Can We Get A Celsius Hate Thread Going?

>worse in every way than Fahrenheit for everyday use.

what a retard.

0ºC: freezing of water
100ºC: vaporization of water

100ºF: a person suffering from a light fever

>>9137518
>worse in every way than Fahrenheit for everyday use
I strongly disagree.

>>9137552
>really cold
What a useful reference point.

>>9137588
That's his point you retard

>>9137585
Because you're biased.

One system has a physiological range of approximately 0-100, the other has a range of approximately -20-40. It's quite obvious which is better suited for everyday use.

>>9137633
>physiological range of approximately 0-100
Explain.

>>9137633
>>9137596
I have to say I agree. 0 being "really cold outside" and 100 being "really hot outside" is more useful than the freezing point of water, which would only be used for snow, and the boiling point of water, which would be used for cooking maybe.

>>9137643
Our bodies have evolved to function within that approximate temperature range? What exactly are you looking for?

>>9137659
So if I go outside when it's 0F, I will survive because my body has evolved to do so?

>>9137518
Everything is defined by Kelvin anyway, you're not even using a different system just an offset.

Celsius makes more sense in a formal/scientific context, in my opinion. Fahrenheit is obviously superior when it comes to real world practicality since the 0-100 range is such a perfect match relative to the humans perception of temperature.

>0 cold as fuck
>100 hot as balls

Versus the autistic Celsius adaptation which is like -20 to 40. Shit is retarded

>>9137675
>Fahrenheit is obviously superior when it comes to real world practicality
It seems this isn't "obvious" to anyone outside of the US.
In fact, I find celsius much more useful for real world practical applications.

>>9137660
Maybe not you, but most humans would become cold and find shelter - thus surviving.

>>9137695
what the FUCK are you talking about?

>>9137695
Would they not do the same at -10F? Or -20F? Or -30F? What's special about 0F?

>>9137709
Nothing is special about 0ºF besides the point that most humans live in areas within the range of 0-100 ºF. Our normal operating range, if you will.

>>9137733
what's so special about the number 0 and 100?

>>9137733
Most humans also live in climates between 0 and 50C.

>>9137746
A 0 to 100 scale is intuitive and sufficiently divisible.
73 is better in a human life context than 22.778.

Celsius is good scientifically. Kelvin is good if you need more science than just a bit.

>>9137695
Who the fuck lives in a 0 degrees Fahrenheit environment? Fahrenheit is annoying. I don't care if 32 F is when shit starts freezing. That's the most annoying arbitrary thing. 0-40 is a normal range to work with. Fuck off. I live in the states, and Fahrenheit is retarded.

Fahrenheit is for humans.

>>9137765
>73 is better in a human life context than 22.778
Who the fuck would think of reading it as 22.778? It's close enough to 23 in the human life context to not matter. Celsius at least has the utility of having 0 be set at the freezing point of water at ground level, and 100 at the boiling point, which is the only actual difference in usefulness between the two.

>>9137645
It's only more useful because you're used to it. For me fahrenheit doesn't say shit, and I know that -20C is a typical cold winter day here, and +20C is a typical warm summer day here.

>Fahrenheit proposed his temperature scale in 1724, basing it on two reference points of temperature. In his initial scale (which is not the final Fahrenheit scale), the zero point is determined by placing the thermometer in a mixture of ice, water, and ammonium chloride (salis Armoniaci).[6] This is a frigorific mixture which stabilizes its temperature automatically: that stable temperature was defined as 0 °F (−17.78 °C).

>>9138173
Celsius and Kelvin are literally the same thing. Celsius just puts an cap, based on the states of water to bring the measurment into a easily differentiable scope. Meanwhile, farenshit has no meaning whatsoever, since it's based on nothing. It exist soley because low-IQ, HFCS-fueled ameritrash props it up, just like the retarded imperial system.

>>9139110
Hey those Vietnamese farmers were fucking badasses.

>>9139228

Celcius isn't "base 10", whatever the fuck you even mean by that. And Fahrenheit IS better for everyday use, since it has more degrees for a given range of temperature, allowing for more precise temperature values without the need for decimals.

