grepehu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks agoThat’s a really weird one, every apartment I’ve lived at the air conditioner only displays the temperature in integers and I’m 100% sure of that because every each one of them had arrows to change the temperature up or down in one unit.

Meh I’m about 50/50 4 air conditioners in. Half degrees has not been all that uncommon. I don’t get the handwaving of legitimate points of comtention to make Celsius seem more perfect. Everything has its flaws. It’s completely fine to admit that.

That’s not the point, I haven’t said Celsius is perfect not a single time here, I’m just calling your BS because you said decimals matter for us which is not true because no one that lives in a country that uses Celsius knows the difference a decimal makes, I honestly think we just really feel some difference at like 2 degrees in variation, far from decimals.

Decimals don’t matter for you and you are pushing that to everyone as a way to delegitimize my point.
I use Celsius and they matter to me. I can and do notice a difference between setting my thermostat to 21.5 vs 22 vs 22.5. You don’t whatever.
I said I was using Celsius but because I had a complaint you decided I was outside of your accepted user group and my statement was BS.
Its bullshit.

Yeah your point is BS, because you really don’t need decimals to do most things. Good for you that you can notice decimals in difference but that’s not a normal thing, most weather forecast only say the integer, most air conditioners (all as far as I’ve seen) tell the temperature in integer, if you talk to someone else about the weather we also talk in integer.
YOU should stop pushing the idea that decimals are important into everyone else as if they are true for everyone, because they’re not.
