  It’s like people making these memes don’t understand that intuition is learned. One is not universally more intuitive than the other

    Paid off by big nuance. We don’t need that shit here. Everything is black/white good/bad.

    I bet you prefer Kelvin.

      Not at all. I find Celsius much more intuitive but I’m not trying to argue that that is universally true.

    I think the point of the meme is that it’s a silly premise, and few people actually believe things like this

  The fuck is a Fahrenheit

  Sounds like a disease

    Fahrenheit is German for “driveability”

      And if the roads are 400% driveable, you stick to them!

  ah, 50 degrees, the perfectly average temperature

    Genuinely yes.

    Exactly

  when it’s 112F outside so you are 12% hotter than maximum

• SirSamuel@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  When everyone else is 65% warm, I am 100% warm

  Manipause is real

  Works unless it actually gets to freezing.

    Freezing is just for water not a cool guy like me

  Mf probably thinks the frequency of cesium is naturally intuitive.

  I don’t ever see people bring up the fact that Fahrenheit contains more whole numbers.

  20c -> 68f 21c -> 69.8f 22c -> 71.6f 23c -> 73.4f

  A lot of people notice the different between 68, 69, 70, 71, and 72 Fahrenheit. But Celsius has massive gaps in the measurements of these temperatures. Which is ironically very important to the average American, due to the use of thermostats and air-conditioning.

  Of course a computerized will use the decimal system to get the correct temperature.

  But conversationally, you’d have to include the decimals, which is too complicated for casual chit chat.

    Brother I can’t tell the difference between 22 and 24c, how the hell will I the difference between 69 and 70?

    source

    • Kolanaki@pawb.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I find this comment funny as fuck because I regularly get too cold at 69 and put the thermostat at 70 to be comfortable.

    1. Remove everything to the left of the video ID, the “?is=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx” part is just there for tracking.
    2. As for the claim itself, it is dumb to argue what temperature scale is better to use outside of scientific/technical applications, it is just down to personal preference, what you are used to.

      That’s why its so useful to get people used to silly scales, makes science/tech look so much more scary 😀
