Also, considering that the used power becomes heat, it is not such a waste if you already have inefficient electrical heating.

Conversely, it makes summer much worse.

perhaps.. you can easily equalize indoor temperature to outdoors, so if you're not cooling, it makes no difference.

sucks if you run an AC though :)

I don't use AC I think it's terrible to waste energy like that. I can understandan office or hospital, but home?

I'm from southern italy, it's hot, you sweat, you don't need to burn gas, coal or build infrastructure so people waste it to cool their room, this is so entitled and no wonder we're in full climate crisis.

People can't give up on anything really. It gets worse everyday and people's remedy is to make it even worse,. Nonsense.

So yes, it makes things much worse with a hot pc in the room.
