alt text for four panel image

First panel: a poorly drawn figure with half-closed lids asks a smart™ thermostat "hey little man hows it goin?" Second Panel: the smart thermostat points with a large arrow at a screenshot of a graphic that reads "August Trends: Heating & cooling compared with last year", and shows zero hours more heating, 129 hours more cooling, with a small caption underneath that reads "On average, temperatures were 5 degrees warmer than August 2022" Third Panel: the poorly drawn figure with half-closed lids is shown with an unreadable smile in front of a semi-transparent image of a NASA article that reads "NASA Clocks July 2023 as Hottest Month on Record Ever Since 1880" Fourth Panel: the poorly drawn figure says "yea"

Is the liberal agenda in the room with you right now?

What are you talking about? Last summer there was all sorts of articles in colorado of thermostats displaying messages about energy savings and setting themselves to 78 degrees. Many states have these programs.

The only time my smart thermostat changes temperature without me programming it is when a demon gets in there and it’s nothing a routine exorcism can’t fix.

My power company changed mine until i unsubscribed to the "rate reduction" program and then changed my t-stat to a non-wifi model.

I was going to reply to you then I realized your 25 day old account has a score of -1853.

Have a nice day!

Cool! How do I see my score? I am new after all.

Then I guess you’re shit out of luck for seeing your score, buds.

I'll find a way to survive this set back.
