My ACDC is set too high, way to hell.
A European (or anyone else outside of the US) can't set their AC to 70...
They could, If they weren’t cowards
My personal reaction was also that no one here has AC as someone from the nordic.
That would be a cold sauna
70C is pretty hot.
For a sauna, 80-100C is usually preferrable. 120C is nice in a wood heated sauna, you don't even need to throw water at this point. It's nice & cozy :)
You may be taking this too literally.
I mean, without looking it up, I don't have a clue how hot 70 is
I think the joke is they set it to 70C, which is very hot
What even is 70?
70 c = 158 f
70 f = 21 c
70 k = -203 c, -333 f
You forgot rankine :(
-459.67F or -273.15C
Laporfic? :-P
I’m 100% in on the metric system, but Fahrenheit is the best way to measure weather.
0F is my freezing point 100F is my boiling point
Fuck freezing/boiling of water!
Celsius is great for science (except space science) or cooking, but weather should be based on humans.
-15f is my "freezing point" and anything above 75 is uncomfortably hot. See what you mean?
You only feel this way because you're accustomed to Fahrenheit. I grew up with Celsius, and to me that feels like the perfect temperature scale. Fahrenheit feels weird and arbitrary to me.
It kind of is, but a good way to think of it is the percentage of hot it is. 70F is like 20C, which is a nice temperature. 0F is about -17C, which is very not hot, one might even say zero percent hot. 110F is about 43C, which is very hot, one might even say 110% hot
I grew up with Fahrenheit, but switched my weather app to use Celsius for a while, and I've internalized it pretty well. It works fine. The "human experience" angle doesn't work anyway because that experience is very locale-dependent.
0f is based on brine, but it just happens to correlate with it being fucking freezing for weather
Fahrenheit isn't "based on humans." I can subjectively claim that 0°F is as unreasonably cold as 100°F is unreasonably warm; 30-90 is the only acceptable range. That's arguably more arbitrary than 0-30.
100, at the time the units were invented, was considered to be human body temperature
That would have made medical sense, making Fahrenheit actually useful for certain applications, and then they fucked it up.
Fahrenheit is just more intuitive to me, but that alone makes me prefer Celsius
and then you add all of the other benefits on top. We really need to get on the metric system.
And still isn't a comfortable external temperature.
It's just what you grew up with. I'll stick with Celsius
What if you are a European/American DnD player?
You exist in a triple point equilibrium. Constantly flipping between ideal temperature, being cooked alive, and becoming bulletproof. Depending on how quickly you alternate between states it could be feasible to stay alive despite being European.
