This is why you get a whole house fan… if you are able to have one installed.
So a fan instead of a roof?

No.
Cooling with a Whole House Fan
A whole-house fan, in combination with other cooling systems, can meet all or most of your home cooling needs year round.

Central Europe here. We had like two weeks of scorching hell and then it has been raining ever since.
Northern Europe here, same.

I was being ironic.
Seems clever and simple enough, the concept has existed for years.

How bout keep it on for another little bit til it gets cool enough for uou then shut it off? And by cool enough for you I mean about 5 degrees F warmer than you'd ideally want it

A new AC here costs 400$...
For a central air split system?
Cause that’s what most American homes have.

I used to live in a small apartment building without individual mailboxes so we could just see each other's power bills. The first time they arrived, I was dumbfounded by how much everyone else paid. I'm not gonna give exact numbers because it means nothing unless you live in the same country and state but it's enough to say their bills was literally 10 to 15 times what mine was. It was a very warm place so I just assumed they ran the AC all the time until we went through a particularly hot summer and I decided to just eat the bill and ran it 24/7 as well. My bill was a little over 3 times the usual amount. WHAT THE HELL WAS EVERYONE ELSE IN THE BUILDING DOING?!
If they were doing what my relative was doing - running the AC in one area yet leaving the windows open in another. Complained to me about the huge electric bill…I didn’t see the point in trying to explain why their behavior was driving that bill.

No, I don't have that sort of fancy nonsense

You know how there are people who like being really warm? Just try to imagine what they feel like. It isn't your shitty apartment. You're in a tropical location, on the beach. This is amazing. It's not hot, it's summery warmth! People would pay for this probably! Maybe you'll eventually get into it and save a bunch of money?

Where the hell is the rain, I'm fucking dying being outside all day during all this sunshine
-
During the day go out
During night use an air conditioned sleep pod (cheaper than cooling the whole home)
During the day go out
You mean work?

Well I said northern but it's southern north lol, Netherlands, dunno where you are. Literally rained an hour ago, it drenched our tent that was out to dry while we prepare for camping trip this weekend. Last couple of weeks it's definitely been touch and go on the regular.

Just so you can turn it on again in 15 minutes once it gets unbearable again.

Really? Them bills didn't come in named envelopes?
Nope. Mexico doesn't do that. They don't even come folded. They now offer an option to get them through email, though.

Alternatively, you can always imagine what it's like not to have an AC

My AC gave up the ghost 5 weeks ago.
I'm watching Happy Gilmore 2 as the crew installs a new one.
I had mine replaced a month ago... damned glad I did. It absolutely wouldn't have survived.

I almost didn't survive. The human brain isn't designed to sleep with temps over 90F.

Southern Finland. We've had a few short drizzles but most days there has been sunshine all day erryday. And it's just too much when you're outside all day

So jealous. We get torrential downpour or so hot and humid it is dangerous to be outside during daylight hours.
