You mean potential danger like ice forming on the streets? Well, too bad we don’t have an easy to remember number for that… /s

So, what you’re saying is that body temperature in Fahrenheit is also a completely random number?
I’m like 99% sure it would just make the time feel longer without any benefit of consciousness. Kind of like certain drugs make everything feel like it’s slow motion, but you still don’t get superhuman reflexes from them.
Every reply I’d want to post would get me banned for encouraging suicide, so I’ll just wish you best of luck with your fight against windmills, Don Quijote. AI is here to stay and none of your whining will change that fact. So, for my own sanity, let’s hope that we won’t have to endure comments like yours for much longer. :)
Plus not everyone here is American. I’m so thankful that here in Germany these notifications only get used for catastrophic events (which is never) or the yeary test that got postponed 3 times in a row, lol.
People like you make me want that feature where you can’t see replies with more than 10 downvotes over upvotes. God, I lost so many braincells reading about your idiotic opinions and your inability to accept reality…
I assumed you meant the entire quoted paragraph including the part about the EU. Therefore my bad.
Nothing. I just live in the EU and am very happy about that fact. ¯\_༼ᴼل͜ᴼ༽_/¯
Not for me :)
Fahrenheit was invented at a hospital for identifying patients outside of the normal range…
0°F is outside the normal human temperature range? No shit!
You’re talking a bunch of bullcrap! Fahrenheit was developed by a German Scientist and he just chose two measurements that were halfway decent to reproduce. That’s all there is to it. Got nothing to do with hospitals.
Why compare it to 40°? Because I know what 40° feels like because I’ve been living in a civilized country with a civilized measurement system all my life. I can tell you that 65° is too hot, because I make my tea with 70° to 80° hot water. Therefore just before that will probably be too hot for my skin.
In the end, there is no objectively better system when it comes to day to day temperatures. But there is one when it comes to science, reliability and universality and that is Celsius.
All international science uses metric and slowly but surely the resistance amongst US universities melts away and they switch to metric as well. Give it another one or two generations and we’ll finally be rid of the outdated and arbitrary imperial system!
No, it’s not. I’m people and I don’t feel like Fahrenheit. Lower than 10°C is cold, lower than 0°C is freezing (quite literally) and warmer than 30°C is too hot. See? Easy to remember numbers. Almost as if people feel numbers they’re used to.
