Question about Russian Federation
How do you deal with heavy snow/extreme cold on a daily basis? There's no snow in Portugal, so I am very curious about this topic.

- Country or region Russian Federation
I live in Siberia. There is 9 months of winter here. Average temperature is about 20 below 0. There is central heating, central plumbing with hot water. There is cold only outside here)) Sometimes it's hard to start the car. Sometimes temperature falls to 55 below, it this case can be some difficulties with the work of machinery and equipment, the supply of food. Wewarm cars, start them work and live further. There is lack of pleasure to walk outside sometimes, but there are a lot of shopping and entertainment centers.

That's simple. In order to withstand extreme cold you have to dress warmly.
A cap, a scarf and gloves are obligatory. The more layers of clothes - the better.
However, these rules cannot be applied to teens: they usually ignore caps, they wear jeans/trousers with open ankles and they don't give a shit despite the fact it is -25C outside.

We just do 🤷♂️ You see, there *is* snow in Russia, so we don't see anything peculiar about that.

@joan_may а вы щё, русскую не размовляете? В чём смысл уточнения, которое не касается основного вопроса… В смысле, зачем двум русскоязычным говорить на английском? Я понял бы типа "дать возможность всё понять автору вопроса", но этот вопрос его даже не касается.
Что касается непосредственно вопроса — не все эмодзи являются смайликами.

@joan_may в русском "смайлики" обобщает все эти цветные картинки, а в английском "грустный улыбака" выглядит очень странно.

@joan_may в данном вопросе это не имеет значения. Просто если говоришь по-английски, нужно учитывать лингво-культурный контекст. По-английски эти цветные картинки называются "эмодзи", а не "смайлики", безотносительно ваших предпочтений.

I live in Central Russia. As it seems to me, recently winters become warmer and warmer, to my regret. Therefore, to cope with the cold is not difficult.
