@tomas Good stuff!

@jpa Currently 72 in our dining room. And the apps say about 67 outside.

@jpa I thought it was ’76? Anyway, I think that summer I spent weeks in a bikini on my parents’ lawn trying to get a tan. By September I was a sort of very pale yellow. I’ve never bothered since.

@jpa That’s not good! We’re lucky. The one we use most of the time doesn’t let dogs inside, but they have a couple of outside tables & there is another one where we can go inside if we want breakfast & it’s cold or wet. (Speaking of which, it’s tipping it down. Aren’t we supposed to be having a heat wave?)

@kdfrawg For that sort of skin, the thing is being able to arrange five or ten minutes in the sun before you apply all the protective stuff. Not always very convenient.

@tomas You can use https://blurbybot.monkeystew.org/ with Pushover. (Thanks to @thrrgilag.)

@kdfrawg And we’re so far north that it’s really not possible to make vit D from sunlight for most of the year. I don’t know if supplements have quite the same effect as sunshine — often they don’t, but they’re about all that we can manage here, since there isn’t any vit D to speak of in food.