>>9139233
if precision concerns you so much then why are you still using inches and miles instead of centimeters and kilometers?

>>9139233
>>9139228
They're both base 10 you fucking retards

>>9139242

What do you think "base 10" means?

>>9139265
"Base 10 refers to the numbering system in common use that uses decimal numbers. Base 10 is also called the decimal system or denary system. In base 10, each digit in a position of a number can have an integer value ranging from 0 to 9 (10 possibilities)."

>>9137521
Fahrenheit is literally designed for ease of use for human temperature ranges.. 99% of earth's livable climate temps fit.

>>9140248

there is nothing easy about 0ºF and 100ºF being some arbitrary temperature based on muh feelz

0ºC and 100ºC are the freezing and boiling points of water, you know, the very basis of life

it does not get any easier than for human temperature ranges

>>9140289
Just because we made a scaled temperature range just for water does not make it easier to use than Fahrenheit.

>>9137518
>Worse in every way that Kelvin for scientific purposes,
It's still better than Fahrenheit, because converting to Kelvin is easier from Celsius, and because delta T-s are the same in Kelvin and in degrees Celsius.
>worse in every way than Fahrenheit for everyday use
You fell for the "Fahrenheit is more intuitive meme". Pro tip: it's not, you're just not used to it.

>>9139233
1 °C precision is enough for everyday contexts, and if you want the extra precision so fucking much, just use 0.5 °C increments, which don't make dealing with the numbers any harder.

>>9137645
>>9137675
I can't fucking fathom how you dumb shits can justify 0 °F being the freezing point of some random salt-water mixture. It's absolutely useless in everyday contexts, because knowing it's below the freezing point of water outside tells me a million times more useful information than knowing that it's really cold.

Celsius scale:
>the temperature begins with a minus sign, I guess I can expect ice and maybe snow
Fahrenheit scale:
>It's 26 °F outside, which is... less than 32 to, so I guess I'll see some ice and maybe some snow outside

To make it clear, I'm not saying that Celsius is the more intuitive scale, just that both scales have their pitfalls, and you conveniently chose to ignore the ones of the Fahrenheit scale.

>>9140289
>Most people know what a 0 degrees F day feels like
>Most people know what a 100 degrees F day feels like
On the other hand a 0 degree C day isn't really that cold since it's literally just when water freezes (lel snow amirite) and no one on Earth has ever or will ever encounter anything even approaching a 200 degree F day (without fucking dieing)

>>9137763
lol no
what kind of country has snow that doesn't regularly dip below 0 degrees C? and how is 50 degrees C supposed to be a "base 10" max temperature? 0 - 100 degrees F is the closest to a base 10 friendly temperature system that also happens to correspond to the most common climates.

>>9141765
Knowing when water freezes is interesting since the roads start getting icy.

>>9141768
and roads get slippery when there is rain, or slush on it
its not a temperature thing, you just have to look at the road to know how fast you should let yourself drive

Celsius is easy as fug

zero and below is cold
20 is cozy
30 and more is hot
60 and more it hurts

>>9141763

>when you see a newscast say that a town is getting a negative 1 degrees celsius morning, do you put on a coat?
>no

I do put on a coat

when it is below zero I can expect ice and snow

it does not get more intuitive than that

every human being knows what temperature of water freezing feels like, it is probably the most universal temperature out there (except maybe for tropical countries)

whereas fahrenheit tells you nothing except "hur durr it felt cold to some historical person subjectively lol"

>>9141774
fahrenheit is even easier
0 and below is cold
10 - 30 is brisk
40 - 80 is the sweet spot
90 - 100 is toasty
above 100 is hot

>>9141765

>Most people know what a 0 degrees F day feels like
>Most people know what a 100 degrees F day feels like

only people who are used to fahrenheit scale know this

same as with celsius

>>9141777
>40 - 80 is the sweet spot
yeah most precise

>>9141777

there is nothing easier about that, the numbers are just different, not better or worse

in fact Id say it is kinda inferior because water freezing temperature is not a nice number

>>9141777
the number range is bigger, so it's actually not easier, but more difficult, e.g. for small children who dont know how to cound.

