"Well what about all these things outside of this range people use in their daily life?"
LOL
I'm making the case that your "human environmental temperature" is a shit reason to pick Fahrenheit because we have all these things that surprisingly don't conform to it. So you'll have to go outside the 0-100 range anyway. So you won't get any "benefit" from it, even when the "benefit" was dubious to begin with.
Wait till you see international ovens and cooking manuals. It's gonna blow your mind.
It's better to pick the scale that does conform to it for the vast majority of applications, and then just deal with the others. Either by using C or just dealing with it. For every 1 time you need to deal with temps of your computer, you'll interact with the environmental temperature a thousand times. And neither C or F are inherently better for describing CPU temps.
Oh, I forgot to pull out my cooking manual. Yeah C is MUCH better.
I mean neither conforms very well, that's the whole point. And what's the deal with 0-100, why is that so beneficial in your opinion?
Well yeah, it was simply about the 0-100 thing.
Wait till you see the ovens. It's incredible. There's usually few temps you need to care about and it changes in 20 degree marks. Incredible, I know.
Wait til you learn that there are other things to do in life than bitch about temperature systems.
This would probably be more impactful if you didn't just jump into a discussion that didn't involve you to make this observation lol
I like how you respond to somebody saying you're bitching by bitching more. Continue crying about it by yourself, please.
You replied to me, unprompted. Can't go complaining I replied after that, that'd be silly
