What temperature do you keep your thermostat at? (self.asklemmy)

Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?

I'm going out my damn mind trying to work out what I should set it at. I've been obsessively adding more and more temperature and humidity sensors around my living space to work out exactly what my idiot brain thinks is comfortable.

I don't understand why 23C/50% makes me feel like I'm in the fucking Amazon rainforest one day, but on another I feel like I've got ice forming on my damn face like Jack Nicholson at the end of The Shining.

I'm this close to buying a ZigBee rectal thermometer. Core body temperature has to be the missing piece. (I suppose any ZigBee environment sensor can be a rectal one if I bite down on something first).

(Oh and lux, I wonder if lux levels tricked my brain but that doesn't seem to correlate either!)

Make sure you get one with a flared base.
