guess you could say its a hot market!

maybe someone will strike while the irons hot and buy your house.

This may cause some heated debate on housing prices though.

Just have to get an air conditioner … for your air conditioner. Then just never leave the house.

Wait… what’s the allure of living in the desert that would make me want to do that in the first place??

Well, for one thing, that’s where you find the spice, and the spice is valuable. You just have to be wary of wormsign and your moisture levels.

Horizon: Zero Dawn has lore alluding to an event called the “Hot Zone Crisis” which starts, in part, due to the American Southwest reaching extreme temperatures as a first step. It’s interesting to me how some elements of that game’s “past” (essentially our present a few decades from now) seem like they could actually end up playing out in reality.

Let’s just hope the AI trend doesn’t spread to machines that can build themselves.

Whoever wrote that doesn’t understand how temperature works. lol

It doesn’t just “keep getting hotter.”

Whoever wrote that is in the same group of people that, when you tell them we’re in grave danger if the average global temperature goes up 3 deg C, they say “oh… pfft that’s not so bad.”

Am I supposed to do the whole " we’re technically in an ice age!" line or is someone else doing it?

well they say climate change is a hoax by the international bankers

Whatever “expert” came up with that is a sensationalist liar. Probably paid good money to say that.

I’ve never understood why anyone would want to live in a place where it gets unbearably hot and water is scarce.

Water is not scarce here. I turn on my tap and it comes just like anywhere else.

Yeah but have you read about the water-rights battle in the Southwest?
