The only thing I still like Fahrenheit for is temperature. There’s a wider range for the human livable temperature, so you get more persision. For everything else metric all the way.
And yes, it’s 100% my American brain can’t figure it out in Celcius no matter how hard I try lmao. 10’s are chill, 20’s are nice, 30’s sind heiß. But in the end, I end up thinking Fahrenheit and going from there every time.
I understand this logic, but since growing up with Celcius I just can’t intuitively convert the numbers. If I find a recipe where the oven needs to be at 350 (or whatever, I don’t know Fahrenheit), I automatically Google or ask ChatGPT to convert 😂
Yup and that it wouldn’t be that useful for most people. It’d be a huge pain in the ass to reeducate the country too. Fools are proud. As long as the can buy milk they don’t care if it’s in liters or gallons.
I try to try to remember the conversions, but it’s tricky and tedious. Iirc a mile is about 2.2 kilometers. A foot is shockingly close to 1/3 of a meter. 28°C is 82°F.
I don’t care for the imperial system, I’m just forced to use it. Empires are bad in all forms.
So I was going to say that Fahrenheit has a better range of numbers to know when going from 68 is comfy to 70 is too warm, but 20c to 21c is basically exactly the same. Fuck your logic though, -50f is colder than -50c and that’s all I care about.
Also growing up with Celsius, I also don’t have any idea how temperatures in Fahrenheit should feel like. (except that 98°F is the human body temperature?) By the way, please don’t use ChatGPT for math stuff, not even for converting temperatures. It can be really wrong at times.
Which is why I think any argument between Celsius and Fahrenheit is completely arbitrary.
Like, the temperature that water melts and boils is completely dependant on pressure. If I follow a recipe I’ll use the temp they recommend. My computer’s heart gauge uses Celsius. I don’t need to know what it is in Fahrenheit to know if it’s overheating.

Aaaand that’s why Americans don’t want to switch~
So Americans reject logic because… feelings?
Get with the program, every other country historically used different ways of measuring things and eventually managed to make the switch.

With code interpreter it’s working well, and you can check the math.
Use wolfram alpha for math, it actually gives you the correct result.
Welcome to the club. I can’t even deal with recipes from other countries because I don’t have a kitchen scale lol
I HIGHLY recommend getting an inexpensive digital kitchen scale, and use recipes that give ingredients in weight.
What makes you think Farenheit is more precise for “human liveable” temperatures?
The temperature is the same. Regardless of which unit you use to document it in.

I am not familiar with fahrenheit, but celsius and kelvin allow for decimals. You can have as much precision as you like
I’m going to blow your mind, then.
Look up the human body temperature in Fahrenheit.
Turns out all ways of measuring temperature are linear and equally accurate. All of them have decimals.
I hoped ypu would have noted the sarcasm in the tone of my message. Of course every system has decimals.