>>9141777

cold and hot are subjective terms that depend on where you live, ethnicity, and what weather you are used to

and you have to leave the house anyway, so it doesn't matter at all

>>9141777
there is no difference between 90 and 100
why do you need the 100 when the 90 is already hot
Fahrenheit makes no sense
it's not even precise, normal body temp is not even 100
why even use it then in the first place

>>9141791
dumbass, there is a difference between toasty and hot
90 isn't hot, its toasty

>>9141768
Most Americans know that water freezes at 32 degrees F because that's just common knowledge. There's also a lot of wiggle room and variables regarding bad road conditions (eg. if there was a blizzard recently then you can still have slush and freezing all over the streets even if the temperatures are above freezing). Similarly it can fall below freezing and you can have clean roads if you've had clean weather. It can also be dangerous to drive in heavy rain and in some communities with dirt roads stuff like rain/mud can be a big concern too.

tl;dr: Temperature isn't sufficient for knowing that the roads are bad and there are many faster, easier, and more effective ways to know that information.

>>9141778
Those temps are near the limit of normal people's experiences/tolerances.

>>9141811
Yes, but no one grows outside when the temperatures are dropping so low that they're stressing out your plants and causing them to flower early (happens long before reaching freezing temps).

Only a retard would suggest that being aware that you're near 0 degrees Celsius is a concern for garden people. Even if the temperatures dropped that far down due to freak weather, there isn't shit you can do.

Even then you have to make sure to add enough alcohol that it can hold out against the lowest temperatures you're likely to face. So you still have to know that temperature anyways (ie. 0 F).

>>9141840
My centimenters exactly but also why use grams as both a unit of weight and a unit of mass?

The only argument for Fahrenheit is that apparently it is more practical for everyday use, but such a *feeling* is completely subjective to the user.
Americans seem to have a problem with using Celsius just because they are not used to it. I personally feel the same with Fahrenheit, and I am very used to automatically think 0° is freezing cold, 10° is very cold, 20° is fresh, 30° is just fuck my shit up senpai. Meanwhile, Having all those numbers under 30°F seems like a waste of numbers, while having 100°F mean nothing more than "very hot" really means nothing.

On another note, Having different measurements for everyday life and science only alienates people from it and makes science more un-accessible to people. If you want to promote science you need to stop editing things for convenience and have people use their brains a bit more

Also, why have 2 different systems when you can have one?

Celcius marks the freezing point of water

Fahrenheit marks the point of internal body heat

Celcius also marks the boiling point of water

Fahrenheit marks the freezing point of... water with some salt in it?

Celsius has the same magnitude as Kelvin.

Everyone else uses celsius anyway.

So, why have a scientific and regular scale, when you can have a one-fits-all scale, with just as much sense, shared with everybody and with an extra useful pointer (boiling water)?

pro Fahrenheit for everyday use arguments be like

>"what it feels like" is a more useful metric than "my car will slide around under this value and my food is probably going to be safe to eat if it's been over the other value, let's put that range on a 0-100 scale"

fuck off. water freezing and water boiling is the only meaningful everyday metric. "what it feels like" is not a metric, it's a fucking feeling, and i don't give a fuck about the "but 100 deg F is the human body temperature" argument either because there's no meaningful context for that number so it's equally pointless.

Are you seriously arguing evolution when talking about temperature scales? How retarded are you (on the Kelvin scale, please)?

For millions of years, humans just went outside of their cave and if it was too cold for that particular person, they'd probably go back in and get a pelt or make fire. None of which is made easier (or harder) by any kind of temp scale.

How does that matter when most humans cannot even distinguish between 2°C difference in temperature? You're arguing for more precision yet at the same time argue it is "for humans" when in reality those exact humans cannot even "use" this higher precision.

You are not making a lot of sense.

Thank you for this picture.
Thank you, because I hate the original pic (pic related) with passion. It does not prove that imperial units are inferior, it merely proves that there are multiple imperial units.

