Hmmmmmm. Do I want to close all of the windows and turn on the AC to get through today's warm temps only to open the windows tomorrow and enjoy the nice cool temps the rest of the week? 🤔

    @User47@vmst.io We've had the A/C on a few times since it got into the upper 80s in freaking February. Sadly, having the windows open also means that the extra-heavy pollen of this spring comes into the house. So, not just a "what's the head index" kind of question.

    Closed all the windows and turned on the AC. It's only going to get hotter today, so my rationale is might as well use some of the power we're generating to make it comfortable. We're +30% generation to use this period anyway. Might as well use it vs, as @billinkc@beige.party put it, sell a kWh to the utility for 2 cents only to have them charge the neighbor 14.
