    “Fahrenheit describes the level of comfort for a human. From coldest to warmest that you may experience outside.”

      It needs some adjustment. 0 is fine, but 68 should be the new 100. We shouldn’t have to exist in climates warmer than that.

      Europeans shaking and crying at the realization that the difference between 70° and 75° is more obvious and meaningful than 21.11° and 23.88°

        Americans shaking that 20-25C is more obvious than 68-77

        Above 30 you just complain 25-30 you wear shorts 20-25 you wear whatever 15-20 you wear a t shirt and jeans 10-15 you consider a light jacket or a long sleeve 5-10 you firmly wear the light jacket or long sleeve 0-5 you bring a heavier coat Below 0 you complain

        Beautiful 5 degree increments that perfectly describe what to wear in C Where with Fahrenheit you end up with weird numbers like 86 degrees

          I like that scale, but Ottawa exists: can you give us the various levels of lament from 0 down to -40 or -50?

          And is there a bonus wind scale to add to the suck?

            I tried going pretty general with the first one but my personal is between 0 to -5 I wear a coat -5 to -10 consider gloves -10 to -15 wear gloves -15 to -20 wear heavy gloves -20 to -30 wear glasses and a buff/mask -30 to -40 add glove liners and question why I live in a place that gets this cold Haven’t gone below -40 but I imagine it’s just complaining

        My brother in Christ. You are 70° water.

        And what is a Major factor in weather? Water.

          My brother in Christ

          Yikes.

          My brother in Satan, this is the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen on the fediverse. Your assumption that someone else is your brother in a superstition you were groomed into is offensive ignorant and regressive.

            Bro… It’s a reference to a meme about subway sandwiches. Literally “Brother in Christ” was written over a scribbled out n word. I think you’re being a little overly heated over a meme phrase.

              Can’t tell if serious.

              That’s how I feel about every Christian

              They say they’re Christian but don’t seem to like Christ.

              May our dark lord illuminate the path to enlightenment and freedom from the oppression of superstition. In his name we invoke power to ourselves, hail Satan.

                Okay, so you are serious.

                Dude, it’s a meme quote. OP is statistically very likely an atheist, since this is Lemmy.

                  I find it offensive

                  In the parlance of our time : it’s a micro-aggression

                  Like using “Jew” as a verb

                  This is lemmy shouldn’t we be more enlightened?