...which would pretty much make it inferior for everyday use, in my opinion.
That aside, the imperial system has *one* unit
of length essentially, but their prefixes are not optimized for scaling in orders of magnitude, but for remainderless division, which is why they all have pretty prime factorizations. However, nobody needs that anymore, really. It just justifies why it looks so "strange".

Like if water was that important. If that's the only thing you have to say you better shut up.

also don't forget that Fahrenheit actual is culturally significant. many people have memories that revolve around a certain temperature.

65 degrees elicits feelings of fall. 40 is to early winter. -10f is that one really cold winter when you were a kid. 38 f is snow that is too sticky to sled on.

people actual have nostalgic connections to the temperature.

I have nostalgic feelings about 3.5 inch floppy disks, could we please continue to use those?

kek

>>9150613

comparing farenheight to celsius to a floppy disk and flash drive is retarded.

>>9149936
It's the point after which you can start having snow and shit, so it has a lot more practical meaning than fahrenheit's shit.

>>9151270
taking emotions and memories into account was even more retarded in the first place.

Thread.

Fucking burgers, swallow the fucking pill and adopt IS units, you stubborn autists.

While we're at it
>billion = 10^9
or
>billion = 10^12
Which one is better?

A year's worth of filenames created from the date.
Americans get the files ordered by date, everyone else gets all the 4ths of the month grouped together, followed by all the fifth of the months, etc.

>>9137541
Fully intending to be pedantic but the actual comparison should be between dollars and sterling. For another example look at Yuan and Renminbi.

>>9150631

do you support getting rid of the dozen and forcing people to buy things by the 10s instead?

zero degrees celcius is the freezing point for pure water found in a laboratory. How much different is the freezing point of real water found by real people in the real world?

>>9140340
23 C is equal to 73.4F

> Oh my god DECIMALS

So it isnt a fucking perfect conversion who the fuck gives a crap?

>M-m-muh fahrenheit
Shut the fuck up

>>9151541
WHAT is the Government NOT telling us?!

If celsius was actually a good system I wouldn't have to approximate the specific heat of water.

The only reason I like fahrenheit better is because there's more numbers which, yes, makes me "feel" better about it. From very hot to very cold is a huuuge change in both how my body feels and how the external world looks and operates; I want the numbers to reflect that, and bigger numbers help. There's too big, like if the numbers were in the hundreds or thousands, a lot of those single and double digit numbers would be useless. Fahrenheit is comfy I think.

Scientifically yeah C is better, but everyone is arguing about nostalgia and how one is intuitively better than the other. So if we're going to argue on

>muh feels

then I'd say bigger numbers intuitively feel better and more accurately represent the huge changes that happen with temperature. F has bigger numbers

In science though yeah why the fuck would you use F

>>9137518
>worse in every way than Fahrenheit for everyday use
I've lived more in the US than elsewhere and yet I find the opposite to be true.

>>9137552
This is not why. Literally nobody cares about the boiling point of water on an everyday basis, 40 is more relevant since that denotes "really hot".

>>9140832
>Rankine
>absolute
So it changes according to pressure?

>>9151842
>>Thinks it's hard to remember 32 is freezing and 212 is boiling
Get some fucking reading comprehension you piece of shit. Of course that's not hard to remember, but the celsius scale's choice for zero is the more logical choice, which those posters just ignored entirely.

>>9137518

In mexico we use 10^9 as "a thousand millions" which sounds silly

I bet you think that 25℃ is hot, you eskimo faggot

>>9151724
laboratory pure water isn't what we see around us, so we're not seeing water freezing until it gets lower than the magic zero celcius

its shit because its defined at 2 arbitrary points with a fuckton of conditions for a particular material . fehrenshit is exactly the same .

kelvin is less shit because its defined using one point which is singular for this material but shit because of the arbitrary choice of material .

temperature should only ever be measured using natural units (like velocity is converted from brainlet units to natural using v/c) . all temperature should be expressed as fractions of planck temperature so our temperature scale is not dependent on having access to or synthesizing dihydrogen monoxide .

it should be possible to send any textbook ot paper via radio to any system in the universe and given that the transmission is received the ayylmaos should be able to read it understand it and figure out the units .
