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.

      Ah, but you also have to consider the amount of heating and cooling you’re doing. Assuming that you’re comfortable at a normal room temperature of 70F, that’s 30 degrees of cooling from triple digits, but 61 degrees from single. And, you’re also going to want to take into consideration the heat of fusion of water as you are melting whatever ice comes which raises the amount of energy required even more.
