I never understood the american argument for why farenheit is better ”Because it’s aligned with how humans perceive heat”Ok, so people say 0F is 0% hot, and 100F is 100% heat ”relative to human experience or whatever”. But isn’t this scale relative between people?A guy who lives in Saudi Arabia will think 122F(50C) is a ”normal” hot day in summer, and 50F(10C) to be a frigid winter day, meanwhile a guy from Norway feels like 23F(-5C) is a pleasant spring day, and 68F(20C) is a heatwaveHow do you reconcile both of these experiences being valid perceptions of heat, but the system doesn’t give any absolute scale for either of these people
There's no reason for it. We haven't changed because our boomers are lazy. Also we learn celsius/metric in school and then never use it again.
>relative to human experience or whateve>Saudi Arabiagenuinely, who do you think you're dealing with here. We're AMERICA. We dont give a FUCK what mohammed thinks bro
best way to measure heat is to simply say "it's hot" when it feels hot and "it's cold" when it's coldnumbers are for nerds
Farenheit feels excessively finegrained. I already don't care if it's 12 or 13 degrees celsius due to small margin of error. But I care even less about the difference of 53 and 54 farenheit.Meaningful differences come in increments of around 4 celsius degrees, like between -20c and +20c every 4-degree step represents one addition/removal of clothing to be comfortable outside. For smaller steps the difference is practically negligible.

>>221898342You could say the same thing about centimeters. Why would you care about whether you have a 15cm penis or a 16cm penis? I can tell apart a 5-inch dick from a 4-incher and a 6-incher, but I suck at eyeballing differences in terms of centimeters. As a matter of fact, if somebody tells me he's got a 3-inch dick, I know it's a micropenis, but if somebody tells me he's got an 8cm penis, it just doesn't ellicit the same reaction to me.
>>221898103celsius is better as its at the right zone of granularity that you can narrowly perceive a one degree difference in C but not in Fhowever inches and feet are much better human-level measurements as those are more easily observable levels of granularity than centimeters and meters and are more naturally intuitive since an inch is about the width of a finger and a foot is about the length of a foot. in fact they're so obviously superior for non-scientific/non-mathematical use there's no intelligent argument to the contrary
>>221898450Yeah for same reason I mentally think in imperial units when measuring things by eye. Even some engineering fields still use the inch here officially, it just has higher practicality in day to day than cm.
>>221898342at 20c, nobody wears clothes in finland
The only real difference the measurement schemes will make if you have objects following discrete dimensions (As in 1mm, 2mm, 3mm and so on)And people argue like "Yeah but its waaaay better in this system" But in reality the differences are so small that you can easily find two values from the other system to interpolate from. Its exclusively dumbass blue collar retards saying this.I absolutely hate american cooking videos though
>>221899072No it doesnt
>>221899130Two cups of flour, sirFour ounces of milkNo no no, FLUID ounces, sir
>>221899298Americans themselves don’t even know the difference between ounces and fluid ounces. They measure butter by volume for some godforsaken reason. I’ve also seen cursed shit like>3 cups of potatoesnigga, you want me to puree raw potatoes or what?
>>221898103my argument is that I don't give a fuck. keep seething.
>>221898103Like most things people feel strongly about, it's a post-hoc rationalisation for why the way they've always done things is better than any of the other ways things could be done. It ultimately doesn't matter.
>>221898498Shut up fat.
Oh look! It's the "temperature is granular" guy.>>221898498
>>221899118we do wear underwear, THOUGH
>>221898103Who gives a fuck? Every culture should use their own measurements why are you a fucking globalist? Bring back pre-metric measures.
