Better yet, turn your TV off.


But make sure the music is uber loud.

So you're saying there's a chance people will stop moving here from Louisiana and California?

I've been keeping my curtains closed the last few days. Seems cooler in my house. Will that not do the trick?

I can't recall. The narrator was an attractive woman with somewhat short hair who was very animated as she spoke.

—-wrong. Just the areas that go the way of Austin. Like Dallas.

Don't trust that ERCOT dashboard. They're doing rolling blackouts-- what other reason would my power be out from 10:15 pm last night, to 1:30 am this morning?

Three hours and fifteen minutes of time for the house to heat up to 87° inside... and it's by no means the hottest time of the day. This heat is making me crazy

I just looked up some specs. Samsung's latest 75" TV's pull about 230 Watts according to their spec sheet. Most people aren't going to be using 75".

More people will be in the 55" range. According to the spec sheet, Samsung's 55" pulls 140W.

That's nothing and turning down brightness isn't going to do shite. You might save 10W or something.
