Soak the tarmac. Use evaporative cooling.

It takes a crap load of water and you have to keep applying it. If you don't have the water supply and the trucks/sprayers for it it's basically impossible.

They should be able to run rollers over it like, literally right now to smooth it back out. Once the high has been hit for the day, send out the steamrollers so it's smooth when it cools down again at night.

My apartment complex doesn't have AC at all. But we do have in floor hot water heat and 2x6 construction packed full of insulation. My winter utility bill is $30~.

My AC unit cost $12 to run last month. Worth it.

Here in Edinburgh the temperature hit 87, tomorrow's aiming for 88. Then it's back down to 71 on Wednesday.

Thankfully my room doesn't have air condition, has two walls that get sun all day, and the window only opens literally three inches.

Further south, though, it's insane. London's high tomorrow is 102, up from 100 today.

It's a ponzi scheme, op. The price will continue to drop as the bagholder supply runs dry and the exchanges run out of money. Don't become a bagholder.

There's resistance to keep number where it is, and when it slips below, set a new "floor" price. However, there's a lot of trickery afoot behind the scenes so stick to traditional investments or I-bonds right now since inflation is so loving high.

E: at this point, if you buy in when exchanges are failing, I'll sell you one of my crusty coins. No, it's not digital, it's a dirty nickel I dig out of my couch. Only $500, get in now before I stick it to one of Elon's rocketships to the moon.

the answer to "is bitcoin crashing" is, unfortunately, not going to be "yes" until the price is actually at or near zero. frequent ups and downs are basically a feature from its high volatility. don't get your hopes up

that said all the exchanges taking a huge poo poo are hopefully helping

I loving hate Central PA and want to move back to NH or Maine soon now. Apparently a customer at my husbands work filed an official complaint because he had a satanic temple sticker on his car. And complained that he wasn't a straight Christian man.
Which makes me want to arm up and wait for one of these fudds to follow him home someday, but I'm probably being paranoid. Not really a current event, sorry.

To me this sounds like your ticket to an early retirement. Hire a civil rights lawyer and sue the employer and employee into oblivion.

I clicked through a few of them, I didn't see anything particularly gruesome, but exercise caution. I almost gave myself an aneurism watching what I did though. There is an amazing lack of initiative with those cops and some very questionable choices for "cover". (One dude was using a thin metal pole as "cover")
