Update: My landlord served me a 3 day notice to cure violation or move out over keeping my window open. It's not on my lease. It's not a violation. (lemmy.ml)

So the whole place shares the same A/C? You keeping the window open while that's blasting is a huge waste of energy. I don't intend to detract from your other points, but that does seem like a genuine issue to complain about. Have you asked if they could turn the A/C down? Or is there any way to isolate the ventilation?

    "Oh well actually it's pretty reasonable for the landlord to take your money and sign documents and then afterwards surprise you with a rule you would have never agreed to saying you're never allowed to open your window"

    This is not a conversation I will entertain no matter how favorably it is framed in favor of the person breaking several laws against me.

    As I said, I don't intend to detract from your other points.

    I'm just trying to help you understand what might be behind the complaint so that a compromise could be reached. An unfortunate fact of life is that we live in a society, where it's sometimes necessary to make compromises.

    That's not what OP said at all. I had some sympathy for you up to this point. You're just a self centered asshole that doesn't care about other people. Your landlord sounds like an asshole too, but now I'm kind of on their side. I wouldn't want to deal with your bullshit either.
