add water recylcing and we spittin
“undergarment” is a bit impractical but you can put on a harness of tubes hooked up to a PC watercoooling system and carry around a big battery. some tryhard cosplayers have been doing it for at least a decade.
I helped build something like this for a race car a few years ago. The commercial version is called a Cool Suit and uses a cooler full of ice water. We used a bunch of tubing sewn onto an old pillow case, and plumbing fittings from Ace Hardware, with a 12V bilge pump. It was pretty effective.
I kinda want to build a light-weight version so I can ride my bike when it’s 100F outside.
He’s kinda spitting about A/C though. It’s like second place after penicillin
If you broaden it to include refrigeration, I’d agree
I mean, it’s the same invention
I’d say AC is a single application of the invention
This man clearly understands my ball sweat situation
We can power it with AI
Coincidentally, F1 was in Singapore this weekend, and for hot races like it, they’ve added a rule to include cooling vests that are basically exactly this.

On a tangent, what can you say about him?
Furries have been doing this shit for years
It would need batteries, it would probably need a lot of power so they would be heavy batteries, also you need to do something about the heat. A/C doesn’t really cool rooms so much as it pulls heat out of the room and pushes it outside, the heat has to go somewhere so you’d need a fan or something poking outside of your clothes for the heat to be dumped.

I wish we could spread civilization across all climates
i used to work for this guy that was, to be sure, a cranky bastard. but he had been doing physical labor his whole life.
probably his chief gripe was people who thought having an idea like this was valuable. a plan, a design, etc were valuable, but this? no.
like, just throwing out “why not a battery but it never runs out” type of shit.
it would come up as him seeing something like this and saying sardonically, “there’s no shortage of ideas in this world/from these people.”
