Every day use means non engineer use.

If you are a scientist or engineer metric is better but if not, Fahrenheit is better imo
>>
>>35316780
>Fahrenheit is better imo
Nah, m8. For every day use the Celsius is better, for science/engineering Kelvin is beast.

Celsius is based on water:
>freezing = 0
>boiling = 100
It makes sense and is easy to understand the scale.
>>
>>35316814

I don't really see that desu senpai. If 100 is boiling and 0 is freezing then the increments that matter end up being too small (-15ish to 37). Plus anyone using Fahrenheit already knows 32 is freezing and 212 is boiling
>>
>>35316937
Both scales are completely arbitrary, so neither is better for everyday use. You can't tell the difference between 58F and 59F, so more increments don't mean anything

Americans don't use kcal, an American food label shows for example 50cal (when it is really 50kcal). That guy thought the other poster made a mistake and wanted to make fun of him.
>>

>That is correct though, just a weird way of separating the zeros. I don't get what you're implying.
Cal and and kcal are the same thing but cal is different.

1000cal = 1Cal =1kcal

Ameritards think 1kcal = 1000 Cal

DAILY REMINDER THAT ONE PLATE IN SHARIALAND IS 60KG

DAILY REMINDER THAT ONE PLATE IN FREEDOMLAND IS 135LBS

60KG=132LBS, NOT 135LBS

YUROPOORS WHO TELL YOU THEIR LIFTS IN PLATES ARE ACTUALLY LIFTING LESS THAN YOU THINK

FOR EXAMPLE:
ACKHMED HUSSEIN: Bro I deadlift "4pl8" ALLAH OOAGBAH
CHRISTOPHER COOK: I also deadlift 4pl8, how much weight are you really lifting though?
HUSSEIN: uhh uhh, 180kg? DEATH TO AMERICA
COOK: well you see, 180kg is only 396lbs, while 4pl8 is technically 405lbs. Sorry habeeb, but you're not as strong as me. Also fuck off, we're full.
HUSSEIN: *takes over Europe, bans gyms as they are haram*

>>35318134

>>
>>35318134
>DAILY REMINDER THAT ONE PLATE IN FREEDOMLAND IS 135LBS
The bar is 44lbs so he would be lifting 134lbs. It's ok though I know you Amerikeks always want to cheat a bit

Also most plates aren't even calibrated and don't really weigh 45lbs lmao

>>35317733
you're not totally right on that, but yeah we do some dumb shit

Base 10 measurements are way easier and more practical
Metric master race (SI master race but that could be a push)
>>
>>35318202
I know that.
But the shift becomes important in equations, and because 0K has a more scientific definition. Hence why Celsius is better for day-to-day and Kelvin is better for science/engineering.
>>
>>35316780
>Fahrenheit is better

Look chief it makes perfect sense.
We use the metric system for everything.

Unless you're measuring a persons weight because yanno a grown man is the size of 12 or 13 large rocks, just makes sense.

And of course land is still measured in acres, can't be messing with that urban planning you know.

Oh and Speed limits are in Miles per hour because ya know, safety.

Oh and when we describe temperature we flip flop between Fahrenheit and Celsius for dramatic effect.

Penis' are also measured in inches because fuck you if anything needs to be a universal constant it's that a dick is 6 inches

Oh and a horses height is measured in "hands" no idea why but everyone seems to be aware of this fact.

So yeaah, it's perfectly simple, get with it Americlaps!

>>35316260
this is America! We don't want your god damn commie metric system!
