all day.
Someone in Michigan might be fine with sunsetting at 8:08 with standard time.
Someone in Alabama might not want the sun to set at 6:57.
Someone in Hawaii probably doesn’t want the sun to set at 6:13.
Even if you split up the 1000 people to equally represent all states, that’s only 20 people per state.
You could lift the potato without setting off the trap pretty easily
Ahh, yes, 1002 people is a large sample size, like .003% of the population.
Your article is also about switching. Doesn’t say anything about if people would prefer to stay on DST or standard time.
“Summer time” is DST
If you removed DST, we would always be on standard time.
What you are saying is make DST permanent, not removing DST
Why do you want the sun to set early?
I’d rather have an extra hour of sun after work than an hour of sun before work
I think most people enjoy DST. Most complain when it’s dark at 5 pm.
Even a couple of dollars more for a contractor is a lot when a thermostatic valve doesn’t add any value.
You can get inexpensive tankless water heaters.
You want to open the hot valve 100% until the hot water comes because it conserves water. You want to clear out the hot water line as fast as possible. Turning it to 70% just takes longer to heat up and you’re just dumping cold water out for no reason.

I remembered it wrong. He wasn’t doing laundry. He was pouring concrete into the guy’s washing machine.
No idea what that guy did to deserve a messed up washing machine.
“You ever use the gentle cycle?” Absolutely hilarious /s
You have to have grown up with it and gained an unconditional love of the characters. You don’t care that they are an asshole to a character you don’t like.
Look at Kramer he is so stupid he can’t figure out a washing machine! Lol he’s going to try to pour a bunch of detergent in next and act like he’s drunk because he’s that stupid! He’s so funny!
Edit: Remembered it wrong. He was pouring concrete into the washing machine. Classic asshole

There are the “I like to keep my house at 66°F because I like to wear a hoodie or use a blanket”. They are going to say that 75°F is warm or even hot for a room.
If an average person sat naked in a 75°F room they would be happy.
68°F or 20°C is cold for me. Even 70°F or 21°C. I keep my house around 72° to 74°F and bump it up or down a degree. Coming in from mowing the yard, bump it down, sitting all day watching movies, keep it the same, cold winter day, bump it up.
Older people keep their houses at 78°+
100°F doesn’t mean “not fit for human habitation”
Anything above body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C) you are slowly cooking yourself. That’s why 100°F is important.
Might be popular in new expensive builds
Standard house isn’t going to have them
Really I don’t see much of a point for one. Crappy house with crappy plumbing, but they aren’t going to buy a fancy valve to make the problems somewhat manageable.
Tankless water heaters are becoming more popular. The thermostatic valve would save you from turning the standard water mixer a little hotter when you run out of room temp cold water in the lines and the cold water from outside reaches the shower. Otherwise, you are always being supplied constant temperature water.
I feel like most people that would be willing to pay extra for a thermostatic valve would pay extra to have an oversized water heater, or even tankless.
Yeah, they can weigh up to 2000lbs with a king-size bed. A king-size bed is 6,080 sq in.
A fridge can weigh 300lb being 36"×30". 1,152 sq in.
Fridge is .26 pounds per sq inch. A water bed is .33 pounds per sq inch.
So while heavy the weight is distributed basically like a fridge. This is assuming an empty fridge.
As for durability, a quality waterbed mattress is thick. You aren’t going to pop it or cut it without deliberately trying to.
Even if you took a knife and stabbed it from the top, it’s not going to leak until you put weight on it.
50°F is the point where you need clothes to survive. If you sat naked in a 50°F room you run the risk of your body not being able to generate enough heat and you’ll slowly die.
~75°F is room temperature. It’s in the middle on the warm side.
70°F is a cool room, 80°F is a warm room.
Whenever I think of Celsius I see it as 0° to 40° with 20° being room temperature. I hear 30°C and think halfway between 70 and 100 so I know it’s around 85°F and I know how 85°F feels.
But like 35°C. That’s 3/4 of the way from 20°C to 40°F. 100°F-70°F is 30°. 3/4 of 30 is 22.5. So 35° must be close to 70°+22.5° or ~93°F. I know how 93°F feels.
I can see how celcius is easier if you learned it as a child. 35°C would just be 35°C. But trying to quickly wrap your head around it is difficult unless you just know it. I’m sure if I said 93°F you could tell me that that is pretty hot.
You never deal with 0°C/32°F or 100°C/212°F unless you’re in a science lab.
They are nice numbers in celcius, but for real-world applications, it’s almost meaningless.
When I boil water on the stove, I don’t check if it hits 100°C. When I freeze water in the freezer, I don’t check if it hits 0°C.
Everyone can get by without knowing the exact degrees.
This is pure water at standard pressure. Higher or lower altitudes will change it, and if your water has minerals or impurities in it, it will also change it. It’s pretty arbitrary.
Water on roads can freeze before it hits 0°C outside. It can even snow above 0°C.
Fahrenheit is a very simple scale other than those two things. <0° extremely cold, >100° extremely hot for air temperature. Freezers are 0°F and Saunas are 200°F. Hot tubs are 100°F. You bake cookies at 325° to 375°, pizza is cooked at 600° to 800°F. You’ll find a lot of 25° increments in cooking.
Fahrenheit isn’t really a part of the US customary units.
Knowing both Fahrenheit and Celsius, I do think Fahrenheit is simpler for real-world applications. For science they are just numbers on a scale. Converting is the only real problem.
I always found it interesting that Rolls-Royce had to let vibrations and noise in the back of their cars. Moving in a car without identifiers really trips with the brain.
