Just went on line to check temps, (Getting Tried of Hot). Officially 43 days have been over 100f with 5 going over 110f starting the count on June 1st. Know the two thermometers I have in the backyard would add a few more but the house sits in a hole compared to official location so doesn't count. Humidity is low, good thing but early June the wild grasses still have a little green so humidity can get to be a problem, nothing really out of the norm.

Did a 110 yesterday broke a 1944 record, looks like this coming weekend might get a few more. Was playing a few days ago dropped the thermostat down to 62F (17c +/-) best I could get in the computer room was 22C although was nice in the bedroom.

Have a portable but don't want to vent it out the window as it's on the street side of the house and do to the drought last winter front yard is dead and creates an abandon look. Neighbor already caught a guy checking out the backyard a few months ago. Makes for easy entry.
Been keeping up with global warming, believer just upset with governments using it as way to line their pockets as a form to control it if it even can be, touchy subject with me.
Chiller setting on the floor waiting for the bench to have enough space for it, been rearranging & cleaning, going a little slower than I thought, finally fought my hoarder side yesterday and dumped a lot of I might need that.

self tapping screws Ales put 1 in each side of the window frame and they wont be climbing in a 3" slot or do what I did and just put it in the window when you are using it but I know the feeling about not wanting to leave it in the window I have screwed windows shut because of idiots in the places I have lived where I live isnt so bad plus I rarely leave the house but once a week

Have a quick setup for the office but the window isn't the same size, actually have all the hardware to vent it out the wall and was going to put it in when I wire some 20 amp wall sockets but hopefully the chiller will work well.

hell yea that is the way to go out the wall one thing I would do tho going out a wall like that is cover the outside part with bug screen I know the vent has it inside it but I would still put another layer over top of it bugs are fuckers and they will find a way in that shit LOL

Don't buy into that. It is a normal cycle the Earth goes through. It's been happening forever. Man contributes less than 1% to "global warming". The US gov would lead you to believe it's all our fault. It is most definitely not.
