minus-square Fal ( @Fal@yiffit.net ) linkfedilinkEnglish6•7 months ago It’s so much easier when 0C is freezing and 100C is boiling. It works with cooking. Explain how this is useful in cooking 20-30C = t-shirt weather 68 to 86 is a GIGANTIC difference. 68 is cold for many many people, certainly not “t-shirt weather”. and 86 is hot, much more than “t-shirt weather”.
minus-square BiggestBulb ( @BiggestBulb@kbin.social ) linkfedilink6•7 months agoWho bundles up in 68F? It’s literally room temperature Also it’s useful in cooking because it’s an actual, useful scale. You know when it’s 90C it’s about to be boiling, just makes no sense why you gotta memorize 212F. Random number and all
minus-square Fal ( @Fal@yiffit.net ) linkfedilinkEnglish5•7 months agoNever said “bundling up”. But that 10 degree range is so big as to be useless. 68 is not in the same category as 86. You know when it’s 90C it’s about to be boiling, just makes no sense why you gotta memorize 212F. What? How often are you putting thermometers in whatever it is you’re boiling? You just heat it until it boils. It doesn’t matter what the number is.
