Yeah, I wasn't upset when I woke up and saw the white stuff this morning. Although I gotta clean out the garage so I can get the car in

Still snowing, close to 10cms so far. I'm guessing we'll get about 15cms before it's all said and done..
Should I be 'that' guy and use my snowblower today?

Car is a tank in the snow, if you ever need me to pull you out, just let me know

Dropped to fucking 16C last night in the house... Fucking brrrr... Nest took over at that point and kicked it back up to 17C, which was still fucking cold, so I kicked it up to 18C...
You really ought to do a DITL, most of the shit you post puts me in stitches.

We have that in Woodstock today too.. I've gotta drive to it in about an hour.
Furball has a $250 thermostat and keeps his house at igloo temperatures to save money. Like owning a BMW M3 and driving a matrix because insurance is too much!!
oh and...

Buys nest for HVAC automation, continues to "kick it up" manually multiple times a day.
automation achieved.

Ignorant people are ignorant.
It's the 'beginning' of the cold season... well, to the point that it's getting to be below 0C on average at night. As such, we're beginning to tweak what 'feels right', and what doesn't.
I don't go full automation using Nest. I use it as an overly-expensive scheduled thermostat with wifi connectivity.
So, I thought I could handle 17C at night. Nope. Fuck that. So I'm setting the minimum to be 18C from now on. If not, I'll try 19C... Move on people.
And FWIW, I got a $300CAD rebate from Nest for the thermostat

I am messing with you lol
And my initial post was about the fact that you thought you would feel right at home walking around in 16c lmao

My basement feels fucking warmer than the main floor (It's got carpet down there though... hardwood on all other floors)
I've already covered up all basement heat registers with some stolen magnets y0... and I've metal-taped up all the duct joints I could find...
I also have some 'heat register deflector' thingies in some strategic places, but they ain't doing much...
Gonna see how well I fare with 18C as the 'base' temp...

like i said before, nest is just a fancy doohickey...for what MOST peoples needs are, you can do mostly the same things with a basic programmable thermostat. a fancier prog-stat will do pretty much the same thing as a nest if you like, just have to play with the settings. of course it won't have as much 'sensing' abilities as a nest though.
my house is 22.5 with a new high-eff. furnace (variable motor) and decent prog-stat, thing purs and just puts out only enough to keep the house a perfect/steady 22.5-23c (everyone's home is different for ideal temp doe). may consider a nest in future/bigger home.
it's funny folks will go spend $$$ on a nest stat yet their furnace is a huge, old, inefficient turd.

Next year I also plan on installing some 'flaps' around the garage door to totally close out all gaps around the door panels...
will make a great addition to the bars on the car windows.
