If you had to live the rest of your life in single or triple digit temperatures which would you choose? (lemmy.world)

Original question by @ephrin@sh.itjust.works

Freedom degrees. Roughly -13° or 38° if you live in the sane parts of the world.

I’d pick triple digits, mostly because I’ve lived in places that routinely hit 100° in the summer, and I hate shoveling snow.

I like the point about climate change, if you could trick the genie into agreeing that once you set up your new home you get to stay there. Then pick a spot on the cusp of frigidity. So it will gradually get into the double digits at least.

    Currently doing exactly that. My partner and I just bought a house and a few hundred acres in northern Maine, and will be moving in less than two months. Yeah, winters are cold and long, and yeah, the mosquitos and blackflies suck, but triple digit heat is really rare up there.
