Tbh it's a little funny that everyone is trying to explain mini splits to Euros as if they've never heard of them while essentially every single unit has sold out in Germany and people who didn't snag one locally are ordering them from AliExpress: www.heise.de/bestenlisten...

The knowledge gap and cultural bias against AC are both real things (though I'm pretty sure lots of Americans also heard of mini splits for the first time ever during this discourse) but in general Euros are figuring it out pretty quickly even without American help.

Not to get all stentorian, but both my grandfathers served in WW2, and one of them died from its lingering sting decades later (chronic injuries). An ocean of fucking blood shed, the highest price imaginable paid to create a world where this shit didn’t happen, undone for *nothing*. Fuck you!

You are up to date.
