      Or things that keep you alive (organ transplants)

      But you are a danger to yourself too.

  My immune system this weekend: also, we have to eject everything from your body any way possible.

  Me: …

  My immune system: hope you didn’t eat spicy.

  99% of the time, a fever kills the bacteria then lowers. You’ll be fine, go take a nap.

  I had a fever over 38 °C for a couple weeks once. It was fine, just hot.

    You’re still hot to me <3

  Meanwhile my immune system killed my insulin producing cells and I haven’t had a fever since. I like to imagine it as a greaser with a switchblade casually leaning next to the thermostat.

  • BlackArtist@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I’m not a bright man and this is an honest question, are you a diabetic? If so that’s really interesting as my daughter is type one, I find that quite fascinating that you don’t get a fever and something for me to look out for.

    source

    • Bigoldmustard@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Yes sir I’m type 1. Didn’t even get a fever when I got Covid. I usually cruise around at about 97.7 or so. Think I hit 97.9 last time I was sick.

  The way the text and image in the specific meme are utilized in the same context as the original source of the meme is refreshing. I feel like I see this meme template used in weird ways that kinda-work-but-not-really more than other templates.

  Anyway, good quality well made meme, got me laugh

  source

  • Deebster@programming.dev ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Agreed - I think part of the humour in a meme is fitting new situations into the format and when this is ignored (or done poorly) it misses the mark, kind like as if you’d attempted a limerick but got the meter all wrong.

• doingthestuff@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I generally agree with metric superiority, but 38° is such a random temperature. Whereas if you’re over 100 you’re too hot. Fahrenheit is the superior temperature unit. Fight me.

    What’s the normal fahrenheit temperature?

    • Carlo@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      ~98.6°

      At least 12

  • superweeniehutjrs@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I agree when it comes to weather as well. 100 is too hot to be outside and 0 is way too cold to be outside. You don’t have to have decimal places on thermostats

    source

    • scytale@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      0C for freezing is better than 32F though. Then you can count by 5s and 10s in celcius for weather till you hit 30. Above that is hot. Having a range of 30 points on the thermometer is easier to gauge than something that goes across almost double the number of points.

      Fahrenheit measures how people feel, Celsius measures how water feels.
      Kelvin measures how atoms feel.

    Celsius isnt too bad imo, you know the reference points by the time you are in elem school.

    36-37 normal, 37-38 elevated, 38-39 fever, 39-40 high fever, 40-41 very high fever, 41-42 okay, stop, really, 42+ shouldve listened

  TIL the reason for high temperature

  source

  • Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Most infection can survive the minor temperature rise. The more tangible reason is that the rise in temperature signals phagocytes that it’s dinner time. Also it helps mobilizing white blood cells and increases the production of T-cells.

  You can’t survive an internal >42C.

  You can a 38c.
