If anything we need even more lunatic units of measure based on stuff like average length of old kingdom bread loaves

F is best for temperature because at both extremes of the neat 0-100 degree mark is where you start to want to die, so it's just a percentage scale in most people's minds. sorry that this makes more sense than celcius

We use units of Freedom here for our temperature in freedomland, and we are doing our best to export molecules of freedom to the rest of the world which will in turn make that freedom number go up up up

celcius is extremely good if you dont care about knowing the actual temperature within the 5+ real degrees that they cram into each of their fake ones.

Tbh I cant really tell the difference between one degree Celsius and the next anyway. Why do you need so many Fahrenheits?

Deformed Church posted:Tbh I cant really tell the difference between one degree Celsius and the next anyway. Why do you need so many Fahrenheits? Normal temperature range for Celsius is -17 to 38 degrees, which is 0F to 100F. As you can see Celsius has a range of 55 units while Fahrenheit has a range of 100 units. It is therefore far easier and more satisfying to describe number go up using Fahrenheit. Thus, we must conclude that Fahrenheit is the superior unit of measurement.

lol my AC unit is about 40 years old and choking on this heat- barely cooling the place while costing $100-$150/mo to run- so I just have it shut off and am using a series of fans combined with sweat to not keel over as the heat index jumps around between 90-110 F why yes, I rent, from a management company headed by a man who even pro-landlord people call, 'a sociopath'

fahrenheit is loving dumb. 0* being the freezing point is v nice because I want to look at a thermometer, see 0 or below and realize poo poo might be frozen outside. what kind of idiot thinks "hmm yes let me remember the number 32 that's a nice number that I want to think about for the rest of my life"? oh yeah, people who love fahrenheit

jsut get a thermometer that shows F and C on the left and right sides of the tube for the best of both worlds, you can look at 0 C or 100 F depending on whats going on

gently caress You And Diebold posted:You live in trump tower?? lol I rent a 1bdr, 500 sq ft condo previously inhabited by an old lady who had to go to assisted living; her family hired the management company to handle renting it out. p sure I'm gettin kicked out once she's gone, which is a mixed deal: it's cheap for the area so I don't need a roommate, they don't give a poo poo about how I've nailed a bunch of lights and stuff to the lil 40 sq ft patio, they generally leave me alone and don't come knocking for every lil thing- but it's also about 2mi from anything worth walking to and my landlord is the second-worst I've had out of like twelve the saving grace is that it's a 1st floor on a hill, so it's half underground and stays under 85 F even if it's boiling outside Addamere posted:rip his balls off my trophy room is full and I cant afford more square feet
